Add a SYNPROXY for netfilter. The code is split into two parts, the synproxy
core with common functions and an address family specific target.
The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with
a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks
whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie.
It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if
successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size
announced by the server.
Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be
statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server
are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to
the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of
the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in

net: tcp_probe: allow more advanced ingress filtering by mark
Currently, the tcp_probe snooper can either filter packets by a given
port (handed to the module via module parameter e.g. port=80) or lets
all TCP traffic pass (port=0, default). When a port is specified, the
port number is tested against the sk's source/destination port. Thus,
if one of them matches, the information will be further processed for
the log.
As this is quite limited, allow for more advanced filtering possibilities
which can facilitate debugging/analysis with the help of the tcp_probe
snooper. Therefore, similarly as added to BPF machine in commit 7e75f93e
("pkt_sched: ingress socket filter by mark"), add the possibility to
use skb->mark as a filter.
If the mark is not being used otherwise, this allows ingress filtering
by flow (e.g. in order to track updates from only a single flow, or a
subset of all flows for a given port) and other things such as dynamic
logging and reconfiguration without removing/re-inserting the tcp_probe
module, etc. Simple example:

shutdown etc. commands will be sent to FW later when bus
driver calls disconnect handler.
This mechanism works fine with SDIO and PCIe interfaces, but
there is an issue with USB.
USB bus driver returns all URBs submitted for receiving data
and command response immediately after usb_deregister() with
failure status. Hence we don't send deauth, shutdown etc.
command to firmware.
The problem is fixed by moving code from disconnect handler to
rmmod routine for USB interface.

bcma: add method to power up and down the PCIe core by wifi driver
The wifi driver should tell the PCIe core that it is now in operation
so that some workarounds can be applied and the power state is changed.
This should replace the call to bcma_core_pci_extend_L1timer by the
brcmsmac driver.

bcma: change max PCI read request size to 128
This PCIe controller does not support a max read request size above 128
bytes. The sold card I tested this controller with used 128 as default
value, but some new routers are sold with BCM4331 chips, which have a
default max read request size of 512. This device fails at the first
DMA reqeust whch is bigger than 126 bytes.
This patch changes the max read request size to 128 for every device on
the PCIe link.

rt2x00: rt2800lib: don't hardcode beacon offsets
The values written into the BCN_OFFSET[01] registers are
hardcoded in the rt2800_init_register function.
Add a macro and a helper function to derive these values
directly from the base address of a given beacon, and use
the new function instead of the hardcoded numbers.
The patch contains no functional changes. The programmed
register values are the same before and after the patch.

The HW_BEACON_BASE() macro returns the base address
of a given beacon, however the returned values are
not usable on all chipsets. On devices which have
selectable shared memory parts, some beacon may be
located in the high part of the shared memory.
Instead of extending the already complicated macro,
add a new helper function and use that to get the
base address of a given beacon.
The actual patch contains no functional changes, the
helper function will be extended in a further patch
to handle different chipsets' requirements.

mac80211: fix change_interface queue assignments
Jouni reported that with mac80211_hwsim, multicast TX was causing
crashes due to invalid vif->cab_queue assignment. It turns out that
this is caused by change_interface() getting invoked and not having
the vif->type/vif->p2p assigned correctly before calling the queue
check (ieee80211_check_queues). Fix this by passing the 'external'
interface type to the function and adjusting it accordingly.
While at it, also fix the error path in change_interface, it wasn't
correctly resetting to the external type but using the internal one
instead.
Fortunately this affects on hwsim because all other drivers set the
vif->type/vif->p2p variables when changing iftype. This shouldn't
be needed, but almost all implementations actually do it for their
own internal handling.

openvswitch: Mega flow implementation
Add wildcarded flow support in kernel datapath.
Wildcarded flow can improve OVS flow set up performance by avoid sending
matching new flows to the user space program. The exact performance boost
will largely dependent on wildcarded flow hit rate.
In case all new flows hits wildcard flows, the flow set up rate is
within 5% of that of linux bridge module.
Pravin has made significant contributions to this patch. Including API
clean ups and bug fixes.
