net: systemport: RX path and suspend fixes
These two patches fix a race condition where we have our RX interrupts
enabled, but not NAPI for the RX path, and the second patch fixes an
issue for packets stuck in RX fifo during a suspend/resume cycle.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
bcm_sysport_resume() was missing an UniMAC reset which can lead to
various receive FIFO corruptions coming out of a suspend cycle. If the
RX FIFO is stuck, it will deliver corrupted/duplicate packets towards
the host CPU interface.
This could be reproduced on crowded network and when Wake-on-LAN is
enabled for this particular interface because the switch still forwards
packets towards the host CPU interface (SYSTEMPORT), and we had to leave
the UniMAC RX enable bit on to allow matching MagicPackets.
Once we re-enter the resume function, there is a small window during
which the UniMAC receive is still enabled, and we start queueing
packets, but the RDMA and RBUF engines are not ready, which leads to
having packets stuck in the UniMAC RX FIFO, ultimately delivered towards
the host CPU as corrupted.

There is currently a small window during which the SYSTEMPORT adapter
enables its RX interrupts without having enabled its NAPI handler, which
can result in packets to be discarded during interface bringup.
A similar but more serious window exists in bcm_sysport_resume() during
which we can have the RDMA engine not fully prepared to receive packets
and yet having RX interrupts enabled.
Fix this my moving the RX interrupt enable down to
bcm_sysport_netif_start() after napi_enable() for the RX path is called,
which fixes both call sites: bcm_sysport_open() and
bcm_sysport_resume().

The mv88e6171 can support two different tagging protocols, DSA and

EDSA tagging code is built. With a minimal configuration, we then end
up with a mismatch. The probe is successful, EDSA tagging is used, but
the switch is configured for DSA, resulting in mangled packets.

xen-netback: guest Rx queue drain and stall fixes
This series fixes two critical xen-netback bugs.
1. Netback may consume all of host memory by queuing an unlimited
number of skb on the internal guest Rx queue. This behaviour is
guest triggerable.
2. Carrier flapping under high traffic rates which reduces
performance.
The first patch is a prerequite. Removing support for frontends with
feature-rx-notify makes it easier to reason about the correctness of
netback since it no longer has to support this outdated and broken
mode.

If a frontend not receiving packets it is useful to detect this and
turn off the carrier so packets are dropped early instead of being
queued and drained when they expire.
A to-guest queue is stalled if it doesn't have enough free slots for a
an extended period of time (default 60 s).
If at least one queue is stalled, the carrier is turned off (in the
expectation that the other queues will soon stall as well). The
carrier is only turned on once all queues are ready.
When the frontend connects, all the queues start in the stalled state
and only become ready once the frontend queues enough Rx requests.

Netback needs to discard old to-guest skb's (guest Rx queue drain) and
it needs detect guest Rx stalls (to disable the carrier so packets are
discarded earlier), but the current implementation is very broken.
1. The check in hard_start_xmit of the slot availability did not
consider the number of packets that were already in the guest Rx
queue. This could allow the queue to grow without bound.
The guest stops consuming packets and the ring was allowed to fill
leaving S slot free. Netback queues a packet requiring more than S
slots (ensuring that the ring stays with S slots free). Netback
queue indefinately packets provided that then require S or fewer
slots.
2. The Rx stall detection is not triggered in this case since the
(host) Tx queue is not stopped.
3. If the Tx queue is stopped and a guest Rx interrupt occurs, netback
will consider this an Rx purge event which may result in it taking
the carrier down unnecessarily. It also considers a queue with
only 1 slot free as unstalled (even though the next packet might
not fit in this).
The internal guest Rx queue is limited by a byte length (to 512 Kib,
enough for half the ring). The (host) Tx queue is stopped and started
based on this limit. This sets an upper bound on the amount of memory
used by packets on the internal queue.
This allows the estimatation of the number of slots for an skb to be
removed (it wasn't a very good estimate anyway). Instead, the guest
Rx thread just waits for enough free slots for a maximum sized packet.
skbs queued on the internal queue have an 'expires' time (set to the
current time plus the drain timeout). The guest Rx thread will detect
when the skb at the head of the queue has expired and discard expired
skbs. This sets a clear upper bound on the length of time an skb can
be queued for. For a guest being destroyed the maximum time needed to
wait for all the packets it sent to be dropped is still the drain
timeout (10 s) since it will not be sending new packets.
Rx stall detection is reintroduced in a later commit.

When mac80211 wants to ensure that a frame is sent, it calls
the flush() callback. Until now, iwldvm implemented this by
waiting that all the frames are sent (ACKed or timeout).
In case of weak signal, this can take a significant amount
of time, delaying the next connection (in case of roaming).
Many users have reported that the flush would take too long
leading to the following error messages to be printed:

Instead of waiting for these packets, simply drop them. This
significantly improves the responsiveness of the network.
Note that all the queues are flushed, but the VO one. This
is not typically used by the applications and it likely
contains management frames that are useful for connection
or roaming.
This bug is tracked here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56581
But it is duplicated in distributions' trackers.
A simple search in Ubuntu's database led to these bugs:

Don't add the time event to the list. We added it several
times the same time event, which leads to an infinite loop
when walking the list.
Since we (currently) don't support more than one ROC for STA
vif at a time, enforce this and don't add the time event
to any list.
We were also missing the locking of the mutex which led to
a lockdep splat - fix that.

The tx power should be limited from many reasons.
currently, setting the tx power is available by the mvm only for
station interface. Adding the tx power condition to
bss_info_changed_ap_ibss make it available also for AP.

I changed the string but forgot to update the fix also to
MODULE_FIRMWARE().

The LTR is the handshake between the device and the root
complex about the latency allowed when the bus exits power
save. This configuration was missing and this led to high
latency in the link power up. The end user could experience
high latency in the network because of this.

Drivers that do not use the get_btc_status() callback may not define a
dummy routine. The caller needs to check before making the call.

In some cases the limit may be the same as reg->power_limit, but the
actual value that the hardware uses is not up to date. In that case, a
wrong value for current tx power is tracked internally.
Fix this by unconditionally updating it.

rtl92c_set_fw_rsvdpagepkt is used by rtl8192cu and its pci sibling rtl8192ce.
rtl_cmd_send_packet crashes when called inside rtl8192cu because it works on
memory allocated only by rtl8192ce.
Fix the crash by calling a dummy function when used in rtl8192cu.
Comparision with the realtek vendor driver makes me think, something is missing in
the dummy function.
Short test as WPA2 station show good results connected to an 802.11g basestation.
Traffic stops after few MBytes as WPA2 station connected to an 802.11n basestation.

In a previous patch the call to ieee80211_register_hw was moved from the
load firmware callback to the rtl_pci_probe only.
rt8192cu also uses this callback. Currently it doesnt create a wlan%d device.
Fill in the call to ieee80211_register_hw in rtl_usb_probe.
