3617aa485c net: pppoe - stop using proc internals
Alexey Dobriyan pointed that using PDE_NET outside the
proc code is plain bogus (thanks Alexey!). Fix it.

cbec6605cf pppol2tp: stop using proc internals
PDE_NET usage in driver code is a sign and, indeed, switching
to seq_open_net/seq_release_net saves code and fixes bogus things, like
user triggerabble BUG_ON(!net) after maybe_get_net, and NULLifying ->private.

5b9c3cdd55 ixgbe: fix slow load times on 82598 nics
Load times for NICs that use i2c to communicate with the phy were taking
~4.5 sec per port.  This fix first checks to see if the link is already
up before calling get_link_capabilities, since if it is we don't need
query the phy for link state.

cd1f55a5b4 gianfar: Revive VLAN support
commit 77ecaf2d5a ("gianfar: Fix VLAN
HW feature related frame/buffer size calculation") wrongly removed
priv->vlgrp assignment, and now priv->vlgrp is always NULL.

This patch fixes the issue, plus fixes following sparse warning
introduced by the same commit:
gianfar.c:1406:13: warning: context imbalance in 'gfar_vlan_rx_register' - wrong count at exit

gfar_vlan_rx_register() checks for "if (old_grp == grp)" and tries
to return w/o dropping the lock.

According to net/8021q/vlan.c VLAN core issues rx_register() callback:
1. In register_vlan_dev() only on a newly created group;
2. In unregister_vlan_dev() only if the group becomes empty.

Thus the check in the gianfar driver isn't needed.

116cb42855 vlan: Export symbols as non GPL symbols.
In previous kernels, any kernel module could get access to the
'real-device' and the VLAN-ID for a particular VLAN.  In more recent
kernels, the code was restructured such that this is hard to do
without accessing private .h files for any module that cannot use
GPL-only symbols.

Attached is a patch to once again allow non-GPL modules the ability to
access the real-device and VLAN id for VLANs.

e8b5fc514d bnx2x: tx_has_work should not wait for FW
The current tx_has_work waited until all packets sent by the driver
are marked as completed by the FW. This is too greedy and it causes
the bnx2x_poll to spin in vain. The driver should only check that all
packets FW already completed are freed - only in unload flow the
driver should make sure that transmit queue is empty

3632dee2f8 inotify: clean up inotify_read and fix locking problems
If userspace supplies an invalid pointer to a read() of an inotify
instance, the inotify device's event list mutex is unlocked twice.
This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure
unprotected, and we can trigger oopses by accessing the inotify
instance from different tasks concurrently.

The best fix (contributed largely by Linus) is a total rewrite
of the function in question:
