2fe2abf896 PCI: augment bus resource table with a list
Previously we used a table of size PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES (16) for resources
forwarded to a bus by its upstream bridge.  We've increased this size
several times when the table overflowed.

But there's no good limit on the number of resources because host bridges
and subtractive decode bridges can forward any number of ranges to their
secondary buses.

This patch reduces the table to only PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCE_NUM (4) entries,
which corresponds to the number of windows a PCI-to-PCI (3) or CardBus (4)
bridge can positively decode.  Any additional resources, e.g., PCI host
bridge windows or subtractively-decoded regions, are kept in a list.

I'd prefer a single list rather than this split table/list approach, but
that requires simultaneous changes to every architecture.  This approach
only requires immediate changes where we set up (a) host bridges with more
than four windows and (b) subtractive-decode P2P bridges, and we can
incrementally change other architectures to use the list.

89a74ecccd PCI: add pci_bus_for_each_resource(), remove direct bus->resource[] refs
No functional change; this converts loops that iterate from 0 to
PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES through pci_bus resource[] table to use the
pci_bus_for_each_resource() iterator instead.

This doesn't change the way resources are stored; it merely removes
dependencies on the fact that they're in a table.

b67ea76172 PCI / ACPI / PM: Platform support for PCI PME wake-up
Although the majority of PCI devices can generate PMEs that in
principle may be used to wake up devices suspended at run time,
platform support is generally necessary to convert PMEs into wake-up
events that can be delivered to the kernel.  If ACPI is used for this
purpose, PME signals generated by a PCI device will trigger the ACPI
GPE associated with the device to generate an ACPI wake-up event that
we can set up a handler for, provided that everything is configured
correctly.

Unfortunately, the subset of PCI devices that have GPEs associated
with them is quite limited.  The devices without dedicated GPEs have
to rely on the GPEs associated with other devices (in the majority of
cases their upstream bridges and, possibly, the root bridge) to
generate ACPI wake-up events in response to PME signals from them.

Add ACPI platform support for PCI PME wake-up:
o Add a framework making is possible to use ACPI system notify
  handlers for run-time PM.
o Add new PCI platform callback ->run_wake() to struct
  pci_platform_pm_ops allowing us to enable/disable the platform to
  generate wake-up events for given device.  Implemet this callback
  for the ACPI platform.
o Define ACPI wake-up handlers for PCI devices and PCI root buses and
  make the PCI-ACPI binding code register wake-up notifiers for all
  PCI devices present in the ACPI tables.
o Add function pci_dev_run_wake() which can be used by PCI drivers to
  check if given device is capable of generating wake-up events at
  run time.

9630bdd9b1 ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs
ACPI GPEs may map to multiple devices.  The current GPE interface
only provides a mechanism for enabling and disabling GPEs, making
it difficult to change the state of GPEs at runtime without extensive
cooperation between devices.

Add an API to allow devices to indicate whether or not they want
their device's GPE to be enabled for both runtime and wakeup events.

Remove the old GPE type handling entirely, which gets rid of various
quirks, like the implicit disabling with GPE type setting. This
requires a small amount of rework in order to ensure that non-wake
GPEs are enabled by default to preserve existing behaviour.

c7f486567c PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver
PCIe native PME detection mechanism is based on interrupts generated
by root ports or event collectors every time a PCIe device sends a
PME message upstream.

Once a PME message has been sent by an endpoint device and received
by its root port (or event collector in the case of root complex
integrated endpoints), the Requester ID from the message header is
registered in the root port's Root Status register.  At the same
time, the PME Status bit of the Root Status register is set to
indicate that there's a PME to handle.  If PCIe PME interrupt is
enabled for the root port, it generates an interrupt once the PME
Status has been set.  After receiving the interrupt, the kernel can
identify the PCIe device that generated the PME using the Requester
ID from the root port's Root Status register. [For details, see PCI
Express Base Specification, Rev. 2.0.]

Implement a driver for the PCIe PME root port service working in
accordance with the above description.

Based on a patch from Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com>.

93177a748b PCI: Clean up build for CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS unset
Currently, drivers/pci/quirks.c is built unconditionally, but if
CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS is unset, the only things actually built in this
file are definitions of global variables and empty functions (due to
the #ifdef CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS embracing all of the code inside the
file).  This is not particularly nice and if someone overlooks
the #ifdef CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS, build errors are introduced.

To clean that up, move the definitions of the global variables in
quirks.c that are always built to pci.c, move the definitions of
the empty functions (compiled when CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS is unset) to
headers (additionally make these functions static inline) and modify
drivers/pci/Makefile so that quirks.c is only built if
CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS is set.

ffb9eb3d8b nl80211: add power save commands
The most needed command from nl80211, which Wireless Extensions had,
is support for power save mode. Add a simple command to make it possible
to enable and disable power save via nl80211.

I was also planning about extending the interface, for example adding the
timeout value, but after thinking more about this I decided not to do it.
Basically there were three reasons:

Firstly, the parameters for power save are very much hardware dependent.
Trying to find a unified interface which would work with all hardware, and
still make sense to users, will be very difficult.

Secondly, IEEE 802.11 power save implementation in Linux is still in state
of flux. We have a long way to still to go and there is no way to predict
what kind of implementation we will have after few years. And because we
need to support nl80211 interface a long time, practically forever, adding
now parameters to nl80211 might create maintenance problems later on.

Third issue are the users. Power save parameters are mostly used for
debugging, so debugfs is better, more flexible, interface for this.
For example, wpa_supplicant currently doesn't configure anything related
to power save mode. It's better to strive that kernel can automatically
optimise the power save parameters, like with help of pm qos network
and other traffic parameters.

Later on, when we have better understanding of power save, we can extend
this command with more features, if there's a need for that.

As it's the case with some other Prism based devices, the third ID

card as having Intersil Prism chipset and thus compatible with both
orinoco_cs and hostap_cs.

Introduce PCMCIA_DEVICE_PROD_ID3 that matches the third ID string only.

4bac6b1807 netfilter: restore POST_ROUTING hook in NF_HOOK_COND
Commit 2249065 ("netfilter: get rid of the grossness in netfilter.h")
inverted the logic for conditional hook invocation, breaking the
POST_ROUTING hook invoked by ip_output().

Correct the logic and remove an unnecessary initialization.

72032fdbcd xfrm: Introduce LINUX_MIB_XFRMFWDHDRERROR
XFRMINHDRERROR counter is ambigous when validating forwarding
path. It makes it tricky to debug when you have both in and fwd
validation.

7e38017557 net: TCP thin dupack
This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for
TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce
latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast
retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin.

36e31b0af5 net: TCP thin linear timeouts
This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the
stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies
that thin stream suffer because of exponential backoff. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin. A maximum of 6 linear
timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.

5aa4b32fc8 net: TCP thin-stream detection
Inline function to dynamically detect thin streams based on
the number of packets in flight. Used to dynamically trigger
thin-stream mechanisms if enabled by ioctl or sysctl.

501c774cb1 net/macvtap: add vhost support
This adds support for passing a macvtap file descriptor into
vhost-net, much like we already do for tun/tap.

Most of the new code is taken from the respective patch
in the tun driver and may get consolidated in the future.
