66cfd1bd05 tg3: Fix potential netpoll crash
Up until now the tg3 driver would call netif_napi_add() for the maximum
number of NAPI instances the driver could use.  The problem is that
netpoll could call tg3_poll() on instances that are not active.  The net
effect is that the driver will crash attempting to dereference
uninitialized pointers.

The fix is to only allocate as many NAPI instances as the driver would
use in tg3_open() and deleted them in tg3_close().

0197aa38df ipv4: rcu conversion in ip_route_output_slow
ip_route_output_slow() is enclosed in an rcu_read_lock() protected
section, so that no references are taken/released on device, thanks to
__ip_dev_find() & dev_get_by_index_rcu()

Tested with ip route cache disabled, and a stress test :

82efee1499 ipv4: introduce __ip_dev_find()
ip_dev_find(net, addr) finds a device given an IPv4 source address and
takes a reference on it.

Introduce __ip_dev_find(), taking a third argument, to optionally take
the device reference. Callers not asking the reference to be taken

6110a1f43c intel_idle: Voluntary leave_mm before entering deeper
Avoid TLB flush IPIs for the cores in deeper c-states by voluntary leave_mm()
before entering into that state. CPUs tend to flush TLB in those c-states
anyways.

acpi_idle does this with C3-type states, but it was not caried over
when intel_idle was introduced.  intel_idle can apply it
to C-states in addition to those that ACPI might export as C3...

173e79fb70 vlan: dont drop packets from unknown vlans in promiscuous mode
Roger Luethi noticed packets for unknown VLANs getting silently dropped
even in promiscuous mode.

Check for promiscuous mode in __vlan_hwaccel_rx() and vlan_gro_common()

As suggested by Patrick, mark such packets to have skb->pkt_type set to
PACKET_OTHERHOST to make sure they are dropped by IP stack.

3a3b758605 e1000e: use hardware writeback batching
Most e1000e parts support batching writebacks.  The problem with this is
that when some of the TADV or TIDV timers are not set, Tx can sit forever.

This is solved in this patch with write flushes using the Flush Partial
Descriptors (FPD) bit in TIDV and RDTR.

This improves bus utilization and removes partial writes on e1000e,
particularly from 82571 parts in S5500 chipset based machines.

Only ES2LAN and 82571/2 parts are included in this optimization, to reduce
testing load.

29d08b3efd drm/gem: handlecount isn't really a kref so don't make it one.
There were lots of places being inconsistent since handle count
looked like a kref but it really wasn't.

Fix this my just making handle count an atomic on the object,
and have it increase the normal object kref.

Now i915/radeon/nouveau drivers can drop the normal reference on
userspace object creation, and have the handle hold it.

This patch fixes a memory leak or corruption on unload, because
the driver had no way of knowing if a handle had been actually
added for this object, and the fbcon object needed to know this
to clean itself up properly.

Commit c52c2ddc1dfa ("alpha: switch osf_sigprocmask() to use of

got fixed in commit 0f44fbd297e1 ("alpha: fix compile problem in
arch/alpha/kernel/signal.c"), but it also caused a regression.

Since _BLOCKABLE is already the set of signals that can be blocked, the
code should do "newmask & _BLOCKABLE" rather than inverting _BLOCKABLE
before masking.

ef09aadf7b myri10ge: DCA update (resubmit)
This patch contains the following DCA improvements to myri10ge:

1) Finally move myri10ge to use dca3 API

2) Disable PCIe relaxed ordering when enabling DCA on
     myri10ge.  This provides a performance boost on Nehalem
     based Xeons

3) Make sure to properly initialize NIC's DCA state when it is enabled,
     rather than giving the NIC a bogus tag (0) and waiting for
     the first received packet to trigger an update.  Not using a
     real tag can cause hardware exceptions on some motherboards
     when a CPU socket is empty.

3) Always update the cached CPU when our interrupt affinity changes
     so as to avoid excessive calls to dca3_get_tag()

9337057d43 um: Proper Fix for f25c80a4: remove duplicate structure field initialization
uml_net_set_mac() was broken and luckily it was never used, before.
What it was trying to do is spin_lock before memcopy the mac address.
Linus attempted to fix it in assumption that someone decided the
lock was needed. But since it was never ever used at all, and was
just dead code, I think we can assume that it is not needed, after
all.

On the other hand patch [f25c80a4] was trying to use eth_mac_addr()
in eth_configure(), *which was the real fallout*. Because of state
checks done inside eth_mac_addr() the address was never set. I have
not reintroduced the memcpy wrapper, but I've put a comment for future
cats.

The code now is back to exactly as it was before [f25c80a4]. With
the cleanup applied. If the spin_lock is indeed needed then a contender
should supply a test case that fails, then fix it with the proper
locking, as a separate unrelated patch.

inode data area.  However, disk corruption or a local attacker could, in
theory, remove that NUL.  Because we're using strlen() (my fault,
introduced in a731d1 when removing vfs_follow_link()), we could walk off
the end of that string.

bfa5ae63b8 net: rename netdev rx_queue to ingress_queue
There is some confusion with rx_queue name after RPS, and net drivers
private rx_queue fields.

I suggest to rename "struct net_device"->rx_queue to ingress_queue.

8560f2266b ip6tnl: percpu stats accounting
Maintain per_cpu tx_bytes, tx_packets, rx_bytes, rx_packets.

Other seldom used fields are kept in netdev->stats structure, possibly
unsafe.

This is a preliminary work to support lockless transmit path, and
correct RX stats, that are already unsafe.

Testing on very recent kernel (2.6.36-rc6) made this warning pop:

    WARNING: at fs/fs-writeback.c:87 inode_to_bdi+0x65/0x70()
    Hardware name:
    Dirtiable inode bdi default != sb bdi cifs

...the following patch fixes it and seems to be the obviously correct
thing to do for cifs.
