ath5k: More EEPROM code updates
* Don't scale power values on RF5111 EEPROMs because they get out of
bounds (power is u8, so multiplying power by 50 is too much and there
is no reason to do so -we don't do it on other chips anyway-). HAL
does it as a technique to handle 0.5 dbm steps but i believe it's not
the right thing to do and certainly not the right place to do it. We
'll work this out on interpolation code for all chips (0.5 or 0.25

This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure

fuse: fix poll notify
Move fuse_copy_finish() to before calling fuse_notify_poll_wakeup().
This is not a big issue because fuse_notify_poll_wakeup() should be
atomic, but it's cleaner this way, and later uses of notification will
need to be able to finish the copying before performing some actions.

fuse: destroy bdi on umount
If a fuse filesystem is unmounted but the device file descriptor
remains open and a new mount reuses the old device number, then the
mount fails with EEXIST and the following warning is printed in the
kernel log:
WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:462 sysfs_add_one+0x35/0x3d()
sysfs: duplicate filename '0:15' can not be created
The cause is that the bdi belonging to the fuse filesystem was
destoryed only after the device file was released. Fix this by
calling bdi_destroy() from fuse_put_super() instead.

x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs, fix
Impact: fix boot hang on pre-model-15 Intel CPUs
rdmsrl_safe() does not work in very early bootup code yet, because we
dont have the pagefault handler installed yet so exception section
does not get parsed. rdmsr_safe() will just crash and hang the bootup.
So limit the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR read to those CPU types that
support it.

x86: work around PAGE_KERNEL_WC not getting WC in iomap_atomic_prot_pfn.
In the absence of PAT, PAGE_KERNEL_WC ends up mapping to a memory type that
gets UC behavior even in the presence of a WC MTRR covering the area in
question. By swapping to PAGE_KERNEL_UC_MINUS, we can get the actual
behavior the caller wanted (WC if you can manage it, UC otherwise).
This recovers the 40% performance improvement of using WC in the DRM
to upload vertex data.

virtio_net: Fix MAX_PACKET_LEN to support 802.1Q VLANs
802.1Q expanded the maximum ethernet frame size by 4 bytes for the
VLAN tag. We're not taking this into account in virtio_net, which
means the buffers we provide to the backend in the virtqueue RX ring
aren't big enough to hold a full MTU VLAN packet. For QEMU/KVM,
this results in the backend exiting with a packet truncation error.
