379c0456af tipc: change tipc_net_start routine return value type
Since now tipc_net_start() always returns a success code - 0, its
return value type should be changed from integer to void, which can
avoid unnecessary check for its return value.

381294331e tipc: manually inline single use media_name_valid routine
After eliminating the mechanism which checks whether all letters
in media name string are within a given character set, the
media_name_valid routine becomes trivial.  It is also only
used once, so it is unnecessary to keep it as a separate function.

fc0739385b tipc: remove pointless name sanity check and tipc_alphabet array
There is no real reason to check whether all letters in the given
media name and network interface name are within the character set
defined in tipc_alphabet array. Even if we eliminate the checking,
the rest of checking conditions in tipc_enable_bearer() can ensure
we do not enable an invalid or illegal bearer.

>From the log, we can see three different call chains between
CPU0 and CPU1:

Time 0 on CPU0:

  kernel_init()->inet_init()->dev_add_pack()

At time 0, the ptype_lock is held by CPU0 in dev_add_pack();

Time 1 on CPU1:

  tipc_enable_bearer()->enable_bearer()->dev_add_pack()

At time 1, tipc_enable_bearer() first holds tipc_net_lock, and then
wants to take ptype_lock to register TIPC protocol handler into the
networking stack.  But the ptype_lock has been taken by dev_add_pack()
on CPU0, so at this time the dev_add_pack() running on CPU1 has to be
busy looping.

Time 2 on CPU0:

  netif_receive_skb()->recv_msg()->tipc_recv_msg()

At time 2, an incoming TIPC packet arrives at CPU0, hence
tipc_recv_msg() will be invoked. In tipc_recv_msg(), it first wants
to hold tipc_net_lock.  At the moment, below scenario happens:

On CPU0, below is our sequence of taking locks:

  lock(ptype_lock)->lock(tipc_net_lock)

On CPU1, our sequence of taking locks looks like:

  lock(tipc_net_lock)->lock(ptype_lock)

Obviously deadlock may happen in this case.

But please note the deadlock possibly doesn't occur at all when the
first TIPC bearer is enabled.  Before enable_bearer() -- running on
CPU1 does not hold ptype_lock, so the TIPC receive handler (i.e.
recv_msg()) is not registered successfully via dev_add_pack(), so
the tipc_recv_msg() cannot be called by recv_msg() even if a TIPC
message comes to CPU0. But when the second TIPC bearer is
registered, the deadlock can perhaps really happen.

To fix it, we will push the work of registering TIPC protocol
handler into workqueue context. After the change, both paths taking
ptype_lock are always in process contexts, thus, the deadlock should
never occur.

John W. Linville says:

====================
This is a batch of updates intended for 3.7.  The ath9k, mwifiex,
and b43 drivers get the bulk of the commits this time, with a handful
of other driver bits thrown-in.  It is mostly just minor fixes and
cleanups, etc.

Also included is a Bluetooth pull, with a lot of refactoring.
Gustavo says:

	"These are the changes I queued for 3.7. There are a many
	small fixes/improvements by Andre Guedes. A l2cap channel
	refcounting refactor by Jaganath. Bluetooth sockets now

f1f4376307 sctp: Make the port hash table use struct net in it's key.
- Add struct net into the port hash table hash calculation
- Add struct net inot the struct sctp_bind_bucket so there
  is a memory of which network namespace a port is allocated in.
  No need for a ref count because sctp_bind_bucket only exists
  when there are sockets in the hash table and sockets can not
  change their network namspace, and sockets already ref count
  their network namespace.
- Add struct net into the key comparison when we are testing
  to see if we have found the port hash table entry we are
  looking for.

With these changes lookups in the port hash table becomes
safe to use in multiple network namespaces.

96ec632714 packet: Diag core and basic socket info dumping
The diag module can be built independently from the af_packet.ko one,
just like it's done in unix sockets.

The core dumping message carries the info available at socket creation
time, i.e. family, type and protocol (in the same byte order as shown in
the proc file).

The socket inode number and cookie is reserved for future per-socket info
retrieving. The per-protocol filtering is also reserved for future by
requiring the sdiag_protocol to be zero.

418a99ac6a Replace rwlock on xfrm_policy_afinfo with rcu
xfrm_policy_afinfo is read mosly data structure.
Write on xfrm_policy_afinfo is done only at the
time of configuration.
So rwlocks can be safely replaced with RCU.

RCUs usage optimizes the performance.

ee89bab14e net: move and rename netif_notify_peers()
I believe net/core/dev.c is a better place for netif_notify_peers(),
because other net event notify functions also stay in this file.

And rename it to netdev_notify_peers().

22c5649eef p54: fix powerpc gcc warnings
My commit "p54: parse output power table" introduced
the following compiler warnings for powerpc-allmodconfig

eeprom.c: In function 'p54_get_maxpower':
eeprom.c:291 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
eeporm.c:292 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
eeprom.c:293 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
eeprom.c:294 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

This patch fixes those by using max_t(u16
which forces a type cast.

df32381896 mac80211: fix unnecessary beacon update after peering status change
ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify is called everytime a peer link is established
or closed, because the accepting_plinks flag in the meshconf IE *might* have changed.

With this patch the corresponding functions return the BSS_CHANGED_BEACON flag when a beacon update is necessary.

Also it makes mesh_accept_plinks_update the common place to update the accepting_plinks flag.
mesh_accept_plinks_update is called upon plink change and also periodically from ieee80211_mesh_housekeeping.
Thus, it also picks up changes of local->num_sta.

faa97bd4a4 brcmsmac: document firmware dependencies
The brcmsmac driver requests firmware but doesn't document the
dependency. This means that software that analyzes the modules to
determine if firmware is needed won't detect it.

Specifically, (at least) openSUSE won't install the kernel-firmware
package if no hardware requires it.

This patch adds the MODULE_FIRMWARE directives.
