What's worse than no comment? A wrong comment.
Several PCMCIA device drivers contained the same comments, which
were based on how the PCMCIA subsystem worked in the old days of 2.4.,
and which were originally part of a "dummy_cs" driver. These comments
no longer matched at all what is happening now, and therefore should
be removed.

The Status (CISREG_CCSR) and ExtStatus (CISREG_ESR) registers were
only accessed to enable audio output for some drivers and IRQ for
serial_cs.c. The former also required setting config_req_t.Attributes
to CONF_ENABLE_SPKR; the latter can be simplified to setting this
field to CONF_ENABLE_ESR.

In order to support multiple ST platform devices, a new symbol
'st_get_plat_device' earlier needed to be exported by the arch/XX/brd-XX.c
file which intends to add the ST platform device.
On removing this dependency, now inside ST driver maintain the array of
ST platform devices that would be registered.
As of now let id=0, as and when we end up having such platforms
where mutliple ST devices can exist, id would come from
protocol drivers (BT, FM and GPS) as to on which platform device
they want to register to.

"param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" comes from the user. We should
check it so that the copy_from_user() doesn't overflow the buffer.
Also further down in the function, we assume that if
"param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" is set then "abyWPAIE[0]" is
initialized. To make that work, I changed the test here to say that if
"wpa_ie_len" is set then "wpa_ie" has to be a valid pointer or we return
-EINVAL.
Oddly, we only use the first element of the abyWPAIE[] array. So I
suspect there may be some other issues in this function.

This reverts commit 96d592ed59.
The netfilter hook seems to be misused and may leak skbs in situations
when NF_HOOK returns NF_STOLEN. It may not filter everything as
expected. Also the ethernet bridge tables are not yet capable to
understand batman-adv packet correctly.
It was only added for testing purposes and can be removed again.

Increased storvsc ringbuffer and max_io_requests. This now more
closely mimics the numbers on Hyper-V. And will allow more IO requests
to take place for the SCSI driver.
Max_IO is set to double from what it was before, Hyper-V allows it and
we have had appliance builder requests to see if it was a problem to
increase the number.
Ringbuffer size for storvsc is now increased because I have seen A few buffer

And since max_io_requests is increased I Really needed to increase the buffer

Fixed the value of the 64bit-hole inside ring buffer, this
caused a problem on Hyper-V when running checked Windows builds.
Checked builds of Windows are used internally and given to external
system integrators at times. They are builds that for example that all

this fixed was for a field that we did not fill in at all (Because we do
Not use it on the Linux side), and the checked build of windows gives
errors on it internally to the Windows logs.

Fix missing functions for net_device_ops.
It's a bug when porting the drivers from 2.6.27 to 2.6.32. In 2.6.27,
the default functions for Ethernet, like eth_change_mtu(), were assigned
by ether_setup(). But in 2.6.32, these function pointers moved to
net_device_ops structure and no longer be assigned in ether_setup(). So
we need to set these functions in our driver code. It will ensure the
MTU won't be set beyond 1500. Otherwise, this can cause an error on the
server side, because the HyperV linux driver doesn't support jumbo frame
yet.

Each net_device in a system will automatically managed as a possible
batman_if and holds different informations like a buffer with a prepared
originator messages. To reduce the memory usage, the packet_buff will
only be allocated when the interface is really added/enabled for
batman-adv.
The function to update the hw address information inside the packet_buff
just assumes that the packet_buff is always initialised and thus the
kernel will just oops when we try to change the hw address of a not
already fully enabled interface.
We must always check if the packet_buff is allocated before we try to
change information inside of it.

dev_put allows a device to be freed when all its references are dropped.
After that we are not allowed to access that information anymore. Access
to the data structure of a net_device must be surrounded a dev_hold
and ended using dev_put.
batman-adv adds a device to its own management structure in
hardif_add_interface and will release it in hardif_remove_interface.
Thus it must hold a reference all the time between those functions to
prevent any access to the already released net_device structure.

We try to get all events for all net_devices to be able to add special

events like NETDEV_POST_INIT which has no valid kobject according to
v2.6.32-rc3-13-g7ffbe3f. This would create an oops in that situation.
It is enough to create the batman_if only on NETDEV_REGISTER events
because we will also receive those events for devices which already
existed when we registered the notifier call.

If a batman icmp packet had to be routed over a secondary interface
at the first hop, the mac address of that secondary interface would
be written in the 'orig' field of the icmp packet. A node which is
more than one hop away is not aware of the mac address because
secondary interfaces are not flooded through the whole mesh and
therefore can't send a reply.
This patch always sends the mac address of the primary interface
in the 'orig' field of the icmp packet.

fs: fs_struct rwlock to spinlock
struct fs_struct.lock is an rwlock with the read-side used to protect root and
pwd members while taking references to them. Taking a reference to a path
typically requires just 2 atomic ops, so the critical section is very small.
Parallel read-side operations would have cacheline contention on the lock, the
dentry, and the vfsmount cachelines, so the rwlock is unlikely to ever give a
real parallelism increase.
Replace it with a spinlock to avoid one or two atomic operations in typical
path lookup fastpath.
