[TCP]: use non-delayed ACK for congestion control RTT
When a delayed ACK representing two packets arrives, there are two RTT
samples available, one for each packet. The first (in order of seq
number) will be artificially long due to the delay waiting for the
second packet, the second will trigger the ACK and so will not itself
be delayed.
According to rfc1323, the SRTT used for RTO calculation should use the
first rtt, so receivers echo the timestamp from the first packet in
the delayed ack. For congestion control however, it seems measuring
delayed ack delay is not desirable as it varies independently of
congestion.
The patch below causes seq_rtt and last_ackt to be updated with any
available later packet rtts which should have less (and hopefully
zero) delack delay. The rtt value then gets passed to
ca_ops->pkts_acked().
Where TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP was set, effort was made to supress RTTs from
within a TSO chunk (!fully_acked), using only the final ACK (which
includes any TSO delay) to generate RTTs. This patch removes these
checks so RTTs are passed for each ACK to ca_ops->pkts_acked().
For non-delay based congestion control (cubic, h-tcp), rtt is
sometimes used for rtt-scaling. In shortening the RTT, this may make
them a little less aggressive. Delay-based schemes (eg vegas, veno,
illinois) should get a cleaner, more accurate congestion signal,
particularly for small cwnds. The congestion control module can
potentially also filter out bad RTTs due to the delayed ack alarm by
looking at the associated cnt which (where delayed acking is in use)
should probably be 1 if the alarm went off or greater if the ACK was
triggered by a packet.

[SERIAL]: Fix section mismatches in Sun serial console drivers.
We're exporting an __init function, oops :-)
The core issue here is that add_preferred_console() is marked
as __init, this makes it impossible to invoke this thing from
a driver probe routine which is what the Sparc serial drivers
need to do.
There is no harm in dropping the __init marker. This code will
actually work properly when invoked from a modular driver,
except that init will probably not pick up the console change
without some other support code.
Then we can drop the __init from sunserial_console_match()
and we're no longer exporting an __init function to modules.

[IPV4] Fix ip=dhcp regression
David Brownell pointed out a regression in my recent "Fix ip command
line processing" patch. It turns out to be a fairly blatant oversight on
my part whereby ic_enable is never set, and thus autoconfiguration is
never enabled. Clearly my testing was broken :-(
The solution that I have is to set ic_enable to 1 if we hit
ip_auto_config_setup(), which basically means that autoconfiguration is
activated unless told otherwise. I then flip ic_enable to 0 if ip=off,
ip=none, ip=::::::off or ip=::::::none using ic_proto_name();
The incremental patch is below, let me know if a non-incremental version
is prepared, as I did as for the original patch to be reverted pending a

[PCI] Do not enable CRS Software Visibility by default
It appears that some PCI-E bridges do the wrong thing in the presense of
CRS Software Visibility and MMCONFIG. In particular, it looks like an
ATI bridge (device ID 7936) will return 0001 in the vendor ID field of
any bridged devices indefinitely.
Not enabling CRS SV avoids the problem, and as we currently do not
really make good use of the feature anyway (we just time out rather than
do any threaded discovery as suggested by the CRS specs), we're better
off just not enabling it.
This should fix a slew of problem reports with random devices (generally
graphics adapters or fairly high-performance networking cards, since it
only affected PCI-E) not getting properly recognized on these AMD systems.
If we really want to use CRS-SV, we may end up eventually needing a
whitelist of systems where this should be enabled, along with some kind
of "pcibios_enable_crs()" query to call the system-specific code.

tty: fix logic change introduced by wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
Commit
5a52bd4a2dcb570333ce6fe2e16cd311650dbdc8 introduced a subtle logic
change in tty_wait_until_sent(). The original version would only error out
of the 'do { ... } while (timeout)' loop if signal_pending() evaluated to
true; a timeout or break due to an empty buffer would fall out of the loop
and into the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling. The current
implementation will error out on either a pending signal or an empty
buffer, falling through to the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling only
on a timeout.
The ->wait_until_sent() will not be reached if the buffer empties before
timeout jiffies have elapsed. This behavior differs from that prior to commit
5a52bd4a2dcb570333ce6fe2e16cd311650dbdc8.
I turned this up while using a little serial download utility to bootstrap an
ARM-based eval board. The util worked fine on 2.6.22.x, but consistently
failed on 2.6.23.x. Once I'd determined that, I narrowed things down with git
bisect, and found the above difference in logic in tty_wait_until_sent() by
inspection.
This change reverts the logic flow in tty_wait_until_sent() to match that
prior to the aforementioned commit.

lib: proportion: fix underflow in prop_norm_percpu()
Zhe Jiang noticed that its possible to underflow pl->events in
prop_norm_percpu() when the value returned by percpu_counter_read() is less
than the error on that read and the period delay > 1. In that case half might
not trigger the batch increment and the value will be identical on the next
iteration, causing the same half to be subtracted again and again.
Fix this by rewriting the division as a single subtraction instead of a
subtraction loop and using percpu_counter_sum() when the value returned by
percpu_counter_read() is smaller than the error.
The latter is still needed if we want pl->events to shrink properly in the
error region.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than
CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int
type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
msg->msg_control += cmlen;
msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

out:
return err;
}
The same promble exists in put_cmsg_compat(). This patch can fix this
problem.
