After the type change, addresses in unicast and multicast lists wouldn't make
sense, not to mention possible different lenghts. So flush both lists here.
Note "dev_addr_discard" will be very soon replaced by "dev_mc_flush" (once
mc_list conversion will be done).

The counters in the 82599 Virtual Function are not clear on read. They
accumulate to the maximum value and then roll over. They are also not
cleared when the VF executes a soft reset, so it is possible they are
non-zero when the driver loads and starts. This has all been accounted
for in the code that keeps the stats up to date but there is one case
that is not. When the PF driver is reset the counters in the VF are
all reset to zero. This adds an additional accounting overhead into
the VF driver when the PF is reset under its feet. This patch adds
additional counters that are used by the VF driver to accumulate and
save stats after a PF reset has been detected. Prior to this patch
displaying the stats in the VF after the PF has reset would show
bogus data.

Currently netdev_features_change is called before fcoe tx queues
setup is done, so this patch moves calling of netdev_features_change
after tx queues setup is done in ixgbe_init_interrupt_scheme, so
that real_num_tx_queues is updated correctly on each fcoe enable
or disable.
This allows additional fcoe queues updated correctly in vlan driver
for their correct queue selection.

Fix 82599 link issues during driver load and unload test using multi-speed
10G & 1G fiber modules. When connected back to back sometime 82599 multispeed
fiber modules would link at 1G speed instead of 10G highest speed, due to a
race condition in autotry process involving Tx laser flapping. Move autotry
autoneg-37 tx laser flapping process from multispeed module init setup
to driver unload. This will alert the link partner to restart its
autotry process when it tries to establish the link with the link partner

The last bit written to a completion descriptor by hardware is the color
bit. Driver must read all other descriptor fields only after reading the
color bit to avoid reading stale descriptor fields. There is a rmb() after
reading the color bit to avoid any compiler/cpu reordering of the reads.
The color bit is the generation bit that toggles each pass through the
completion descriptor ring.

IEEE 802.3ae clause 45 specifies a somewhat modified MDIO protocol
for use by 10GIGE phys. The main change is a 21 bit address split into
a 5 bit device ID and a 16 bit register offset. The definition is designed
so that normal and extended devices can run on the same MDIO bus.
Extend mdio-bitbang to do the new protocol. At the MDIO bus level the
protocol is requested by or'ing MII_ADDR_C45 into the register offset.
Make phy_read/phy_write/etc pass a full 32 bit register offset.
This does not attempt to make the phy layer support C45 style PHYs, just
to provide the MDIO bus support.
Tested against a Broadcom 10GE phy with ID 0x206034, and several
Broadcom 10/100/1000 Phys in normal mode.

This patch fixes UDP socket refcnt bugs in the pppol2tp driver.
A bug can cause a kernel stack trace when a tunnel socket is closed.
A way to reproduce the issue is to prepare the UDP socket for L2TP (by
opening a tunnel pppol2tp socket) and then close it before any L2TP
sessions are added to it. The sequence is
Create UDP socket
Create tunnel pppol2tp socket to prepare UDP socket for L2TP
pppol2tp_connect: session_id=0, peer_session_id=0
L2TP SCCRP control frame received (tunnel_id==0)
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_hold()
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_put
L2TP ZLB control frame received (tunnel_id=nnn)
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_hold()
pppol2tp_recv_core: sock_put
Close tunnel management socket
pppol2tp_release: session_id=0, peer_session_id=0
Close UDP socket
udp_lib_close: BUG
The addition of sock_hold() in pppol2tp_connect() solves the problem.
For data frames, two sock_put() calls were added to plug a refcnt leak
per received data frame. The ref that is grabbed at the top of
pppol2tp_recv_core() must always be released, but this wasn't done for
accepted data frames or data frames discarded because of bad UDP
checksums. This leak meant that any UDP socket that had passed L2TP
data traffic (i.e. L2TP data frames, not just L2TP control frames)
using pppol2tp would not be released by the kernel.

When transmitting L2TP frames, we derive the outgoing interface's UDP
checksum hardware assist capabilities from the tunnel dst dev. This
can sometimes be NULL, especially when routing protocols are used and
routing changes occur. This patch just checks for NULL dst or dev
pointers when checking for netdev hardware assist features.

Stanse found that one error path (when alloc_skb fails) in netdev_tx
omits to unlock hw_priv->hwlock. Fix that.

Commit a239a8b47cc0e5e6d7416a89f340beac06d5edaa introduced a
noisy message, that fills up the log very fast.
The error seems not to be fatal (the connection is stable and
performance is ok), so make it IWL_DEBUG_TX rather than IWL_ERR.

When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames
in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE
frames and let them go through the normal transmit path.
Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was
merged instead:
commit 6c8afef551fef87a3bf24f8a74c69a7f2f72fc82
Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>

ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames
After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on
rekeying with current versions with this change in place.
It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with
the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active.
This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the
following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw():
index = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno);
cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1);
BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL);
I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an
incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should
simply get rid of this mess.
This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it
stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even
when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

In case debugfs does not init for some reason (or is disabled
on older kernels) driver does not allocate stats.fw_stats
structure, but tries to clear it later and trips on a NULL
pointer:

After testing, we found that TX_STA_FIFO_MCS is the last MCS value
tried. If the transmission failed, 8 frames have been transmitted. If the
transmission succeed, we can easily compute the number of retry. This patch fix
the way status is reported to mac80211 rate control. It has 2 bugs :
1. mcs can contain the short preamble flag and it will lead to wrong
computations.
2. minstrel nearly always say that 54 Mbits is the best rate, even if we are
very far from the AP

This is an implementation that support WCID being the encryption key.
Wireless Cli Id was set to be the encryption key in rt2800pci_write_tx_desc
and read (TX_STA_FIFO_WCID) as the current queue entry index.
