This patch enables 'can_dma_sg' flag for ax88179_178a device
if the attached host controller supports building packet from
discontinuous buffers(DMA SG is possible), so TSO can be enabled
and skb fragment buffers can be passed to usb stack via urb->sg
directly.
With the patch, system CPU utilization decreased ~50% and throughput
increased by ~10% when doing iperf client test on one ARM A15 dual
core board.

it.
Also we don't need to release ehci->lock during URB giveback any more.

ehci-hcd currently unlinks an interrupt QH when it becomes empty, that
is, after its last URB completes. This works well because in almost
all cases, the completion handler for an interrupt URB resubmits the
URB; therefore the QH doesn't become empty and doesn't get unlinked.
When we start using tasklets for URB completion, this scheme won't work
as well. The resubmission won't occur until the tasklet runs, which
will be some time after the completion is queued with the tasklet.
During that delay, the QH will be empty and so will be unlinked
unnecessarily.
To prevent this problem, this patch adds a 5-ms time delay before empty
interrupt QHs are unlinked. Most often, during that time the interrupt
URB will be resubmitted and thus we can avoid unlinking the QH.

The patch does the below improvement:
- think QH_STATE_COMPLETING as unlinking state since all URBs on the
endpoint should be in unlinking or unlinked when doing endpoint_disable()
- add "WARN_ON(!list_empty(&qh->qtd_list));" if qh->qh_state is
QH_STATE_LINKED because there shouldn't be any active transfer in qh
- when qh->qh_state is QH_STATE_LINKED, the QH(async or periodic)
should be in its corresponding list, so the search through the async
list isn't necessary.
- unlink periodic QH to speed up unlinking if the QH is in linked
state
Basically, only the last one is related with this patchset because
the assumption of "periodic qh self-unlinks on empty" isn't true
any more when we introduce unlink-wait for periodic qh.

There is no good reason to run complete() in hard interrupt
disabled context.
After switch to run complete() in tasklet, we will enable local IRQs
when calling complete() since we can do it at that time.
Even though we still disable IRQs now when calling complete()
in tasklet, the URB documentation is updated to claim complete()
will be run in tasklet context and local IRQs will be enabled, so
that USB drivers can know the change and avoid one deadlock caused
by: assume IRQs disabled in complete() and call spin_lock() to
hold lock which might be acquired in interrupt context.
Current spin_lock() usages in drivers' complete() will be cleaned
up at the same time, and once the cleanup is finished, local IRQs
will be enabled when calling complete() in tasklet.
Also fix description about type of usb_complete_t, and remove the
advice of running completion handler in tasklet for decreasing
system latency.

This patch implements the mechanism of giveback of URB in
tasklet context, so that hardware interrupt handling time for
usb host controller can be saved much, and HCD interrupt handling
can be simplified.
Motivations:
1), on some arch(such as ARM), DMA mapping/unmapping is a bit
time-consuming, for example: when accessing usb mass storage
via EHCI on pandaboard, the common length of transfer buffer is 120KB,
the time consumed on DMA unmapping may reach hundreds of microseconds;
even on A15 based box, the time is still about scores of microseconds
2), on some arch, reading DMA coherent memoery is very time-consuming,
the most common example is usb video class driver[1]
3), driver's complete() callback may do much things which is driver
specific, so the time is consumed unnecessarily in hardware irq context.
4), running driver's complete() callback in hardware irq context causes
that host controller driver has to release its lock in interrupt handler,
so reacquiring the lock after return may busy wait a while and increase
interrupt handling time. More seriously, releasing the HCD lock makes
HCD becoming quite complicated to deal with introduced races.
So the patch proposes to run giveback of URB in tasklet context, then
time consumed in HCD irq handling doesn't depend on drivers' complete and
DMA mapping/unmapping any more, also we can simplify HCD since the HCD
lock isn't needed to be released during irq handling.
The patch should be reasonable and doable:
1), for drivers, they don't care if the complete() is called in hard irq
context or softirq context
2), the biggest change is the situation in which usb_submit_urb() is called
in complete() callback, so the introduced tasklet schedule delay might be a
con, but it shouldn't be a big deal:
- control/bulk asynchronous transfer isn't sensitive to schedule
delay
- the patch schedules giveback of periodic URBs using
tasklet_hi_schedule, so the introduced delay should be very
small
- for ISOC transfer, generally, drivers submit several URBs
concurrently to avoid interrupt delay, so it is OK with the
little schedule delay.
- for interrupt transfer, generally, drivers only submit one URB
at the same time, but interrupt transfer is often used in event
report, polling, ... situations, and a little delay should be OK.
Considered that HCDs may optimize on submitting URB in complete(), the
patch may cause the optimization not working, so introduces one flag to mark
if the HCD supports to run giveback URB in tasklet context. When all HCDs
are ready, the flag can be removed.

NetLabel has the ability to selectively assign network security labels
to outbound traffic based on either the LSM's "domain" (different for
each LSM), the network destination, or a combination of both. Depending
on the type of traffic, local or forwarded, and the type of traffic
selector, domain or address based, different hooks are used to label the
traffic; the goal being minimal overhead.
Unfortunately, there is a bug such that a system using NetLabel domain
based traffic selectors does not correctly label outbound local traffic
that is not assigned to a socket. The issue is that in these cases
the associated NetLabel hook only looks at the address based selectors
and not the domain based selectors. This patch corrects this by
checking both the domain and address based selectors so that the correct
labeling is applied, regardless of the configuration type.
In order to acomplish this fix, this patch also simplifies some of the
NetLabel domainhash structures to use a more common outbound traffic
mapping type: struct netlbl_dommap_def. This simplifies some of the code
in this patch and paves the way for further simplifications in the
future.

It's possible to assign an invalid value to the net.core.somaxconn
sysctl variable, because there is no checks at all.
The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as
unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen()
shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall
is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't
exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX).
Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless.
before:
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256
net.core.somaxconn = 256
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536
net.core.somaxconn = 65536
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100
net.core.somaxconn = -100
after:
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256
net.core.somaxconn = 256
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536
error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn"
$ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100
error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn"

When userspace passes a large priority value
the assignment of the unsigned value hopt->prio
to signed int cl->prio causes cl->prio to become negative and the
comparison is with TC_HTB_NUMPRIO is always false.
The result is that HTB crashes by referencing outside
the array when processing packets. With this patch the large value
wraps around like other values outside the normal range.
