Pull networking changes from David Miller:
"Most importantly this should cure the ipv4-mapped ipv6 socket TCP
crashes some people were seeing, otherwise:
1) Fix e1000e autonegotiation handling regression, from Tushar Dave.
2) Fix TX data corruption race on e1000e down, also from Tushar Dave.
3) Fix bfin_sir IRDA driver build, from Sonic Zhang.
4) AF_PACKET mmap() tests a flag in the TX ring shared between
userspace and the kernel for an internal consistency check. It
really shouldn't do this to validate the kernel's own behavior
because the user can corrupt it to be any value at all. From
Daniel Borkmann.
5) Fix TCP metrics leak on netns dismantle, from Eric Dumazet.
6) Orphan the anonymous TCP socket from the SKB in
ip_send_unicast_reply() so that the rest of the stack needn't see
it. Otherwise we get selinux problems of all sorts, from Eric
Dumazet.
This is the best way to fix this since the socket is just a place
holder for sending packets in a context where we have no real
socket at all.
7) Fix TUN detach crashes, from Stanislav Kinsbursky.
8) dev_set_alias() leaks memory on krealloc() failure, from Alexey
Khoroshilov.
9) FIB trie must use call_rcu() not call_rcu_bh(), because this code
is not universally invoked from software interrupts. From Eric
Dumazet.
10) PPTP looks up ipv4 routes with the wrong network namespace, fix
from Gao Feng."

One condition before codel_Newton_step() was not good if
we never left the dropping state for a flow. As a result
rec_inv_sqrt was 0, instead of the ~0 initial value.
codel control law was then set to a very aggressive mode, dropping
many packets before reaching 'target' and recovering from this problem.
To keep codel_vars_init() as efficient as possible, refine
the condition to make sure rec_inv_sqrt initial value is correct
Many thanks to Anton Mich for discovering the issue and suggesting
a fix.

The EETI touchscreen asserts its IRQ line as soon as it has data in its
internal buffers. The line is automatically deasserted once all data has
been read via I2C. Hence, the driver has to monitor the GPIO line and
cannot simply rely on the interrupt handler reception.
In the current implementation of the driver, irq_to_gpio() is used to
determine the GPIO number from the i2c_client's IRQ value.
As irq_to_gpio() is not available on all platforms, this patch changes
this and makes the driver ignore the passed in IRQ. Instead, a GPIO is
added to the platform_data struct and gpio_to_irq is used to derive the
IRQ from that GPIO. If this fails, bail out. The driver is only able to
work in environments where the touchscreen GPIO can be mapped to an
IRQ.
Without this patch, building raumfeld_defconfig results in:
drivers/input/touchscreen/eeti_ts.c: In function 'eeti_ts_irq_active':

in linux-3.2, and this driver has been broken since.
There is actually no in-tree user of this driver that adds

While investigating on network performance problems, I found this little
gem :
$ nm -v vmlinux | grep -1 dst_default_metrics
ffffffff82736540 b busy.46605
ffffffff82736560 B dst_default_metrics
ffffffff82736598 b dst_busy_list
Apparently, declaring a const array without initializer put it in
(writeable) bss section, in middle of possibly often dirtied cache
lines.
Since we really want dst_default_metrics be const to avoid any possible
false sharing and catch any buggy writes, I force a null initializer.

Revert commit 45226e9 (NMI watchdog: fix for lockup detector breakage
on resume) which breaks resume from system suspend on my SH7372
Mackerel board (by causing a NULL pointer dereference to happen) and
is generally wrong, because it abuses the CPU hotplug functionality
in a shamelessly blatant way.
The original issue should be addressed through appropriate syscore
resume callback instead.

The first idea of the CAN FD implementation started with a new struct
canfd_frame to be used for both CAN FD frames and legacy CAN frames.
The now mainlined implementation supports both CAN frame types simultaneously
and distinguishes them only by their required sizes: CAN_MTU and CANFD_MTU.
Only the struct canfd_frame contains a flags element which is needed for the
additional CAN FD information. As CAN FD implicitly means that the 'Extened
Data Length' mode is enabled the formerly defined CANFD_EDL bit became
redundant and also confusing as an unset bit would be an error and would
always need to be tested.
This patch removes the obsolete CANFD_EDL bit and clarifies the documentation
for the use of struct canfd_frame and the CAN FD relevant flags.

Finally we can kill the 'sync_supers' kernel thread along with the
'->write_super()' superblock operation because all the users are gone.
Now every file-system is supposed to self-manage own superblock and
its dirty state.
The nice thing about killing this thread is that it improves power management.
Indeed, 'sync_supers' is a source of monotonic system wake-ups - it woke up
every 5 seconds no matter what - even if there were no dirty superblocks and
even if there were no file-systems using this service (e.g., btrfs and
journalled ext4 do not need it). So it was wasting power most of the time. And
because the thread was in the core of the kernel, all systems had to have it.
So I am quite happy to make it go away.
Interestingly, this thread is a left-over from the pdflush kernel thread which
was a self-forking kernel thread responsible for all the write-back in old
Linux kernels. It was turned into per-block device BDI threads, and
'sync_supers' was a left-over. Thus, R.I.P, pdflush as well.

Currently the only way for wireless drivers to tell whether or not OFDM
is allowed on the current channel is to check the regulatory
information. However, this requires hodling cfg80211_mutex, which is not
visible to the drivers.
Other regulatory restrictions are provided as flags in the channel
definition, so let's do similarly with OFDM. This patch adds a new flag,
IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_OFDM, to tell drivers that OFDM on a channel is not
allowed. This flag is set on any channels for which regulatory indicates
that OFDM is prohibited.

Cache the device gso_max_segs in sock::sk_gso_max_segs and use it to
limit the size of TSO skbs. This avoids the need to fall back to
software GSO for local TCP senders.

A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little
as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps). Given that we have a
sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough,
it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection
to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once. This
results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments.
In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of
DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than
a full ring. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger
the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried
after the TX reset). This particularly affects sfc, for which the
issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.
Therefore:
1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific
limit.
2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then
mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.

Pull ARM DMA engine updates from Russell King:
"This looks scary at first glance, but what it is is:
- a rework of the sa11x0 DMA engine driver merged during the previous
cycle, to extract a common set of helper functions for DMA engine
implementations.
- conversion of amba-pl08x.c to use these helper functions.
- addition of OMAP DMA engine driver (using these helper functions),
and conversion of some of the OMAP DMA users to use DMA engine.
Nothing in the helper functions is ARM specific, so I hope that other
implementations can consolidate some of their code by making use of
these helpers.
This has been sitting in linux-next most of the merge cycle, and has
been tested by several OMAP folk. I've tested it on sa11x0 platforms,
and given it my best shot on my broken platforms which have the
amba-pl08x controller.
The last point is the addition to feature-removal-schedule.txt, which
will have a merge conflict. Between myself and TI, we're planning to
remove the old TI DMA implementation next year."
