43f2f10444 [PATCH] sky2: bad memory reference on dual port cards
Sky2 driver will oops referencing bad memory if used on
a dual port card.  The problem is accessing past end of
MIB counter space.

Applies for both 2.6.17 and 2.6.16 (with fuzz)

94843566d7 [PATCH] mv643xx_eth: Fix tx_timeout to only conditionally wake tx queue
After resetting the hardware on a tx_timeout, call netif_wake_queue()
only if we have free tx descriptors.

Also, attempt to recover if mv643xx_eth_start_xmit() is called when
there are fewer free tx descriptors than expected.

The BUG_ON() call we are replacing was hit on a tx_timeout that
called netif_wake_queue(), indirectly via netif_device_attach(),
even though we did not have enough free tx descriptors.

bbadf503d7 [TG3]: Speed up SRAM access (2nd version)
Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO
instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature
done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3
power change.

IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test that
was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config.  cycles
are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more than 10
seconds to complete using config. cycles.

David Miller informed me that an earlier version of the patch caused
problems on sparc64 systems with built-in tg3 chips. This version
fixes the problem by excluding all SUN built-in tg3 chips from doing
MMIO SRAM access.

TG3_FLAG_EEPROM_WRITE_PROT is also set unconditionally when
TG3_FLG2_SUN_570X is set. This should be sane as all SUN chips are
built-in and do not require Vaux switching.

c1e14a6ea2 [IRDA]: smcinit merged into smsc-ircc driver
This patch integrates the smcinit code into the smsc-ircc driver.
Some laptops have their smsc-ircc chip not properly configured by the
BIOS and needs some preconfiguration. Currently, this can be done from
userspace with smcinit, a utility that comes with the irda-utils
package. It messes with ioports and PCI settings, from userspace.  Now
with this patch, if we happen to be on one of the known to be faulty
laptops, we preconfigure the chip from the driver.

Tx/Rx reset is back in vortex_up because the 3c900B-Combo stops working after

vortex_timer.

Also brought back some mii stuff to be sure that it does not break something

9b41046cd0 [PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[]
The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).

And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().

	start_kernel()
		-> parse_args()
			-> unknown_bootoption()
				-> obsolete_checksetup()

If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
handled.

If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
->setup_func().  If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
a parameter is seted to argv_init[].

Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.

This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

ff59c4563a [PATCH] bonding: support carrier state for master
Add support for the bonding master to specify its carrier state
based upon the state of the slaves.  For 802.3ad, the bond is up if
there is an active, parterned aggregator.  For other modes, the bond is
up if any slaves are up.  Updates driver version to 3.0.3.

	Based on a patch by jamal <hadi@cyberus.ca>.
