ff0c087490 x86: fix DMI on EFI
Impact: reactivate DMI quirks on EFI hardware

DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after
efi_init() and not before.

Currently Apple hardware uses DMI to determine the framebuffer mappings
for efifb. Without DMI working you also have no video on MacBook Pro.

This patch resolves the DMI issue for EFI hardware (DMI is now properly
detected at boot), and additionally efifb now loads on Apple hardware
(i.e. video works).

fe7ca2e1e8 IPv6: add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko
Add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko by specifying
"disable=1" on module load.  We just do the minimum of initializing
inetsw6[] so calls from other modules to inet6_register_protosw()
won't OOPs, then bail out.  No IPv6 addresses or sockets can be
created as a result, and a reboot is required to enable IPv6.

b9bdcd9bd7 net pcmcia: worklimit reaches -1
with while (--worklimit >= 0); worklimit reaches -1 after the loop. In
3c589_cs.c this caused a warning not to be printed.

In 3c574_cs.c contrastingly, el3_rx() treats worklimit differently:

static int el3_rx(struct net_device *dev, int worklimit)
{
	while (--worklimit >= 0) { ... }
	return worklimit;
}

el3_rx() is only called by function el3_interrupt(): twice:

static irqreturn_t el3_interrupt(int irq, void *dev_id)
{
        int work_budget = max_interrupt_work;
	while(...) {
		if (...)
			work_budget = el3_rx(dev, work_budget);
		if (...)
			work_budget = el3_rx(dev, work_budget);
		if (--work_budget < 0) {
		        ...
		        break;
		}
	}
}
The error path can occur 2 too early.

4222474519 net: fix tokenring license
Currently, modular tokenring ("tr") lacks a license and fails to load:

tr: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
tr: Unknown symbol proc_net_fops_create

Beacuse of this, no tokenring driver can load if it depends on modular 
tr. Fix this by adding GPL module license as it is in the kernel.

With this fix, tr module loads fine and tms380 driver also loads. Well, 
it does'nt work but that's a different bug.

4843b93c96 netlink: invert error code in netlink_set_err()
The callers of netlink_set_err() currently pass a negative value
as parameter for the error code. However, sk->sk_err wants a
positive error value. Without this patch, skb_recv_datagram() called
by netlink_recvmsg() may return a positive value to report an error.

Another choice to fix this is to change callers to pass a positive
error value, but this seems a bit inconsistent and error prone
to me. Indeed, the callers of netlink_set_err() assumed that the
(usual) negative value for error codes was fine before this patch :).

This patch also includes some documentation in docbook format
for netlink_set_err() to avoid this sort of confusion.

fd578f9c0a x86: use roundup() instead of PAGE_ALIGN() in find_early_table_space()
Impact: cleanup

This patch changes find_early_table_space() to use roundup() for rounding up
tables to page size to unify the common parts of the 32-bit and 64-bit
implementations.

Impact: cleanup

The __VMALLOC_RESERVE global variable is not used in init_32.c. Move that to
pgtable_32.c to reduce the diff between init_32.c and init_64.c.

780eef9492 x86: oprofile: don't set counter width from cpuid on Core2
Impact: fix stuck NMIs and non-working oprofile on certain CPUs

Resetting the counter width of the performance counters on Intel's
Core2 CPUs, breaks the delivery of NMIs, when running in x86_64 mode.

This should fix bug #12395:

This is because the #ifdef's in bfin_serial_5xx.h are messed up. More
specifically, they add/remove the uart_{rts,cts}_pin fields in
bfin_serial_resources based on whether the particular port has rts/cts enabled,
as opposed to when either port has it enabled.

This patch fixed this.

17edde5209 netns: Remove net_alive
It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem
that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought
it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets
while there were still packets in the network namespace.

Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves
this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee
that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided
by net_alive in netif_receive_skb.  So remove net_alive allowing
packet reception run a little faster.

Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup
is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have
a chance of figuring it out.

devices are being cleaned up use reisger_pernet_subsys instead of
register_pernet_device.

6eb0777228 netns: Fix icmp shutdown.
Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace
cleanup.  There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent
and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but
failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called.

The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their
arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.

It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys.  Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making
a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible.

Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in
my testing.
