The default maximum transmit length for NCM USB frames should be so
that a short packet happens at the end if the device supports a length
greater than the defined maximum. This is achieved by adding 4 bytes

The firmware is cached during the first successfull call to open() and
released once the network device is unregistered. The driver uses the
cached firmware between open() and unregister_netdev().

So far the firmware is optional : a failure to load the firmware does
not prevent open() to success. It is thus necessary to 1) unregister
all 816x / 810[23] devices and 2) force a driver probe to issue a new
firmware load.

A deadlock was reported to me recently that occured when netconsole was being
used in a virtual guest.  If the virtio_net driver was removed while netconsole
was setup to use an interface that was driven by that driver, the guest
deadlocked.  No backtrace was provided because netconsole was the only console
configured, but it became clear pretty quickly what the problem was.  In
netconsole_netdev_event, if we get an unregister event, we call
__netpoll_cleanup with the target_list_lock held and irqs disabled.
__netpoll_cleanup can, if pending netpoll packets are waiting call
cancel_delayed_work_sync, which is a sleeping path.  the might_sleep call in
that path gets triggered, causing a console warning to be issued.  The
netconsole write handler of course tries to take the target_list_lock again,
which we already hold, causing deadlock.

The fix is pretty striaghtforward.  Simply drop the target_list_lock and
re-enable irqs prior to calling __netpoll_cleanup, the re-acquire the lock, and
restart the loop.  Confirmed by myself to fix the problem reported.

The commit was meant to support transport bridging, and specifically

The mechanism used to initiate work events from the interrupt
handler has a classic read/modify/write race between the interrupt
handler that sets the condition, and the worker task that reads and

mac-fec.c was setting individual UDP address registers instead of multicast
group address registers when joining a multicast group.
This prevented from correctly receiving UDP multicast packets.
According to datasheet, replaced hash_table_high and hash_table_low
with grp_hash_table_high and grp_hash_table_low respectively.
Also renamed hash_table_* with grp_hash_table_* in struct fec declaration
for 8xx: these registers are used only for multicast there.

At this point, skb->data points to skb_transport_header.
So, headroom check is wrong.

For some case:bridge(UFO is on) + eth device(UFO is off),
there is no enough headroom for IPv6 frag head.

The locking with SMPS requests means that the
debugs file should lock the mgd mutex, not the
iflist mutex. Calls to __ieee80211_request_smps()
need to hold that mutex, so add an assertion.

This has always been wrong, but for some reason
never been noticed, probably because the locking
error only happens while unassociated.

The slave member of struct aggregator does not necessarily point
to a slave which is part of the aggregator. It points to the
slave structure containing the aggregator structure, while
completely different slaves (or no slaves at all) may be part of
the aggregator.

The agg_device_up() function wrongly uses agg->slave to find the state
of the aggregator.  Use agg->lag_ports->slave instead. The bug has
been introduced by commit 4cd6fe1c
