There are several exit path from the PCI probe function.
Some of them, that are taken in case of errors, forget to set the "err"
variable, that is returned by the probe function.
This can lead to the kernel thinking the probe function succeeds while it
didn't, and this in turn causes extra calls to the "remove" function.
This patch fix this problem by ensuring "err" variable is assigned to a proper
non-zero value in each exit path.

All boards supported by this driver could work using PIO or MMIO for accessing
registers.
This driver tries to access HW by using MMIO, and, if this fails for somewhat
reason, the driver tries to fall back to PIO mode.
MMIO-mode is straightforward on all boards.
PIO-mode is straightforward on rtl8180 only.
On rtl8185 and rtl8187se boards not all registers are directly available in PIO
mode (they are paged).
On rtl8185 there are two pages and it is known how to switch page.
PIO mode works, except for only one access to a register out of default page,
recently added by me in the initialization code with patch:
rtl818x_pci: Fix rtl8185 excessive IFS after CTS-to-self
This can be easily fixed to work in both cases (MMIO and PIO).
On rtl8187se, for a number of reasons, there is much more work to do to fix PIO
access.
PIO access is currently broken on rtl8187se, and it never worked.
This patch fixes the said register write for rtl8185 and makes the driver to
fail cleanly if PIO mode is attempted with rtl8187se boards.
While doing this, I converted also a couple of printk(KERN_ERR) to dev_err(), in
order to make checkpatch happy.

Currently the driver configures mac80211 to provide two rates for each TX frame:
One initial rate and one alternate fallback rate, each one with its retry count.
HW does not support fully this: rtl8180 doesn't have support for rate scaling at
all, and rtl8185/rtl8187SE supports it in a way that does not fit with mac80211:
The HW does automatically fall back to the next lower rate, and only a lower
limit can be specified, so the HW may TX also on rates in between the two rates
specified by mac80211. Furthermore only the total TX retry count can be
specified for each packet, while the number of TX attempts before scaling rate
can be configured only globally (not per each packet).
Currently the driver sets the HW auto rate fallback mechanism to quickly scale
rate after a couple of retries, and it uses the alternate rate requested by
mac80211 as fallback limit rate (and it does this even wrongly).
The HW indeed will behave differently than what mac80211 mandates, that is
probably undesirable, and the reported TX retry count may not refer to what
mac80211 thinks, and this could fool mac80211.
This patch makes the driver to declare to mac80211 to support only one rate
configuration for each packet, and it does disable the HW auto rate fallback
mechanism, relying only on SW and letting mac80211 to do all by itself.
This should ensure correct operation and fairness respect to mac80211.
Indeed here tests with iperf do not show significant performance differences.

HW is programmed with wrong retry count value for TX:
Mac80211 passes to driver the number of times the TX should be attempted.
The HW, instead, wants the number of time the TX should be retried if it fails
the first time (assuming we have to TX it at least one time).
This patch correct this.

Rtl8187se support has been added to the rtl818x_pci driver by extracting a lot
of information from a rtl8187se Linux staging driver included in the kernel at
the time rtl8187se support was added.
The rtl818x_pci main file has a comment that advertises this.
Recently this staging driver has been removed from the kernel, but I still feel
it can be useful as "reference" code (in case of bugs, or to implement
improvements in rtl818x_pci driver).
This one-line patch adds a comment in rtl818x_pci driver to point people
searching for that "reference code" to the last kernel version still containing

Measuring time between _end_ of CTS-to-self and _end_ of datapacket (with a
prism54 board and mac80211 hacked to let the MAC timestamp stay untouched in the
radiotap header) resulted in about 300uS, while the datapacket itself should be
by far shorter (less than 100uS) and IFS should be SIFS (10uS).
This measure was confirmed whith a scope: about 250uS IFS has been seen between
the two packets.
This situation causes the CTS-to-self protection mechanism to work incorrectly
due to the NAV expiring during, or even before beginning, the packet
transmission, and it also causes the performances to be anyway reduced due to
time waste.
This problem has been seen at every packet TXed with CTS-to-self enabled on
rtl8185 board.
rtl8187se seems not affected (and rtl8180, being a 802.11b card, does not have
CTS-to-self mechaninsm).
This patch fixes this by adding a magic register write, making the board wait
for correct SIFS after CTS-to-self packet.

tcp: remove code duplication in tcp_v[46]_conn_request
This patch series unifies the TCPv4 and TCPv6 connection request flow
in a single new function (tcp_conn_request).
The first 3 patches are small cleanups and fixes found during the code
merge process.
The next patches add new methods in tcp_request_sock_ops to abstract
the IPv4/IPv6 operations and keep the TCP connection request flow
common.
To identify potential performance issues this patch has been tested
by measuring the connection per second rate with nginx and a httperf
like client (to allow for concurrent connection requests - 256 CC were
used during testing) using the loopback interface. A dual-core i5 Ivy
Bridge processor was used and each process was bounded to a different
core to make results consistent.
Results for IPv4, unit is connections per second, higher is better, 20
measurements have been collected:

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-06-26
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Kamil provides a cleanup patch to i40e where we do not need to acquire the
NVM for shadow RAM checksum calculation, since we only read the shadow RAM
through SRCTL register.
Paul provides a fix for handling HMC for big endian architectures for i40e
and i40evf.
Mitch provides four cleanup and fixes for i40evf. Fix an issue where if
the VF driver fails to complete early init, then rmmod can cause a softlock
when the driver tries to stop a watchdog timer that never got initialized.
So add a check to see if the timer is actually initialized before stopping
it. Make the function i40evf_send_api_ver() return more useful information,
instead of just returning -EIO by propagating firmware errors back to the
caller and log a message if the PF sends an invalid reply. Fix up a log
message that was missing a word, which makes the log message more readable.
Fix an initialization failure if many VFs are instantiated at the same time
and the VF module is autoloaded by simply resending firmware request if
there is no response the first time.
Jacob does a rename of the function i40e_ptp_enable() to
i40e_ptp_feature_enable(), like he did for ixgbe, to reduce possible
confusion and ambugity in the purpose of the function. Does follow on
PTP work on i40e, like he did for ixgbe, by breaking the PTP hardware
control from the ioctl command for timestamping mode. By doing this,
we can maintain state about the 1588 timestamping mode and properly
re-enable to the last known mode during a re-initialization of 1588 bits.
Anjali cleans up the i40e driver where TCP-IPv4 filters were being added
twice, which seems to be left over from when we had to add two PTYPEs for
one filter. Fixes the flow director sideband logic to detect when there
is a full flow director table. Also fixes the programming of FDIR where
a couple of fields in the descriptor setup that were not being
programmed, which left the opportunity for stale data to be pushed as
part of the descriptor next time it was used.

tipc: new unicast transmission code
As a step towards making the data transmission code more maintainable
and performant, we introduce a number of new functions, both for
building, sending and rejecting messages. The new functions will
eventually be used for alla data transmission, user data unicast,
service internal messaging, and multicast/broadcast.
We start with this series, where we introduce the functions, and
let user data unicast and the internal connection protocol use them.
The remaining users will come in a later series.
There are only minor changes to data structures, and no protocol
changes, so the older functions can still be used in parallel for
some time. Until the old functions are removed, we use temporary
names for the new functions, such as tipc_build_msg2, tipc_link_xmit2.
It should be noted that the first two commits are unrelated to the
rest of the series.

As a consequence of the recently introduced serialized access
to the socket in commit 8d94168a761819d10252bab1f8de6d7b202c3baa
("tipc: same receive code path for connection protocol and data
messages") we can make a number of simplifications in the
detection and handling of connection congestion situations.
- We don't need to keep two counters, one for sent messages and one
for acked messages. There is no longer any risk for races between
acknowledge messages arriving in BH and data message sending
running in user context. So we merge this into one counter,
'sent_unacked', which is incremented at sending and subtracted
from at acknowledge reception.
- We don't need to set the 'congested' field in tipc_port to
true before we sent the message, and clear it when sending
is successful. (As a matter of fact, it was never necessary;
the field was set in link_schedule_port() before any wakeup
could arrive anyway.)
- We keep the conditions for link congestion and connection connection
congestion separated. There would otherwise be a risk that an arriving
acknowledge message may wake up a user sleeping because of link
congestion.
- We can simplify reception of acknowledge messages.
We also make some cosmetic/structural changes:
- We rename the 'congested' field to the more correct 'link_cong´.
- We rename 'conn_unacked' to 'rcv_unacked'
- We move the above mentioned fields from struct tipc_port to
struct tipc_sock.
