      Merge networking fixes from David Miller:
      
       1) Revert Johannes Berg's genetlink locking fix, because it causes
          regressions.
      
          Johannes and Pravin Shelar are working on fixing things properly.
      
       2) Do not drop ipv6 ICMP messages without a redirected header option,
          they are legal.  From Duan Jiong.
      
       3) Missing error return propagation in probing of via-ircc driver.
          From Alexey Khoroshilov.
      
       4) Do not clear out broadcast/multicast/unicast/WOL bits in r8169 when
          initializing, from Peter Wu.
      
       5) realtek phy driver programs wrong interrupt status bit, from
          Giuseppe CAVALLARO.
      
       6) Fix statistics regression in AF_PACKET code, from Willem de Bruijn.
      
       7) Bridge code uses wrong bitmap length, from Toshiaki Makita.
      
       8) SFC driver uses wrong indexes to look up MAC filters, from Ben
          Hutchings.
      
       9) Don't pass stack buffers into usb control operations in hso driver,
          from Daniel Gimpelevich.
      
      10) Multiple ipv6 fragmentation headers in one packet is illegal and
          such packets should be dropped, from Hannes Frederic Sowa.
      
      11) When TCP sockets are "repaired" as part of checkpoint/restart, the
          timestamp field of SKBs need to be refreshed otherwise RTOs can be
          wildly off.  From Andrey Vagin.
      
      12) Fix memcpy args (uses 'address of pointer' instead of 'pointer') in
          hostp driver.  From Dan Carpenter.
      
      13) nl80211hdr_put() doesn't return an ERR_PTR, but some code believes
          it does.  From Dan Carpenter.
      
      14) Fix regression in wireless SME disconnects, from Johannes Berg.
      
      15) Don't use a stack buffer for DMA in zd1201 USB wireless driver, from
          Jussi Kivilinna.

      Michal Hocko authored
      The swapaccount kernel parameter without any values has been removed by
      commit a2c8990a ("memsw: remove noswapaccount kernel parameter") but
      it seems that we didn't get rid of all the left overs.
      
      Make sure that menuconfig help text and kernel-parameters.txt are clear
      about value for the paramter and remove the stalled comment which is not
      very much useful on its own.

      nilfs2: fix issue with counting number of bio requests for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection · 4bf93b50
      Vyacheslav Dubeyko authored
      Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for
      BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case.
      
      The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as
      complete() function was called (or will be called) because
      nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of
      times set to sb_nbio:
      
        do {
            wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event);
        } while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);
      
      Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
      same number of times for the same sb_bio_event.  Otherwise,
      wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

      drivers/platform/olpc/olpc-ec.c: initialise earlier · 93dbc1b3
      Daniel Drake authored
      Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g.  olpc-battery) assume
      that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during
      probe.  Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other
      drivers try to use it.  This was the case until it was recently moved
      out of arch/x86 and restructured around commits ac250415 ("Platform:
      OLPC: turn EC driver into a platform_driver") and 85f90cf6 ("x86:
      OLPC: switch over to using new EC driver on x86").
      
      Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the
      previous behaviour.
      
      Fixes a regression introduced in Linux-3.6 where various drivers such as
      olpc-battery and olpc-xo1-sci failed to load due to an inability to
      communicate with the EC.  The user-visible effect was a lack of battery
      monitoring, missing ebook/lid switch input devices, etc.

      ipv4: expose IPV4_DEVCONF · 4a5a8aa6
      stephen hemminger authored
      IP sends device configuration (see inet_fill_link_af) as an array
      in the netlink information, but the indices in that array are not
      exposed to userspace through any current santized header file.
      
      It was available back in 2.6.32 (in /usr/include/linux/sysctl.h)
      but was broken by:
        commit 02291680
        Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
        Date:   Sun Feb 14 03:25:51 2010 +0000
      
          net ipv4: Decouple ipv4 interface parameters from binary sysctl numbers
      
      Eric was solving the sysctl problem but then the indices were re-exposed
      by a later addition of devconf support for IPV4
      
        commit 9f0f7272
        Author: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org>
        Date:   Tue Nov 16 04:32:48 2010 +0000
      
          ipv4: AF_INET link address family
      
      Putting them in /usr/include/linux/ip.h seemed the logical match
      for the DEVCONF_ definitions for IPV6 in /usr/include/linux/ip6.h

      ipv6: handle Redirect ICMP Message with no Redirected Header option · c92a59ec
      Duan Jiong authored
      rfc 4861 says the Redirected Header option is optional, so
      the kernel should not drop the Redirect Message that has no
      Redirected Header option. In this patch, the function
      ip6_redirect_no_header() is introduced to deal with that
      condition.

      be2net: fix disabling TX in be_close() · 6e1f9975
      Sathya Perla authored
      commit fba87559 ("disable TX in be_close()") disabled TX in be_close()
      to protect be_xmit() from touching freed up queues in the AER recovery
      flow.  But, TX must be disabled *before* cleaning up TX completions in
      the close() path, not after. This allows be_tx_compl_clean() to free up
      all TX-req skbs that were notified to the HW.
