tipc: Prevent loss of fragmented messages over unicast links
Modifies unicast link endpoint logic so an incoming fragmented message
is not lost if reassembly cannot begin because there is no buffer big
enough to hold the entire reassembled message. The link endpoint now
ignores the first fragment completely, which causes the sending node to
retransmit the first fragment so that reassembly can be re-attempted.
Previously, the sender would have had no reason to retransmit the 1st
fragment, so we would never have a chance to re-try the allocation.

tipc: Major redesign of broadcast link ACK/NACK algorithms
Completely redesigns broadcast link ACK and NACK mechanisms to prevent
spurious retransmit requests in dual LAN networks, and to prevent the
broadcast link from stalling due to the failure of a receiving node to
acknowledge receiving a broadcast message or request its retransmission.
Note: These changes only impact the timing of when ACK and NACK messages
are sent, and not the basic broadcast link protocol itself, so inter-
operability with nodes using the "classic" algorithms is maintained.
The revised algorithms are as follows:
1) An explicit ACK message is still sent after receiving 16 in-sequence
messages, and implicit ACK information continues to be carried in other
unicast link message headers (including link state messages). However,
the timing of explicit ACKs is now based on the receiving node's absolute
network address rather than its relative network address to ensure that
the failure of another node does not delay the ACK beyond its 16 message
target.
2) A NACK message is now typically sent only when a message gap persists
for two consecutive incoming link state messages; this ensures that a
suspected gap is not confirmed until both LANs in a dual LAN network have
had an opportunity to deliver the message, thereby preventing spurious NACKs.
A NACK message can also be generated by the arrival of a single link state
message, if the deferred queue is so big that the current message gap
cannot be the result of "normal" mis-ordering due to the use of dual LANs
(or one LAN using a bonded interface). Since link state messages typically
arrive at different nodes at different times the problem of multiple nodes
issuing identical NACKs simultaneously is inherently avoided.
3) Nodes continue to "peek" at NACK messages sent by other nodes. If
another node requests retransmission of a message gap suspected (but not
yet confirmed) by the peeking node, the peeking node forgets about the
gap and does not generate a duplicate retransmit request. (If the peeking
node subsequently fails to receive the lost message, later link state
messages will cause it to rediscover and confirm the gap and send another
NACK.)
4) Message gap "equality" is now determined by the start of the gap only.
This is sufficient to deal with the most common cases of message loss,
and eliminates the need for complex end of gap computations.
5) A peeking node no longer tries to determine whether it should send a
complementary NACK, since the most common cases of message loss don't
require it to be sent. Consequently, the node no longer examines the
"broadcast tag" field of a NACK message when peeking.

tipc: Ensure broadcast link re-acquires node after link failure
Fix a bug that can prevent TIPC from sending broadcast messages to a node
if contact with the node is lost and then regained. The problem occurs if
the broadcast link first clears the flag indicating the node is part of the
link's distribution set (when it loses contact with the node), and later
fails to restore the flag (when contact is regained); restoration fails
if contact with the node is regained by implicit unicast link activation
triggered by the arrival of a data message, rather than explicitly by the
arrival of a link activation message.
The broadcast link now uses separate fields to track whether a node is
theoretically capable of receiving broadcast messages versus whether it is
actually part of the link's distribution set. The former member is updated
by the receipt of link protocol messages, which can occur at any time; the
latter member is updated only when contact with the node is gained or lost.
This change also permits the simplification of several conditional
expressions since the broadcast link's "supported" field can now only be
set if there are working links to the associated node.

atm: clip: Convert over to dst_neigh_lookup().
CLIP only support ipv4, and this is evidenced by the fact that it
is a device specific extension of arp_tbl, so this conversion is
pretty straightforward.

mac80211: timeout a single frame in the rx reorder buffer
The current code checks for stored_mpdu_num > 1, causing
the reorder_timer to be triggered indefinitely, but the
frame is never timed-out (until the next packet is received)

iwlwifi: don't mess up QoS counters with non-QoS frames
In my AMPDU rework, I rely on the sequence numbers of frames. But
I didn't check that the frame has a valid tid before updating the
tracking counters. As a result, the Tx queues were stalled. People
who hit this bug saw that we simply didn't let any data out.
This bug was introduced in 3.3.
This patch fixes that and checks that the frame is a QoS frame before
looking at its tid and changing the counters.

ssb: fix cardbus slot in hostmode
ssb supports one extra device on the cardbus. This results in two
devices in total, one beeing the host controller itself and the other
the external device connected to the hostcontroller over cardbus.
This makes the cardbus slot work on the Linksys WRT150N.

rt2800lib: fix wrong -128dBm when signal is stronger than -12dBm
This patch correct the type of variables containing the rssi
values read from the rxwi.
In function rt2800_agc_to_rssi() 3 variables (rssi0, rssi1, rss2)
defined as int was assigned a 16bit signed values as unsigned.
From a test with a hi-gain antenna I verified that the rxwi
contains signed rssi values in the range -13/+81 (inclusive)
with 0 as an error condition. In case of negative values a
condition is triggered and the function return -128dBm while
the signal is at its maximum. This patch correct the cast so
negative values are not treated as very high positive values
(ex. -13 does not become 243).

ethtool: Null-terminate filename passed to ethtool_ops::flash_device
The parameters for ETHTOOL_FLASHDEV include a filename, which ought to
be null-terminated. Currently the only driver that implements
ethtool_ops::flash_device attempts to add a null terminator if
necessary, but does it wrongly. Do it in the ethtool core instead.

net: Disambiguate kernel message
Some of our machines were reporting:
TCP: too many of orphaned sockets
even when the number of orphaned sockets was well below the
limit.
We print a different message depending on whether we're out
of TCP memory or there are too many orphaned sockets.
Also move the check out of line and cleanup the messages
that were printed.
