f25c80a4b2 arch/um/drivers: remove duplicate structure field initialization
There are two initializations of ndo_set_mac_address, one to a local

if int(ps[0].line)<int(pr[0].line) or int(ps[0].column)<int(pr[0].column):

70d4bf6d46 drop_monitor: convert some kfree_skb call sites to consume_skb
Convert a few calls from kfree_skb to consume_skb

Noticed while I was working on dropwatch that I was detecting lots of internal
skb drops in several places.  While some are legitimate, several were not,
freeing skbs that were at the end of their life, rather than being discarded due
to an error.  This patch converts those calls sites from using kfree_skb to
consume_skb, which quiets the in-kernel drop_monitor code from detecting them as
drops.  Tested successfully by myself

573201f36f bridge: Partially disable netpoll support
The new netpoll code in bridging contains use-after-free bugs
that are non-trivial to fix.

This patch fixes this by removing the code that uses skbs after
they're freed.

As a consequence, this means that we can no longer call bridge
from the netpoll path, so this patch also removes the controller
function in order to disable netpoll.

e7c38157c6 ipv6: Make IP6CB(skb)->nhoff 16-bit.
Even with jumbograms I cannot see any way in which we would need
to records a larger than 65535 valued next-header offset.

The maximum extension header length is (256 << 3) == 2048.
There are only a handful of extension headers specified which
we'd even accept (say 5 or 6), therefore the largest next-header
offset we'd ever have to contend with is something less than
say 16k.

Therefore make it a u16 instead of a u32.

11848b9647 bnx2: Remove some unnecessary smp_mb() in tx fast path.
smp_mb() inside bnx2_tx_avail() is used twice in the normal
bnx2_start_xmit() path (see illustration below).  The full memory
barrier is only necessary during race conditions with tx completion.
We can speed up the tx path by replacing smp_mb() in bnx2_tx_avail()
with a compiler barrier.  The compiler barrier is to force the
compiler to fetch the tx_prod and tx_cons from memory.

In the race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int(),
we have the following situation:

bnx2_start_xmit()                       bnx2_tx_int()
    if (!bnx2_tx_avail())
            BUG();

    ...

    if (!bnx2_tx_avail())
            netif_tx_stop_queue();          update_tx_index();
            smp_mb();                       smp_mb();
            if (bnx2_tx_avail())            if (netif_tx_queue_stopped() &&
                    netif_tx_wake_queue();      bnx2_tx_avail())

With smp_mb() removed from bnx2_tx_avail(), we need to add smp_mb() to
bnx2_start_xmit() as shown above to properly order netif_tx_stop_queue()
and bnx2_tx_avail() to check the ring index.  If it is not strictly
ordered, the tx queue can be stopped forever.

This improves performance by about 5% with 2 ports running bi-directional
64-byte packets.

5e09d7f630 ixgbe: properly toggling netdev feature flags when disabling FCoE
When FCoE is disabled, there is a race condition that FCoE offload is
turned off but the FCoE protocol driver is still queuing I/O thinking
offload support still exists. This patch toggles off corresponding FCoE
netdev feature flags and notify the FCoE stack first, allowing FCoE
protocol stack driver to update its flags upon NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE so no
I/O will be using offload.

Also, indicate FCoE offload flags in vlan_features in ixgbe_probe once
and do not toggle them in ixgbe_fcoe_enable/disable so when FCoE is
created on the VLAN interface, vlan_transfer_features() would properly
update the VLAN netdev features flag and notify the FCoE protocol driver
for NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE.

c26875e2e1 s2io: Remove unnecessary memset of netdev private data
The memory for the private data is allocated using kzalloc in
alloc_etherdev (or alloc_netdev_mq respectively) so there is no need to
set it to 0 again.

c1f19b51d1 net: support time stamping in phy devices.
This patch adds a new networking option to allow hardware time stamps
from PHY devices. When enabled, likely candidates among incoming and
outgoing network packets are offered to the PHY driver for possible
time stamping. When accepted by the PHY driver, incoming packets are
deferred for later delivery by the driver.

The patch also adds phylib driver methods for the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl
and callbacks for transmit and receive time stamping. Drivers may
optionally implement these functions.

15f0127d1d net: added a BPF to help drivers detect PTP packets.
Certain kinds of hardware time stamping units in both MACs and PHYs have
the limitation that they can only time stamp PTP packets. Drivers for such
hardware are left with the task of correctly matching skbs to time stamps.
This patch adds a BPF that drivers can use to classify PTP packets when
needed.

28b041139e net: preserve ifreq parameter when calling generic phy_mii_ioctl().
The phy_mii_ioctl() function unnecessarily throws away the original ifreq.
We need access to the ifreq in order to support PHYs that can perform
hardware time stamping.

Two maverick drivers filter the ioctl commands passed to phy_mii_ioctl().
This is unnecessary since phylib will check the command in any case.

4507a71507 net: add driver hook for tx time stamping.
This patch adds a hook for transmit time stamps. The transmit hook
allows a software fallback for transmit time stamps, for MACs
lacking time stamping hardware. Using the hook will still require
adding an inline function call to each MAC driver.

ad1afb0039 vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)
- Without the 8021q module loaded in the kernel, all 802.1p packets 
(VLAN 0 but QoS tagging) are silently discarded (as expected, as 
the protocol is not loaded).
 
- Without this patch in 8021q module, these packets are forwarded to 
the module, but they are discarded also if VLAN 0 is not configured,
which should not be the default behaviour, as VLAN 0 is not really
a VLANed packet but a 802.1p packet. Defining VLAN 0 makes it almost
impossible to communicate with mixed 802.1p and non 802.1p devices on
the same network due to arp table issues.

- Changed logic to skip vlan specific code in vlan_skb_recv if VLAN 
is 0 and we have not defined a VLAN with ID 0, but we accept the 
packet with the encapsulated proto and pass it later to netif_rx.

- In the vlan device event handler, added some logic to add VLAN 0 
to HW filter in devices that support it (this prevented any traffic
in VLAN 0 to reach the stack in e1000e with HW filter under 2.6.35,
and probably also with other HW filtered cards, so we fix it here).

- In the vlan unregister logic, prevent the elimination of VLAN 0 
in devices with HW filter.

- The default behaviour is to ignore the VLAN 0 tagging and accept
the packet as if it was not tagged, but we can still define a 
VLAN 0 if desired (so it is backwards compatible).
