309af40b5f e1000e: restore flow control settings properly
After a cable unplug the forced flow control settings were lost
accidentally and the flow control settings fell back to the default
EEPROM determined values. This breaks for people who want to
run without fc enabled - after a cable reset the driver would
refuse to run with fc disabled.

e2f036da2f [PATCH] mac80211: Defer setting of RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED.
The decryption handlers will skip the frame if the RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED

0654ff055c [PATCH] ieee80211_if_set_type: make check for master dev more explicit
Problem description by Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>:

"This sequence of events causes loss of connectivity:

<plug in>
<associate as normal in managed mode>
ifconfig eth7 down
iwconfig eth7 mode monitor
ifconfig eth7 up
ifconfig eth7 down
iwconfig eth7 mode managed
<associate as normal>

At this point you are associated but TX does not work. This is because
the eth7 hard_start_xmit is still ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit."

The problem is caused by ieee80211_if_set_type checking for a non-zero
hard_start_xmit pointer value in order to avoid changing that value for
master devices.  The fix is to make that check more explicitly linked to
master devices rather than simply checking if the value has been
previously set.

d8b0fb51ef [PATCH] libertas link error due to gcc `smartness'
Some versions of gcc replace strstr() calls with a single-character `needle'
parameter by strchr() behind our back. This causes a link error if strchr() is
defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k):

| drivers/built-in.o: In function `libertas_parse_chan':
| linux/drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c:209: undefined reference to `strchr'
| drivers/built-in.o: In function `libertas_parse_ssid':
| linux/drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c:260: undefined reference to `strchr'

Avoid this by explicitly calling strchr() instead.

Also include <linux/string.h>, because this file calls lots of str*() routines.

81873e9ccd [PATCH] rt2x00: Fix rfkill handling
As reported by Modestas Vainius, enabling rkfill in 1 driver and
disabling it in a second could cause a NULL pointer exception when
the rfkill-disabled driver still sets the CONFIG_SUPPORT_HW_BUTTON flag.

Furthermore, rfkill expects the timeout as a value in milliseconds
instead of jiffies. Also increase the timeout to a second,
since this 250ms would be overkill.

Also the flag DEVICE_ENABLED_RADIO_HW is causing problems
for devices which do not support the hardware button
while rfkill is enabled in the driver.

To remidy this we should inverse the flag and its meaning,
rename the flag to DEVICE_DISABLED_RADIO_HW this means that
by default the radio is enabled by the hardware button (if present)
and can only be disabled explicitely.

ipw2200 makes extensive use of background scanning when unassociated or

This needlessly wakes up processes listening for wireless events many

non-user-requested scans and send them up to userspace every 4 seconds.
Scan completed events resulting from an SIOCSIWSCAN call are pushed up

050f009e16 [IPSEC]: Lock state when copying non-atomic fields to user-space
This patch adds locking so that when we're copying non-atomic fields such as
life-time or coaddr to user-space we don't get a partial result.

For af_key I've changed every instance of pfkey_xfrm_state2msg apart from
expiration notification to include the keys and life-times.  This is in-line
with XFRM behaviour.

The actual cases affected are:

* pfkey_getspi: No change as we don't have any keys to copy.
* key_notify_sa:
	+ ADD/UPD: This wouldn't work otherwise.
	+ DEL: It can't hurt.

68325d3b12 [XFRM] user: Move attribute copying code into copy_to_user_state_extra
Here's a good example of code duplication leading to code rot.  The
notification patch did its own netlink message creation for xfrm states.
It duplicated code that was already in dump_one_state.  Guess what, the
next time (and the time after) when someone updated dump_one_state the
notification path got zilch.

This patch moves that code from dump_one_state to copy_to_user_state_extra
and uses it in xfrm_notify_sa too.  Unfortunately whoever updates this
still needs to update xfrm_sa_len since the notification path wants to
know the exact size for allocation.

At least I've added a comment saying so and if someone still forgest, we'll
have a WARN_ON telling us so.

I also changed the security size calculation to use xfrm_user_sec_ctx since
that's what we actually put into the skb.  However it makes no practical
difference since it has the same size as xfrm_sec_ctx.

658b219e93 [IPSEC]: Move common code into xfrm_alloc_spi
This patch moves some common code that conceptually belongs to the xfrm core
from af_key/xfrm_user into xfrm_alloc_spi.

In particular, the spin lock on the state is now taken inside xfrm_alloc_spi.
Previously it also protected the construction of the response PF_KEY/XFRM
messages to user-space.  This is inconsistent as other identical constructions
are not protected by the state lock.  This is bad because they in fact should
be protected but only in certain spots (so as not to hold the lock for too
long which may cause packet drops).

The SPI byte order conversion has also been moved.

Current the x->mode->output functions store the IPv6 nh pointer in the
skb network header.  This is inconvenient because the network header then
has to be fixed up before the packet can leave the IPsec stack.  The mac
header field is unused on output so we can use that to store this instead.

This patch does that and removes the network header fix-up in xfrm_output.

It also uses ipv6_hdr where appropriate in the x->type->output functions.

There is also a minor clean-up in esp4 to make it use the same code as
esp6 to help any subsequent effort to merge the two.

Lastly it kills two redundant skb_set_* statements in BEET that were
simply copied over from transport mode.

1ecafede83 [IPSEC]: Remove bogus ref count in xfrm_secpath_reject
Constructs of the form

	xfrm_state_hold(x);
	foo(x);
	xfrm_state_put(x);

tend to be broken because foo is either synchronous where this is totally
unnecessary or if foo is asynchronous then the reference count is in the
wrong spot.

In the case of xfrm_secpath_reject, the function is synchronous and therefore
we should just kill the reference count.

32f0c4cbe4 [NETNS]: Don't memset() netns to zero manually
The newly created net namespace is set to 0 with memset()
in setup_net(). The setup_net() is also called for the
init_net_ns(), which is zeroed naturally as a global var.

So remove this memset and allocate new nets with the
kmem_cache_zalloc().

0a8891a0a4 [IPv6]: use container_of() macro in fib6_clean_node()
In ip6_fib.c, fib6_clean_node() casts a fib6_walker_t pointer to
a fib6_cleaner_t pointer assuming a struct fib6_walker_t (field 'w')
is the first field in struct fib6_walker_t.

To prevent any future problems that may occur if one day a field
is inadvertently inserted before the 'w' field in struct fib6_cleaner_t,
(and to improve readability), this patch uses the container_of() macro.

4665079cbb [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=n
With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section,
thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before.
Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace
creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns
stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot.

Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls
are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be
merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to
use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes"
for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS
is not set to save more space in memory.

The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section,
as noticed by David, since the init section will have
references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost
checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace
never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I
introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already
done with the __init_refok.
