fbe754ca3a powerpc: machine_check_generic is wrong on 64bit
Decoding machine checks is CPU specific and so machine_check_generic doesn't
do the right thing on 64bit chips. Luckily we never call into this code
because we call ppc_md.machine_check_exception instead if available.

Since we check cur_cpu_spec->machine_check before calling it, we may as
well remove machine_check_generic from 64bit archs.

d368514c30 powerpc: Fix corruption when grabbing FWNMI data
The FWNMI code uses a global buffer without any locks to read the RTAS error
information. If two CPUs take a machine check at once then we will corrupt
this buffer.

Since most FWNMI rtas messages are not of the extended type, we can create a
64bit percpu buffer and use it where possible. If we do receive an extended
RTAS log then we fall back to the old behaviour of using the global buffer.

d47d1d8af5 powerpc: Rework pseries machine check handler
Rework pseries machine check handler:

- If MSR_RI isn't set, we cannot recover even if the machine check was fully
  recovered

- Rename nonfatal to recovered

- Handle RTAS_DISP_LIMITED_RECOVERY

- Use BUS_MCEERR_AR instead of BUS_ADRERR

- Don't check all the RTAS error log fields when receiving a synchronous
  machine check. Recent versions of the pseries firmware do not fill them
  in during a machine check and instead send a follow up error log with
  the detailed information. If we see a synchronous machine check, and we
  came from userspace then kill the task.

e49b1fae0b powerpc: Don't silently handle machine checks from userspace
If a machine check comes from userspace we send a SIGBUS to the task and
fail to printk anything.

If we are taking machine checks due to bad hardware we want to know about
it right away. Furthermore if we don't complain loudly then it will look
a lot like a bug in the userspace application, potentially causing a lot
of confusion.

3f9793e6b6 powerpc: Never halt RTAS error logging after receiving an unrecoverable machine check
Newer versions of the System p firwmare send a partial RTAS error log in the
machine check handler with a more detailed response appearing sometime later
via check event.

This means at machine check time we do not have enough information to
ascertain exactly what went on. Furthermore, I have found the RTAS error
logs in the machine check handler contain no useful information, so halting on
them makes little sense. If we want to halt it would make more sense to do
it following the error log received sometime later via check event.

In light of this, never halt the error log in the pseries machine
check handler.

c0337288ab powerpc: Ensure the else case of feature sections will fit
When we create an alternative feature section, the else case must be the
same size or smaller than the body. This is because when we patch the
else case in we just overwrite the body, so there must be room.

Up to now we just did this by inspection, but it's quite easy to enforce
it in the assembler, so we should.

The only change is to add the ifgt block, but that effects the alignment
of the tabs and so the whole macro is modified.

Also add a test, but #if 0 it because we don't want to break the build.
Anyone who's modifying the feature macros should enable the test.

6ee400aafb net offloading: Do not mask out NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX for vlan.
In netif_skb_features() we return only the features that are valid for vlans
if we have a vlan packet.  However, we should not mask out NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX
since it enables transmission of vlan tags and is obviously valid.

f742aa8acb USB CDC NCM: tx_fixup() race condition fix
- tx_fixup() can be called from either timer callback or from xmit()
  in usbnet, so spinlock is added to avoid concurrency-related problem.
- minor correction due to checkpatch warning for some line over 80
  chars after previous patch was applied.

1956cc52e7 ns83820: Avoid bad pointer deref in ns83820_init_one().
In drivers/net/ns83820.c::ns83820_init_one() we dynamically allocate
memory via alloc_etherdev(). We then call PRIV() on the returned storage
which is 'return netdev_priv()'. netdev_priv() takes the pointer it is
passed and adds 'ALIGN(sizeof(struct net_device), NETDEV_ALIGN)' to it and
returns it. Then we test the resulting pointer for NULL, which it is
unlikely to be at this point, and later dereference it. This will go bad
if alloc_etherdev() actually returned NULL.

This patch reworks the code slightly so that we test for a NULL pointer
(and return -ENOMEM) directly after calling alloc_etherdev().

2fdc1c8093 ipv6: Silence privacy extensions initialization
When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback
interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a
printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set.

This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as
part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of
vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless
"lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg.

It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the
use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most
sensible solution.

b21a342487 bnx2x: Common init will be executed only once after POR
Common init used to be called by the driver when the first port comes up, mainly to reset and reload external PHY microcode.
However, in case management driver is active on the other port, traffic would halted. So limit the common init to be done only once after POR.
