This patch (as1670) fixes a regression caused by commit 6402c796d3b4205d3d7296157956c5100a05d7d6 (USB: EHCI: work around
silicon bug in Intel's EHCI controllers). The workaround goes through
two IAA cycles for each QH being unlinked. During the first cycle,
the QH is not added to the async_iaa list (because it isn't fully gone
from the hardware yet), which means that list will be empty.
Unfortunately, I forgot to update the IAA watchdog timer routine. It
thinks that an empty async_iaa list means the timer expiration was an
error, which isn't true any more. This problem didn't show up during
initial testing because the controllers being tested all had working
IAA interrupts. But not all controllers do, and when the watchdog
timer expires, the empty-list check prevents the second IAA cycle from
starting. As a result, URB unlinks never complete. The check needs
to be removed.
Among the symptoms of the regression are processes stuck in D wait
states and hangs during system shutdown.

This patch (as1663) fixes a regression caused by commit 6e0c3339a6f19d748f16091d0a05adeb1e1f822b (USB: EHCI: unlink one async
QH at a time). In order to avoid keeping multiple QHs in an unusable
intermediate state, that commit changed unlink_empty_async() so that
it unlinks only one empty QH at a time.
However, when the EHCI root hub is suspended, _all_ async QHs need to
be unlinked. ehci_bus_suspend() used to do this by calling
unlink_empty_async(), but now this only unlinks one of the QHs, not
all of them.
The symptom is that when the root hub is resumed, USB communications
don't work for some period of time. This is because ehci-hcd doesn't
realize it needs to restart the async schedule; it assumes that
because some QHs are already on the schedule, the schedule must be
running.
The easiest way to fix the problem is add a new function that unlinks
all the async QHs when the root hub is suspended.
This patch should be applied to all kernels that have the 6e0c3339a6f1

According to XHCI specification (5.5.2.1) the IP is bit 0 and IE is bit 1
of IMAN register. Previously their definitions were reversed.
Even though there are no ill effects being observed from the swapped
definitions (because IMAN_IP is RW1C and in legacy PCI case we come in
with it already set to 1 so it was clearing itself even though we were
setting IMAN_IE instead of IMAN_IP), we should still correct the values.
This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.36, that
contain the commit 4e833c0b87a30798e67f06120cecebef6ee9644c "xhci: don't
re-enable IE constantly".
The increment of "to" in copy_user_handle_tail() will have incremented
before a failure has been noted. This causes us to skip a byte in the
failure case.
Only do the increment when assured there is no failure.
Currently tick_check_broadcast_device doesn't reject clock_event_devices
with CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DUMMY, and may select them in preference to real
hardware if they have a higher rating value. In this situation, the
dummy timer is responsible for broadcasting to itself, and the core
clockevents code may attempt to call non-existent callbacks for
programming the dummy, eventually leading to a panic.
This patch makes tick_check_broadcast_device always reject dummy timers,
preventing this problem.

A number of problems can occur due to races between
resync/recovery and discard.
- if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is
happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event
before all of the individual discard requests have completed
(so some devices are still locked, but not all).
Since commit ca64cae96037de16e4af92678814f5d4bf0c1c65
md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished.
this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device,
so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other
devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared.
This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up.
- If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward
time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks
in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is
one).
So:
- keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have
completed their discard request
- make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at
the same time.
This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is
happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a
discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up
the discard at the appropriate time.
Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for
any -stable kernel since 3.7.
MD RAID5: Fix kernel oops when RAID4/5/6 is used via device-mapper
Commit a9add5d (v3.8-rc1) added blktrace calls to the RAID4/5/6 driver.
However, when device-mapper is used to create RAID4/5/6 arrays, the
mddev->gendisk and mddev->queue fields are not setup. Therefore, calling
things like trace_block_bio_remap will cause a kernel oops. This patch
conditionalizes those calls on whether the proper fields exist to make
the calls. (Device-mapper will call trace_block_bio_remap on its own.)
This patch is suitable for the 3.8.y stable kernel.
It has been possible for handle_stripe_dirtying to be called
when there isn't actually any work to do.
It then calls schedule_reconstruction() which will set R5_LOCKED
on the parity block(s) even when nothing else is happening.
This then causes problems in do_release_stripe().
So add checks to schedule_reconstruction() so that if it doesn't
find anything to do, it just aborts.
This bug was introduced in v3.7, so the patch is suitable
for -stable kernels since then.
A problem was found on PC's with the SB700 chipset: The PC fails to
load BIOS after running the 3.8.x kernel until the power is completely
cut off. It occurs in all 3.8.x versions and the mainline version as of
2/4. The issue does not occur with the 3.7.x builds.
There are two methods for accessing the watchdog registers.
1. Re-programming a resource address obtained by allocate_resource()
to chipset.
2. Use the direct memory-mapped IO access.
The method 1 can be used by all the chipsets (SP5100, SB7x0, SB8x0 or
later). However, experience shows that only PC with the SB8x0 (or
later) chipsets can use the method 2.
This patch removes the method 1, because the critical problem was found.
That's why the watchdog timer was able to be used on SP5100 and SB7x0
chipsets until now.
The AcpiMmioSel bit is bit 1 in the AcpiMmioEn register, but the current
sp5100_tco driver is using bit 2.
See 2.3.3 Power Management (PM) Registers page 150 of the
AMD SB800-Series Southbridges Register Reference Guide [1].
AcpiMmioEn - RW – 8/16/32 bits - [PM_Reg: 24h]
Field Name Bits Default Description
AcpiMMioDecodeEn 0 0b Set to 1 to enable AcpiMMio space.
AcpiMMIoSel 1 0b Set AcpiMMio registers to be memory-mapped or IO-mapped space.
0: Memory-mapped space
1: I/O-mapped space
The sp5100_tco driver expects zero as a value of AcpiMmioSel (bit 1).
Fortunately, no problems were caused by this typo, because the default
value of the undocumented misused bit 2 seems to be zero.
However, the sp5100_tco driver should use the correct bitmask value.
Commit f0dc117abdfa ("IPoIB: Fix TX queue lockup with mixed UD/CM
traffic") attempts to solve an issue where unprocessed UD send
completions can deadlock the netdev.
The patch doesn't fully resolve the issue because if more than half
the tx_outstanding's were UD and all of the destinations are RC
reachable, arming the CQ doesn't solve the issue.
This patch uses the IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS on the
ib_req_notify_cq(). If the rc is above 0, the UD send cq completion
callback is called directly to re-arm the send completion timer.
This issue is seen in very large parallel filesystem deployments
and the patch has been shown to correct the issue.

In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.
Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
this case.
This can be easily replicated via:
mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb
Currently when converting extent to initialized, we have to decide
whether to zeroout part/all of the uninitialized extent in order to
avoid extent tree growing rapidly.
The decision is made by comparing the size of the extent with the
configurable value s_extent_max_zeroout_kb which is in kibibytes units.
However when converting it to number of blocks we currently use it as it
was in bytes. This is obviously bug and it will result in ext4 _never_
zeroout extents, but rather always split and convert parts to
initialized while leaving the rest uninitialized in default setting.
Fix this by using s_extent_max_zeroout_kb as kibibytes.
A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg
size (> 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups
to overflow. This was detected by PaX security patchset:
This commit fixes a wrong return value of the number of the allocated
blocks in ext4_split_extent. When the length of blocks we want to
allocate is greater than the length of the current extent, we return a
wrong number. Let's see what happens in the following case when we
call ext4_split_extent().
map: [48, 72]
ex: [32, 64, u]
'ex' will be split into two parts:
ex1: [32, 47, u]
ex2: [48, 64, w]
'map->m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24. But
the real length is 16. So it should be fixed.
Meanwhile in this commit we use right length of the allocated blocks
when get_reserved_cluster_alloc in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents
is called.
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() didn't get a reference to journal_head it
was working with. This is OK in most of the cases since the journal head
should be attached to a transaction but in rare occasions when we are
journalling data, __ext4_journalled_writepage() can race with
jbd2_journal_invalidatepage() stripping buffers from a page and thus
journal head can be freed under hands of jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata().
Fix the problem by getting own journal head reference in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() (and also in jbd2_journal_set_triggers()
which can possibly have the same issue).

We've had several reports of people attempting to mount Windows 8 shares
and getting failures with a return code of -EINVAL. The default sec=
mode changed recently to sec=ntlmssp. With that, we expect and parse a
SPNEGO blob from the server in the NEGOTIATE reply.
The current decode_negTokenInit function first parses all of the
mechTypes and then tries to parse the rest of the negTokenInit reply.
The parser however currently expects a mechListMIC or nothing to follow the
mechTypes, but Windows 8 puts a mechToken field there instead to carry
some info for the new NegoEx stuff.
In practice, we don't do anything with the fields after the mechTypes
anyway so I don't see any real benefit in continuing to parse them.
This patch just has the kernel ignore the fields after the mechTypes.
We'll probably need to reinstate some of this if we ever want to support
NegoEx.

A deadlock was found in the prefetch code in the dm verity map
function. This patch fixes this by transferring the prefetch
to a worker thread and skipping it completely if kmalloc fails.
If generic_make_request is called recursively, it queues the I/O
request on the current->bio_list without making the I/O request
and returns. The routine making the recursive call cannot wait
for the I/O to complete.
The deadlock occurs when one thread grabs the bufio_client
mutex and waits for an I/O to complete but the I/O is queued
on another thread's current->bio_list and is waiting to get
the mutex held by the first thread.
The fix recognises that prefetching is not essential. If memory
can be allocated, it queues the prefetch request to the worker thread,
but if not, it does nothing.

Fix a bug in dm_btree_remove that could leave leaf values with incorrect
reference counts. The effect of this was that removal of a shared block
could result in the space maps thinking the block was no longer used.
More concretely, if you have a thin device and a snapshot of it, sending
a discard to a shared region of the thin could corrupt the snapshot.
Thinp uses a 2-level nested btree to store it's mappings. This first
level is indexed by thin device, and the second level by logical
block.
Often when we're removing an entry in this mapping tree we need to
rebalance nodes, which can involve shadowing them, possibly creating a
copy if the block is shared. If we do create a copy then children of
that node need to have their reference counts incremented. In this
way reference counts percolate down the tree as shared trees diverge.
The rebalance functions were incrementing the children at the
appropriate time, but they were always assuming the children were
internal nodes. This meant the leaf values (in our case packed
block/flags entries) were not being incremented.

On some revisions of AT91 SoCs, the RTC IMR register is not working.
Instead of elaborating a workaround for that specific SoC or IP version,
we simply use a software variable to store the Interrupt Mask Register
and modify it for each enabling/disabling of an interrupt. The overhead
of this is negligible anyway.
The interrupt mask register (IMR) for the RTC is broken on the AT91SAM9x5
sub-family of SoCs (good overview of the members here:
http://www.eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/AT91SAM9x5 ). The "user visible
effect" is the RTC doesn't work.
That sub-family is less than two years old and only has devicetree (DT)
support and came online circa lk 3.7 . The dust is yet to settle on the
DT stuff at least for AT91 SoCs (translation: lots of stuff is still
broken, so much that it is hard to know where to start).
The fix in the patch is pretty simple: just shadow the silicon IMR
register with a variable in the driver. Some older SoCs (pre-DT) use the
the rtc-at91rm9200 driver (e.g. obviously the AT91RM9200) and they should
not be impacted by the change. There shouldn't be a large volume of
interrupts associated with a RTC.

When KMS has parsed an EDID "detailed timing", it leaves the frame rate
zeroed. Consecutive (debug-) output of that mode thus yields 0 for
vsync. This simple fix also speeds up future invocations of
drm_mode_vrefresh().
While it is debatable whether this qualifies as a -stable fix I'd apply
it for consistency's sake; drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes()
does the same thing already for all probed modes.
EDID spreads some values across multiple bytes; bit-fiddling is needed
to retrieve these. The current code to parse "detailed timings" has a
cut&paste error that results in a vsync offset of at most 15 lines
instead of 63.
See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDID
and in the "EDID Detailed Timing Descriptor" see bytes 10+11 show why
that needs to be a left shift.

asle backlight update is know to get fired (through some smm magic)
when writing specific backlight control registers. So the possibility
of suffering from races is rather real.
Until those races are fixed I don't think it makes sense to try

Changing the overwrite mode for the ring buffer via the trace
option only sets the normal buffer. But the snapshot buffer could
swap with it, and then the snapshot would be in non overwrite mode
and the normal buffer would be in overwrite mode, even though the
option flag states otherwise.
Keep the two buffers overwrite modes in sync.

Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace
calls to rcu_read_lock(), RCU access in function tracing is done
with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched()
for updates and not a synchronize_rcu().
Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after
a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the
hash. But call_rcu() is used. Fix this by using call_rcu_sched().
Also fix the usage to use hlist_del_rcu() instead of hlist_del().

Although the swap is wrapped with a spin_lock, the assignment
of the temp buffer used to swap is not within that lock.
It needs to be moved into that lock, otherwise two swaps
happening on two different CPUs, can end up using the wrong
temp buffer to assign in the swap.
Luckily, all current callers of the swap function appear to have
their own locks. But in case something is added that allows two
different callers to call the swap, then there's a chance that
this race can trigger and corrupt the buffers.
New code is coming soon that will allow for this race to trigger.
I've Cc'd stable, so this bug will not show up if someone backports
one of the changes that can trigger this bug.

Dave Jones found another /proc issue with his Trinity tool: thanks to
the namespace model, we can have multiple /proc dentries that point to
the same inode, aliasing directories in /proc/<pid>/net/ for example.
This ends up being a total disaster, because it acts like hardlinked
directories, and causes locking problems. We rely on the topological
sort of the inodes pointed to by dentries, and if we have aliased
directories, that odering becomes unreliable.
In short: don't do this. Multiple dentries with the same (directory)
inode is just a bad idea, and the namespace code should never have
exposed things this way. But we're kind of stuck with it.
This solves things by just always allocating a new inode during /proc
dentry lookup, instead of using "iget_locked()" to look up existing
inodes by superblock and number. That actually simplies the code a bit,
at the cost of potentially doing more inode [de]allocations.
That said, the inode lookup wasn't free either (and did a lot of locking
of inodes), so it is probably not that noticeable. We could easily keep
the old lookup model for non-directory entries, but rather than try to
be excessively clever this just implements the minimal and simplest
workaround for the problem.

Creation of individual mixer controls may fail, but that shouldn't cause
the entire mixer creation to fail. Even worse, if the mixer creation
fails, that will error out the entire device probing.
All the functions called by parse_audio_unit() should return -EINVAL if
they find descriptors that are unsupported or believed to be malformed,
so we can safely handle this error code as a non-fatal condition in
snd_usb_mixer_controls().
That fixes a long standing bug which is commonly worked around by
adding quirks which make the driver ignore entire interfaces. Some of
them might now be unnecessary.
In check_input_term() and parse_audio_feature_unit(), propagate the
error value that has been returned by a failing function instead of
-EINVAL. That helps cleaning up the error pathes in the mixer.
UAC2_EXTENSION_UNIT_V2 differs from UAC1_EXTENSION_UNIT, but can be handled in
the same way when parsing the unit. Otherwise parse_audio_unit() fails when it
sees an extension unit on a UAC2 device.
UAC2_EXTENSION_UNIT_V2 is outside the range allocated by UAC1.
There is a typo in convert_to_spdif_status() about checking the
emphasis IEC958 status bit. It should check the given value instead
of the resultant value.
Using TX push when notifying the NIC of multiple new descriptors in
the ring will very occasionally cause the TX DMA engine to re-use an
old descriptor. This can result in a duplicated or partly duplicated
packet (new headers with old data), or an IOMMU page fault. This does
not happen when the pushed descriptor is the only one written.
TX push also provides little latency benefit when a packet requires
more than one descriptor.

efx_device_detach_sync() locks all TX queues before marking the device

We must only ever stop TX queues when they are full or the net device
is not 'ready' so far as the net core, and specifically the watchdog,
is concerned. Otherwise, the watchdog may fire *immediately* if no
packets have been added to the queue in the last 5 seconds.
The device is ready if all the following are true:
(a) It has a qdisc
(b) It is marked present
(c) It is running
(d) The link is reported up
(a) and (c) are normally true, and must not be changed by a driver.
(d) is under our control, but fake link changes may disturb userland.
This leaves (b). We already mark the device absent during reset
and self-test, but we need to do the same during MTU changes and ring
reallocation. We don't need to do this when the device is brought
down because then (c) is already false.

This patch introduces a constant limit of the fragment queue hash
table bucket list lengths. Currently the limit 128 is choosen somewhat
arbitrary and just ensures that we can fill up the fragment cache with
empty packets up to the default ip_frag_high_thresh limits. It should
just protect from list iteration eating considerable amounts of cpu.
If we reach the maximum length in one hash bucket a warning is printed.
This is implemented on the caller side of inet_frag_find to distinguish
between the different users of inet_fragment.c.
I dropped the out of memory warning in the ipv4 fragment lookup path,
because we already get a warning by the slab allocator.

When an ICMP ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED (or ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG) message finds a
LISTEN socket, and this socket is currently owned by the user, we
set TCP_MTU_REDUCED_DEFERRED flag in listener tsq_flags.
This is bad because if we clone the parent before it had a chance to
clear the flag, the child inherits the tsq_flags value, and next
tcp_release_cb() on the child will decrement sk_refcnt.
Result is that we might free a live TCP socket, as reported by

commit bd329e1 ("net: cdc_ncm: do not bind to NCM compatible MBIM devices")
introduced a new policy, preferring MBIM for dual NCM/MBIM functions if
the cdc_mbim driver was enabled. This caused a regression for users
wanting to use NCM.
Devices implementing NCM backwards compatibility according to section
3.2 of the MBIM v1.0 specification allow either NCM or MBIM on a single
USB function, using different altsettings. The cdc_ncm and cdc_mbim
drivers will both probe such functions, and must agree on a common
policy for selecting either MBIM or NCM. Until now, this policy has
been set at build time based on CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM.
Use a module parameter to set the system policy at runtime, allowing the
user to prefer NCM on systems with the cdc_mbim driver.

I'm trying to send big chunks of memory from application address space via
TCP socket using vmsplice + splice like this
mem = mmap(128Mb);
vmsplice(pipe[1], mem); /* splice memory into pipe */
splice(pipe[0], tcp_socket); /* send it into network */
When I'm lucky and a huge page splices into the pipe and then into the socket
_and_ client and server ends of the TCP connection are on the same host,
communicating via lo, the whole connection gets stuck! The sending queue
becomes full and app stops writing/splicing more into it, but the receiving
queue remains empty, and that's why.
The __skb_fill_page_desc observes a tail page of a huge page and erroneously
propagates its page->pfmemalloc value onto socket (the pfmemalloc on tail pages
contain garbage). Then this skb->pfmemalloc leaks through lo and due to the
no packets reach the socket. Even TCP re-transmits are dropped by this, as skb
cloning clones the pfmemalloc flag as well.
That said, here's the proper page->pfmemalloc propagation onto socket: we
must check the huge-page's head page only, other pages' pfmemalloc and mapping
values do not contain what is expected in this place. However, I'm not sure
whether this fix is _complete_, since pfmemalloc propagation via lo also
oesn't look great.
Both, bit propagation from page to skb and this check in sk_filter, were
introduced by c48a11c7 (netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb), in v3.5 so

commit bd877e4 ("net: qmi_wwan: use a single bind function for
all device types") made Gobi 1K devices fail probing.
Using the number of endpoints in the default altsetting to decide
whether the function use one or two interfaces is wrong. Other
altsettings may provide more endpoints.
With Gobi 1K devices, USB interface #3's altsetting is 0 by default, but
altsetting 0 only provides one interrupt endpoint and is not sufficent
for QMI. Altsetting 1 provides all 3 endpoints required for qmi_wwan
and works with QMI. Gobi 1K layout for intf#3 is:
Interface Descriptor: 255/255/255
bInterfaceNumber 3
bAlternateSetting 0
Endpoint Descriptor: Interrupt IN
Interface Descriptor: 255/255/255
bInterfaceNumber 3
bAlternateSetting 1
Endpoint Descriptor: Interrupt IN
Endpoint Descriptor: Bulk IN
Endpoint Descriptor: Bulk OUT
Prior to commit bd877e4, we would call usbnet_get_endpoints
before giving up finding enough endpoints. Removing the early
endpoint number test and the strict functional descriptor
requirement allow qmi_wwan_bind to continue until
usbnet_get_endpoints has made the final attempt to collect
endpoints. This restores the behaviour from before commit bd877e4 without losing the added benefit of using a single bind
function.
The driver has always required a CDC Union functional descriptor
for two-interface functions. Using the existence of this
descriptor to detect two-interface functions is the logically
correct method.

When SCTP is done processing a duplicate cookie chunk, it tries
to delete a newly created association. For that, it has to set
the right association for the side-effect processing to work.
However, when it uses the SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC command, that performs
more work then really needed (like hashing the associationa and
assigning it an id) and there is no point to do that only to
delete the association as a next step. In fact, it also creates
an impossible condition where an association may be found by
the getsockopt() call, and that association is empty. This
causes a crash in some sctp getsockopts.
The solution is rather simple. We simply use SCTP_CMD_SET_ASOC
command that doesn't have all the overhead and does exactly
what we need.

This patch (as1660) works around a hardware problem present in some
(if not all) Intel EHCI controllers. After a QH has been unlinked
from the async schedule and the corresponding IAA interrupt has
occurred, the controller is not supposed access the QH and its qTDs.
There certainly shouldn't be any more DMA writes to those structures.
Nevertheless, Intel's controllers have been observed to perform a
final writeback to the QH's overlay region and to the most recent qTD.
For more information and a test program to determine whether this
problem is present in a particular controller, see
This patch works around the problem by always waiting for two IAA
cycles when unlinking an async QH. The extra IAA delay gives the
controller time to perform its final writeback.
Surprisingly enough, the effects of this silicon bug have gone
undetected until quite recently. More through luck than anything
else, it hasn't caused any apparent problems. However, it does
interact badly with the path that follows this one, so it needs to be
addressed.
This is the first part of a fix for the regression reported at:
It caused problems in the 3.8-stable series, but 3.9-rc is just fine.

The dcb netlink interface leaks stack memory in various places:
* perm_addr[] buffer is only filled at max with 12 of the 32 bytes but
copied completely,
* no in-kernel driver fills all fields of an IEEE 802.1Qaz subcommand,
so we're leaking up to 58 bytes for ieee_ets structs, up to 136 bytes
for ieee_pfc structs, etc.,
* the same is true for CEE -- no in-kernel driver fills the whole
struct,
Prevent all of the above stack info leaks by properly initializing the
buffers/structures involved.

Initialize the mac address buffer with 0 as the driver specific function
will probably not fill the whole buffer. In fact, all in-kernel drivers
fill only ETH_ALEN of the MAX_ADDR_LEN bytes, i.e. 6 of the 32 possible
bytes. Therefore we currently leak 26 bytes of stack memory to userland
via the netlink interface.

The bridging code discloses heap and stack bytes via the RTM_GETMDB
netlink interface and via the notify messages send to group RTNLGRP_MDB
afer a successful add/del.
Fix both cases by initializing all unset members/padding bytes with
memset(0).

The frames for which rx_handlers return RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED are no longer
counted as dropped. They are counted as successfully received by
'netif_receive_skb'.
This allows network interface drivers to correctly update their RX-OK and
RX-DRP counters based on the result of 'netif_receive_skb'.

When we have a large number of static label mappings that spill across
the netlink message boundary we fail to properly save our state in the
netlink_callback struct which causes us to repeat the same listings.
This patch fixes this problem by saving the state correctly between
calls to the NetLabel static label netlink "dumpit" routines.

Macvlan already supports hw address filters. Set the IFF_UNICAST_FLT
so that it doesn't needlesly enter PROMISC mode when macvlans are
stacked.
