virtio net used to unlink skbs from send queues on error,
but ever since 48925e37
we do not do this. This causes guest data corruption and crashes
with vhost since net core can requeue the skb or free it without
it being taken off the list.

This patch fixes this by queueing the skb after successful
transmit.

Be more careful about the state of pointers during tear-down.
The "pppoe_dev" field can only be looked at safely while holding socket locks.
This subsequently allows for the flush_lock to be killed.

We depend on the PPPOX_CONNECTED state to tell us that that those fields are
valid, so whoever clears that state (pppox_unbind_sock()) is responsible for
the dev_put() call.

We also have to ensure that we delete_item() on all sockets before they are
cleaned up.

The need for these changes has been exposed by scenarios wherein namespace
bindings of ethernet devices change while there are ongoing PPPoE sessions,
which resulted in oopses due to unusual socket connection termination paths,
exposing these issues.

PCH-based parts (82577/82578) and some ICH8-based parts (82566) need to
hold the swflag (sw/fw/hw hardware semaphore) over consecutive PHY accesses
in order to perform sw-driven PHY configuration during initialization to
workaround known hardware issues (see follow-on patch).  This patch
provides new PHY read/write functions (and function pointers) that will
allow accessing the PHY registers assuming the swflag has already been
acquired.  The actual PHY register access code has moved into helper
functions that are called with a flag indicating whether or not the swflag
has already been acquired and acquires/releases it if not.

The functions called from within the updated PHY access functions had to be
updated to assume the swflag was already acquired, and other functions that
called those functions were also updated to acquire/release the swflag.

Accesses to NVM and PHY/CSR registers on ICHx/PCH-based parts are protected
from concurrent accesses with a mutex that is acquired when the access is
initiated and released when the access has completed.  However, the two
types of accesses should not be protected by the same mutex because the
driver may have to access the NVM while already holding the mutex over
several consecutive PHY/CSR accesses which would result in livelock.

Changing ring sizes while the interface was down was causing a double

The 8110SC rev d chip on our board shows a regression which the 8110SB chip
did not have. When inbound traffic is overflowing the receive descriptor queue,
"holes" in the ring buffer may occur which lead to a hangup until the buffer
is filled again. The packets are than completely processed, but the ring
remains porous and no packets are processed until the next overflow. Setting
the interface down and up can fix the problem temporary from userspace.

For some reason we don't know, this behaviour is not occuring if the RxVlan
bit for hardware VLAN untagging is set. There is another "Work around for
AMD plateform" in the current code which checks the VLAN status
word in receive descriptors, but does never come to effect when hardware
VLAN support is enabled. We assume that this is a bug in the chip.

The following patch fixes the problem. Without the patch we could reproduce
the hang within minutes (given other devices also generating lots of
interrupts), without we couldn't reproduce within a few days of long term
testing.

This version contains minor style adjustments and is sent with mutt which
will hopefully not destroy the formatting again.

Fix TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT conversion between seconds and
retransmission to match the TCP SYN-ACK retransmission periods
because the time is converted to such retransmissions. The old
algorithm selects one more retransmission in some cases. Allow
up to 255 retransmissions.

Change SYN-ACK retransmitting code for the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT
users to not retransmit SYN-ACKs during the deferring period if
ACK from client was received. The goal is to reduce traffic
during the deferring period. When the period is finished
we continue with sending SYN-ACKs (at least one) but this time
any traffic from client will change the request to established
socket allowing application to terminate it properly.
Also, do not drop acked request if sending of SYN-ACK fails.

Willy Tarreau and many other folks in recent years
were concerned what happens when the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period
expires for clients which sent ACK packet. They prefer clients
that actively resend ACK on our SYN-ACK retransmissions to be
converted from open requests to sockets and queued to the
listener for accepting after the deferring period is finished.
Then application server can decide to wait longer for data
or to properly terminate the connection with FIN if read()
returns EAGAIN which is an indication for accepting after
the deferring period. This change still can have side effects
for applications that expect always to see data on the accepted
socket. Others can be prepared to work in both modes (with or
without TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period) and their data processing can
ignore the read=EAGAIN notification and to allocate resources for
clients which proved to have no data to send during the deferring
period. OTOH, servers that use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT=1 as flag (not
as a timeout) to wait for data will notice clients that didn't
send data for 3 seconds but that still resend ACKs.
Thanks to Willy Tarreau for the initial idea and to
Eric Dumazet for the review and testing the change.

This reverts commit 6d01a026.

Julian Anastasov, Willy Tarreau and Eric Dumazet have come up
with a more correct way to deal with this.
