When a client connects in HT mode but does not provide any valid MCS
rates, the function that finds the next sample rate gets stuck in an
infinite loop.
Fix this by falling back to legacy rates if no usable MCS rates are found.

After commit d5dbda23804156ae6f35025ade5307a49d1db6d7 "ethtool: Add
support for vlan accleration.", drivers that have NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX,
and/or NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX feature, but do not allow enable/disable vlan
acceleration via ethtool set_flags, always return -EINVAL from that
function. Fix by returning -EINVAL only if requested features do not
match current settings and can not be changed by driver.
Change any driver that define ethtool->set_flags to use
ethtool_invalid_flags() to avoid similar problems in the future
(also on drivers that do not have the problem).
Tested with modified (to reproduce this bug) myri10ge driver.

The mac address of the bridge device may be changed when a new interface
is added to the bridge. If this happens, then the bridge needs to call
the network notifiers to tickle any other systems that care. Since bridge
can be a module, this also means exporting the notifier function.

The current handling of echoed IP timestamp options with prespecified
addresses is rather broken since the 2.2.x kernels. As far as i understand
it, it should behave like when originating packets.
Currently it will only timestamp the next free slot if:
- there is space for *two* timestamps
- some random data from the echoed packet taken as an IP is *not* a local IP
This first is caused by an off-by-one error. 'soffset' points to the next
free slot and so we only need to have 'soffset + 7 <= optlen'.
The second bug is using sptr as the start of the option, when it really is
set to 'skb_network_header(skb)'. I just use dptr instead which points to
the timestamp option.
Finally it would only timestamp for non-local IPs, which we shouldn't do.
So instead we exclude all unicast destinations, similar to what we do in
ip_options_compile().

can_ioctl is the only reason for struct proto to be non-const.

When parsing the FAC_NATIONAL_DIGIS facilities field, it's possible for
a remote host to provide more digipeaters than expected, resulting in
heap corruption. Check against ROSE_MAX_DIGIS to prevent overflows, and
abort facilities parsing on failure.
Additionally, when parsing the FAC_CCITT_DEST_NSAP and
FAC_CCITT_SRC_NSAP facilities fields, a remote host can provide a length
of less than 10, resulting in an underflow in a memcpy size, causing a
kernel panic due to massive heap corruption. A length of greater than
20 results in a stack overflow of the callsign array. Abort facilities
parsing on these invalid length values.

while true ; do mount ... ; umount ... ; done

asm-generic/bitops/le.h is only intended to be included directly from

which implements generic ext2 or minix bit operations.
This stops including asm-generic/bitops/le.h directly and use ext2
non-atomic bit operations instead.
It seems odd to use ext2_*_bit() on rds, but it will replaced with
__{set,clear,test}_bit_le() after introducing little endian bit operations
for all architectures. This indirect step is necessary to maintain
bisectability for some architectures which have their own little-endian

In commit 9435eb1cf0b76b323019cebf8d16762a50a12a19
("ipv4: Implement __ip_dev_find using new interface address hash.")
we reimplemented __ip_dev_find() so that it doesn't have to
do a full FIB table lookup.
Instead, it consults a hash table of addresses configured to
interfaces.
This works identically to the old code in all except one case,
and that is for loopback subnets.
The old code would match the loopback device for any IP address
that falls within a subnet configured to the loopback device.
Handle this corner case by doing the FIB lookup.
We could implement this via inet_addr_onlink() but:
1) Someone could configure many addresses to loopback and
inet_addr_onlink() is a simple list traversal.
2) We know the old code works.

In the current undo logic, cwnd is moderated after it was restored
to the value prior entering fast-recovery. It was moderated first
in tcp_try_undo_recovery then again in tcp_complete_cwr.
Since the undo indicates recovery was false, these moderations
are not necessary. If the undo is triggered when most of the
outstanding data have been acknowledged, the (restored) cwnd is
falsely pulled down to a small value.
This patch removes these cwnd moderations if cwnd is undone
a) during fast-recovery
b) by receiving DSACKs past fast-recovery

Recent zerocopy work in the 9P VirtIO transport maps and pins
user buffers into kernel memory for the server to work on them.
Since the user process can initiate this kind of pinning with a simple
read/write call, thousands of IO threads initiated by the user process can
hog the system resources and could result into denial of service.
This patch introduces flow control to avoid that extreme scenario.
The ceiling limit to avoid denial of service attacks is set to relatively
high (nr_free_pagecache_pages()/4) so that it won't interfere with
regular usage, but can step in extreme cases to limit the total system
hang. Since we don't have a global structure to accommodate this variable,
I choose the virtio_chan as the home for this.

Given that the sprious wake-ups are common, we need to move the
condition setting right next to the wake_up(). After setting the condition
to req->status = REQ_STATUS_RCVD, sprious wakeups may cause the
virtqueue back on the free list for someone else to use.
This may result in kernel panic while relasing the pinned pages
in p9_release_req_pages().
Also rearranged the while loop in req_done() for better redability.

Process may wait to get space on VirtIO ring to send a transaction to
VirtFS server. Current code just does a conditional wake_up() which
means only one process will be woken up even if multiple processes
are waiting.
This fix makes the wake_up unconditional. Hence we won't have any
processes waiting for-ever.

Without this we can cause reclaim allocation in writepage.
