dev: support deferring device flag change notifications
Split dev_change_flags() into two functions: __dev_change_flags() to
perform the actual changes and __dev_notify_flags() to invoke netdevice
notifiers. This will be used by rtnl_link to defer netlink notifications
until the device has been fully configured.
This changes ordering of some operations, in particular:
- netlink notifications are sent after all changes have been performed.
As a side effect this surpresses one unnecessary netlink message when
the IFF_UP and other flags are changed simultaneously.
- The NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_DOWN and NETDEV_CHANGE notifiers are invoked
after all changes have been performed. Their relative is unchanged.
- net_dmaengine_put() is invoked before the NETDEV_DOWN notifier instead
of afterwards. This should not make any difference since both RX and TX
are already shut down at this point.

we must be able to roll back device registration in case setting the
flags fails without sending any notifications related to the device

This patch changes rollback_registered_many() and register_netdevice()

rtnl_link and allows to defer notifications for devices handled by
rtnl_link until setup is complete.

isdn: fix a few Kconfig imperfections
1. Rewrite the outdated help texts for config options ISDN and ISDN_CAPI.
2. The MISDN config option appeared between ISDN_I4L and the I4L hardware
driver options; move it to a less irritating place.
3. HYSDN is not in fact an I4L driver, and needn't depend on ISDN_I4L, so
move it from the I4L section to the general section.
4. ISDN_HDLC is now also used by drivers outside I4L. Move it from the
I4L section to the general section, too.

b44: Set PHY address to NO_PHY if reset fails.
Do a PHY reset to test if there is an active phy and set the PHY address
to B44_PHY_ADDR_NO_PHY in case of an not active phy. This is needed for
the Linksys WRTSL54GS and Asus WL-500W.
This patch was used in OpenWRT for a long time.

ixgbe: prevent speculative processing of descriptors before ready
The PowerPC architecture does not require loads to independent bytes to be
ordered without adding an explicit barrier.
In ixgbe_clean_rx_irq we load the status bit then load the packet data.
With packet split disabled if these loads go out of order we get a
stale packet, but we will notice the bad sequence numbers and drop it.
The problem occurs with packet split enabled where the TCP/IP header and data
are in different descriptors. If the reads go out of order we may have data
that doesn't match the TCP/IP header. Since we use hardware checksumming this
bad data is never verified and it makes it all the way to the application.
This bug was found during stress testing and adding this barrier has been shown
to fix it.

mwl8k: convert to new station add/remove callbacks
This converts mwl8k to use the new station
add/remove callbacks instead of using the
old sta_notify callback.
The new callbacks can sleep, so a lot of
code can be removed now.
