      This time just passing along a big batch of fixes from Johannes...
      
      For the mac80211 bits:
      
      "Here I have fixes from Ben Greear for stray work items when deleting
      interfaces, another idle handling fix from Felix, a fix from Marco ro a
      mesh PS buffering crash and I have a fix for the VHT MCS calculation in
      association request frames and more nl80211 feature advertising removal
      as well as a workaround to increase the dump size if the SKB overhead is
      too large. For 3.10 I already have a complete fix queued, but that also
      requires (simple) userspace changes."
      
      And for the iwlwifi bits:
      
      "The patches from Dor fix a bunch of calibration issues in the new MVM
      driver, and Emmanuel has a number of fixes there as well. Also, we
      decided to disable 8k A-MSDU by default, so that's in there. My own
      patches are addressing an issue we found with the new devices but that
      seems to also exist on older ones, the DMA writeback the devices do can
      be delayed and cause issues. The fix is unfortunately relatively large
      and depends on two other changes (to not be hugely conflicting), but I
      think it's still worth it at this point."
      
      As Johannes says, it is a bit large.  But I hope it is still early
      enough in the cycle to make that worthwhile.

      Ben Hutchings authored
      efx_device_detach_sync() locks all TX queues before marking the device
      detached and thus disabling further TX scheduling.  But it can still
      be interrupted by TX completions which then result in TX scheduling in
      soft interrupt context.  This will deadlock when it tries to acquire
      a TX queue lock that efx_device_detach_sync() already acquired.
      
      To avoid deadlock, we must use netif_tx_{,un}lock_bh().

      benet: Wait f/w POST until timeout · 66d29cbc
      Gavin Shan authored
      While PCI card faces EEH errors, reset (usually hot reset) is
      expected to recover from the EEH errors. After EEH core finishes
      the reset, the driver callback (be_eeh_reset) is called and wait
      the firmware to complete POST successfully. The original code would
      return with error once detecting failure during POST stage. That
      seems not enough.
      
      The patch forces the driver (be_eeh_reset) to wait the firmware
      completes POST until timeout, instead of returning error upon
      detection POST failure immediately. Also, it would improve the
      reliability of the EEH funtionality of the driver.

      net/ipv4: Timestamp option cannot overflow with prespecified addresses · fa2b04f4
      David Ward authored
      When a router forwards a packet that contains the IPv4 timestamp option,
      if there is no space left in the option for the router to add its own
      timestamp, then the router increments the Overflow value in the option.
      
      However, if the addresses of the routers are prespecified in the option,
      then the overflow condition cannot happen: the option is structured so
      that each prespecified router has a place to write its timestamp. Other
      routers do not add a timestamp, so there will never be a lack of space.
      
      This fix ensures that the Overflow value in the IPv4 timestamp option is
      not incremented when the addresses of the routers are prespecified, even
      if the Pointer value is greater than the Length value.

      reset nf before xmit vxlan encapsulated packet · 88c4c066
      Zang MingJie authored
      We should reset nf settings bond to the skb as ipip/ipgre do.
      
      If not, the conntrack/nat info bond to the origin packet may continually
      redirect the packet to vxlan interface causing a routing loop.
      
      this is the scenario:
      
           VETP     VXLAN Gateway
          /----\  /---------------\
          |    |  |               |

          |    |  |               |
          \----/  \---------------/
      
      when there are any packet coming from internet to the vetp, there will be lots
      of garbage packets coming out the gateway's vxlan interface, but none actually
      sent to the physical interface, because they are redirected back to the vxlan
      interface in the postrouting chain of NAT rule, and dmesg complains:

      pkt_sched: sch_qfq: remove a useless invocation of qfq_update_eligible · 76e4cb0d
      Paolo Valente authored
      QFQ+ can select for service only 'eligible' aggregates, i.e.,
      aggregates that would have started to be served also in the emulated
      ideal system.  As a consequence, for QFQ+ to be work conserving, at
      least one of the active aggregates must be eligible when it is time to
      choose the next aggregate to serve.
      
      The set of eligible aggregates is updated through the function
      qfq_update_eligible(), which does guarantee that, after its
      invocation, at least one of the active aggregates is eligible.
      Because of this property, this function is invoked in
      qfq_deactivate_agg() to guarantee that at least one of the active
      aggregates is still eligible after an aggregate has been deactivated.
      In particular, the critical case is when there are other active
      aggregates, but the aggregate being deactivated happens to be the only
      one eligible.
      
      However, this precaution is not needed for QFQ+ to be work conserving,
      because update_eligible() is always invoked also at the beginning of
      qfq_choose_next_agg(). This patch removes the additional invocation of
      update_eligible() in qfq_deactivate_agg().

      By definition of (the algorithm of) QFQ+, the system virtual time must
      be pushed up only if there is no 'eligible' aggregate, i.e. no
      aggregate that would have started to be served also in the ideal
      system emulated by QFQ+.  QFQ+ serves only eligible aggregates, hence
      the aggregate currently in service is eligible.  As a consequence, to
      decide whether there is no eligible aggregate, QFQ+ must also check
      whether there is no aggregate in service.

      pkt_sched: sch_qfq: prevent budget from wrapping around after a dequeue · a0143efa
      Paolo Valente authored
      Aggregate budgets are computed so as to guarantee that, after an
      aggregate has been selected for service, that aggregate has enough
      budget to serve at least one maximum-size packet for the classes it
      contains. For this reason, after a new aggregate has been selected
      for service, its next packet is immediately dequeued, without any
      further control.
      
      The maximum packet size for a class, lmax, can be changed through
      qfq_change_class(). In case the user sets lmax to a lower value than
      the the size of some of the still-to-arrive packets, QFQ+ will
      automatically push up lmax as it enqueues these packets.  This
      automatic push up is likely to happen with TSO/GSO.
      
      In any case, if lmax is assigned a lower value than the size of some
      of the packets already enqueued for the class, then the following
      problem may occur: the size of the next packet to dequeue for the
      class may happen to be larger than lmax, after the aggregate to which
      the class belongs has been just selected for service. In this case,
      even the budget of the aggregate, which is an unsigned value, may be
      lower than the size of the next packet to dequeue. After dequeueing
      this packet and subtracting its size from the budget, the latter would
      wrap around.
      
      This fix prevents the budget from wrapping around after any packet
      dequeue.

      pkt_sched: sch_qfq: serve activated aggregates immediately if the scheduler is empty · 2f3b89a1
      Paolo Valente authored
      If no aggregate is in service, then the function qfq_dequeue() does
      not dequeue any packet. For this reason, to guarantee QFQ+ to be work
      conserving, a just-activated aggregate must be set as in service
      immediately if it happens to be the only active aggregate.
      This is done by the function qfq_enqueue().
      
      Unfortunately, the function qfq_add_to_agg(), used to add a class to
      an aggregate, does not perform this important additional operation.
      In particular, if: 1) qfq_add_to_agg() is invoked to complete the move
      of a class from a source aggregate, becoming, for this move, inactive,
      to a destination aggregate, becoming instead active, and 2) the
      destination aggregate becomes the only active aggregate, then this
      aggregate is not however set as in service. QFQ+ remains then in a
      non-work-conserving state until a new invocation of qfq_enqueue()
      recovers the situation.
      
      This fix solves the problem by moving the logic for setting an
      aggregate as in service directly into the function qfq_activate_agg().
      Hence, from whatever point qfq_activate_aggregate() is invoked, QFQ+
      remains work conserving.  Since the more-complex logic of this new
      version of activate_aggregate() is not necessary, in qfq_dequeue(), to
      reschedule an aggregate that finishes its budget, then the aggregate
      is now rescheduled by invoking directly the functions needed.

      Between two invocations of make_eligible, the system virtual time may

      pkt_sched: sch_qfq: properly cap timestamps in charge_actual_service · 9b99b7e9
      Paolo Valente authored
      QFQ+ schedules the active aggregates in a group using a bucket list
      (one list per group). The bucket in which each aggregate is inserted
      depends on the aggregate's timestamps, and the number
      of buckets in a group is enough to accomodate the possible (range of)
      values of the timestamps of all the aggregates in the group. For this
      property to hold, timestamps must however be computed correctly.  One
      necessary condition for computing timestamps correctly is that the
      number of bits dequeued for each aggregate, while the aggregate is in
      service, does not exceed the maximum budget budgetmax assigned to the
      aggregate.
      
      For each aggregate, budgetmax is proportional to the number of classes
      in the aggregate. If the number of classes of the aggregate is
      decreased through qfq_change_class(), then budgetmax is decreased
      automatically as well.  Problems may occur if the aggregate is in
      service when budgetmax is decreased, because the current remaining
      budget of the aggregate and/or the service already received by the
      aggregate may happen to be larger than the new value of budgetmax.  In
      this case, when the aggregate is eventually deselected and its
      timestamps are updated, the aggregate may happen to have received an
      amount of service larger than budgetmax.  This may cause the aggregate
      to be assigned a higher virtual finish time than the maximum
      acceptable value for the last bucket in the bucket list of the group.
      
      This fix introduces a cap that addresses this issue.

      net/irda: Use barrier to set task state · 0b176ce3
      Peter Hurley authored
      Without a memory and compiler barrier, the task state change
      can migrate relative to the condition testing in a blocking loop.
      However, the task state change must be visible across all cpus
      prior to testing those conditions. Failing to do this can result
      in the familiar 'lost wakeup' and this task will hang until killed.

      Saving the port count bump is unsafe. If the tty is hung up while
      this open was blocking, the port count is zeroed.
      
      Explicitly check if the tty was hung up while blocking, and correct

      ===================
      This series contains fixes to e1000e and igb.
      
      The e1000e fix resolves an issue at 1000Mbps link speed, where one of the
      MAC's internal clocks can be stopped for up to 4us when entering K1 (a
      power mode of the MAC-PHY interconnect).  If the MAC is waiting for
      completion indications for 2 DMA write requests into Host memory
      (e.g. descriptor writeback or Rx packet writing) and the
      indications occur while the clock is stopped, both indications will be
      missed by the MAC causing the MAC to wait for the completion indications
      and be unable to generate further DMA write requests.  This results in an
      apparent hardware hang.  The patch works-around the issue by disabling
      the de-assertion of the clock request when 1000Mbps link is acquired (K1
      must be disabled while doing this).
      
      The igb fix to drop BUILD_BUG_ON check from igb_build_rx_buffer resolves
      a build error on s390 devices.  The igb driver was throwing a build error
      due to the fact that a frame built using build_skb would be larger than 2K.
      Since this is not likely to change at any point in the future we are better
      off just dropping the check since we already had a check in
      igb_set_rx_buffer_len that will just disable the usage of build_skb anyway.
      
      The igb fix for i210 link setup changes the setup copper link function
      to use a switch statement, so that the appropriate setup link function
      is called for the given PHY types.
      
      Lastly, the igb fix for a lockdep issue in igb_get_i2c_client resolves
      the issue by re-factoring the initialization and usage of the i2c_client.
