FLOWI_FLAG_CAN_SLEEP was used to notify xfrm about the posibility
to sleep until the needed states are resolved. This code is gone,
so FLOWI_FLAG_CAN_SLEEP is not needed anymore.

We now queue packets to the policy if the states are not yet resolved,
this replaces the ancient sleeping code. Also the sleeping can cause
indefinite task hangs if the needed state does not get resolved.

By semantics, xfrm layer is fully name space aware,
so will the locks, e.g. xfrm_state/pocliy_lock.
Ensure exclusive access into state/policy link list
for different name space with one global lock is not
right in terms of semantics aspect at first place,
as they are indeed mutually independent with each
other, but also more seriously causes scalability
problem.
One practical scenario is on a Open Network Stack,
more than hundreds of lxc tenants acts as routers
within one host, a global xfrm_state/policy_lock
becomes the bottleneck. But onces those locks are
decoupled in a per-namespace fashion, locks contend
is just with in specific name space scope, without
causing additional SPD/SAD access delay for other
name space.
Also this patch improve scalability while as without
changing original xfrm behavior.

xfrm code always searches for unused policy index for
newly created policy regardless whether or not user
space policy index hint supplied.
This patch enables such feature so that using
"ip xfrm ... index=xxx" can be used by user to set
specific policy index.
Currently this beahvior is broken, so this patch make
it happen as expected.

When running in a network namespace whose only link to the outside
world is a macvlan device, not being able to create a macvtap off of
it is a real pain.
So modify macvtap creation to automatically forward a creation of a
macvtap on a macvlan to become a creation of a macvtap on the
underlying network device, just like is currently done with
macvlan-on-macvlan devices.
v2: Use netif_is_macvlan and macvlan_dev_real_dev helpers to make it
more clear what we're doing.

John W. Linville says:
====================
Please pull this batch of fixes intende for the 3.13 stream!
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"For now I have various fixes all over, mostly for issues introduced in
relatively recent patches. There's no real pattern to it. Some of the
issues like go back longer, but still seemed 3.13 material."
And...
"These are just two patches disabling the broken CSA code. Once this
goes into your tree I'll merge it into mac80211-next and revert there
(since we fixed the bugs there)."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"I have here a few fixes for BT Coex. One of them is a NULL pointer
dereference. Another one avoids to enable a feature that can make the
firmware unhappy since the firmware isn't ready for it yet. WE also
avoid a WARNING that can be triggered upon association in not-so-bad
cases even if the association succeeded. We add support for new NICs
(not yet on the market) and bump the API so that 3.13 will be able to
work with the new firmware that will be out soon hopefully.
I also have a boundary check from Johannes."
In addition to those...
- Arend van Spriel fixes a brcmfmac problem that could use an
uninitialized variable in an error path.
- Borislav Petkov fixes a Kconfig-based build breakage problem for
brcmsmac.
- Michal Nazarewicz fixes a couple of NULL pointer dereference problems
in ath9k and wcn36xx.
- Sujith Manoharan fixes a couple of ath9k problems related to
incorrect interpretation of EEPROM configuration data.
- Ujjal Roy fixes a memory leak in mwifiex.

====================
Fixes T5 adapter init, due to incorrect FW version check
This patch series fixes, Chelsio T5 adapter initialization failure due to
incorrect firmware version check. This patch series modifies the firmware
flashing mechanism for T4/T5 adapter.
The patch series moves chip type from struct adapter to struct adapter_params.
It changes the references of chip type in cxgb4 and cxgb4vf drivers such that
build failure is avoided.
Patch 3/3 is dependent on patch 1/3
Patch 2/3 is also dependent on patch 1/3
We would like to request this patch series to get merged via David Miller's
'net' tree.
We have included all the maintainers of respective drivers. Kindly review the
change and let us know in case of any review comments.

After congestion update on a local connection, when rds_ib_xmit returns
less bytes than that are there in the message, rds_send_xmit calls
back rds_ib_xmit with an offset that causes BUG_ON(off & RDS_FRAG_SIZE)
to trigger.
For a 4Kb PAGE_SIZE rds_ib_xmit returns min(8240,4096)=4096 when actually
the message contains 8240 bytes. rds_send_xmit thinks there is more to send
and calls rds_ib_xmit again with a data offset "off" of 4096-48(rds header)
=4048 bytes thus hitting the BUG_ON(off & RDS_FRAG_SIZE) [RDS_FRAG_SIZE=4k].
The commit 6094628bfd94323fc1cea05ec2c6affd98c18f7f
"rds: prevent BUG_ON triggering on congestion map updates" introduced
this regression. That change was addressing the triggering of a different
BUG_ON in rds_send_xmit() on PowerPC architecture with 64Kbytes PAGE_SIZE:
BUG_ON(ret != 0 &&
conn->c_xmit_sg == rm->data.op_nents);
This was the sequence it was going through:
(rds_ib_xmit)
/* Do not send cong updates to IB loopback */
if (conn->c_loopback
&& rm->m_inc.i_hdr.h_flags & RDS_FLAG_CONG_BITMAP) {
rds_cong_map_updated(conn->c_fcong, ~(u64) 0);
return sizeof(struct rds_header) + RDS_CONG_MAP_BYTES;
}
rds_ib_xmit returns 8240
rds_send_xmit:
c_xmit_data_off = 0 + 8240 - 48 (rds header accounted only the first time)
= 8192
c_xmit_data_off < 65536 (sg->length), so calls rds_ib_xmit again
rds_ib_xmit returns 8240
rds_send_xmit:
c_xmit_data_off = 8192 + 8240 = 16432, calls rds_ib_xmit again
and so on (c_xmit_data_off 24672,32912,41152,49392,57632)
rds_ib_xmit returns 8240
On this iteration this sequence causes the BUG_ON in rds_send_xmit:
while (ret) {
tmp = min_t(int, ret, sg->length - conn->c_xmit_data_off);
[tmp = 65536 - 57632 = 7904]
conn->c_xmit_data_off += tmp;
[c_xmit_data_off = 57632 + 7904 = 65536]
ret -= tmp;
[ret = 8240 - 7904 = 336]
if (conn->c_xmit_data_off == sg->length) {
conn->c_xmit_data_off = 0;
sg++;
conn->c_xmit_sg++;
BUG_ON(ret != 0 &&
conn->c_xmit_sg == rm->data.op_nents);
[c_xmit_sg = 1, rm->data.op_nents = 1]
What the current fix does:
Since the congestion update over loopback is not actually transmitted
as a message, all that rds_ib_xmit needs to do is let the caller think
the full message has been transmitted and not return partial bytes.
It will return 8240 (RDS_CONG_MAP_BYTES+48) when PAGE_SIZE is 4Kb.
And 64Kb+48 when page size is 64Kb.

xenvif_start_xmit() relies on checking vif->task for NULL to determine
whether the vif is ready to accept packets. The task thread is stopped in
xenvif_disconnect() but task is not set to NULL. Thus, on a re-connect the
check will give a false positive.
Also since commit ea732dff5cfa10789007bf4a5b935388a0bb2a8f (Handle backend
state transitions in a more robust way) it should not be possible for
xenvif_connect() to be called if the vif is already connected so change the
check of vif->tx_irq to a BUG_ON() and also add a BUG_ON(vif->task).

This reverts commit 018c5bba052b3a383d83cf0c756da0e7bc748397.
It causes regressions for people using chips driven by the sungem
driver. Suspicion is that the skb->csum value isn't being adjusted
properly.
The change also has a bug in that if __pskb_trim() fails, we'll leave
a corruped skb->csum value in there. We would really need to revert
it to it's original value in that case.

The behaviour of blackhole and prohibit routes has been corrected by setting
the input and output pointers of the dst variable appropriately. For
blackhole routes, they are set to dst_discard and to ip6_pkt_discard and
ip6_pkt_discard_out respectively for prohibit routes.
ipv6: ip6_pkt_prohibit(_out) should not depend on
CONFIG_IPV6_MULTIPLE_TABLES
We need ip6_pkt_prohibit(_out) available without
CONFIG_IPV6_MULTIPLE_TABLES

On tx submit the driver always dma_map_single() FEC_ENET_TX_FRSIZE (=2048)
bytes. This works because we don't overwrite any memory after the data buffer,
we remove it from cache if it was there. So we hurt performace in case the
mapping of a smaller area makes a difference.
There is also a bug: If the data area starts shortly before the end of
RAM say 0xc7fffa10 and the RAM ends at 0xc8000000 then we have enough
space to fit the data area (according to skb->len) but we would map beyond
end of ram if we are using 2048. In v2.6.31 (against which kernel this patch
made) there is the following check in dma_cache_maint():
|BUG_ON(!virt_addr_valid(start) || !virt_addr_valid(start + size - 1));
Since the area starting at 0xc8000000 is no longer virt_addr_valid() we
BUG() during dma_map_single(). The BUG() statement was removed in v3.5-rc1 as
per 2dc6a016 ("ARM: dma-mapping: use asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h").
This patch was tested on v2.6.31 and then forward-ported and compile
tested only against the net tree. I think it is still worth fixing
mainline even after the BUG() statement is gone.

Modify tg3_chip_reset() and tg3_close() to check if the PCI network
adapter device is accessible at all in order to skip poking it or
trying to handle a carrier loss in vain when that's not the case.
Introduce a special PCI helper function pci_device_is_present()
for this purpose.
Of course, this uncovers the lack of the appropriate RTNL locking
in tg3_suspend() and tg3_resume(), so add that locking in there
too.
These changes prevent tg3 from burning a CPU at 100% load level for
solid several seconds after the Thunderbolt link is disconnected from
a Matrox DS1 docking station.

The pipe code was trying (and failing) to be very careful about freeing
the pipe info only after the last access, with a pattern like:
spin_lock(&inode->i_lock);
if (!--pipe->files) {
inode->i_pipe = NULL;
kill = 1;
}
spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock);
__pipe_unlock(pipe);
if (kill)
free_pipe_info(pipe);
where the final freeing is done last.
HOWEVER. The above is actually broken, because while the freeing is
done at the end, if we have two racing processes releasing the pipe
inode info, the one that *doesn't* free it will decrement the ->files
count, and unlock the inode i_lock, but then still use the
"pipe_inode_info" afterwards when it does the "__pipe_unlock(pipe)".
This is *very* hard to trigger in practice, since the race window is
very small, and adding debug options seems to just hide it by slowing
things down.
Simon originally reported this way back in July as an Oops in
kmem_cache_allocate due to a single bit corruption (due to the final
"spin_unlock(pipe->mutex.wait_lock)" incrementing a field in a different
allocation that had re-used the free'd pipe-info), it's taken this long
to figure out.
Since the 'pipe->files' accesses aren't even protected by the pipe lock
(we very much use the inode lock for that), the simple solution is to
just drop the pipe lock early. And since there were two users of this
pattern, create a helper function for it.
Introduced commit ba5bb147330a ("pipe: take allocation and freeing of
pipe_inode_info out of ->i_mutex").

channel switch is triggered as well. This should only be allowed on
devices which actually support channel switches, otherwise disconnect.
(For the corresponding userspace invocation, the wiphy flag is checked
in nl80211).

The channel switch announcement code has some major locking problems
which can cause a deadlock in worst case. A series of fixes has been
proposed, but these are non-trivial and need to be tested first.
Therefore disable CSA completely for 3.13.

This check is not necessary for any purpose, and might put
the driver into an infinite loop.

commit a553e4a6317b2cfc7659542c10fe43184ffe53da ("[PKTGEN]: IPSEC support")
tried to support IPsec ESP transport transformation for pktgen, but acctually
this doesn't work at all for two reasons(The orignal transformed packet has
bad IPv4 checksum value, as well as wrong auth value, reported by wireshark)
- After transpormation, IPv4 header total length needs update,
because encrypted payload's length is NOT same as that of plain text.
- After transformation, IPv4 checksum needs re-caculate because of payload
has been changed.
With this patch, armmed pktgen with below cofiguration, Wireshark is able to
decrypted ESP packet generated by pktgen without any IPv4 checksum error or
auth value error.

Eric Dumazet noticed that if we encounter an error
when processing a mergeable buffer, we don't
dequeue all of the buffers from this packet,
the result is almost sure to be loss of networking.
Jason Wang noticed that we also leak a page and that we don't decrement
the rq buf count, so we won't repost buffers (a resource leak).
Fix both issues.

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"Some ARM fixes, the biggest of which is the fix for the signal return
codes; this came up due to an interaction between the V7M nommu
changes and the BE8 changes. Dave Martin spotted that the kexec
trampoline wasn't being correctly copied (in a way which allows
Thumb-2 to work).
I've also fixed a number of breakages on footbridge platforms as I've
upgraded one of my machines to v3.12... one which had a 1200 day
uptime"
* 'fixes' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm:

On UML SUBARCH can be x86, x86_64 and i386 and if it is x86
we use uname -m to select a defconfig.
Therefore we can no longer use -mcmodel=large only if SUBARCH
is x86_64.

Currently mx53 (CortexA8) running at 1GHz reports:
Calibrating delay loop... 663.55 BogoMIPS (lpj=3317760)
Tom Evans verified that alignments of 0x0 and 0x8 run the two instructions of __loop_delay in one clock cycle (1 clock/loop), while alignments of 0x4 and 0xc take 3 clocks to run the loop twice. (1.5 clock/loop)
The original object code looks like this:
00000010 <__loop_const_udelay>:
10: e3e01000 mvn r1, #0
14: e51f201c ldr r2, [pc, #-28] ; 0 <__loop_udelay-0x8>
18: e5922000 ldr r2, [r2]
1c: e0800921 add r0, r0, r1, lsr #18
20: e1a00720 lsr r0, r0, #14
24: e0822b21 add r2, r2, r1, lsr #22
28: e1a02522 lsr r2, r2, #10
2c: e0000092 mul r0, r2, r0
30: e0800d21 add r0, r0, r1, lsr #26
34: e1b00320 lsrs r0, r0, #6
38: 01a0f00e moveq pc, lr
0000003c <__loop_delay>:
3c: e2500001 subs r0, r0, #1
40: 8afffffe bhi 3c <__loop_delay>
44: e1a0f00e mov pc, lr
After adding the 'align 3' directive to __loop_delay (align to 8 bytes):
00000010 <__loop_const_udelay>:
10: e3e01000 mvn r1, #0
14: e51f201c ldr r2, [pc, #-28] ; 0 <__loop_udelay-0x8>
18: e5922000 ldr r2, [r2]
1c: e0800921 add r0, r0, r1, lsr #18
20: e1a00720 lsr r0, r0, #14
24: e0822b21 add r2, r2, r1, lsr #22
28: e1a02522 lsr r2, r2, #10
2c: e0000092 mul r0, r2, r0
30: e0800d21 add r0, r0, r1, lsr #26
34: e1b00320 lsrs r0, r0, #6
38: 01a0f00e moveq pc, lr
3c: e320f000 nop {0}
00000040 <__loop_delay>:
40: e2500001 subs r0, r0, #1
44: 8afffffe bhi 40 <__loop_delay>
48: e1a0f00e mov pc, lr
4c: e320f000 nop {0}
, which now reports:
Calibrating delay loop... 996.14 BogoMIPS (lpj=4980736)
Some more test results:
On mx31 (ARM1136) running at 532 MHz, before the patch:
Calibrating delay loop... 351.43 BogoMIPS (lpj=1757184)
On mx31 (ARM1136) running at 532 MHz after the patch:
Calibrating delay loop... 528.79 BogoMIPS (lpj=2643968)
Also tested on mx6 (CortexA9) and on mx27 (ARM926), which shows the same
BogoMIPS value before and after this patch.

Copying a function with memcpy() and then trying to execute the
result isn't trivially portable to Thumb.
This patch modifies the kexec soft restart code to copy its
assembler trampoline relocate_new_kernel() using fncpy() instead,
so that relocate_new_kernel can be in the same ISA as the rest of
the kernel without problems.
