MAINTAINERS: hostap: Mark the Host AP driver obsolete
This is old code for old hardware and it is not really accurate to claim
this to be maintained anymore. Change the status to "Obsolete" to make
it clearer that minor cleanup and other unnecessary changes from
automated tools is not necessarily beneficial and has larger risk of
breaking something without being quickly noticed due to lack of testing.
In addition, remove the old mailing list that does not work anymore and
point the web-page to a more accurate URL.

brcmfmac: use correct skb freeing helper when deleting flowring
Flowrings contain skbs waiting for transmission that were passed to us
by netif. It means we checked every one of them looking for 802.1x
Ethernet type. When deleting flowring we have to use freeing function
that will check for 802.1x type as well.
Freeing skbs without a proper check was leading to counter not being
properly decreased. This was triggering a WARNING every time
brcmf_netdev_wait_pend8021x was called.

brcmfmac: replace WARNING on timeout with a simple error message
Even with timeout increased to 950 ms we get WARNINGs from time to time.
It mostly happens on A-MPDU stalls (e.g. when station goes out of
range). It may take up to 5-10 secods for the firmware to recover and
for that time it doesn't process packets.
It's still useful to have a message on time out as it may indicate some
firmware problem and incorrect key update. Raising a WARNING however
wasn't really that necessary, it doesn't point to any driver bug anymore
and backtrace wasn't much useful.

tcp: prepare skbs for better sack shifting
With large BDP TCP flows and lossy networks, it is very important
to keep a low number of skbs in the write queue.
RACK and SACK processing can perform a linear scan of it.
We should avoid putting any payload in skb->head, so that SACK
shifting can be done if needed.
With this patch, we allow to pack ~0.5 MB per skb instead of
the 64KB initially cooked at tcp_sendmsg() time.
This gives a reduction of number of skbs in write queue by eight.

mlx5e Order-0 pages for Striding RQ
In this series, we refactor our Striding RQ receive-flow to always use
fragmented WQEs (Work Queue Elements) using order-0 pages, omitting the
flow that allocates and splits high-order pages which would fragment
and deplete high-order pages in the system.
The first patch gives a slight degradation, but opens the opportunity
to using a simple page-cache mechanism of a fair size.
The page-cache, implemented in patch 3, not only closes the performance
gap but even gives a gain.
In patch 2 we re-organize the code to better manage the calls for
alloc/de-alloc pages in the RX flow.

net/mlx5e: Implement RX mapped page cache for page recycle
Instead of reallocating and mapping pages for RX data-path,
recycle already used pages in a per ring cache.
Performance tests:
The following results were measured on a freshly booted system,
giving optimal baseline performance, as high-order pages are yet to
be fragmented and depleted.
We ran pktgen single-stream benchmarks, with iptables-raw-drop:
Single stride, 64 bytes:
* 4,739,057 - baseline
* 4,749,550 - order0 no cache
* 4,786,899 - order0 with cache
1% gain
Larger packets, no page cross, 1024 bytes:
* 3,982,361 - baseline
* 3,845,682 - order0 no cache
* 4,127,852 - order0 with cache
3.7% gain
Larger packets, every 3rd packet crosses a page, 1500 bytes:
* 3,731,189 - baseline
* 3,579,414 - order0 no cache
* 3,931,708 - order0 with cache
5.4% gain

net/mlx5e: Single flow order-0 pages for Striding RQ
To improve the memory consumption scheme, we omit the flow that
demands and splits high-order pages in Striding RQ, and stay
with a single Striding RQ flow that uses order-0 pages.
Moving to fragmented memory allows the use of larger MPWQEs,
which reduces the number of UMR posts and filler CQEs.
Moving to a single flow allows several optimizations that improve
performance, especially in production servers where we would
anyway fallback to order-0 allocations:
- inline functions that were called via function pointers.
- improve the UMR post process.
This patch alone is expected to give a slight performance reduction.
However, the new memory scheme gives the possibility to use a page-cache
of a fair size, that doesn't inflate the memory footprint, which will
dramatically fix the reduction and even give a performance gain.

Merge branch 'QCA8K'
John Crispin says:
====================
net-next: dsa: add QCA8K support
This series is based on the AR8xxx series posted by Matthieu Olivari in may
2015. The following changes were made since then
* fixed the nitpicks from the previous review
* updated to latest API
* turned it into an mdio device
* added callbacks for fdb, bridge offloading, stp, eee, port status
* fixed several minor issues to the port setup and arp learning
* changed the namespacing as this driver to qca8k
The driver has so far only been tested on qca8337/N. It should work on other QCA
switches such as the qca8327 with minor changes.

net-next: dsa: add new driver for qca8xxx family
This patch contains initial support for the QCA8337 switch. It
will detect a QCA8337 switch, if present and declared in the DT.
Each port will be represented through a standalone net_device interface,
as for other DSA switches. CPU can communicate with any of the ports by
setting an IP@ on ethN interface. Most of the extra callbacks of the DSA
subsystem are already supported, such as bridge offloading, stp, fdb.

Merge branch 'mediatek-reset-flow'
Sean Wang says:
====================
mediatek: add enhancement into the existing reset flow
Current driver only resets DMA used by descriptor rings which
can't guarantee it can recover all various kinds of fatal
errors, so the patch
1) tries to reset the underlying hardware resource from scratch on
Mediatek SoC required for ethernet running.
2) refactors code in order to the reusability of existing code.
3) considers handling for race condition between the reset flow and
callbacks registered into core driver called about hardware accessing.
4) introduces power domain usage to hardware setup which leads to have
cleanly and completely restore to the state as the initial.
Changes since v1:
- fix the build error with module built causing undefined symbol for
pinctrl_bind_pins, so using pinctrl_select_state instead accomplishes
the pin mux setup during the reset process.
