Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "A bit has accumulated, but it's been a week or so since my last batch of post-merge-window fixes, so... 1) Missing module license in netfilter reject module, from Pablo. Lots of people ran into this. 2) Off by one in mac80211 baserate calculation, from Karl Beldan. 3) Fix incorrect return value from ax88179_178a driver's set_mac_addr op, which broke use of it with bonding. From Ian Morgan. 4) Checking of skb_gso_segment()'s return value was not all encompassing, it can return an SKB pointer, a pointer error, or NULL. Fix from Florian Westphal. This is crummy, and longer term will be fixed to just return error pointers or a real SKB. 6) Encapsulation offloads not being handled by skb_gso_transport_seglen(). From Florian Westphal. 7) Fix deadlock in TIPC stack, from Ying Xue. 8) Fix performance regression from using rhashtable for netlink sockets. The problem was the synchronize_net() invoked for every socket destroy. From Thomas Graf. 9) Fix bug in eBPF verifier, and remove the strong dependency of BPF on NET. From Alexei Starovoitov. 10) In qdisc_create(), use the correct interface to allocate ->cpu_bstats, otherwise the u64_stats_sync member isn't initialized properly. From Sabrina Dubroca. 11) Off by one in ip_set_nfnl_get_byindex(), from Dan Carpenter. 12) nf_tables_newchain() was erroneously expecting error pointers from netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats(). It only returna a valid pointer or NULL. From Sabrina Dubroca. 13) Fix use-after-free in _decode_session6(), from Li RongQing. 14) When we set the TX flow hash on a socket, we mistakenly do so before we've nailed down the final source port. Move the setting deeper to fix this. From Sathya Perla. 15) NAPI budget accounting in amd-xgbe driver was counting descriptors instead of full packets, fix from Thomas Lendacky. 16) Fix total_data_buflen calculation in hyperv driver, from Haiyang Zhang. 17) Fix bcma driver build with OF_ADDRESS disabled, from Hauke Mehrtens. 18) Fix mis-use of per-cpu memory in TCP md5 code. The problem is that something that ends up being vmalloc memory can't be passed to the crypto hash routines via scatter-gather lists. From Eric Dumazet. 19) Fix regression in promiscuous mode enabling in cdc-ether, from Olivier Blin. 20) Bucket eviction and frag entry killing can race with eachother, causing an unlink of the object from the wrong list. Fix from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 21) Missing initialization of spinlock in cxgb4 driver, from Anish Bhatt. 22) Do not cache ipv4 routing failures, otherwise if the sysctl for forwarding is subsequently enabled this won't be seen.

2014-10-31net: smc91x: Fix gpios for device tree based bootingTony Lindgren
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.

This reverts commit 68da166491655bc54051bf04c78ce648e2e33508. It turns out that the assertion about scope of regressions due to always keeping keyboard controller in legacy mode was proven wrong. There are laptops, such as Clevo W650SH, that only have internal touchpad (no external PS/2 ports), that require active multiplexing mode to switch the touchpad (Elantech) into native mode instead of basic PS/2 emulation.

The only really new thing here is the PM QoS class for memory bandwidth, but it is simple enough and users of it will be added in the next cycle. One major change in behavior is that platform devices enumerated by ACPI will use 32-bit DMA mask by default. Also included is an ACPICA update to a new upstream release, but that's mostly cleanups, changes in tools and similar. The rest is fixes and cleanups mostly. Specifics: - Fix for a recent PCI power management change that overlooked the fact that some IRQ chips might not be able to configure PCIe PME for system wakeup from Lucas Stach. - Fix for a bug introduced in 3.17 where acpi_device_wakeup() is called with a wrong ordering of arguments from Zhang Rui. - A bunch of intel_pstate driver fixes (all -stable candidates) from Dirk Brandewie, Gabriele Mazzotta and Pali Rohár. - Fixes for a rather long-standing problem with the OOM killer and the freezer that frozen processes killed by the OOM do not actually release any memory until they are thawed, so OOM-killing them is rather pointless, with a couple of cleanups on top (Michal Hocko, Cong Wang, Rafael J Wysocki). - ACPICA update to upstream release 20140926, inlcuding mostly cleanups reducing differences between the upstream ACPICA and the kernel code, tools changes (acpidump, acpiexec) and support for the _DDN object (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng). - New PM QoS class for memory bandwidth from Tomeu Vizoso. - Default 32-bit DMA mask for platform devices enumerated by ACPI (this change is mostly needed for some drivers development in progress targeted at 3.19) from Heikki Krogerus. - ACPI EC driver cleanups, mostly related to debugging, from Lv Zheng. - cpufreq-dt driver updates from Thomas Petazzoni. - powernv cpuidle driver update from Preeti U Murthy" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.18-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (34 commits) intel_pstate: Correct BYT VID values. intel_pstate: Fix BYT frequency reporting intel_pstate: Don't lose sysfs settings during cpu offline cpufreq: intel_pstate: Reflect current no_turbo state correctly cpufreq: expose scaling_cur_freq sysfs file for set_policy() drivers cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix setting max_perf_pct in performance policy PCI / PM: handle failure to enable wakeup on PCIe PME ACPI: invoke acpi_device_wakeup() with correct parameters PM / freezer: Clean up code after recent fixes PM: convert do_each_thread to for_each_process_thread OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend freezer: remove obsolete comments in __thaw_task() freezer: Do not freeze tasks killed by OOM killer ACPI / platform: provide default DMA mask cpuidle: powernv: Populate cpuidle state details by querying the device-tree cpufreq: cpufreq-dt: adjust message related to regulators cpufreq: cpufreq-dt: extend with platform_data cpufreq: allow driver-specific data ACPI / EC: Cleanup coding style.

Now the buggy patch has been dropped entirely from my next branch. Thus I hope those changes can still be merged in 3.18-rc2 as most of them are platform thermal driver changes. Specifics: - introduce ACPI INT340X thermal drivers. Newer laptops and tablets may have thermal sensors and other devices with thermal control capabilities that are exposed for the OS to use via the ACPI INT340x device objects. Several drivers are introduced to expose the temperature information and cooling ability from these objects to user-space via the normal thermal framework. From: Lu Aaron, Lan Tianyu, Jacob Pan and Zhang Rui. - introduce a new thermal governor, which just uses a hysteresis to switch abruptly on/off a cooling device. This governor can be used to control certain fan devices that can not be throttled but just switched on or off. From: Peter Feuerer. - introduce support for some new thermal interrupt functions on i.MX6SX, in IMX thermal driver. From: Anson, Huang. - introduce tracing support on thermal framework.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "Here are the target updates for v3.18-rc2 code. These where originally destined for -rc1, but due to the combination of travel last week for KVM Forum and my mistake of taking the three week merge window literally, the pull request slipped.. Apologies for that. Things where reasonably quiet this round. The highlights include: - New userspace backend driver (target_core_user.ko) by Shaohua Li and Andy Grover - A number of cleanups in target, iscsi-taret and qla_target code from Joern Engel - Fix an OOPs related to queue full handling with CHECK_CONDITION status from Quinn Tran - Fix to disable TX completion interrupt coalescing in iser-target, that was causing problems on some hardware - Fix for PR APTPL metadata handling with demo-mode ACLs I'm most excited about the new backend driver that uses UIO + shared memory ring to dispatch I/O and control commands into user-space. This was probably the most requested feature by users over the last couple of years, and opens up a new area of development + porting of existing user-space storage applications to LIO. Thanks to Shaohua + Andy for making this happen. Also another honorable mention, a new Xen PV SCSI driver was merged via the xen/tip.git tree recently, which puts us now at 10 target drivers in upstream!
