If port 0 of a 5717 serdes device powers down, it hides the phy from
port 1. This patch works around the problem by keeping port 0's phy
powered up.

Make CDC EEM recalculate the hard_mtu after adjusting the
hard_header_len.
Without this, usbnet adjusts the MTU down to 1494 bytes, and the host is
unable to receive standard 1500-byte frames from the device.
Tested with the Linux USB Ethernet gadget.

When a bonding device is configured with fail_over_mac=active,
we expect to see the MAC address of the new active slave as the source MAC
address after failover. But we see that the source MAC address is the MAC
address of previous active slave.
Emit NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event when bonding changes its MAC address, in order
to let arp_netdev_event flush neighbour cache and route cache.
How to reproduce this bug ?
-----------hostB----------------
hostA ----- switch ---|-- eth0--bond0(192.168.100.2/24)|
(192.168.100.1/24 \--|-- eth1-/ |
--------------------------------
1 on hostB,
modprobe bonding mode=1 miimon=500 fail_over_mac=active downdelay=1000
num_grat_arp=1
ifconfig bond0 192.168.100.2/24 up
ifenslave bond0 eth0
ifenslave bond0 eth1
then eth0 is the active slave, and MAC of bond0 is MAC of eth0.
2 on hostA, ping 192.168.100.2
3 on hostB,
tcpdump -i bond0 -p icmp -XXX
you will see bond0 uses MAC of eth0 as source MAC in icmp reply.
4 on hostB,
ifconfig eth0 down
tcpdump -i bond0 -p icmp -XXX (just keep it running in step 3)
you will see first bond0 uses MAC of eth1 as source MAC in icmp
reply, then it will use MAC of eth0 as source MAC.

The flow in which the bnx2x driver starts after a previous driver
has been terminated in an 'unclean' manner has several bugs and
FW risks, which makes it possible for the driver to fail after
boot-from-SAN or kdump.
This patch contains a revised flow which performs a safer
initialization, solving the possible crash scenarios.
Notice this patch contains lines with over 80 characters, as it
keeps print-strings in a single line.

In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207, slowdowns of driver
rtl8192ce are reported. One fix (commit a9b89e2) has already been applied,
and it helped, but the maximum RX speed would still drop to 1 Mbps. As in
the previous fix, the initial gain was determined to be the problem; however,
the problem arises from a setting of the gain when scans are started.
Driver rtl8192de also has the same code structure - this one is fixed as well.

When we have downlink traffic alone and the station is going thru
bgscan, the client is out of operating channel for around 1000ms which
is too long. The mac80211 decides when to switch back to oper channel
based on tx queue, bad latency and listen time. As the station does not
have tx traffic, the bgscan can easily affect downlink throughput. By
reducing the listen time, it helps the associated AP to retain the
downstream rate.

Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The
assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help
de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous
interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are
collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too
much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips
specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the
connection stability in congested networks.

The following patch aimed to resolve an issue where secondary, tertiary,
etc. addresses added to bond interfaces could overwrite the
bond->master_ip and vlan_ip values.

bonding: only use primary address for ARP
That patch was good because it prevented bonds using ARP monitoring from
sending frames with an invalid source IP address. Unfortunately, it
didn't always work as expected.
When using an ioctl (like ifconfig does) to set the IP address and
netmask, 2 separate ioctls are actually called to set the IP and netmask
if the mask chosen doesn't match the standard mask for that class of
address. The first ioctl did not have a mask that matched the one in
the primary address and would still cause the device address to be
overwritten. The second ioctl that was called to set the mask would
then detect as secondary and ignored, but the damage was already done.
This was not an issue when using an application that used netlink
sockets as the setting of IP and netmask came down at once. The
inconsistent behavior between those two interfaces was something that
needed to be resolved.
While I was thinking about how I wanted to resolve this, Ralf Zeidler
came with a patch that resolved this on a RHEL kernel by keeping a full
shadow of the entries in dev->ifa_list for the bonding device and vlan
devices in the bonding driver. I didn't like the duplication of the
list as I want to see the 'bonding' struct and code shrink rather than
grow, but liked the general idea.
As the Subject indicates this patch drops the master_ip and vlan_ip
elements from the 'bonding' and 'vlan_entry' structs, respectively.
This can be done because a device's address-list is now traversed to
determine the optimal source IP address for ARP requests and for checks
to see if the bonding device has a particular IP address. This code
could have all be contained inside the bonding driver, but it made more
sense to me to EXPORT and call inet_confirm_addr since it did exactly
what was needed.
I tested this and a backported patch and everything works as expected.
Ralf also helped with verification of the backported patch.
Thanks to Ralf for all his help on this.
v2: Whitespace and organizational changes based on suggestions from Jay
Vosburgh and Dave Miller.
v3: Fixup incorrect usage of rcu_read_unlock based on Dave Miller's
suggestion.

URB unlinking is always racing with its completion and tx_complete
may be called before or during running usb_unlink_urb, so tx_complete
must not clear urb->dev since it will be used in unlink path,
otherwise invalid memory accesses or usb device leak may be caused
inside usb_unlink_urb.

Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid
recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking
problem by releasing the skb queue lock, but it makes usb_unlink_urb
racing with defer_bh, and the URB to being unlinked may be freed before
or during calling usb_unlink_urb, so use-after-free problem may be
triggerd inside usb_unlink_urb.
The patch fixes the use-after-free problem by increasing URB
reference count with skb queue lock held before calling
usb_unlink_urb, so the URB won't be freed until return from
usb_unlink_urb.

When xen_emul_unplug=never is specified on kernel command line
reading files from /sys/hypervisor is broken (returns -EBUSY).
It is caused by xen_bus dependency on platform-pci and
platform-pci isn't initialized when xen_emul_unplug=never is
specified.
Fix it by allowing platform-pci to ignore xen_emul_unplug=never,
and do not intialize xen_[blk|net]front instead.
