6b175b26c1 [NETNS]: Add netns parameter to inet_(dev_)add_type.
The patch extends the inet_addr_type and inet_dev_addr_type with the
network namespace pointer. That allows to access the different tables
relatively to the network namespace.

The modification of the signature function is reported in all the
callers of the inet_addr_type using the pointer to the well known
init_net.

d8fae9c2f2 qeth: avoid duplicate deletion of multicast addresses
if qeth_set_multicast_list() is performed on 2 CPUs in parallel,
card->ip_list may end corrupted.
Solution: In function __qeth_delete_all_mc()
          remove card->ip_list entry before invoking
          qeth_deregister_addr_entry(). Thus a 2nd invocation of
          qeth_set_multicast_list() cannot try to remove the
          same entry twice.

bc4b2b497a qeth: HiperSockets layer-3 interface drop non IPv4 or non IPv6 packets
HiperSockets infrastructure (layer-3 mode) supports only IPv4 or
IPv6 packets. Sending other packet types disturbs TCP/IP on z/VM,
which issues messages about invalid packets.
Qeth send routine will detect packet type on sending over a
HiperSockets interface (in layer-3 mode) and drop non IP packets.
The error and drop count of the interface is incremented.

54d0f56e63 qeth: Drop ARP packages on HiperSockets interface with NOARP attribute.
A network interface can get ARP packets even when the interface has
NOARP specified. In a HiperSockets environment this disturbs receiving
systems when packets are sent on the multicast queue. (E.g. TCP/IP on
z/VM issues messages reporting invalid data on the HiperSockets
interface.)
Qeth will no longer send ARP packets on HiperSockets interface when
interface has the NOARP attribute.

6d4f3d182b qeth: crash during reboot after failing online setting
Online setting of a qeth device may fail for instance because of:
- out-of-memory condition when allocating qdio queues
- IDX ACTIVATE problem
- ...
Such a device is still returned in a driver_for_each_device loop
processed in qeth_reboot_event(), which calls
qeth_clear_qdio_buffers(). Make sure qeth_clear_output_buffer() is
called only, if the qdio queues have been successfully allocated
during initialization of a qeth device.

d0a34f98d1 qeth: ungrouping a device must not be interruptible
Problem:
A recovery thread must not be active when device is removed.
In qeth_remove_device() an interruptible wait operation is used
to wait until a qeth recovery thread is finished. If a user really
interrupts the ungroup operation of a qeth device while a recovery
is running, cio and qeth are out of sync (device already removed
from cio, but kept in qeth). A following module unload of qeth
results in a kernel OOPS here.

Solution:
Do not allow interruption of ungroup operation to guarantee
finishing of a potentially running qeth recovery thread.

[PATCH 6/9] s390: qeth driver fixes [3/6]

From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com>
       	fixed kernel panic caused by qeth driver:
        Using a bonding device qeth driver will realloc
        headroom for every skb coming from the bond device.
        Once this happens qeth frees the original skb and
        set the skb pointer to the new realloced skb.
        Under heavy transmit workload (e.g.UDP streams) through bond
        network device the qdio output queue might get full.
        In this case we return with EBUSY from qeth_send_packet.
        Returning to qeth_hard_start_xmit routine
        the skb address on the stack still points to the old address,
        which has been freed before.
        Returning from qeth_hard_start_xmit with EBUSY results in
        requeuing the skb. In this case it corrupts the qdisc queue
        and results in kernel panic.

From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com>
	- Drop incoming packets with vlan_tag set
          if card->vlangrp is not set.
        - use always vlan_hwaccel_rx to pass
	  vlan frames to the stack.
        - fix recovery problem. Device was recovered
	  properly but still not working.
	  netif_carrier_on call right before
          recovery start fixes it.
