The driver does not support multiple rx queues, and so it's a waste
of resources to have a default number larger than one (1).

Use eth_prepare_mac_addr_change and eth_commit_mac_addr_change, instead
of manually checking and storing the MAC address, which makes the
code slightly more robust. This fixes the lack of valid MAC address check
in the driver's .ndo_set_mac_address hook.

This commit cleans-up mvneta_init(), which initializes the hardware
and allocates the rx/qx queues. The queue allocation is simplified
by using devm_kcalloc instead of kzalloc. The unused phy_addr parameter
is removed. While here, the 'hal' references in the comments are removed.
This commit makes no functionality change.

through ip tool.
o min_tx_rate puts lower limit on the VF bandwidth. VF is guaranteed
to have a bandwidth of at least this value.
max_tx_rate puts cap on the VF bandwidth. VF can have a bandwidth
of up to this value.
o A new handler set_vf_rate for attr IFLA_VF_RATE has been introduced
which takes 4 arguments:
netdev, VF number, min_tx_rate, max_tx_rate
o ndo_set_vf_rate replaces ndo_set_vf_tx_rate handler.
o Drivers that currently implement ndo_set_vf_tx_rate should now call
ndo_set_vf_rate instead and reject attempt to set a minimum bandwidth
greater than 0 for IFLA_VF_TX_RATE when IFLA_VF_RATE is not yet
implemented by driver.
o If user enters only one of either min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, then,
userland should read back the other value from driver and set both
for IFLA_VF_RATE.
Drivers that have not yet implemented IFLA_VF_RATE should always
return min_tx_rate as 0 when read from ip tool.
o If both IFLA_VF_TX_RATE and IFLA_VF_RATE options are specified, then
IFLA_VF_RATE should override.
o Idea is to have consistent display of rate values to user.
o Usage example: -

Reduce and clarify locking requirements for ovs_flow_cmd_alloc_info(),
ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() and ovs_flow_cmd_build_info().
A datapath pointer is available only when holding a lock. Change
ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() and ovs_flow_cmd_build_info() to take a
dp_ifindex directly, rather than a datapath pointer that is then
(only) used to get the dp_ifindex. This is useful, since the
dp_ifindex is available even when the datapath pointer is not, both
before and after taking a lock, which makes further critical section
reduction possible.
Make ovs_flow_cmd_alloc_info() take an 'acts' argument instead a
'flow' pointer. This allows some future patches to do the allocation
before acquiring the flow pointer.
The locking requirements after this patch are:
ovs_flow_cmd_alloc_info(): May be called without locking, must not be
called while holding the RCU read lock (due to memory allocation).
If 'acts' belong to a flow in the flow table, however, then the
caller must hold ovs_mutex.
ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info(): Either ovs_mutex or RCU read lock must be held.
ovs_flow_cmd_build_info(): This calls both of the above, so the caller
must hold ovs_mutex.

For ovs_flow_stats_get() using ovsl_dereference() was wrong, since
flow dumps call this with RCU read lock.
ovs_flow_stats_clear() is always called with ovs_mutex, so can use
ovsl_dereference().
Also, make the ovs_flow_stats_get() 'flow' argument const to make
later patches cleaner.

Move most memory allocations away from the ovs_mutex critical
sections. vport allocations still happen while the lock is taken, as
changing that would require major refactoring. Also, vports are
created very rarely so it should not matter.
Change ovs_dp_cmd_get() now only takes the rcu_read_lock(), rather
than ovs_lock(), as nothing need to be changed. This was done by
ovs_vport_cmd_get() already.

Masks are inserted when flows are inserted to the table, so it is

Flow SET can accept an empty set of actions, with the intended
semantics of leaving existing actions unmodified. This seems to have
been brokin after OVS 1.7, as we have assigned the flow's actions
pointer to NULL in this case, but we never check for the NULL pointer
later on. This patch restores the intended behavior and documents it
in the include/linux/openvswitch.h.

Minimize padding in sw_flow_key and move 'tp' top the main struct.
These changes simplify code when accessing the transport port numbers
and the tcp flags, and makes the sw_flow_key 8 bytes smaller on 64-bit
systems (128->120 bytes). These changes also make the keys for IPv4
packets to fit in one cache line.
There is a valid concern for safety of packing the struct
ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel, as it would be possible to take the address of
the tun_id member as a __be64 * which could result in unaligned access
in some systems. However:
- sw_flow_key itself is 64-bit aligned, so the tun_id within is
always
64-bit aligned.
- We never make arrays of ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel (which would force
every
second tun_key to be misaligned).
- We never take the address of the tun_id in to a __be64 *.
- Whereever we use struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel outside the
sw_flow_key,
it is in stack (on tunnel input functions), where compiler has full
control of the alignment.

bonding: fix enslaving a dev without mtu setting support
With the introduction of bond_free_slave() we need to have slave->bond
populated before calling it, however if the dev_mtu_set(slave, mtu) fails,
we call bond_free_slave() before actually setting slave->bond, and thus
we'll panic.
Fix this by populating slave->bond (and ->dev, it seems appropriate) as
early as possible.
Also, remove a harmful check for NULL in bond_get_bond_by_slave(), as it's
only hiding the real problem and making it harder to debug.

of_set_phy_supported allows overwiting hardware capabilities of
a phy with values from the devicetree. of_set_phy_supported is
called right after phy_device_register in the assumption that
phy_probe is called from phy_device_register and the features
of the phy are already initialized. For the genphy driver this
is not true, here phy_probe is called later during phy_connect
time. phy_probe will then overwrite all settings done from
of_set_phy_supported
Fix this by moving of_set_phy_supported to the core phy code
and calling it from phy_probe.

of_set_phy_supported allows overwiting hardware capabilities of
a phy with values from the devicetree. This does not work with
the genphy driver though because the genphys config_init function
will overwrite all values adjusted by of_set_phy_supported. Fix
this by initialising the genphy features in the phy_driver struct
and in config_init just limit the features to the ones the hardware
can actually support. The resulting features are a subset of the
devicetree specified features and the hardware features.

for drivers that require them.
First two patches update the 'fixed-link' Device Tree binding and drivers to
refere to it.
Patches 3 to 7 update the in-tree network drivers that use
of_phy_connect_fixed_link()
Patch 8 removes of_phy_connect_fixed_link
Patch 9 removes the PowerPC code that parsed the 'fixed-link' property.
Patch 9 can be merged via the net-next tree if the PowerPC folks ack it,
but it really has to be merged after the first 8 patches in order to avoid
breakage.

Parsing and registration of fixed PHY devices was needed with the use of
of_phy_connect_fixed_link() because this function was using the
designated PHY address identifier (first cell of the property) as the
address to bind the PHY on the emulated bus.
Since commit 3be2a49e5c08d268f8af0dd4fe89a24ea8cdc339 ("of: provide a
binding for fixed link PHYs") a new pair of functions has been
introduced which allows for dynamic address allocation of these fixed
PHY devices, but also parses the old 'fixed-link' 5-digit property.
Registration of fixed PHY early in platform code was needed because we
could not issue a fixed MDIO bus re-scan within network drivers. The
fixed PHYs had to be registered before the network drivers would call
of_phy_connect_fixed_link(). All of these caveats are solved now, such
that we can safely remove of_add_fixed_phys() now.
