      Impact: fix broken /proc/profile on UP machines
      
      Commit c309b917 "cpumask: convert
      kernel/profile.c" broke profiling.  prof_cpu_mask was previously
      initialized to CPU_MASK_ALL, but left uninitialized in that commit.
      We need to copy cpu_possible_mask (cpu_online_mask is not enough).

      x86: fix math_emu register frame access · d315760f
      Tejun Heo authored
      do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that
      it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long
      argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero
      argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless
      of configuration in the current code.
      
      This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like
      other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with
      pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate()
      like normal C functions do.  This way, unless gcc makes a copy of
      struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is
      correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler
      used.
      
      This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it
      somewhat working.

      This crashed when an LRO packet generated by bnx2x reached a
      tun device through the bridge.  We're supposed to drop it at
      the bridge.  However, because the check was placed in br_forward
      instead of __br_forward, it's only effective if we are sending
      the packet through a single port.
      
      This patch fixes it by moving the check into __br_forward.

      IPv6: fix to set device name when new IPv6 over IPv6 tunnel device is created. · 20461c17
      Noriaki TAKAMIYA authored
      When the user creates IPv6 over IPv6 tunnel, the device name created
      by the kernel isn't set to t->parm.name, which is referred as the
      result of ioctl().

      gianfar: Fix boot hangs while bringing up gianfar ethernet · 8707bdd4
      Jarek Poplawski authored
      Ira Snyder found that commit 8c7396ae
      "gianfar: Merge Tx and Rx interrupt for scheduling clean up ring" can
      cause hangs. It's because there was removed clearing of interrupts in
      gfar_schedule_cleanup() (which is called by an interrupt handler) in
      case when netif scheduling has been disabled. This patch brings back
      this action and a comment.
