47fd23fe8e cxgb3: Keep LRO off if disabled when interface is down
I have a system with a Chelsio adapter (driven by cxgb3) whose ports are
part of a Linux bridge.  Recently I updated the kernel and discovered
that things stopped working because cxgb3 was doing LRO on packets that
were passed into the bridge code for forwarding.  (Incidentally, this
problem manifested itself in a strange way that made debugging a bit
interesting -- for some reason, the skb_warn_if_lro() check in bridge
didn't trigger and these LROed packets were forwarded out a forcedeth
interface, and caused the forcedeth transmit path to get stuck)

This is because cxgb3 has no way of keeping state for the LRO flag until
the interface is brought up, so if the bridging code disables LRO while
the interface is down, then cxgb3_up() will just reenable LRO, and on my
Debian system at least, the init scripts add interfaces to a bridge
before bringing the interfaces up.

Fix this by keeping track of each interface's LRO state in cxgb3 so that
when bridge disables LRO, it stays disabled in cxgb3_up() when the
interface is brought up.  I did this by changing the rx_csum_offload
flag into a pair of bit flags; the effect of this on the rx_eth() fast
path is miniscule enough that it should be fine (eg on x86, a cmpb
instruction becomes a testb instruction).

1b6725dea7 net: fix section mismatch warnings in dccp/ccids/lib/tfrc.c
Removed the __exit annotation of tfrc_lib_exit(), in order to suppress the following section mismatch messages:

WARNING: net/dccp/dccp.o(.text+0xd9): Section mismatch in reference from the function ccid_cleanup_builtins() to the function .exit.text:tfrc_lib_exit()
The function ccid_cleanup_builtins() references a function in an exit section.
Often the function tfrc_lib_exit() has valid usage outside the exit section
and the fix is to remove the __exit annotation of tfrc_lib_exit.

WARNING: net/dccp/dccp.o(.init.text+0x48): Section mismatch in reference from the function ccid_initialize_builtins() to the function .exit.text:tfrc_lib_exit()
The function __init ccid_initialize_builtins() references
a function __exit tfrc_lib_exit().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function
uses functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of
tfrc_lib_exit() so it may be used outside an exit section.

As well, escape the colon in the field's text description, as it is

4ca857958c b44: fix misalignment and wasted space in rx handling
Broadcom 4400 puts a header of configurable size (apparently needs
to be at least 28 bytes) in front of received packets. When handling
this, the previous code accidentally added the offset 30 *twice* for
the software and once for the hardware, thereby cancelling out the
IP alignment effect of the 30 byte padding and wasting an additional
30 bytes of memory per packet.

This patch fixes this problem and improves routing throughput by
about 30% on MIPS, where unaligned access is expensive.

f4b477c473 rbtree: add const qualifier to some functions
The 'rb_first()', 'rb_last()', 'rb_next()' and 'rb_prev()' calls
take a pointer to an RB node or RB root. They do not change the
pointed objects, so add a 'const' qualifier in order to make life
of the users of these functions easier.

Indeed, if I have my own constant pointer &const struct my_type *p,
and I call 'rb_next(&p->rb)', I get a GCC warning:

warning: passing argument 1 of ‘rb_next’ discards qualifiers from pointer target type

cfce41a6d6 LIS3LV02D: separate the core from HP ACPI API
The sensor can be accessed via various buses.  In particular, SPI, I²C
and, on HP laptops, via a specific ACPI API (the only one currently
supported).  Separate this latest platform from the core of the sensor
driver to allow support for the other bus type.  The second, and more
direct goal is actually to be able to merge this part with the
hp-disk-leds driver, which has the same ACPI PNP number.

fcccf50254 filesystem freeze: implement generic freeze feature
The ioctls for the generic freeze feature are below.
o Freeze the filesystem
  int ioctl(int fd, int FIFREEZE, arg)
    fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
    FIFREEZE: request code for the freeze
    arg: Ignored
    Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1

o Unfreeze the filesystem
  int ioctl(int fd, int FITHAW, arg)
    fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
    FITHAW: request code for unfreeze
    arg: Ignored
    Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
    Error number: If the filesystem has already been unfrozen,
                  errno is set to EINVAL.

c4be0c1dc4 filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which
suspends write requests.  So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the
filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and
replication) while it is mounted.

In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g.  VxFS) has the freeze feature
and it would be used to get the consistent backup.

If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it
without a commercial filesystem.

So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature.
I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps.
1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl.
2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot
   with the storage device's feature.
3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl.
4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume
   or the snapshot.

This patch:

VFS:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they can return an error.
Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation
freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion.

ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed,
and unlockfs always returns 0.

reiserfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.
