70cf5035de [S390] Explicitly code allocpercpu calls in iucv
The iucv is the only user of the various functions that are used to bring
parts of cpus up and down. Its the only allocpercpu user that will do
I/O on per cpu objects (which is difficult to do with virtually mapped memory).
And its the only use of allocpercpu where a GFP_DMA allocation is done.

Remove the allocpercpu calls from iucv and code the allocation and freeing
manually. After this patch it is possible to remove a large part of
the allocpercpu API.

7799652557 [NETFILTER]: Fix NULL pointer dereference in nf_nat_move_storage()
Reported by Chuck Ebbert as:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=259501#c14

This routine is called each time hash should be replaced, nf_conn has
extension list which contains pointers to connection tracking users
(like nat, which is right now the only such user), so when replace takes
place it should copy own extensions. Loop above checks for own
extension, but tries to move higer-layer one, which can lead to above
oops.

dab6ba3688 [INET]: Fix potential kfree on vmalloc-ed area of request_sock_queue
The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it 
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in 
the reqsk_queue_destroy().

However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls 
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called 
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally. 

Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as 
it looks too big to be inline.

As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only,
so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL.

reqsk_queue_yank_listen_sk is also now only used in
net/core/request_sock.c so we should move it there too.

d90bf5a976 [NET]: rt_check_expire() can take a long time, add a cond_resched()
On commit 39c90ece75:

	[IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.

we converted rt_check_expire() from softirq to workqueue, allowing the
function to perform all work it was supposed to do.

When the IP route cache is big, rt_check_expire() can take a long time
to run.  (default settings : 20% of the hash table is scanned at each
invocation)

Adding cond_resched() helps giving cpu to higher priority tasks if
necessary.

Using a "if (need_resched())" test before calling "cond_resched();" is
necessary to avoid spending too much time doing the resched check.
(My tests gave a time reduction from 88 ms to 25 ms per
rt_check_expire() run on my i686 test machine)

e1cd8f78f8 [TCP] FRTO: Clear frto_highmark only after process_frto that uses it
I broke this in commit 3de96471bd:

	[TCP]: Wrap-safed reordering detection FRTO check

tcp_process_frto should always see a valid frto_highmark. An invalid
frto_highmark (zero) is very likely what ultimately caused a seqno
compare in tcp_frto_enter_loss to do the wrong leading to the LOST-bit
leak.

Having LOST-bits integry ensured like done after commit
23aeeec365:

	[TCP] FRTO: Plug potential LOST-bit leak

scenario.

c67625a1ec [NET]: Remove notifier block from chain when register_netdevice_notifier fails
Commit fcc5a03ac4:

	[NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to fail

makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the
NETDEV_REGISTER event, sent to the registering block.

The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is 
not removed from the list, but the error is returned to the 
caller. In case the caller is in module init function and 
handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but 
will be left in the list. Oops :(

I think that the notifier block should be removed from the
chain in case of error, regardless whether this error is 
handled by the caller or not. In the worst case (the error 
is _not_ handled) module will not receive the events any 
longer.

746aa32d28 [TCP] FRTO: Limit snd_cwnd if TCP was application limited
Otherwise TCP might violate packet ordering principles that FRTO
is based on. If conventional recovery path is chosen, this won't
be significant at all. In practice, any small enough value will
be sufficient to provide proper operation for FRTO, yet other
users of snd_cwnd might benefit from a "close enough" value.

FRTO's formula is now equal to what tcp_enter_cwr() uses.

FRTO used to check application limitedness a bit differently but
I changed that in commit 575ee7140d
and as a result checking for application limitedness became
completely non-existing.

5f1a485d59 [PKT_SCHED]: Check subqueue status before calling hard_start_xmit
The only qdiscs that check subqueue state before dequeue'ing are PRIO
and RR.  The other qdiscs, including the default pfifo_fast qdisc,
will allow traffic bound for subqueue 0 through to hard_start_xmit.
The check for netif_queue_stopped() is done above in pkt_sched.h, so
it is unnecessary for qdisc_restart().  However, if the underlying
driver is multiqueue capable, and only sets queue states on subqueues,
this will allow packets to enter the driver when it's currently unable
to process packets, resulting in expensive requeues and driver
entries.  This patch re-adds the check for the subqueue status before
calling hard_start_xmit, so we can try and avoid the driver entry when
the queues are stopped.

9abed245a6 Fix memory leak in discard case of sctp_sf_abort_violation()
In net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c::sctp_sf_abort_violation() we may leak
the storage allocated for 'abort' by returning from the function
without using or freeing it. This happens in case
"sctp_auth_recv_cid(SCTP_CID_ABORT, asoc)" is true and we jump to
the 'discard' label.
Spotted by the Coverity checker.

The simple fix is to simply move the creation of the "abort chunk"
to after the possible jump to the 'discard' label. This way we don't
even have to allocate the memory at all in the problem case.

830f903866 mac80211: allow driver to ask for a rate control algorithm
This allows a driver to ask for a specific rate control algorithm.
The rate control algorithm asked for must be registered and be
available as a module or built-in.

999acd9c33 mac80211: don't allow registering the same rate control twice
Previously, mac80211 would allow registering the same rate control
algorithm twice. This is a programming error in the registration
and should not happen; additionally the second version could never
be selected. Disallow this and warn about it.

2bf236d55e rfkill: Use subsys_initcall
We must use subsys_initcall, because we must initialize before a
driver calls rfkill_register().

ac71c691e6 mac80211: make simple rate control algorithm built-in
Too frequently people do not have module autoloading enabled
or fail to install the rate control module correctly, hence
their hardware probing fails due to no rate control algorithm
being available. This makes the 'simple' algorithm built into
the mac80211 module unless EMBEDDED is enabled in which case
it can be disabled (eg. if the wanted driver requires another
rate control algorithm.)

8a8f1c0437 rfkill: Register LED triggers before registering switch
Registering the switch triggers a LED event, so we must register
LED triggers before the switch.
This has a potential to fix a crash, depending on how the device
driver initializes the rfkill data structure.

94e10bfb8a softmac: fix wext MLME request reason code endianness
The MLME request reason code is host-endian and our passing
it to the low level functions is host-endian as well since
they do the swapping. I noticed that the reason code 768 was
sent (0x300) rather than 3 when wpa_supplicant terminates.
This removes the superfluous cpu_to_le16() call.

b226801676 [PKT_SCHED] CLS_U32: Use ffs() instead of C code on hash mask to get first set bit.
Computing the rank of the first set bit in the hash mask (for using later
in u32_hash_fold()) was done with plain C code. Using ffs() instead makes
the code more readable and improves performance (since ffs() is better
optimized in assembler).

Using the conditional operator on hash mask before applying ntohl() also
saves one ntohl() call if mask is 0.
