RDS: Fix corrupted rds_mrs
On second look at this bug (OFED #2002), it seems that the
collision is not with the retransmission queue (packet acked
by the peer), but with the local send completion. A theoretical
sequence of events (from time t0 to t3) is thought to be as
follows,
The problem with the rds_rdma_drop_keys() is it could
remove a mr's refcount more than its due (i.e. repeatedly
as long as it still remains in the tree (mr->r_refcount > 0)).
Theoretically it should remove only one reference - reference
by the tree.
/* Release any MRs associated with this socket */
while ((node = rb_first(&rs->rs_rdma_keys))) {
mr = container_of(node, struct rds_mr, r_rb_node);
if (mr->r_trans == rs->rs_transport)
mr->r_invalidate = 0;
rds_mr_put(mr);
}
I think the correct way of doing it is to remove the mr from
the tree and rds_destroy_mr it first, then a rds_mr_put()
to decrement its reference count by one. Whichever thread
holds the last reference will free the mr via rds_mr_put().

offload. When checksum offload is enabled the driver will negotiate
IPv4 and IPv6 offload with the firmware separately and enable what

The device stats, available through ethtool, will display which

special value of 2.
An alternative would be to ignore the forwarding switch alltogether
and solely accept RAs based on the value of accept_ra. However, I
found that if not intended, accepting RAs as a router can lead to
strange unwanted behavior therefore we it seems wise to only do so
if the user explicitely asks for this behavior.

net: dev_add_pack() & __dev_remove_pack() changes
Add a small helper ptype_head() to get the head to manipulate
dev_add_pack() & __dev_remove_pack() can use a spinlock without
blocking BH, since softirq use RCU, and these functions are run from
process context only.

mac80211: only cancel software-based scans on suspend
Otherwise the hardware scan handler could access an invalid scan request
structure. The driver should cancel any pending hardware scans during
the suspend process anyway, so also add a warning if the hardware scan
is still pending when the device resumes.

net: skbuff.c cleanup
(skb->data - skb->head) can be changed by skb_headroom(skb)
Remove some uses of NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET, using
(skb_end_pointer(skb) - skb->head) or
(skb_tail_pointer(skb) - skb->head) : compiler does the right thing,
and this is more readable for us ;)
(struct skb_shared_info *) casts in pskb_expand_head() to help memcpy()
to use aligned moves.

skge: add GRO support
- napi_gro_flush() is exported from net/core/dev.c, to avoid
an irq_save/irq_restore in the packet receive path.
- use napi_gro_receive() instead of netif_receive_skb()
- use napi_gro_flush() before calling __napi_complete()
- turn on NETIF_F_GRO by default
- Tested on a Marvell 88E8001 Gigabit NIC

drivers/net/can/mscan/mpc5xxx_can.c: Add of_node_put to avoid memory leak
Add a call to of_node_put in the error handling code following a call to
of_find_matching_node.
This patch also moves the existing call to of_node_put after the call to
iounmap in the error handling code, to make it possible to jump to
of_node_put without doing iounmap. These appear to be disjoint operations,
so the ordering doesn't matter.
This patch furthermore changes the -ENODEV result in the error handling
code for of_find_matching_node to a return of 0, as found in the error
handling code for of_iomap, because the return type of the function is
unsigned.
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
*x =
(of_find_node_by_path
|of_find_node_by_name
|of_find_node_by_phandle
|of_get_parent
|of_get_next_parent
|of_get_next_child
|of_find_compatible_node
|of_match_node
|of_find_node_by_type
|of_find_node_with_property
|of_find_matching_node
|of_parse_phandle
)(...);

if (x == NULL) S
