can-gw: add netlink based CAN routing
This patch adds a CAN Gateway/Router to route (and modify) CAN frames.
It is based on the PF_CAN core infrastructure for msg filtering and msg
sending and can optionally modify routed CAN frames on the fly.
CAN frames can *only* be routed between CAN network interfaces (one hop).
They can be modified with AND/OR/XOR/SET operations as configured by the
netlink configuration interface known e.g. from iptables. From the netlink
view this can-gw implements RTM_{NEW|DEL|GET}ROUTE for PF_CAN.
The CAN specific userspace tool to manage CAN routing entries can be found in
the CAN utils http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/socketcan/trunk/can-utils/cangw.c
at the SocketCAN SVN on BerliOS.

ixgbe: Correctly name and handle MSI-X other interrupt
It was possible to inadvertently add additional interrupt causes to the
MSI-X other interrupt. This occurred when things such as RX buffer overrun
events were being triggered at the same time as an event such as a Flow
Director table reinit request. In order to avoid this we should be
explicitly programming only the interrupts that we want enabled. In
addition I am renaming the ixgbe_msix_lsc function and interrupt to drop
any implied meaning of this being a link status only interrupt.

Change details:
- Remove unnecessary ccb check from bnad_poll_cq
- Add bnad pointer to rx_ctrl structure, so that bnad can be accessed directly
from rx_ctrl in the NAPI poll routines, even if ccb is NULL
- Validate ccb before referencing to it in bnad_msix_rx and bnad_napi_poll_rx
- Fix the order of NAPI init / uninit in Tx / Rx setup / teardown path:
a. Kill bnad tx free tasklet ahead of call to bna_tx_destroy()
b. Call NAPI disable only after call to Rx free_irq(). This makes sure Rx
interrupt does not schedule a poll when NAPI is already disabled
- NAPI poll runs before the h/w has completed configuration. This causes a
crash. Delay enabling NAPI till after bna_rx_enable(). Split NAPI
initialization into 2 steps, bnad_napi_init() & bnad_napi_enable().

ath9k: move the sequence number from ath_frame_info to ath_buf
It is only necessary for BAW tracking and moving it to the ath_buf
makes it easier to add further improvements, such as deferring
seqno allocation in the aggregation path.

ath9k: clean up the aggregation tid queue
Use a sk_buff_head instead containing skbs instead of a list_head
containing ath_bufs. This makes it easier to decouple the aggregation
code from the ath_buf struct

ath: Make ath_printk void not int and remove unused struct ath_common *
Changing the return type and removing the unused argument from
ath_printk reduces code size.
Add an __always_unused struct ath_common * to the macros
that call ath_printk to avoid unused variable warnings.

ath: Make ath_dbg void not int
The return value is never used so make it void.
Reduces object size a tiny bit.
