      irda: Remove IRDA_<TYPE> logging macros · 6c91023d
      Joe Perches authored
      And use the more common mechanisms directly.
      
      Other miscellanea:
      
      o Coalesce formats
      o Add missing newlines
      o Realign arguments
      o Remove unnecessary OOM message logging as
        there's a generic stack dump already on OOM.

      net: kill netif_copy_real_num_queues() · 09626e9d
      WANG Cong authored
      vlan was the only user of netif_copy_real_num_queues(),
      but it no longer calls it after
      commit 4af429d2 ("vlan: lockless transmit path").
      So we can just remove it.

      ====================
      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-11-11
      
      This series contains updates to i40e, i40evf and ixgbe.
      
      Kamil updated the i40e and i40evf driver to poll the firmware slower
      since we were polling faster than the firmware could respond.
      
      Shannon updates i40e to add a check to keep the service_task from
      running the periodic tasks more than once per second, while still
      allowing quick action to service the events.
      
      Jesse cleans up the throttle rate code by fixing the minimum interrupt
      throttle rate and removing some unused defines.
      
      Mitch makes the early init admin queue message receive code more robust
      by handling messages in a loop and ignoring those that we are not
      interested in.  This also gets rid of some scary log messages that
      really do not indicate a problem.
      
      Don provides several ixgbe patches, first fixes an issue with x540
      completion timeout where on topologies including few levels of PCIe
      switching for x540 can run into an unexpected completion error.  Cleans
      up the functionality in ixgbe_ndo_set_vf_vlan() in preparation for
      future work.  Adds support for x550 MAC's to the driver.
      
      v2:
       - Remove code comment in patch 01 of the series, based on feedback from
         David Liaght
       - Updated the "goto" to "break" statements in patch 06 of the series,
         based on feedback from Sergei Shtylyov
       - Initialized the variable err due to the possibility of use before
         being assigned a value in patch 07 of the series
       - Added patch "ixgbe: add helper function for setting RSS key in
         preparation of X550" since it is needed for the addition of X550 MAC
         support

      usbnet: smsc95xx: dereferencing NULL pointer · 8bca81d9
      Sudip Mukherjee authored
      we were dereferencing dev to initialize pdata. but just after that we
      have a BUG_ON(!dev). so we were basically dereferencing the pointer
      first and then tesing it for NULL.

      neigh: remove dynamic neigh table registration support · d7480fd3
      WANG Cong authored
      Currently there are only three neigh tables in the whole kernel:
      arp table, ndisc table and decnet neigh table. What's more,
      we don't support registering multiple tables per family.
      Therefore we can just make these tables statically built-in.

      stmmac: split to core library and probe drivers · b2e2f0c7
      Andy Shevchenko authored
      Instead of registering the platform and PCI drivers in one module let's move
      necessary bits to where it belongs. During this procedure we convert the module
      registration part to use module_*_driver() macros which makes code simplier.
      
      >From now on the driver consists three parts: core library, PCI, and platform
      drivers.

      net: Convert LIMIT_NETDEBUG to net_dbg_ratelimited · ba7a46f1
      Joe Perches authored
      Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited
      and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro.
      
      All messages are still ratelimited.
      
      Some KERN_<LEVEL> uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG.
      
      This may have some negative impact on messages that were
      emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
      DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled.  Even so,
      these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.
      
      This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl
      "/proc/sys/net/core/warnings".  For backward compatibility,
      the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function.  The extern
      declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made
      static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
      
      Miscellanea:
      
      o Update the sysctl documentation
      o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt
      o Coalesce format fragments
      o Realign arguments

      Open vSwitch
      
      Following batch of patches brings feature parity between upstream
      ovs and out of tree ovs module.
      
      Two features are added, first adds support to export egress
      tunnel information for a packet. This is used to improve
      visibility in network traffic. Second feature allows userspace
      vswitchd process to probe ovs module features. Other patches
      are optimization and code cleanup.
