889b8f964f packet: Kill CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP.
Early on this was an experimental facility that few
people other than Alexey Kuznetsov played with.

Now it's a pretty fundamental thing and as people add
more features to AF_PACKET sockets this config options
creates ifdef spaghetti.

So kill it off.

6d955180b2 ipv4: allow warming up the ARP cache with request type gratuitous ARP
If the per device ARP_ACCEPT option is enable, currently we only allow
creating new ARP cache entries for response type gratuitous ARP.

Allowing gratuitous ARP to create new ARP entries (not only to update
existing ones) is useful when we want to avoid unnecessary delays for
the first packet of a stream.

This patch allows request type gratuitous ARP to create new ARP cache
entries as well. This is useful when we want to populate the ARP cache
entries for a large number of hosts on the same LAN.

ceafe1d2fe feature-removal-schedule: Add v4l1 drivers obsoleted by gspca sub drivers
This patch adds the ov511, quickcam_messenger, w9968cf, stv680 and ovcamchip
v4l1 drivers to the feature removal schedule as the devices they support
are now all also supported by v4l2 gspca sub drivers.

This patch also adds the v4l2 vc0301 driver for removal as it duplicates
functionality of the gspca_zc3xx driver, zc0301 only supports 2 USB-ID's
(because it only supports a limited set of sensors) wich are also
supported
by the gspca_zc3xx driver (which supports 53 USB-ID's in total).

Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced
to show stack information in /proc/{pid}/status.  But it cause large
performance regression.  Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps
command too and ps is one of most important component.  Because both to
take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation.

If many process run, the ps performance is,

Thus, this patch revert it. Fortunately /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/smaps
provide almost same information. we can use it.

Commit d899bf7b introduced two features:

 1) Add the annotattion of [thread stack: xxxx] mark to
    /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/maps.
 2) Add StackUsage field to /proc/{pid}/status.

I only revert (2), because I haven't seen (1) cause regression.

65324144b5 net: RFC3069, private VLAN proxy arp support
This is to be used together with switch technologies, like RFC3069,
that where the individual ports are not allowed to communicate with
each other, but they are allowed to talk to the upstream router.  As
described in RFC 3069, it is possible to allow these hosts to
communicate through the upstream router by proxy_arp'ing.

This patch basically allow proxy arp replies back to the same
interface (from which the ARP request/solicitation was received).

Tunable per device via proc "proxy_arp_pvlan":
  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/proxy_arp_pvlan

This switch technology is known by different vendor names:
 - In RFC 3069 it is called VLAN Aggregation.
 - Cisco and Allied Telesyn call it Private VLAN.
 - Hewlett-Packard call it Source-Port filtering or port-isolation.
 - Ericsson call it MAC-Forced Forwarding (RFC Draft).

dab4b911a5 KVM: x86: Extend KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS with selective updates
User space may not want to overwrite asynchronously changing VCPU event
states on write-back. So allow to skip nmi.pending and sipi_vector by
setting corresponding bits in the flags field of kvm_vcpu_events.

[avi: advertise the bits in KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS]

099c2f21d8 Driver core: driver_attribute parameters can often be const*
Many struct driver_attribute descriptors are purely read-only
structures, and there's no need to change them. Therefore make
the promise not to, which will let those descriptors be put in
a ro section.

26579ab70a Driver core: device_attribute parameters can often be const*
Most device_attributes are const, and are begging to be
put in a ro section. However, the create and remove
file interfaces were failing to propagate the const promise
which the only functions they call offer.

8e9b936226 Doc/stable rules: add new cherry-pick logic
- it is possible to submit patches for the stable queue without sending
  them directly stable@kernel.org. If the tag (Cc: stable@kernel.org) is
  available in the sign-off area than hpa's script will filter them into
  the stable mailbox once it hits Linus' tree.
- Patches which require others to be applied first can be also specified.
  This was discussued in http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/9/474
