2016-10-20net/ncsi: Improve HNCDSC AEN handlerGavin Shan
This improves AEN handler for Host Network Controller Driver Status Change (HNCDSC): * The channel's lock should be hold when accessing its state. * Do failover when host driver isn't ready. * Configure channel when host driver becomes ready.

2016-10-04net/ncsi: Avoid unused-value build warning from ia64-linux-gccGavin Shan
xchg() is used to set NCSI channel's state in order for consistent access to the state. xchg()'s return value should be used. Otherwise, one build warning will be raised (with -Wunused-value) as below message indicates. It is reported by ia64-linux-gcc (GCC) 4.9.0. net/ncsi/ncsi-manage.c: In function 'ncsi_channel_monitor': arch/ia64/include/uapi/asm/cmpxchg.h:56:2: warning: value computed is \ not used [-Wunused-value] ((__typeof__(*(ptr))) __xchg((unsigned long) (x), (ptr), sizeof(*(ptr)))) ^ net/ncsi/ncsi-manage.c:202:3: note: in expansion of macro 'xchg' xchg(&nc->state, NCSI_CHANNEL_INACTIVE); This removes the atomic access to NCSI channel's state avoid the above build warning. We have to hold the channel's lock when its state is readed or updated. No functional changes introduced.

2016-07-19net/ncsi: NCSI AEN packet handlerGavin Shan
This introduces NCSI AEN packet handlers that result in (A) the currently active channel is reconfigured; (B) Currently active channel is deconfigured and disabled, another channel is chosen as active one and configured. Case (B) won't happen if hardware arbitration has been enabled, the channel that was in active state is suspended simply.
