We forgot to lock using the cfg80211_mutex in
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Without the lock
there is possible race between processing a reply from CRDA
and a driver calling wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). During
the processing of the reply from CRDA we free last_request and
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() eventually accesses an
element from last_request in the through freq_reg_info_regd().
This is very difficult to reproduce (I haven't), it takes us
3 hours and you need to be banging hard, but the race is obvious
by looking at the code.
This should only affect those who use this caller, which currently
is ath5k, ath9k, and ar9170.

We need to be symmetrical in what is done when key is set and cleared.
This is important wrt the key flags as they are used during key
clearing and if they are not set when the key is set the key cannot be
cleared completely.
This addresses the many occurences of the WARN found in
iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info() and tracked in
http://www.kerneloops.org/searchweek.php?search=iwl_set_dynamic_key
If calling iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info()/iwl_remove_dynamic_key()
pair a few times in a row will cause that we run out of key space.
This is because the index stored in the key flags is used by
iwl_remove_dynamic_key() to decide if it should remove the key.
Unfortunately the key flags, and hence the key index is currently only
set at the time the key is written to the device (in
iwl_update_tkip_key()) and _not_ in iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info().
Fix this by setting flags in iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info().

This introduces a CDC Ethernet Emulation Model (EEM) host side
driver to support USB EEM devices.
EEM is different from the Ethernet Control Model (ECM) currently
supported by the "CDC Ethernet" driver. One key difference is
that it doesn't require of USB interface alternate settings to
manage interface state; some maldesigned hardware can't handle
that part of USB. It also avoids a separate USB interface for
control and status updates.

This should be very safe compared with full enabled, so I see
no reason why it shouldn't be done right away. As ECN can only
be negotiated if the SYN sending party is also supporting it,
somebody in the loop probably knows what he/she is doing. If
SYN does not ask for ECN, the server side SYN-ACK is identical
to what it is without ECN. Thus it's quite safe.
The chosen value is safe w.r.t to existing configs which
choose to currently set manually either 0 or 1 but
silently upgrades those who have not explicitly requested
ECN off.
Whether to just enable both sides comes up time to time but
unless that gets done now we can at least make the servers
aware of ECN already. As there are some known problems to occur
if ECN is enabled, it's currently questionable whether there's
any real gain from enabling clients as servers mostly won't
support it anyway (so we'd hit just the negative sides). After
enabling the servers and getting that deployed, the client end
enable really has some potential gain too.

Based almost entirely upon a patch by Eric Dumazet.
The common case is to have num-tx-queues <= num_rx_queues
and even if num_tx_queues is larger it will not be significantly

modulus.

The kernel should only be using the high 16 bits of a kernel
generated priority. Filter priorities in all other cases only
use the upper 16 bits of the u32 'prio' field of 'struct tcf_proto',
but when the kernel generates the priority of a filter is saves all
32 bits which can result in incorrect lookup failures when a filter

When netconsole is loaded and a network interface fades away (e.g. on
rmmod $interface_driver_module) the rmmod remains stuck and some locks
are taken that prevent any additional module loading/unloading as well
as interface up/down changes.
In addition kernel logs (and console) get flooded at 10s interval with

[ 132.704059] unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1

When skb_rx_queue_recorded() is true, we dont want to use jash distribution
as the device driver exactly told us which queue was selected at RX time.
jhash makes a statistical shuffle, but this wont work with 8 static inputs.
Later improvements would be to compute reciprocal value of real_num_tx_queues
to avoid a divide here. But this computation should be done once,
when real_num_tx_queues is set. This needs a separate patch, and a new
