Staging: batman-adv: splitting /proc vis file into vis_server and vis_data
The /proc vis file was used to enable/disable the vis server and to output
the vis data at the same time. This behaviour was confusing and lacked a
proper method to display the current vis server status.
This patch seperates the 2 functionalities:
* use vis_server to enable/disable the vis server and to retrieve its status
* use vis_data to retrieve the vis raw data (if the server is enabled)

batman-adv used to export the vis data using different formats that were
switchable via /proc/net/batman-adv/vis_format. The various formats moved
to user space and rendered this configuration switch useless.

Staging: batman-adv: Use forw_bcast_list_lock always with disabled interrupts
forw_bcast_list_lock is spin_locked in both process and softirq context.
SoftIRQ calls the spinlock with disabled IRQ and normal process context
with enabled IRQs.
When process context is inside an spin_locked area protected by
forw_bcast_list_lock and gets interrupted by an IRQ, it could happen
that something tries to lock forw_bcast_list_lock again in SoftIRQ
context. It cannot proceed further since the lock is already taken
somewhere else, but no reschedule will happen inside the SoftIRQ
context. This leads to an complete kernel hang without any chance of

staging: add Broadcom Crystal HD driver
This patch supersedes the earlier ones sent by Manu Abraham to add
the Broadcom Crystal HD driver to the staging tree, per discussion
with him about it. I've been working with Broadcom's Naren Sankar
on this driver for a number of months, and had already talked Naren
about submitting this on Broadcom's behalf, didn't expect anyone
else to jump on submitting it as quickly as Manu did. ;)
This version is a one-shot deal, incorporating the original driver,
Manu's coding style clean-ups, udev device creation support from
Edgar 'gimli' Hucek, and a number of other small tweaks from myself
and Scott Davilla, the other individual who has been working closely
on this code with Naren and I.
I've tested this iteration of the code lightly on a mini pci-e board
in a ThinkPad T61p running x86_64 Fedora 12, with the expected results,
and will test further on other systems with other variants of the card
(I have three varieties of this device currently in hand). Scott has
also tested on assorted primarily i686 varieties of Ubuntu, and Naren
has tested with both Fedora and Ubuntu, iirc.
Note: only the 70012 is currently supported by this driver, 70015
support will follow later. Also note that Blu-Ray support isn't
enabled (at the firmware level), due to misc fun related to the
BD encryption scheme, DRM, etc. :\
I *do* have a git tree containing the driver, lib, gst plugin and
firmware that I'm working from at the moment[*], as there are inter-
dependencies between the driver and lib, and the driver can be used
with kernels going a ways back (I've only tested back to 2.6.18 as
it exists in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5). I'm exporting from there,
into a linux-next tree, then generating patches from there. The goal
is to feed everything upstream as quickly as possible, but there are
users who want this code for earlier kernels too...
The firmware will be submitted for inclusion in dwmw2's linux-firmware
tree once there is a suitable redistribution-no-modification type of
license on it (I believe Naren is working with Broadcom legal to get
that in place).
include: lib doesn't build w/o the removed stdint include
So add it back...

Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.
I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.

start_xmit routine on txfull state and trigger BUG_ON.
This bug does not happen when NAPI disabled. After txdone there
must be at least one free tx slot. But with NAPI, this is not
true anymore and the BUG_ON can hits on heavy load.
In this driver NAPI was enabled on 2.6.33-rc1 so this is
regression from 2.6.32 kernel.

It did mention autoconfigured in the text, but the below makes it more obvious.
More clearly document IPv6 max_addresses parameter.
