The introduction of this schedule point was done in commit
2ba2506c ("[NET]: Add preemption point in qdisc_run")
at a time the loop was not bounded.

Then later in commit d5b8aa1d ("net_sched: fix dequeuer fairness")
we added a limit on the number of packets.

Now is the time to remove the schedule point, since the default
limit of 64 packets matches the number of packets a typical NAPI
poll can process in a row.

This solves a latency problem for most TCP receivers under moderate load :

1) host receives a packet.
   NET_RX_SOFTIRQ is raised by NIC hard IRQ handler

2) __do_softirq() does its first loop, handling NET_RX_SOFTIRQ
   and calling the driver napi->loop() function

3) TCP stores the skb in socket receive queue:

4) TCP calls sk->sk_data_ready() and wakeups a user thread
   waiting for EPOLLIN (as a result, need_resched() might now be true)

5) TCP cooks an ACK and sends it.

6) qdisc_run() processes one packet from qdisc, and sees need_resched(),
   this raises NET_TX_SOFTIRQ (even if there are no more packets in
   the qdisc)

Then we go back to the __do_softirq() in 2), and we see that new
softirqs were raised. Since need_resched() is true, we end up waking
ksoftirqd in this path :

    if (pending) {
            if (time_before(jiffies, end) && !need_resched() &&
                --max_restart)
                    goto restart;

            wakeup_softirqd();
    }

So we have many wakeups of ksoftirqd kernel threads,
and more calls to qdisc_run() with associated lock overhead.

Note that another way to solve the issue would be to change TCP
to first send the ACK packet, then signal the EPOLLIN,
but this changes P99 latencies, as sending the ACK packet
can add a long delay.

SJA1105 DSA coding style cleanup

This series provides some mechanical cleanup patches related to function
names and prototypes.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The most commonly called function in the driver is long due for a
rename. The "packed" word is redundant (it doesn't make sense to
transfer an unpacked structure, since that is in CPU endianness yadda
yadda), and the "spi" word is also redundant since argument 2 of the
function is SPI_READ or SPI_WRITE.

As for the sja1105_spi_send_long_packed_buf function, it is only being
used from sja1105_spi.c, so remove its global prototype.

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Having a function that takes a variable number of unpacked bytes which
it generically calls an "int" is confusing and makes auditing patches
next to impossible.

We only use spi_send_int with the int sizes of 32 and 64 bits. So just
make the spi_send_int function less generic and replace it with the
appropriate two explicit functions, which can now type-check the int
pointer type.

Note that there is still a small weirdness in the u32 function, which
has to convert it to a u64 temporary. This is because of how the packing
API works at the moment, but the weirdness is at least hidden from
callers of sja1105_xfer_u32 now.

Experimental SMB rootfs support

This patch series enables Linux to mount root file systems over the
network by utilizing SMB protocol.

Upstream commit 8eecd1c2 ("cifs: Add support for root file
systems") introduced a new CONFIG_CIFS_ROOT option, a virtual device
(Root_CIFS) and a kernel cmdline parameter "cifsroot=" which tells the
kernel to actually mount the root filesystem over a SMB share.

The feature relies on ipconfig to set up the network prior to mounting
the rootfs, so when it is set along with "cifsroot=" parameter:

    (1) cifs_root_setup() parses all necessary data out of "cifsroot="
    parameter for the init process know how to mount the SMB rootfs
    (e.g. SMB server address, mount options).

    (2) If DHCP failed for some reason in ipconfig, we keep retrying
    forever as we have nowhere to go for NFS or SMB root
    filesystems (see PATCH 2/2). Otherwise go to (3).

    (3) mount_cifs_root() is then called by mount_root() (ROOT_DEV ==
    Root_CIFS), retrieves early parsed data from (1), then attempt to
    mount SMB rootfs by CIFSROOT_RETRY_MAX times at most (see PATCH
    1/2).

    (4) If all attempts failed, fall back to floppy drive, otherwise
    continue the boot process with rootfs mounted over a SMB share.

My idea was to keep the same behavior of nfsroot - as it seems to work
for most users so far.

net: introduce alternative names for network interfaces

In the past, there was repeatedly discussed the IFNAMSIZ (16) limit for
netdevice name length. Now when we have PF and VF representors
with port names like "pfXvfY", it became quite common to hit this limit:
0123456789012345
enp131s0f1npf0vf6
enp131s0f1npf0vf22

Udev cannot rename these interfaces out-of-the-box and user needs to
create custom rules to handle them.

Also, udev has multiple schemes of netdev names. From udev code:
 * Type of names:
 *   b<number>                             - BCMA bus core number
 *   c<bus_id>                             - bus id of a grouped CCW or CCW device,
 *                                           with all leading zeros stripped [s390]
 *   o<index>[n<phys_port_name>|d<dev_port>]
 *                                         - on-board device index number
 *   s<slot>[f<function>][n<phys_port_name>|d<dev_port>]
 *                                         - hotplug slot index number
 *   x<MAC>                                - MAC address
 *   [P<domain>]p<bus>s<slot>[f<function>][n<phys_port_name>|d<dev_port>]
 *                                         - PCI geographical location
 *   [P<domain>]p<bus>s<slot>[f<function>][u<port>][..][c<config>][i<interface>]
 *                                         - USB port number chain
 *   v<slot>                               - VIO slot number (IBM PowerVM)
 *   a<vendor><model>i<instance>           - Platform bus ACPI instance id
 *   i<addr>n<phys_port_name>              - Netdevsim bus address and port name

One device can be often renamed by multiple patterns at the
same time (e.g. pci address/mac).

This patchset introduces alternative names for network interfaces.
Main goal is to:
1) Overcome the IFNAMSIZ limitation (altname limitation is 128 bytes)
2) Allow to have multiple names at the same time (multiple udev patterns)
3) Allow to use alternative names as handle for commands

The patchset introduces two new commands to add/delete list of properties.
Currently only alternative names are implemented but the ifrastructure
could be easily extended later on. This is very similar to the list of vlan
and tunnels being added/deleted to/from bridge ports.

See following examples.

$ ip link
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
