We can end up with a freshly allocated tx_curr_skb with no frames

This avoids the timer periodically trying to start tx when there

Lots of devices request much larger buffers than reasonable. This
cause real problems for users of hosts with limited resources.
Reducing the default buffer size to 16kB for such devices is
a reasonable trade-off between allowing them to aggregate traffic
and avoiding memory exhaustion on resource restrained hosts.

To have an idea of the effects of the protocol coalescing
it's useful to have some counters showing the different
aspects.
Due to the asymmetrical usbnet interface the netdev
rx_bytes counter has been counting real received payload,
while the tx_bytes counter has included the NCM/MBIM
framing overhead. This overhead can be many times the
payload because of the aggressive padding strategy of
this driver, and will vary a lot depending on device
and traffic.
With very few exceptions, users are only interested in
the payload size. Having an somewhat accurate payload
byte counter is particularly important for mobile
broadband devices, which many NCM devices and of course
all MBIM devices are. Users and userspace applications
will use this counter to monitor account quotas.
Having protocol specific counters for the overhead, we are
now able to correct the tx_bytes netdev counter so that
it shows the real payload

We pad frames larger than X to maximum size for devices which
don't need a ZLP after maximum sized frames. This allows the
device to optimize its transfers for one fixed buffer size.
X was arbitrarily set at 512 bytes regardless of real buffer
maximum, causing extreme overheads due to excessive padding of
larger tx buffers. Limit the padding to at most 3 full USB
packets, still allowing the overhead to payload ratio of 3/1.

Many newer NCM and MBIM devices will request a maximum tx
datagram count which is much smaller than our hard-coded
absolute max. We can reduce the overhead without sacrificing
any of the simplicity for these devices, by simply using the
true negotiated count in when calculated the maximum NTH and
NDP header sizes.

Datagram coalescing is an integral part of the NCM and MBIM
protocols, intended to reduce the interrupt load primarily
on the device end of the USB link. As with all coalescing
solutions, there is a trade-off between buffering and
interrupts.
The current defaults are based on the assumption that device
side buffers should be the limiting factor. However, many
modern high speed LTE modems suffers from buffer-bloat,
making this assumption fail. This results in sub-optimal
performance due to excessive coalescing. And in cases where
such modems are connected to cheap embedded hosts there is
often severe buffer allocation issues, giving very noticeable
performance degradation .
A start on improving this is going from build time hard
coded limits to per device user configurable limits. The
ethtool coalescing API was selected as user interface
because, although the tuned values are buffer sizes, these
settings directly control datagram coalescing.

Prior to commit fbd929f2dc
bonding: support QinQ for bond arp interval
the arp monitoring code allowed for proper detection of devices
stacked on top of vlans. Since the above commit, the
code can still detect a device stacked on top of single
vlan, but not a device stacked on top of Q-in-Q configuration.
The search will only set the inner vlan tag if the route
device is the vlan device. However, this is not always the
case, as it is possible to extend the stacked configuration.
With this patch it is possible to provision devices on
top Q-in-Q vlan configuration that should be used as
a source of ARP monitoring information.
For example:
ip link add link bond0 vlan10 type vlan proto 802.1q id 10
ip link add link vlan10 vlan100 type vlan proto 802.1q id 100
ip link add link vlan100 type macvlan
Note: This patch limites the number of stacked VLANs to 2,
just like before. The original, however had another issue
in that if we had more then 2 levels of VLANs, we would end
up generating incorrectly tagged traffic. This is no longer
possible.

The existing fixed_phy_add() function has several drawbacks that
prevents it from being used as is for OF-based declaration of fixed
PHYs:
* The address of the PHY on the fake bus needs to be passed, while a
dynamic allocation is desired.
* Since the phy_device instantiation is post-poned until the next
mdiobus scan, there is no way to associate the fixed PHY with its
OF node, which later prevents of_phy_connect() from finding this
fixed PHY from a given OF node.
To solve this, this commit introduces fixed_phy_register(), which will
allocate an available PHY address, add the PHY using fixed_phy_add()
and instantiate the phy_device structure associated with the provided
OF node.

Until now, the fixed_phy_add() function was taking as argument
'phy_id', which was used both as the PHY address on the fake fixed
MDIO bus, and as the PHY id, as available in the MII_PHYSID1 and
MII_PHYSID2 registers. However, those two informations are completely
unrelated.
This patch decouples them. The PHY id of fixed PHYs is hardcoded to be
0x0. Ideally, a really reserved value would be nicer, but there
doesn't seem to be an easy of making sure a dummy value can be
assigned to the Linux kernel for such usage.
The PHY address remains passed by the caller of phy_fixed_add().

When the NAPI budget was not all used, xenvif_poll() would call
napi_complete() /after/ enabling the interrupt. This resulted in a
race between the napi_complete() and the napi_schedule() in the
interrupt handler. The use of local_irq_save/restore() avoided by
race iff the handler is running on the same CPU but not if it was
running on a different CPU.
Fix this properly by calling napi_complete() before reenabling
interrupts (in the xenvif_napi_schedule_or_enable_irq() call).

fix from myself for a userspace API problem that hit the iw tool and a
fix to the remain-on-channel framework."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"Alex fixes the scan by disabling the fragmented scan. David prevents
scan offload while associated, the firmware seems not to like it. I
fix a stupid bug I made in BT Coex, and fix a bad #ifdef clause in rate
scaling. Along with that there is a fix for a NULL pointer exception
that can happen if we load the driver and our ISR gets called because
the interrupt line is shared. The fix has been tested by the reporter."
And...
"We have here a fix from David Spinadel that makes a previous fix more
complete, and an off-by-one issue fixed by Eliad in the same area.
I fix the monitor that broke on the way."

With commit be9dad1f9f ("net: phy: suspend phydev when going
to HALTED"), an unused PHY device will be put in a low-power mode
using BMCR_PDOWN. Some Ethernet drivers might be calling phy_start()
and phy_stop() from ndo_open and ndo_close() respectively, while
calling phy_connect() and phy_disconnect() from probe and remove.
In such a case, the PHY will be powered down during the phy_stop()
call, but will fail to be powered up in phy_start().
