When mac80211 wants to ensure that a frame is sent, it calls
the flush() callback. Until now, iwldvm implemented this by
waiting that all the frames are sent (ACKed or timeout).
In case of weak signal, this can take a significant amount
of time, delaying the next connection (in case of roaming).
Many users have reported that the flush would take too long
leading to the following error messages to be printed:

iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues Q 2
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Current SW read_ptr 161 write_ptr 201
iwl data: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fe ff 01 00 00 00 00 00
[snip]
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: FH TRBs(0) = 0x00000000
[snip]
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Q 0 is active and mapped to fifo 3 ra_tid 0x0000 [9,9]
[snip]

Instead of waiting for these packets, simply drop them. This
significantly improves the responsiveness of the network.
Note that all the queues are flushed, but the VO one. This
is not typically used by the applications and it likely
contains management frames that are useful for connection
or roaming.

This bug is tracked here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56581

But it is duplicated in distributions' trackers.

Don't add the time event to the list. We added it several
times the same time event, which leads to an infinite loop
when walking the list.

Since we (currently) don't support more than one ROC for STA
vif at a time, enforce this and don't add the time event
to any list.

We were also missing the locking of the mutex which led to
a lockdep splat - fix that.

The LTR is the handshake between the device and the root
complex about the latency allowed when the bus exits power
save. This configuration was missing and this led to high
latency in the link power up. The end user could experience
high latency in the network because of this.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Most notable changes in here:

   1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
      contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit.  This is
      the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
      several individuals.

      Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
      skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
      telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.

      skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
      call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.

      There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
      packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
      software is now done with no locks held.

      Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
      be used to test a multi-send implementation.

      Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
      virtio_net

      Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
      support this optimization soon.

      I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
      Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
      Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
      David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.

   2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.

   3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
      ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver.  From
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan.

   4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
      driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
      Florian Fainelli.

   5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
      to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
      into pools of pages.  The objective is to get exactly the
      necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
      but no more.  The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
      From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
      by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
      Dumazet.

   6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
      encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility.  From Tom
      Herbert.

   7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
      Fainelli.

   8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
      testsuite.  Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.

   9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
      areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators.  From John
      Fastabend.

  10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
      Duyck.

  11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
      Dumazet.

  12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
      Florian Westphal.

  13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
      faster.  From Eric Dumazet"

  This time, there is only one set of changes, adding support for the

  If all goes well, we will never require adding actual C source code

then casted it to a u64 pointer.  It was confusing and triggered some
static checker warnings.

I have changed the cxgb_pio_copy() function to only take tx_desc
pointers.  This isn't really a loss of flexibility because anything else
was buggy to begin with.

I also removed the casting on the destination pointer since that was
unnecessary and a bit messy.

net: fs_enet: Remove non NAPI RX and add NAPI for TX

When using a MPC8xx as a router, 'perf' shows a significant time spent in
fs_enet_interrupt() and fs_enet_start_xmit().
'perf annotate' shows that the time spent in fs_enet_start_xmit is indeed spent
between spin_unlock_irqrestore() and the following instruction, hence in
interrupt handling. This is due to the TX complete interrupt that fires after
each transmitted packet.
This patchset first remove all non NAPI handling as NAPI has become the only
mode for RX, then adds NAPI for handling TX complete.
This improves NAT TCP throughput by 21% on MPC885 with FEC.

Tested on MPC885 with FEC.

RTL8168EP is Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet controller with DASH support.
It is a successor chip of RTL8168DP.

For RTL8168EP, the read/write ocp register is via eri channel type 2, so I
move ocp_xxx() related functions under rtl_eri_xxx. And use r8168dp_ocp_xxx()
for RTL8168DP ocp read/write, r8168ep_ocp_xxx() for RTL8168EP ocp read/write.

The way of checking dash enable is different with RTL8168DP. I use
r8168dp_check_dash()for RTL8168DP and r8168ep_check_dash() for RTL8168EP,
to check if dash is enabled.

The driver_start() and driver_stop() of RTL8168EP is also different with
RTL8168DP. I use rtl8168dp_driver_xxx() for RTL8168DP and
rtl8168ep_driver_xxx for RTL8168EP.

Right now, RTL8168EP phy mcu did not need firmware code patch, so I did not
add firmware code for it.

Because CCN's cycle counter always runs, it will generate
an interrupt on overflow even if the relevant perf event
was not requested, causing a spurious warning message.

Fixed now by warning on only normal counter unwanted
overflows. Also cleaning the overflow mask at init now,
not to warn on event previously requested by firmware.
