ipv4: teach ipconfig about the MTU option in DHCP
The DHCP spec allows the server to specify the MTU. This can be useful

This patch allows the kernel IP autoconfiguration to handle this option

It would be possible to use initramfs and add a script to set the MTU,

net: release dst entry in dev_hard_start_xmit()
One point of contention in high network loads is the dst_release() performed
when a transmited skb is freed. This is because NIC tx completion calls
dev_kree_skb() long after original call to dev_queue_xmit(skb).
CPU cache is cold and the atomic op in dst_release() stalls. On SMP, this is
quite visible if one CPU is 100% handling softirqs for a network device,
since dst_clone() is done by other cpus, involving cache line ping pongs.
It seems right place to release dst is in dev_hard_start_xmit(), for most
devices but ones that are virtual, and some exceptions.
David Miller suggested to define a new device flag, set in alloc_netdev_mq()
(so that most devices set it at init time), and carefuly unset in devices
which dont want a NULL skb->dst in their ndo_start_xmit().
List of devices that must clear this flag is :
- loopback device, because it calls netif_rx() and quoting Patrick :
"ip_route_input() doesn't accept loopback addresses, so loopback packets
already need to have a dst_entry attached."
- appletalk/ipddp.c : needs skb->dst in its xmit function
- And all devices that call again dev_queue_xmit() from their xmit function
(as some classifiers need skb->dst) : bonding, vlan, macvlan, eql, ifb, hdlc_fr

initiator.
Removes FIP descriptor type checking against ELS type
ELS_FLOGI in fcoe_ctlr_encaps to update a FIP MAC descriptor,
instead now checks against FIP_DT_FLOGI.
I've tested this with available FPMA-only FCoE switch but
since data_src_addr is updated using same old code for
both FPMA and SPMA modes with FIP or pre-FIP links, so added
SPMA mode will work with SPMA-only switch also provided that
switch grants a valid MAC address.

fcoe: consolidates netdev related config and cleanup for spma mode
Currently fcoe_netdev_config adds netdev pkt handler for fcoe pkts,
fcoe_if_create adds netdev pkt handler for fip packets, a secondary
MAC address is added by fcoe_netdev_config and then later cleanup
for these netdev related config/adds is done only during
fcoe_if_destroy and no cleanup done on error during fcoe interface
creation after above netdev config calling in fcoe_if_create.
So this patch adds single func for above mentioned cleanup the
fcoe_netdev_cleanup and then calls this func on either fcoe interface
destroy or exiting from fcoe_if_create due to an error after fcoe/fip
related above netdev config is done.
Moved netdev pkt handler addition code blocks for fip pkts close to
similar code block for foce pkt in fcoe_netdev_config, so that added
fcoe_netdev_cleanup could be called on error from fcoe_netdev_config
to undo these both additions for fcoe/fip pkt handlers. This move
required reference to fcoe_fip_recv in fcoe_netdev_config, so moved
fip related functions fcoe_fip_recv, fcoe_fip_send and
fcoe_update_src_mac above fcoe_netdev_config.
This consolidation will enable spma mode support in next patch to
easily add or delete spma mode mac address beside fixing current
no cleanup issue during error.

ixgbe: Add SAN MAC address to the RAR, return the address to DCB
After acquiring the SAN MAC address from the EEPROM, we need to program it
into one of the RARs. Also, DCB will use this MAC address to run DCBX
commands, so it doesn't have to play musical MAC addresses when things like
bonding enter the picture. So we need to return the MAC address through
the netlink interface to userspace.
This also moves the init_rx_addrs() call out of start_hw() and into
reset_hw(). We shouldn't try to read any of the RAR information before
initializing our internal accounting of the RAR table, which was what
was happening.

net: tx scalability works : trans_start
struct net_device trans_start field is a hot spot on SMP and high performance
devices, particularly multi queues ones, because every transmitter dirties
it. Is main use is tx watchdog and bonding alive checks.
But as most devices dont use NETIF_F_LLTX, we have to lock
a netdev_queue before calling their ndo_start_xmit(). So it makes
sense to move trans_start from net_device to netdev_queue. Its update
will occur on a already present (and in exclusive state) cache line, for
free.
We can do this transition smoothly. An old driver continue to
update dev->trans_start, while an updated one updates txq->trans_start.
Further patches could also put tx_bytes/tx_packets counters in
netdev_queue to avoid dirtying dev->stats (vlan device comes to mind)

bnx2: bnx2_tx_int() optimizations
When using bnx2 in a high transmit load, bnx2_tx_int() cost is pretty high.
There are two reasons.
One is an expensive call to bnx2_get_hw_tx_cons(bnapi) for each freed skb
One is cpu stalls when accessing skb_is_gso(skb) / skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags
because of two cache line misses.
(One to get skb->end/head to compute skb_shinfo(skb),
one to get is_gso/nr_frags)
This patch :
1) avoids calling bnx2_get_hw_tx_cons(bnapi) too many times.
2) makes bnx2_start_xmit() cache is_gso & nr_frags into sw_tx_bd descriptor.
This uses a litle bit more ram (256 longs per device on x86), but helps a lot.
3) uses a prefetch(&skb->end) to speedup dev_kfree_skb(), bringing
cache line that will be needed in skb_release_data()
result is 5 % bandwidth increase in benchmarks, involving UDP or TCP receive
& transmits, when a cpu is dedicated to ksoftirqd for bnx2.
bnx2_tx_int going from 3.33 % cpu to 0.5 % cpu in oprofile
Note : skb_dma_unmap() still very expensive but this is for another patch,
not related to bnx2 (2.9 % of cpu, while it does nothing on x86_32)

second interface, but the server doesn't recognize the device and
