97a8041020 ipv4: some rt_iif -> rt_route_iif conversions
As rt_iif represents input device even for packets
coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique
key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role,
it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at
some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics.

compare_keys:
	- input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same
	- output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not
		used for matching in __ip_route_output_key
	- now we are back to 2.6.38 state

ip_route_input_common:
	- matching rt_route_iif implies input route
	- compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check
	because it was not needed even for 2.6.38

compare_hash_inputs:
	Only the change here is not an optimization, it has
	effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring
	the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif
	- now we are back to 2.6.38 state

3557619f0f net_sched: prio: use qdisc_dequeue_peeked
commit 07bd8df5df
(sch_sfq: fix peek() implementation) changed sfq to use generic
peek helper.

This makes HFSC complain about a non-work-conserving child qdisc, if
prio with sfq child is used within hfsc:

hfsc peeks into prio qdisc, which will then peek into sfq.
returned skb is stashed in sch->gso_skb.

Next, hfsc tries to dequeue from prio, but prio will call sfq dequeue
directly, which may return NULL instead of previously peeked-at skb.

Have prio call qdisc_dequeue_peeked, so sfq->dequeue() is
not called in this case.

9be6dd6510 Bridge: Always send NETDEV_CHANGEADDR up on br MAC change.

This means we can also change MAC of port device and also not wind

case and the port MAC change case.

bdc71bc592 ath5k: fix error handling in ath5k_beacon_send
This cleans up error handling for the beacon in case of dma mapping
failure.  We need to free the skb when dma mapping fails instead of
nulling and leaking the pointer, and we should bail out to avoid
giving the hardware the bad descriptor.

Finally, we need to perform the null check after trying to update
the beacon, or else beacons will never be sent after a single
mapping failure.

8028837d71 dp83640: increase receive time stamp buffer size
The dp83640 buffers receive time stamps from special PHY status frames,
matching them to received PTP packets in a work queue. Because the timeout
for orphaned time stamps is so long and the buffer is so small, the driver
can drop time stamps under moderate PTP traffic.

This commit fixes the issue by decreasing the timeout to (at least) one
timer tick and increasing the buffer size.

cbc056602c gianfar: fix fiper alignment after resetting the time
After resetting the time, the PPS signals on the FIPER output channels
are incorrectly offset from the clock time, as can be readily verified
by a looping back the FIPER to the external time stamp input.

Despite its name, setting the "Fiper Realignment Disable" bit seems to
fix the problem, at least on the P2020.

Also, following the example code from the Freescale BSP, it is not really
necessary to disable and re-enable the timer in order to reprogram the
FIPER. (The documentation is rather unclear on this point. It seems that
writing to the alarm register also disables the FIPER.)

797fd3913a netfilter: TCP and raw fix for ip_route_me_harder
TCP in some cases uses different global (raw) socket
to send RST and ACK. The transparent flag is not set there.
Currently, it is a problem for rerouting after the previous
change.

	Fix it by simplifying the checks in ip_route_me_harder
and use FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC even for sockets. It looks safe
because the initial routing allowed this source address to
be used and now we just have to make sure the packet is rerouted.

	As a side effect this also allows rerouting for normal
raw sockets that use spoofed source addresses which was not possible
even before we eliminated the ip_route_input call.

6602a4baf4 net: Make userland include of netlink.h more sane.
Currently userland will barf when including linux/netlink.h unless it
precisely includes sys/socket.h first.  The issue is where the
definition of "sa_family_t" comes from.

We've been back and forth on how to fix this issue in the past, see:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/622621
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/143380

Ben Hutchings suggested we take a hint from how we handle the
sockaddr_storage type.  First we define a "__kernel_sa_family_t"
to linux/socket.h that is always defined.

Then if __KERNEL__ is defined, we also define "sa_family_t" as
equal to "__kernel_sa_family_t".

Then in places like linux/netlink.h we use __kernel_sa_family_t
in user visible datastructures.

also same hash chain (keyed by iif != 0) with the output

025890b4ed bonding: document two undocumented options.
Commit 655f8919d5
    bonding: add min links parameter to 802.3ad

and commit ebd8e4977a
    bonding: add all_slaves_active parameter

introduced new options to bonding, but didn't provide the documentation
for those options.

V2: add the default value for both options.
V3: document the exact behavior of min_links default value.

614851601c slip: fix NOHZ local_softirq_pending 08 warning
When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning:

	NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08

According to 481a819914 the problem is caused by
netif_rx() function. This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which
has to be used from process/softirq context.

fc97114b8d sh: Fix boot crash related to SCI
Commit d006199e72a9 ("serial: sh-sci: Regtype probing doesn't need to be
fatal.") made sci_init_single() return when sci_probe_regmap() succeeds,
although it should return when sci_probe_regmap() fails.  This causes
systems using the serial sh-sci driver to crash during boot.

Fix the problem by using the right return condition.

4d4487140d arm: remove "optimized" SHA1 routines
Since commit 1eb19a12bd ("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of
SHA-1"), the ARM SHA1 routines no longer work.  The reason? They
depended on the larger 320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is
just 16 words (64 bytes).  So the assembly version would overwrite the
stack randomly.

The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved
C version, so there's no reason to keep it around.  At least that was
the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language
version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code
was faster.

3295514841 fix rcu annotations noise in cred.h
task->cred is declared as __rcu, and access to other tasks' ->cred is,
indeed, protected.  Access to current->cred does not need rcu_dereference()
at all, since only the task itself can change its ->cred.  sparse, of
course, has no way of knowing that...

Add force-cast in current_cred(), make current_fsuid() et.al. use it.

not about actually doing the following.

3ddcd0569c vfs: optimize inode cache access patterns
The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths
really do care.  The path lookup in particular is already quite D$
intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz'
fields is quite costly.

We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op
structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits
in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode
ops that are used during pathname lookup.

It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are
together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the
order accessed.

The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel
"make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename
lookup), so it's visible.  The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and
likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture.  So there's more tuning
to be done.
