[TCP]: struct tcp_sack_block annotations
Some of the instances of tcp_sack_block are host-endian, some - net-endian.
Define struct tcp_sack_block_wire identical to struct tcp_sack_block
with u32 replaced with __be32; annotate uses of tcp_sack_block replacing
net-endian ones with tcp_sack_block_wire. Change is obviously safe since
for cc(1) __be32 is typedefed to u32.

[NET_SCHED]: Fix fallout from dev->qdisc RCU change
The move of qdisc destruction to a rcu callback broke locking in the
entire qdisc layer by invalidating previously valid assumptions about
the context in which changes to the qdisc tree occur.
The two assumptions were:
- since changes only happen in process context, read_lock doesn't need
bottem half protection. Now invalid since destruction of inner qdiscs,
classifiers, actions and estimators happens in the RCU callback unless
they're manually deleted, resulting in dead-locks when read_lock in
process context is interrupted by write_lock_bh in bottem half context.
- since changes only happen under the RTNL, no additional locking is
necessary for data not used during packet processing (f.e. u32_list).
Again, since destruction now happens in the RCU callback, this assumption
is not valid anymore, causing races while using this data, which can
result in corruption or use-after-free.
Instead of "fixing" this by disabling bottem halfs everywhere and adding
new locks/refcounting, this patch makes these assumptions valid again by
moving destruction back to process context. Since only the dev->qdisc
pointer is protected by RCU, but ->enqueue and the qdisc tree are still
protected by dev->qdisc_lock, destruction of the tree can be performed
immediately and only the final free needs to happen in the rcu callback
to make sure dev_queue_xmit doesn't access already freed memory.

[NET_SCHED]: HTB: fix incorrect use of RB_EMPTY_NODE
Fix incorrect use of RB_EMPTY_NODE in htb_safe_rb_erase, which makes it
skip nodes within the rbtree instead of nodes not in the tree, resulting
in crashes later on.
The root cause for this seems to be the very counter-intuitive behaviour
of the RB_EMPTY_NODE macro, which returns _false_ when the node is empty.

[Bluetooth] Support create connection cancel command
In case of non-blocking connects it is possible that the last user
of an ACL link quits before the connection has been fully established.
This will lead to a race condition where the internal state of a
connection is closed, but the actual link has been established and is
active. In case of Bluetooth 1.2 and later devices it is possible to
call create connection cancel to abort the connect. For older devices
the disconnect timer will be used to trigger the needed disconnect.
[Bluetooth] Read local version information on device init
The local version information are needed to identify certain feature
sets of devices. They must be read on device init and stored for later
use. It is also possible to access them through the device model.
[Bluetooth] Integrate services into the driver model
This patch integrates the services of the Bluetooth protocols RFCOMM,
BNEP and HIDP into the driver model. This makes it possible to assign
the virtual TTY, network and input devices to a specific Bluetooth
connection.
