The orinoco driver can send uninitialized data exposing random pieces of
the system memory. This happens because data is not padded with zeroes
when its length needs to be increased.

Drop global bit from early low mappings
Suggested by Linus, originally also proposed by Suresh.
This fixes a race condition with early start of udev, originally
tracked down by Suresh B. Siddha. The problem was that switching
to the user space VM would not clear the global low mappings
for the beginning of memory, which lead to memory corruption.
Drop the global bits.
The kernel mapping stays global because it should stay constant.

Patch from Sascha Hauer
Current implementation of imx_gpio_mode does not allow to
configure all alternate routing possibilities of the i.MX. With
this patch every bit in the gpio setup registers has a
corresponding bit in the gpio_mode parameter, so every routing
should be possible now.

The old code had the IP and SP coming from the registers in the thread
struct, which are completely wrong since those are the userspace
registers. This fixes that by pulling the correct values from the
jmp_buf in which the kernel state of each thread is stored.

bfs_fill_super() walks the inode table to get the bitmap of free inodes
and collect stats. It has no business using iget() for that - it's a
lot of extra work, extra icache pollution and more complex code.
Switched to walking the damn thing directly.
Note: that also allows to kill ->i_dsk_ino in there - separate patch if
Tigran can confirm that this field can be zero only for deleted inodes
(i.e. something that could only be found during that scan and not by
normal lookups).

The patch below introduces special thresholds to keep root node in the trie
large. This gives a flatter tree at the cost of a modest memory increase.
Overall it seems to be gain and this was also proposed by one the authors
of the paper in recent a seminar.
Main table after loading 123 k routes.
Aver depth: 3.30
Max depth: 9
Root-node size 12 bits
Total size: 4044 kB
With the patch:
Aver depth: 2.78
Max depth: 8
Root-node size 15 bits
Total size: 4150 kB
An increase of 8-10% was seen in forwading performance for an rDoS attack.

Replicate IGMP frames across all slaves in activebackup mode. This
ensures fail-over is rapid for multicast traffic as well. Otherwise,
multicast traffic will be lost until the next IGMP membership report
poll timeout.
This is conceptually similar to the treatment of IGMP traffic in
bond_alb_xmit. In that case, IGMP traffic transmitted on any slave
is re-routed to the active slave in order to ensure that multicast
traffic continues to be directed to the active receiver.

Fixes for packet split related issues
* On platforms where PAGE_SIZE > 4K, driver will use only required number of
pages compared to always using 3 pages.
* Packet split won't be used if the PAGE_SIZE is > 16K
* Adds a statistics counter to splits.
* Setting the non Null ptr to zero sized buffers to solve packet split
receive descriptor error
* When the no of pages needed is calculated, the header buffer is not
included for a given MTU.

This patch adds support for MSI/MSI-X feature to the driver. It is
a runtime parameter(for now, loadable parameter). Default is INTA.
Patch has been tested on IA64 platform with Xframe II adapter,
both of which support MSI-X feature. An improvement of about 7%
in throughput(both Tx and Rx) was observed and a reduction by 7%
in CPU utilization during Tx test.

Unfortunately, [your patch] might address the crash but doesn't address
the real problem. It turns out that the problem is one of padding
(the firmware cksum engine works only on 32-bit chunks, yuck), so
the special casing for length == 1 wasn't sufficient anyway.
This patch addresses the issue, as well the other issue of i386 +
CONFIG_HIGHMEM being broken. It is pretty much the same workaround
that Adaptec themselves used in their Windows driver. I have yet to
check if it fixes the problem when the skb is non-linear, but this
patch _will_ solve the problem for 99% of the users out there (those
not using sendfile).

This patch removes backwards compatibility for old ifenslave
binaries (ifenslave prior to verison 1.0.0).
I did not similarly modify ifenslave itself; with sysfs on the
horizon, I don't see that as being worthwhile.

This patch introduces new feature in qeth:
qeth enhancement provides the device driver support for
the Communication Controller for Linux on System z9 and zSeries
(CCL), which is software that enables running the Network Control
Program (NCP) on a zSeries machine. The OSA CDLC support is based
on a new IBM mainframe CHPID type called Open Systems Adaper for
NCP (OSN). In case of OSN qeth communicates with the type-OSN
OSA-card on one hand, and with the CCL-kernel-component Network
Device Handler (NDH) on the other.
