Writes to u16 has a special handling on 3 PXA platforms, where the
hardware wiring forces these writes to be u32 aligned.
This patch isolates this handling for PXA platforms as before, but
enables this "workaround" to be set up dynamically, which will be the
case in device-tree build types.
This patch was tested on 2 PXA platforms : mainstone, which relies on
the workaround, and lubbock, which doesn't.

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

On some systems (such as the Qualcomm APQ8060 Dragonboard) the
RESET signal of the SMSC911x is not pulled up by a resistor (or
the internal pull-up that will pull it up if the pin is not
even connected) but instead connected to a GPIO line, so that
the operating system must explicitly deassert RESET before use.
Support this in the SMSC911x driver so this ethernet connector
can be used on such targets.
Notice that we request the line to go logical low (deassert)
whilst the line on the actual component is active low. This
is managed in the respective hardware description when
specifying the GPIO line with e.g. device tree or ACPI. With
device tree it looks like this in one case:
reset-gpios = <&tlmm 30 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
Which means that logically requesting the RESET line to be
deasserted will result in the line being driven high, taking
the device out of reset.

Commit b70661c708 ("net: smc91x: use run-time configuration on all ARM
machines") broke some ARM platforms through several mistakes. Firstly,
the access size must correspond to the following rule:
(a) at least one of 16-bit or 8-bit access size must be supported
(b) 32-bit accesses are optional, and may be enabled in addition to
the above.
Secondly, it provides no emulation of 16-bit accesses, instead blindly
making 16-bit accesses even when the platform specifies that only 8-bit
is supported.
Reorganise smc91x.h so we can make use of the existing 16-bit access
emulation already provided - if 16-bit accesses are supported, use
16-bit accesses directly, otherwise if 8-bit accesses are supported,
use the provided 16-bit access emulation. If neither, BUG(). This
exactly reflects the driver behaviour prior to the commit being fixed.
Since the conversion incorrectly cut down the available access sizes on
several platforms, we also need to go through every platform and fix up
the overly-restrictive access size: Arnd assumed that if a platform can
perform 32-bit, 16-bit and 8-bit accesses, then only a 32-bit access
size needed to be specified - not so, all available access sizes must
be specified.
This likely fixes some performance regressions in doing this: if a
platform does not support 8-bit accesses, 8-bit accesses have been
emulated by performing a 16-bit read-modify-write access.
Tested on the Intel Assabet/Neponset platform, which supports only 8-bit
accesses, which was broken by the original commit.

The commit breaks the legacy platforms, ie. these not using device-tree,
and setting up the interrupt resources with a flag to activate edge
detection. The issue was found on the zylonite platform.
The reason is that zylonite uses platform resources to pass the interrupt number
and the irq flags (here IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHEDGE). It expects the driver to
request the irq with these flags, which in turn setups the irq as high edge
triggered.
After the patch, this was supposed to be taken care of with :
irq_resflags = irqd_get_trigger_type(irq_get_irq_data(ndev->irq));
But irq_resflags is 0 for legacy platforms, while for example in
arch/arm/mach-pxa/zylonite.c, in struct resource smc91x_resources[] the
irq flag is specified. This breaks zylonite because the interrupt is not
setup as triggered, and hardware doesn't provide interrupts.

The smc91x driver traditionally gets configured at compile-time
for whichever hardware it runs on. This no longer works on
ARM as we continue to move to building all-in-one kernels.
Most ARM configurations with this driver already use run-time
configuration through DT or through platform_data, but a
few have not been converted yet.
I've checked all ARM boards that use this driver in their
legacy board files, and converted the ones that were using
compile-time configuration in smc91x.h to behave like the
other ones and provide the interrupt polarity along with
the MMIO configuration (width, stride) at platform device
creation time.
In particular, these combinations were previously selectable
in Kconfig but in fact broken:
- sa1100 assabet plus pleb
- msm combined with any other armv6/v7 platform
- pxa-idp combined with any non-DMA pxa variant
- LogicPD PXA270 combined with any other pxa
- nomadik combined with any other armv4/v5 platform,

None of these seem critical enough to warrant a backport

The smc91x driver tries to support multiple platforms at compile
time, but they are mutually exclusive at runtime, and not clearly
defined.
Trying to build for CONFIG_SA1100_ASSABET without CONFIG_ASSABET_NEPONSET
results in this link error:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `smc_drv_probe':
:(.text+0x33310c): undefined reference to `neponset_ncr_frob'
since the neponset_ncr_set function is not defined otherwise.
Similarly, building for both CONFIG_SA1100_ASSABET and CONFIG_SA1100_PLEB
results in a different build error:
smsc/smc91x.c: In function 'smc_drv_probe':
smsc/smc91x.c:2299:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'neponset_ncr_set' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
neponset_ncr_set(NCR_ENET_OSC_EN);
^
smsc/smc91x.c:2299:19: error: 'NCR_ENET_OSC_EN' undeclared (first use in this function)
neponset_ncr_set(NCR_ENET_OSC_EN);
^
This is an attempt to fix the call site responsible for both
errors, making sure we call the function exactly when the driver
is actually trying to run on the assabet/neponset machine. With
this patch, I no longer see randconfig build errors in this file.

Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1.
They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform
drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just
removing a line in a structure.
Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are
some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by
the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.
Everything has been in linux-next for a while.

Add minimal runtime PM support (enable on probe, disable on remove), to
ensure proper operation with a parent device that uses runtime PM.
This is needed on systems where the external bus controller module of
the SoC is contained in a PM domain and/or has a gateable functional
clock. In such cases, before accessing any device connected to the
external bus, the PM domain must be powered up, and/or the functional
clock must be enabled, which is typically handled through runtime PM by
the bus controller driver.
An example of this is the kzm9g development board, where an smsc9220
Ethernet controller is connected to the Bus State Controller (BSC) of a
Renesas sh73a0 SoC.

With commit be9dad1f9f ("net: phy: suspend phydev when going
to HALTED"), the PHY device will be put in a low-power mode using
BMCR_PDOWN if the the interface is set down. The smsc911x driver does
a software_reset opening the device driver (ndo_open). In such case,
the PHY must be powered-up before access to any register and before
calling the software_reset function. Otherwise, as the PHY is powered
down the software reset fails and the interface can not be enabled
again.
This patch fixes this scenario that is easy to reproduce setting down
the network interface and setting up again.

Increased delay in the smsc911x_phy_disable_energy_detect (from 1ms to 2ms).
Dropped delays in the smsc911x_phy_enable_energy_detect (100ms and 1ms).
The patch affect SMSC LAN generation 4 chips with integrated PHY (LAN9221).
I saw problems with soft reset due to wrong udelay timings.
After I fixed udelay, I measured the time needed to bring integrated PHY
from power-down to operational mode (the time beetween clearing EDPWRDOWN
bit and soft reset complete event). I got 1ms (measured using ktime_get).
The value is equal to the current value (1ms) used in the
smsc911x_phy_disable_energy_detect. It is near the upper bound and in order
to avoid rare soft reset faults it is doubled (2ms).
I don't know official timing for bringing up integrated PHY as specs doesn't
clarify this (or may be I didn't found).
It looks safe to drop delays before and after setting EDPWRDOWN bit
(enable PHY power-down mode). I didn't saw any regressions with the patch.

The patch affect SMSC LAN generation 4 chips with integrated PHY (LAN9221).
It is possible that PHY could enter power-down mode (ENERGYON clear),
between ENERGYON bit check in smsc911x_phy_disable_energy_detect and SRST
bit set in smsc911x_soft_reset. This could happen, for example, if someone
disconnect ethernet cable between the checks. The PHY in a power-down mode
would prevent the MAC portion of chip to be software reseted.
Initially found by code review, confirmed later using test case.
This is low probability issue, and in order to reproduce it you have to
run the script:
while true; do
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 up || break
done
While the script is running you have to plug/unplug ethernet cable many
times (using gpio controlled ethernet switch, for example) until get:

The SMC91x is written to explicitly look up the IRQ resource
from the platform device and extract the IRQ and flags, however
the platform_get_irq() does additional things, like call
of_irq_get() in the device tree case, which will translate
the IRQ using the irqdomain and defer the probe if the
IRQ host cannot be found.
As we're not looking up the resource, this will not retrieve
the IRQ flags, but that is better done using
irqd_get_trigger_type(), as the trigger is what the driver
wants to modify. We take care to preserve the semantics that
will make the trigger type provided from the resource
override any local specifier.
Tested on the Nomadik NHK15 which has its SMC91x IRQ line
connected to a STMPE2401 GPIO expander on I2C.

With legacy booting, the platform init code was taking care of
the configuring of GPIOs. With device tree based booting, things
may or may not work depending what bootloader has configured or
if the legacy platform code gets called.
Let's add support for the pwrdn and reset GPIOs to the smc91x
driver to fix the issues of smc91x not working properly when
booted in device tree mode.
And let's change n900 to use these settings as some versions
of the bootloader do not configure things properly causing
errors.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware
firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.
At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
(arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.
Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and
therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
byte codes to do such lookups.
Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.
Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation,
one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
this is very expensive.
Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
new stuff.
Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
worked so hard on this.
2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.
In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
cases are added.
3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
and Yang Yingliang.
4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
Sujir.
5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.
6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
From Francesco Fusco.
7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn
Bohrer.
10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able
to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet.
11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang
Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
Falico.
12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental
operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.
Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
our generic flow dissector.
14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned
up in this way, from Jingoo Han.
15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel
Borkmann.
17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
(re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang.
