There's no reason why l2_set_mac_address() should ever be called for
a netdevice that's not owned by qeth. It's certainly not required for
VLAN devices, which have their own netdev_ops.
Also:
1) we don't do such validation for any of the other netdev_ops routines.
2) the code in question clearly has never been actually exercised;
it's broken. After determining that the device is not owned
by qeth, it would still use dev->ml_priv to write a qeth trace entry.
Remove the check, and its helper that walked the global card list.

HiperSockets allow configuring so called VNIC Characteristics (VNICC)
that influence how the underlying hardware handles packets. For VNICCs,
additional commands for getting and setting timeouts are available.
Currently, the learning VNICC uses these commands.
* Learning VNICC: If learning is enabled on a qeth device, the device
learns the source MAC addresses of outgoing packets and incoming
packets to those learned MAC addresses are received.
For learning, the timeout specifies the idle period in seconds, after
which the underlying hardware removes a learned MAC address again.
This patch adds support for the IPA commands that are required to get
and set the current timeout values for the learning VNIC characteristic.
Also, it introduces the sysfs interface that allows users to configure
the timeout.

HiperSocket devices allow enabling and disabling so called VNIC
Characteristics (VNICC) that influence how the underlying hardware
handles packets. These VNICCs are:
* Flooding VNICC: Flooding allows specifying if packets to unknown
destination MAC addresses are received by the qeth device.
* Multicast flooding VNICC: Multicast flooding allows specifying if
packets to multicast MAC addresses are received by the qeth device.
* Learning VNICC: If learning is enabled on a qeth device, the device
learns the source MAC addresses of outgoing packets and incoming
packets to those learned MAC addresses are received.
* Takeover setvmac VNICC: If takeover setvmac is configured on a qeth
device, the MAC address of this device can be configured on a
different qeth device with the setvmac IPA command.
* Takeover by learning VNICC: If takeover learning is enabled on a qeth
device, the MAC address of this device can be learned (learning VNICC)
on a different qeth device.
* BridgePort invisible VNICC: If BridgePort invisible is enabled on a
qeth device, (1) packets from this device are not sent to a BridgePort
enabled qeth device and (2) packets coming from a BridgePort enabled
qeth device are not received by this device.
* Receive broadcast VNICC: Receive broadcast allows configuring if a
qeth device receives packets with the broadcast destination MAC
address.
This patch adds support for the IPA commands that are required to enable
and disable these VNIC characteristics on qeth devices. As a
prerequisite, it also adds the query commands IPA command.
The query commands IPA command allows requesting the supported commands
for each characteristic from the underlying hardware.
Additionally, this patch provides users with a sysfs user interface to
enable/disable the VNICCs mentioned above.

VNIC Characteristics (VNICC) are features of HiperSockets that define
how packets are handled by the underlying network hardware. For example,
if the VNICC flooding is configured on a qeth device, ethernet frames to
unknown destination MAC addresses are received.
Currently, there is support for seven VNICCs: flooding, multicast
flooding, receive broadcast, learning, takeover learning, takeover
setvmac, bridge invisible. Also, six IPA commands exist for configuring
VNICCs on a qeth device: query characteristics, query commands, enable
characteristic, disable characteristic, set timeout, get timeout.
This patch adds the basic code infrastructure for VNICC support to qeth.
It allows querying VNICC support from the underlying hardware. To this
end, it adds:
* basic message formats for IPA commands
* basic data structures
* basic error handling
* query characteristics IPA command support
The query characteristics IPA command allows requesting the currently
supported and currently enabled VNIC characteristics from the underlying
hardware.
Support for the other IPA commands and for the configuration of VNICCs
is added in follow-up patches together with the respective user

Taking a full copy via skb_realloc_headroom() on every xmit is overkill
and wastes CPU time; all we actually need is to push on the qeth_hdr.
So rework the L2 OSA TX path to avoid the copy.
Minor complications arise because struct qeth_hdr must not cross a page
boundary. So add a new helper qeth_push_hdr() that catches this, and
falls back to the hdr cache that we already use for IQDs.
This change uncovered that qeth's TX completion takes rather long.
Now that we no longer free the original skb straight away and thus call
skb->destructor later than before, throughput regresses significantly.
For now, restore old behaviour by adding an explicit skb_orphan(),

commit b4d72c08b3 ("qeth: bridgeport support - basic control")
broke the support for OSM and OSN devices as follows:
As OSM and OSN are L2 only, qeth_core_probe_device() does an early
setup by loading the l2 discipline and calling qeth_l2_probe_device().
In this context, adding the l2-specific bridgeport sysfs attributes
via qeth_l2_create_device_attributes() hits a BUG_ON in fs/sysfs/group.c,
since the basic sysfs infrastructure for the device hasn't been
established yet.
Note that OSN actually has its own unique sysfs attributes
(qeth_osn_devtype), so the additional attributes shouldn't be created
at all.
For OSM, add a new qeth_l2_devtype that contains all the common
and l2-specific sysfs attributes.
When qeth_core_probe_device() does early setup for OSM or OSN, assign
the corresponding devtype so that the ccwgroup probe code creates the
full set of sysfs attributes.
This allows us to skip qeth_l2_create_device_attributes() in case
of an early setup.
Any device that can't do early setup will initially have only the
generic sysfs attributes, and when it's probed later
qeth_l2_probe_device() adds the l2-specific attributes.
If an early-setup device is removed (by calling ccwgroup_ungroup()),
device_unregister() will - using the devtype - delete the
l2-specific attributes before qeth_l2_remove_device() is called.
So make sure to not remove them twice.
What complicates the issue is that qeth_l2_probe_device() and
qeth_l2_remove_device() is also called on a device when its
layer2 attribute changes (ie. its layer mode is switched).
For early-setup devices this wouldn't work properly - we wouldn't
remove the l2-specific attributes when switching to L3.
But switching the layer mode doesn't actually make any sense;
we already decided that the device can only operate in L2!
So just refuse to switch the layer mode on such devices. Note that
OSN doesn't have a layer2 attribute, so we only need to special-case
OSM.

Depending on the device type, hard_start_xmit() builds different output
buffer formats. For instance with HiperSockets, on both L2 and L3 we
strip the ETH header from the skb - L3 doesn't need it, and L2 carries
it in the buffer's header element.
For this, we pass data_offset = ETH_HLEN all the way down to
__qeth_fill_buffer(), where skb->data is then adjusted accordingly.
But the initial size calculation still considers the *full* skb length
(including the ETH header). So qeth_get_elements_no() can erroneously
reject a skb as too big, even though it would actually fit into an
output buffer once the ETH header has been trimmed off later.
Fix this by passing an additional offset to qeth_get_elements_no(),
that indicates where in the skb the on-wire data actually begins.
Since the current code uses data_offset=-1 for some special handling
on OSA, we need to clamp data_offset to 0...
On HiperSockets this helps when sending ~MTU-size skbs with weird page
alignment. No change for OSA or AF_IUCV.

When skb data touches too many pages, skb_linearize() is called
