iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 series
When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection
mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field
in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use
protection.
The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3:
Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the
BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT
stations in a 20 MHz BSS
Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or
secondary channels
Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one
20 MHz HT station is associated.
Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS.
When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the
Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or
CTS-to-Self.
By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less
overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better
protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in
highly-congested environment.
For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the
recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

xfrm: SAD entries do not expire correctly after suspend-resume
This fixes the following bug in the current implementation of
net/xfrm: SAD entries timeouts do not count the time spent by the machine
in the suspended state. This leads to the connectivity problems because
after resuming local machine thinks that the SAD entry is still valid, while
it has already been expired on the remote server.
The cause of this is very simple: the timeouts in the net/xfrm are bound to
the old mod_timer() timers. This patch reassigns them to the
CLOCK_REALTIME hrtimer.

that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing

net/appletalk: push down BKL into a atalk_dgram_ops
Making the BKL usage explicit in appletalk makes it more
obvious where it is used, reduces code size and helps
getting rid of the BKL in common code.
I did not analyse how to kill lock_kernel from appletalk
entirely, this will involve either proving that it's not
needed, or replacing with a proper mutex or spinlock,
after finding out which data structures are protected

net, compat_ioctl: handle more ioctls correctly
The MII ioctls and SIOCSIFNAME need to go through ifsioc conversion,

Add IFSLAVE ioctls to the EINVAL list and move it to the end to

net, compat_ioctl: handle socket ioctl abuses in tty drivers
Slip and a few other drivers use the same ioctl numbers on
tty devices that are normally meant for sockets. This causes
problems with our compat_ioctl handling that tries to convert
the data structures in a different format.
Fortunately, these five drivers all use 32 bit compatible
data structures in the ioctl numbers, so we can just add
a trivial compat_ioctl conversion function to each of them.
SIOCSIFENCAP and SIOCGIFENCAP do not need to live in
fs/compat_ioctl.c after this any more, and they are not
used on any sockets.

net/tun: handle compat_ioctl directly
The tun driver is the only code in the kernel that operates
on a character device with struct ifreq. Change the driver
to handle the conversion itself so we can contain the
remaining ifreq handling in the socket layer.
This also fixes a bug in the handling of invalid ioctl
numbers on an unbound tun device. The driver treats this
as a TUNSETIFF in native mode, but there is no way for
the generic compat_ioctl() function to emulate this
behaviour. Possibly the driver was only doing this
accidentally anyway, but if any code relies on this
misfeature, it now also works in compat mode.

ipip: Fix handling of DF packets when pmtudisc is OFF
RFC 2003 requires the outer header to have DF set if DF is set
on the inner header, even when PMTU discovery is off for the
tunnel. Our implementation does exactly that.
For this to work properly the IPIP gateway also needs to engate
in PMTU when the inner DF bit is set. As otherwise the original
host would not be able to carry out its PMTU successfully since
part of the path is only visible to the gateway.
Unfortunately when the tunnel PMTU discovery setting is off, we
do not collect the necessary soft state, resulting in blackholes
when the original host tries to perform PMTU discovery.
This problem is not reproducible on the IPIP gateway itself as
the inner packet usually has skb->local_df set. This is not
correctly cleared (an unrelated bug) when the packet passes
through the tunnel, which allows fragmentation to occur. For
hosts behind the IPIP gateway it is readily visible with a simple
ping.
This patch fixes the problem by performing PMTU discovery for
all packets with the inner DF bit set, regardless of the PMTU
discovery setting on the tunnel itself.
