Bluetooth: Remove redundant hdev->parent field
We initialize the "struct device" in hci_alloc_dev() for a long time now
so we can access hdev->dev.parent directly. Hence, we can drop the
temporary field hdev->parent which is used in no other place than
hci_add_sysfs().
SET_HCIDEV_DEV() is never called after registering a device by the
drivers so we do not overwrite internal device-state. Furthermore,
hdev->dev is initialized to 0 by kzalloc() inside hci_alloc_dev() so the
default behavior with dev.parent = NULL is kept.

Section 9.23.3.5 of IEEE 80211s standard describes the protection rules for

non-HT mixed mode - is selected if any non-HT peers are present in our MBSS.
20MHz-protection mode - is selected if all peers in our 20/40MHz MBSS support
HT and atleast one HT20 peer is present.

netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix explicit helper attachment and NAT
Explicit helper attachment via the CT target is broken with NAT
if non-standard ports are used. This problem was hidden behind
the automatic helper assignment routine. Thus, it becomes more
noticeable now that we can disable the automatic helper assignment
with Eric Leblond's:
9e8ac5a netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment
Basically, nf_conntrack_alter_reply asks for looking up the helper
up if NAT is enabled. Unfortunately, we don't have the conntrack
template at that point anymore.
Since we don't want to rely on the automatic helper assignment,
we can skip the second look-up and stick to the helper that was
attached by iptables. With the CT target, the user is in full
control of helper attachment, thus, the policy is to trust what
the user explicitly configures via iptables (no automatic magic
anymore).
Interestingly, this bug was hidden by the automatic helper look-up
code. But it can be easily trigger if you attach the helper in
a non-standard port, eg.
I added the IPS_HELPER_BIT that allows us to differenciate between
a helper that has been explicitly attached and those that have been
automatically assigned. I didn't come up with a better solution
(having backward compatibility in mind).

This refreshes the "timeout" attribute in existing expectations if one is
given.
The use case for this would be for userspace helpers to extend the lifetime
of the expectation when requested, as this is not possible right now
without deleting/recreating the expectation.
I use this specifically for forwarding DCERPC traffic through:
DCERPC has a port mapper daemon that chooses a (seemingly) random port for
future traffic to go to. We expect this traffic (with a reasonable
timeout), but sometimes the port mapper will tell the client to continue
using the same port. This allows us to extend the expectation accordingly.

Allow master and backup servers to use many threads
for sync traffic. Add sysctl var "sync_ports" to define the
number of threads. Every thread will use single UDP port,
thread 0 will use the default port 8848 while last thread
will use port 8848+sync_ports-1.
The sync traffic for connections is scheduled to many
master threads based on the cp address but one connection is
always assigned to same thread to avoid reordering of the
sync messages.
Remove ip_vs_sync_switch_mode because this check
for sync mode change is still risky. Instead, check for mode
change under sync_buff_lock.
Make sure the backup socks do not block on reading.
Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for helping in all tests.
Add two new sysctl vars to control the sync rate with the
main idea to reduce the rate for connection templates because
currently it depends on the packet rate for controlled connections.
This mechanism should be useful also for normal connections
with high traffic.
sync_refresh_period: in seconds, difference in reported connection
timer that triggers new sync message. It can be used to
avoid sync messages for the specified period (or half of
the connection timeout if it is lower) if connection state
is not changed from last sync.
sync_retries: integer, 0..3, defines sync retries with period of
sync_refresh_period/8. Useful to protect against loss of
sync messages.
Allow sysctl_sync_threshold to be used with
sysctl_sync_period=0, so that only single sync message is sent
if sync_refresh_period is also 0.
Add new field "sync_endtime" in connection structure to
hold the reported time when connection expires. The 2 lowest
bits will represent the retry count.
As the sysctl_sync_period now can be 0 use ACCESS_ONCE to
avoid division by zero.
Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for being patient with me,
for his extensive reports and helping in all tests.
High rate of sync messages in master can lead to
overflowing the socket buffer and dropping the messages.
Fixed sleep of 1 second without wakeup events is not suitable
for loaded masters,
Use delayed_work to schedule sending for queued messages
and limit the delay to IPVS_SYNC_SEND_DELAY (20ms). This will
reduce the rate of wakeups but to avoid sending long bursts we
wakeup the master thread after IPVS_SYNC_WAKEUP_RATE (8) messages.
Add hard limit for the queued messages before sending
by using "sync_qlen_max" sysctl var. It defaults to 1/32 of
the memory pages but actually represents number of messages.
It will protect us from allocating large parts of memory
when the sending rate is lower than the queuing rate.
As suggested by Pablo, add new sysctl var
"sync_sock_size" to configure the SNDBUF (master) or
RCVBUF (slave) socket limit. Default value is 0 (preserve
system defaults).
Change the master thread to detect and block on
SNDBUF overflow, so that we do not drop messages when
the socket limit is low but the sync_qlen_max limit is
not reached. On ENOBUFS or other errors just drop the
messages.
Change master thread to enter TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
state early, so that we do not miss wakeups due to messages or
kthread_should_stop event.

This framework configures the bus topology from device tree data. The
mechanics of switching the multiplexer is left to device specific
drivers.
The follow-on patch contains a multiplexer driven by GPIO lines.

netdev/of/phy: New function: of_mdio_find_bus().
Add of_mdio_find_bus() which allows an mii_bus to be located given its
associated the device tree node.
This is needed by the follow-on patch to add a driver for MDIO bus
multiplexers.
The of_mdiobus_register() function is modified so that the device tree
node is recorded in the mii_bus. Then we can find it again by
iterating over all mdio_bus_class devices.
Because the OF device tree has now become an integral part of the
kernel, this can live in mdio_bus.c (which contains the needed
mdio_bus_class structure) instead of of_mdio.c.

isdn/capi: elliminate capincci_find() in non-middleware case
If Kernel CAPI is compiled without CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI_MIDDLEWARE,
the structure retrieved via capincci_find() is never actually
used, so don't compile that function in that case.

isdn/gigaset: improve error handling querying firmware version
An out-of-place "OK" response to the "AT+GMR" (get firmware version)
command turns out to be, more often than not, a delayed response to
a previous command rather than an actual error, so continue waiting
for the version number in that case.

net: compare_ether_addr[_64bits]() has no ordering
Neither compare_ether_addr() nor compare_ether_addr_64bits()
(as it can fall back to the former) have comparison semantics
like memcmp() where the sign of the return value indicates sort
order. We had a bug in the wireless code due to a blind memcmp
replacement because of this.
A cursory look suggests that the wireless bug was the only one
due to this semantic difference.

skb: Add inline helper for getting the skb end offset from head
With the recent changes for how we compute the skb truesize it occurs to me
we are probably going to have a lot of calls to skb_end_pointer -
skb->head. Instead of running all over the place doing that it would make
more sense to just make it a separate inline skb_end_offset(skb) that way
we can return the correct value without having gcc having to do all the
optimization to cancel out skb->head - skb->head.

skb: Drop bad code from pskb_expand_head
The fast-path for pskb_expand_head contains a check where the size plus the
unaligned size of skb_shared_info is compared against the size of the data
buffer. This code path has two issues. First is the fact that after the
recent changes by Eric Dumazet to __alloc_skb and build_skb the shared info
is always placed in the optimal spot for a buffer size making this check
unnecessary. The second issue is the fact that the check doesn't take into
account the aligned size of shared info. As a result the code burns cycles
doing a memcpy with nothing actually being shifted.

cdc_ether: Ignore bogus union descriptor for RNDIS devices
Some RNDIS devices include a bogus CDC Union descriptor pointing
to non-existing interfaces. The RNDIS code is already prepared
to handle devices without a CDC Union descriptor by hardwiring
the driver to use interfaces 0 and 1, which is correct for the
devices with the bogus descriptor as well. So we can reuse the
existing workaround.

bnx2x: bug fix when loading after SAN boot
This is a bug fix for an "interface fails to load" issue.
The issue occurs when bnx2x driver loads after UNDI driver was previously
loaded over the chip. In such a scenario the UNDI driver is loaded and operates
in the pre-boot kernel, within its own specific host memory address range.
When the pre-boot stage is complete, the real kernel is loaded, in a new and
distinct host memory address range. The transition from pre-boot stage to boot
is asynchronous from UNDI point of view.
A race condition occurs when UNDI driver triggers a DMAE transaction to valid
host addresses in the pre-boot stage, when control is diverted to the real
kernel. This results in access to illegal addresses by our HW as the addresses
which were valid in the preboot stage are no longer considered valid.
Specifically, the 'was_error' bit in the pci glue of our device is set. This
causes all following pci transactions from chip to host to timeout (in
accordance to the pci spec).
