This patch re-factors the be_set_profile_config() code (used so far

Having less call sites to update will allow us to implement a generic BMCR_RESET

ipv6: do not overwrite inetpeer metrics prematurely
If an IPv6 host route with metrics exists, an attempt to add a
new route for the same target with different metrics fails but
rewrites the metrics anyway:
12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1000
12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show
fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256
fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 rto_min lock 1s
12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1500
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show
fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256
fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 rto_min lock 1.5s
This is caused by all IPv6 host routes using the metrics in
their inetpeer (or the shared default). This also holds for the
new route created in ip6_route_add() which shares the metrics
with the already existing route and thus ip6_route_add()
rewrites the metrics even if the new route ends up not being
used at all.
Another problem is that old metrics in inetpeer can reappear
unexpectedly for a new route, e.g.
12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1000
12sp0:~ # ip route del fec0::1
12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0
12sp0:~ # ip route change fec0::1 dev eth0 hoplimit 10
12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show
fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256
fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 hoplimit 10 rto_min lock 1s
Resolve the first problem by moving the setting of metrics down
into fib6_add_rt2node() to the point we are sure we are
inserting the new route into the tree. Second problem is
addressed by introducing new flag DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE
which is set for a new host route in ip6_route_add() and makes
ipv6_cow_metrics() always overwrite the metrics in inetpeer
(even if they are not "new"); it is reset after that.
v5: use a flag in _metrics member rather than one in flags
v4: fix a typo making a condition always true (thanks to Hannes
Frederic Sowa)
v3: rewritten based on David Miller's idea to move setting the
metrics (and allocation in non-host case) down to the point we
already know the route is to be inserted. Also rebased to
net-next as it is quite late in the cycle.

Merge branch 'tipc-next'
Ying Xue says:
====================
tipc: clean up bearer and node layer
This is another commit series which aims at facilitating future
changes to the locking policy around nodes, links and bearers.
Currently, the tipc routing hierarchy comprises the structures 'node',
'link' and 'bearer'. The whole hierarchy is protected by a big
read/write lock (tipc_net_lock), to ensure that nothing is added or
removed while any of these structures is being accessed. Obviously
the locking policy makes node, link and bearer components closely
bound together so that their relationship becomes extremely complex.
In the worst case, such locking policy not only has a negative
influence on performance, but also it's prone to lead to deadlock
occasionally.
In order to decouple the complex relationship between bearer and node
as well as link, the locking policy is adjusted as follows:
- Bearer level
RTNL lock is used on update side, and RCU is used on read side.
Meanwhile, all bearer instances including broadcast bearer are
saved into bearer_list array.
- Node and link level
All node instances are saved into two tipc_node_list and node_htable
lists. The two lists are protected by node_list_lock on write side,
and they are guarded with RCU lock on read side. All members in node
structure including link instances are protected by node spin lock.
- The relationship between bearer and node
When link accesses bearer, it first needs to find the bearer with
its bearer identity from the bearer_list array. When bearer accesses
node, it can iterate the node_htable hash list with the node address
to find the corresponding node.
In the new locking policy, every component has its private locking
solution and the relationship between bearer and node is very simple,
that is, they can find each other with node address or bearer identity
from node_htable hash list or bearer_list array.
But, prior to these changes, we need to do some necessary cleanup and
code consolidation. This is what we do with this commit series. In a
later series we will replace net_lock with RTNL as well as RCU lock
to deploy the new locking policy.

tipc: rename node create lock to protect node list and hlist
When a node is created, tipc_net_lock read lock is first held and
then node_create_lock is grabbed in order to prevent the same node
from being created and inserted into both node list and hlist twice.
But when we query node from the two node lists, we only hold
tipc_net_lock read lock without grabbing node_create_lock. Obviously
this locking policy is unable to guarantee that the two node lists
are always synchronized especially when the operation of changing
and accessing them occurs in different contexts like currently doing.
Therefore, rename node_create_lock to node_list_lock to protect the
two node lists, that is, whenever node is inserted into them or node
is queried from them, the node_list_lock should be always held. As a
result, tipc_net_lock read lock becomes redundant and then can be
removed from the node query functions.

bonding: support QinQ for bond arp interval
The bond send arp request to indicate that the slave is active, and if the bond dev
is a vlan dev, it will set the vlan tag in skb to notice the vlan group, but the
bond could only send a skb with 802.1q proto, not support for QinQ.
So add outer tag for lower vlan tag and inner tag for upper vlan tag to support QinQ,
The new skb will be consist of two vlan tag just like this:
dst mac | src mac | outer vlan tag | inner vlan tag | data | .....
If We don't need QinQ, the inner vlan tag could be set to 0 and use outer vlan tag
as a normal vlan group.
Using "ip link" to configure the bond for QinQ and add test log:
ip link add link bond0 bond0.20 type vlan proto 802.1ad id 20
ip link add link bond0.20 bond0.20.200 type vlan proto 802.1q id 200

xen-netback: Stop using xenvif_tx_pending_slots_available
Since the early days TX stops if there isn't enough free pending slots to
consume a maximum sized (slot-wise) packet. Probably the reason for that is to
avoid the case when we don't have enough free pending slot in the ring to finish
the packet. But if we make sure that the pending ring has the same size as the
shared ring, that shouldn't really happen. The frontend can only post packets
which fit the to the free space of the shared ring. If it doesn't, the frontend
has to stop, as it can only increase the req_prod when the whole packet fits
onto the ring.
This patch avoid using this checking, makes sure the 2 ring has the same size,
and remove a checking from the callback. As now we don't stop the NAPI instance
on this condition, we don't have to wake it up if we free pending slots up.

VFs are currently showing port statistics, although they can't really access

This patch removes said statistics from the VF's view as to not confuse the

bnx2x: Remove the sriov VFOP mechanism
Since we now posses a workqueue dedicated for sriov, the paradigm that sriov-
related tasks cannot sleep is no longer correct.
The VFOP mechanism was the one previously supporting said paradigm - the sriov
related tasks were broken into segments which did not require sleep, and the
mechanism re-scheduled the next segment whenever possible.
This patch remvoes the VFOP mechanism altogether - the resulting code is a much
easier to follow code; The segments are gathered into straight-forward
functions which sleep whenever neccessary.

bnx2x: Create workqueue for IOV related tasks
The bnx2x sriov mechanisms were done in the bnx2x slowpath workitem which
runs on the bnx2x's workqueue; This workitem is also responsible for the bottom
half of interrupt handling in the driver, and specifically it also receives
FW notifications of ramrod completions, allowing other flows to progress.
The original design of the sriov reltaed-flows was based on the notion such
flows must not sleep, since their context is the slowpath workitem.
Otherwise, we might reach timeouts - those flows may wait for ramrod completion
that will never arrive as the workitem wlll not be re-scheduled until that same
flow will be over.
In more recent time bnx2x started supporting features in which the VF interface
can be configured by the tools accessing the PF on the hypervisor.
This support created possible races on the VF-PF lock (which is taken either
when the PF is handling a VF message or when the PF is doing some slowpath work
on behalf of the VF) which may cause timeouts on the VF side and lags on the PF
side.
This patch changes the scheme - it creates a new workqueue for sriov related
tasks and moves all handling currently done in the slowpath task into the the
new workqueue.

====================
Please pull this batch of wireless updates intended for 3.15!
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"This has a whole bunch of bugfixes for things that went into -next
previously as well as some other bugfixes I didn't want to rush into
3.14 at this point. The rest of it is some cleanups and a few small
features, the biggest of which is probably Janusz's regulatory DFS CAC
time code."
For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"One more pull request to 3.15. This is mostly and bug fix pull request, it
contains several fixes and clean up all over the tree, plus some small new
features."
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"This is the NFC pull request for 3.15. With this one we have:
- Support for ISO 15693 a.k.a. NFC vicinity a.k.a. Type 5 tags. ISO
15693 are long range (1 - 2 meters) vicinity tags/cards. The kernel
now supports those through the NFC netlink and digital APIs.
- Support for TI's trf7970a chipset. This chipset relies on the NFC
digital layer and the driver currently supports type 2, 4A and 5 tags.
- Support for NXP's pn544 secure firmare download. The pn544 C3 chipsets
relies on a different firmware download protocal than the C2 one. We
now support both and use the right one depending on the version we
detect at runtime.
- Support for 4A tags from the NFC digital layer.
- A bunch of cleanups and minor fixes from Axel Lin and Thierry Escande."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"We were sending a host command while the mutex wasn't held. This
led to hard-to-catch races."
And...
"I have a fix for a "merge damage" which is not really a merge
damage: it enables scheduled scan which has been disabled in
wireless.git. Since you merged wireless.git into wireless-next.git,
this can now be fixed in wireless-next.git.
Besides this, Alex made a workaround for a hardware bug. This fix
allows us to consume less power in S3. Arik and Eliad continue to
work on D0i3 which is a run-time power saving feature. Eliad also
contributes a few bits to the rate scaling logic to which Eyal adds his
own contribution. Avri dives deep in the power code - newer firmware
will allow to enable power save in newer scenarios. Johannes made a few
clean-ups. I have the regular amount of BT Coex boring stuff. I disable
uAPSD since we identified firmware bugs that cause packet loss. One
thing that do stand out is the udev event that we now send when the
FW asserts. I hope it will allow us to debug the FW more easily."
Also included is one last iwlwifi pull for a build breakage fix...
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"Michal now did some optimisations and was able to improve throughput by
100 Mbps on our MIPS based AP135 platform. Chun-Yeow added some
workarounds to be able to better use ad-hoc mode. Ben improved log
messages and added support for MSDU chaining. And, as usual, also some
smaller fixes."
Beyond that...
Andrea Merello continues his rtl8180 refactoring, in preparation for
a long-awaited rtl8187 driver. We get a new driver (rsi) for the
RS9113 chip, from Fariya Fatima. And, of course, we get the usual
round of updates for ath9k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, wil6210, etc. as well.

====================
Using dev_kfree/consume_skb_any for functions called in multiple contexts
These changes are a result of walking through the network drivers
supporting netpoll and verifying the code paths that netpoll can cause
to be called in hard irq context use an appropriate flavor of
kfree_skb. Either dev_kfree_skb_any or dev_consume_skb_any.
Since my last pass at this I have become aware of the small differences
between dev_kfree_skb_any and dev_consume_skb_any.
net/core/drop_monitor.c reports the dev_kfree_skb_any as a drop and
while being quite about the second. With the weird twist that
dev_kfree_skb is unintuitively consume_skb.
As netpoll now calls the napi poll function with budget == 0, pieces of
a drivers the napi poll function that don't run when budget == 0 have
been ignored.
The most interesting change is to the atl1c which tried unsuccesfully to
tell one of it's functions which context it is called in so that it
could call dev_kfree_skb_irq or dev_kfree_skb as appropriate. I have
just removed the extra parameter and called dev_consume_skb_any.
At 54 separate changes I will post each change as a separate patch (so
they can be reviewed) but for general sanity sake I have gathered them
all into a git branch for easy acces.
