7f7d9a6b96 [IPV6]: Consolidate common SNMP code
This patch moves the non-proc SNMP code into addrconf.c and reuses
IPv4 SNMP code where applicable.

As a result we can skip proc.o if /proc is disabled.

Note that I've made a number of functions static since they're only
used by addrconf.c for now.  If they ever get used elsewhere we can
always remove the static.

5e0f04351d [IPV4]: Consolidate common SNMP code
This patch moves the SNMP code shared between IPv4/IPv6 from proc.c
into net/ipv4/af_inet.c.  This makes sense because these functions
aren't specific to /proc.

As a result we can again skip proc.o if /proc is disabled.

1f9eda7e2b [TIPC]: Enhancements to msg_set_bits() routine
This patch makes two enhancements to msg_set_bits():

1) It now ignores any bits of the new field value that are not
   covered by the mask being used.  (Previously, if the new value
   exceeded the size of the mask the extra bits could corrupt
   other fields in the message header word being updated.)

2) The code has been optimized to minimize the number of run-time
   endianness conversion operations by leveraging the fact that the
   mask (and, in some cases, the value as well) is constant and the
   necessary conversion can be performed by the compiler.

f9d106a6d5 [NET]: Warn about GSO/checksum abuse
Now that Patrick has added the code to deal with GSO in netfilter,
we no longer need the crutch that computes partial checksums just

can then turn it into a BUG_ON and remove the gso_send_check cruft.

    -e 's|struct sock \*sk, struct tcp_sock \*tp|
	  struct sock \*sk|g' -e 's|sk, tp\([^-]\)|sk\1|g'

Fixed four unused variable (tp) warnings that were introduced.

In addition, manually added newlines after local variables and
tweaked function arguments positioning.

42dc9cd54b [PPPOE]: Fix device tear-down notification.
pppoe_flush_dev() kicks all sockets bound to a device that is going down.
In doing so, locks must be taken in the right order consistently (sock lock,
followed by the pppoe_hash_lock).  However, the scan process is based on
us holding the sock lock.  So, when something is found in the scan we must
release the lock we're holding and grab the sock lock.

This patch fixes race conditions between this code and pppoe_release(),
both of which perform similar functions but would naturally prefer to grab
locks in opposing orders.  Both code paths are now going after these locks
in a consistent manner.

pppoe_hash_lock protects the contents of the "pppox_sock" objects that reside
inside the hash.  Thus, NULL'ing out the pppoe_dev field should be done
under the protection of this lock.

202a03acf9 [PPPOE]: memory leak when socket is release()d before PPPIOCGCHAN has been called on it
below you find a patch that fixes a memory leak when a PPPoE socket is
release()d after it has been connect()ed, but before the PPPIOCGCHAN ioctl
ever has been called on it.

This is somewhat of a security problem, too, since PPPoE sockets can be
created by any user, so any user can easily allocate all the machine's
RAM to non-swappable address space and thus DoS the system.

Is there any specific reason for PPPoE sockets being available to any
unprivileged process, BTW? After all, you need a packet socket for the
discovery stage anyway, so it's unlikely that any unprivileged process
will ever need to create a PPPoE socket, no? Allocating all session IDs
for a known AC is a kind of DoS, too, after all - with Juniper ERXes,
this is really easy, actually, since they don't ever assign session ids
above 8000 ...

74b885cf86 [PPPOE]: race between interface going down and connect()
below you find a patch that (hopefully) fixes a race between an interface
going down and a connect() to a peer on that interface. Before,
connect() would determine that an interface is up, then the interface
could go down and all entries referring to that interface in the
item_hash_table would be marked as ZOMBIEs and their references to
the device would be freed, and after that, connect() would put a new
entry into the hash table referring to the device that meanwhile is
down already - which also would cause unregister_netdevice() to wait
until the socket has been release()d.

This patch does not suffice if we are not allowed to accept connect()s
referring to a device that we already acked a NETDEV_GOING_DOWN for
(that is: all references are only guaranteed to be freed after
NETDEV_DOWN has been acknowledged, not necessarily after the
NETDEV_GOING_DOWN already). And if we are allowed to, we could avoid
looking through the hash table upon NETDEV_GOING_DOWN completely and
only do that once we get the NETDEV_DOWN ...

mostrows:
pppoe_flush_dev is called on NETDEV_GOING_DOWN and NETDEV_DOWN to deal with
this "late connect" issue.  Ideally one would hope to notify users at the
"NETDEV_GOING_DOWN" phase (just to pretend to be nice).  However, it is the
NETDEV_DOWN scan that takes all the responsibility for ensuring nobody is
hanging around at that time.

fd44de7cc1 [NET_SCHED]: ingress: switch back to using ingress_lock
Switch ingress queueing back to use ingress_lock. qdisc_lock_tree now locks
both the ingress and egress qdiscs on the device. All changes to data that
might be used on both ingress and egress needs to be protected by using
qdisc_lock_tree instead of manually taking dev->queue_lock. Additionally
the qdisc stats_lock needs to be initialized to ingress_lock for ingress
qdiscs.

0463d4ae25 [NET_SCHED]: Eliminate qdisc_tree_lock
Since we're now holding the rtnl during the entire dump operation, we
can remove qdisc_tree_lock, whose only purpose is to protect dump
callbacks from concurrent changes to the qdisc tree.

ffa4d7216e [NETLINK]: don't reinitialize callback mutex
Don't reinitialize the callback mutex the netlink_kernel_create caller
handed in, it is supposed to already be initialized and could already
be held by someone.

6313c1e099 [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks
Since we're now holding the rtnl during the entire dump operation, we can
remove additional locking for rtnl protected data. This patch does that
for all simple cases (dev_base_lock for dev_base walking, RCU protection
for FIB rule dumping).
