      gianfar: Don't needlessly set the wrap bit for the last RX BD · 14231176
      Anton Vorontsov authored 
      startup_gfar() sets the wrap bit for the last rxbd just after
gfar_new_rxbdp() call, which is issued for all rxbds. And
gfar_new_rxbdp() has the following check already:

	if (bdp == priv->rx_bd_base + priv->rx_ring_size - 1)
		lstatus |= BD_LFLAG(RXBD_WRAP);

So we don't need to set the bit again.

      gianfar: Simplify skb resources freeing code · e69edd21
      Anton Vorontsov authored 
      Remove dma_free_coherent() from stop_gfar() and gfar_start() calls,
place it into free_skb_resources(). That makes SKB resources management
more understandable, plus free_skb_resources() will be used as a cleanup
routine for gfar_alloc_skb_resources() that will be implemented soon.

      gianfar: Some cleanups for startup_gfar() · ccc05c6e
      Anton Vorontsov authored 
      We're going to split the startup_gfar() into 3 separate functions,
so let's cleanup the code a little bit so that cosmetic changes
won't distract attention from logical ones.

- Remove needless casts (e.g. (struct sk_buff **)kmalloc());
- Turn 'unsigned long vaddr;' into 'void *vaddr', to avoid casting;
- Add new 'struct device *dev' variable as a shorthand for
  '&priv->ofdev->dev' that is used all over the place, also rename
  'struct net_device *dev' to 'struct net_device *ndev';
- Turn printk(KERN_ERR ...) to pr_err(...), which is shorter;
- Don't return bogus -1 (i.e. -EPERM) when request_irq() fails;
- Turn '&priv->regs->' to just '&regs->'.

      net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscall · a2e27255
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored 
      Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
net stack entry/exit operations.

Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.

This takes into account comments made by:

. Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
  sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.

. Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
  works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.

  If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
  will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
  one) it has received so far.

. Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
  datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
  the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
  in the next call.

This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
every underlying recvmsg call.
