xtensa: fix linker script transformation for .text.unlikely
Now that binutils generate *.unlikely sections which don't follow
documented (info as) literal section naming rules, section name
transformation script doesn't work well resulting in the following
errors at vmlinux link time:
main.c:(.text.unlikely+0x3): dangerous relocation: l32r: literal
placed after use: .literal.unlikely
Fix section name transformation script by adding specific rule for
.text.unlikely sections.

1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of
bugs. These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need
to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not
expecting this possibility. The callers have cached pointers to the
packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to
continue using pskb_may_pull().
So they could end up reading garbage.
It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use
skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify
the linear SKB data area.
2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can
call down into the TCP keepalive code. The case basically involves
creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling
setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...)
Fixed by Eric Dumazet.
3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered
on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP. Fix
from Andrzej Kaczmarek.
4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in
place. From Andrei Emeltchenko.
5) Fix deadlock between cfg80211_mutex and reg_regdb_search_mutex in
cfg80211, from Luis R. Rodriguez.
6) Fix interrupt double release in iwlwifi, from Emmanuel Grumbach.
7) Missing module license in bcm87xx driver, from Peter Huewe.
8) Team driver can lose port changed events when adding devices to a
team, fix from Jiri Pirko.
9) Fix endless loop when trying ot unregister PPPOE device in zombie
state, from Xiaodong Xu.
10) batman-adv layer needs to set MAC address of software device
earlier, otherwise we call tt_local_add with it uninitialized.
11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but
that doesn't program the device properly. From Marek Vasut.

Whenever both WLAN and BT in/out sleep mode, sometimes WLAN
is not able to take back the shared LNA control after resumes
from sleep mode. The idea is that for WLAN to check if BT owns
LNA control and BT is in sleep mode when WLAN just resumes from
sleep mode. If the condition is true, do a BTCOEX_RC_WARM_RESET
for WLAN to take back the control of shared LNA.
Now the issue is the BT sleep value read from MCI register is
overlooked by assigning u32 into u8. Hence the above condition never
be met so that WLAN used to report beacon losses and frequent
connection drops.

rt2x00: Replace open coded interface checking with interface combinations.
Mac80211 has formal infrastructure to specify which interface combinations
are supported. Make use of this facility in favor of open coding it
ourselves.
So far we only have to specify we can support multiple AP interfaces,
no other combinations are supported.

Currently, ASPM is disabled for all WLAN+BT combo chipsets
when BTCOEX is enabled. This is incorrect since the workaround
is required only for WB195, which is a AR9285+AR3011 combo
solution. Fix this by checking for the HW version when enabling
the workaround.

So says Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>:
This is the first NFC pull request for the 3.7 merge window.
With this one we get:
- HCI and LLC layers separation. We now can support various LLC
protocols for HCI drivers, SHDLC being one of them. This will be needed as
we're planning to support raw HCI chipsets that do the SHDLC encapsulation
in firmware. So for now we have an SHDLC and a NOP LLC layers.
- pn533 command queueing implementation. This simplifies the pn533 locking
logic and fixes a kernel warning.
- NCI p2p initiator mode implementation.
- Replace custom workqueues with system ones, for HCI and LLCP.
- Raw pn544 driver removal, as scheduled on the features-removal.txt file.
- A few HCI, SHDLC and LLCP fixes.

c/r: prctl: fix build error for no-MMU case
Commit 1ad75b9e1628 ("c/r: prctl: add minimal address test to
PR_SET_MM") added some address checking to prctl_set_mm() used by
checkpoint-restore. This causes a build error for no-MMU systems:
kernel/sys.c: In function 'prctl_set_mm':
kernel/sys.c:1868:34: error: 'mmap_min_addr' undeclared (first use in this function)
The test for mmap_min_addr doesn't make a lot of sense for no-MMU code
as noted in commit 6e1415467614 ("NOMMU: Optimise away the
{dac_,}mmap_min_addr tests").
This patch defines mmap_min_addr as 0UL in the no-MMU case so that the
compiler will optimize away tests for "addr < mmap_min_addr".

lib/flex_proportions.c: fix corruption of denominator in flexible proportions
When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative
values for the number of observed events.
This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a
result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that
moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by
zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits.
This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's
3.6.0-rc6 based kernel.
Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes
us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly)
thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat
inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.
