2fbd3da387 pkt_sched: Revert tasklet_hrtimer changes.
These are full of unresolved problems, mainly that conversions don't
work 1-1 from hrtimers to tasklet_hrtimers because unlike hrtimers
tasklets can't be killed from softirq context.

And when a qdisc gets reset, that's exactly what we need to do here.

We'll work this out in the net-next-2.6 tree and if warranted we'll
backport that work to -stable.

This reverts the following 3 changesets:

("pkt_sched: Fix bogon in tasklet_hrtimer changes.")

38acce2d79
("pkt_sched: Convert CBQ to tasklet_hrtimer.")

86393e52c3 netns: embed ip6_dst_ops directly
struct net::ipv6.ip6_dst_ops is separatedly dynamically allocated,
but there is no fundamental reason for it. Embed it directly into
struct netns_ipv6.

For that:
* move struct dst_ops into separate header to fix circular dependencies
	I honestly tried not to, it's pretty impossible to do other way
* drop dynamical allocation, allocate together with netns

For a change, remove struct dst_ops::dst_net, it's deducible
by using container_of() given dst_ops pointer.

6fa12c8503 Revert Backoff [v3]: Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.
RFC 1122 specifies two threshold values R1 and R2 for connection timeouts,
which may represent a number of allowed retransmissions or a timeout value.
Currently linux uses sysctl_tcp_retries{1,2} to specify the thresholds
in number of allowed retransmissions.

For any desired threshold R2 (by means of time) one can specify tcp_retries2
(by means of number of retransmissions) such that TCP will not time out
earlier than R2. This is the case, because the RTO schedule follows a fixed
pattern, namely exponential backoff.

However, the RTO behaviour is not predictable any more if RTO backoffs can be
reverted, as it is the case in the draft
"Make TCP more Robust to Long Connectivity Disruptions"
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-tcp-lcd).

In the worst case TCP would time out a connection after 3.2 seconds, if the
initial RTO equaled MIN_RTO and each backoff has been reverted.

This patch introduces a function retransmits_timed_out(N),
which calculates the timeout of a TCP connection, assuming an initial
RTO of MIN_RTO and N unsuccessful, exponentially backed-off retransmissions.

Whenever timeout decisions are made by comparing the retransmission counter
to some value N, this function can be used, instead.

The meaning of tcp_retries2 will be changed, as many more RTO retransmissions
can occur than the value indicates. However, it yields a timeout which is
similar to the one of an unpatched, exponentially backing off TCP in the same
scenario. As no application could rely on an RTO greater than MIN_RTO, there
should be no risk of a regression.

f1ecd5d9e7 Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable
Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to
TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has
not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure
somewhere along the path.
With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the
patched TCP will operate as standard TCP.

This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable
message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives.
Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the
remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission
is sent out immediately.
Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if
there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already.

Changes from v2:
1) Renaming of skb in tcp_v4_err() moved to another patch.
2) Reintroduced tcp_bound_rto() and __tcp_set_rto().
3) Fixed code comments.

0f6f290259 dcbnl: Add support for setapp/getapp commands to dcbnl
This patch adds dcbnl command definitions to support setapp/getapp
functionality from the IEEE 802.1Qaz Data Center Bridging Capability
Exchange protocol (DCBX) specification. Section 3.3 defines the
application protocol and its 802.1p user priority in DCBX, which is
implemented here as a pair of setapp/getapp commands in the kernel
dcbnl for setting and retrieving the user priority for an given
application protocol. The protocol is identified by the combination of
an id and an idtype. Currently, when idtype is 0, the corresponding
id gives the ether type of this protocol, e.g., for FCoE, it will be
0x8906; when idtype is 1, then the corresponding id gives the TCP or
UDP port number.

For more information regarding DCBX spec., please refer to the following:

cb45439977 net: Add ndo_fcoe_enable/ndo_fcoe_disable to net_device_ops
Add ndo_fcoe_enable/_disable to net_device_ops so the corresponding
HW can initialize itself for FCoE traffic or clean up after FCoE traffic is
done. This is expected to be called by the kernel FCoE stack upon receiving
a request for creating an FCoE instance on the corresponding netdev interface.
When implemented by the actual HW, the HW driver check the op code to perform
corresponding initialization or clean up for FCoE. The initialization normally
includes allocating extra queues for FCoE, setting corresponding HW registers
for FCoE, indicating FCoE offload features via netdev, etc. The clean-up would
include releasing the resources allocated for FCoE.

9e726b1742 Bluetooth: Fix rejected connection not disconnecting ACL link
When using DEFER_SETUP on a RFCOMM socket, a SABM frame triggers
authorization which when rejected send a DM response. This is fine
according to the RFCOMM spec:

    the responding implementation may replace the "proper" response
    on the Multiplexer Control channel with a DM frame, sent on the
    referenced DLCI to indicate that the DLCI is not open, and that
    the responder would not grant a request to open it later either.

But some stacks doesn't seems to cope with this leaving DLCI 0 open after
receiving DM frame.

To fix it properly a timer was introduced to rfcomm_session which is used
to set a timeout when the last active DLC of a session is unlinked, this
will give the remote stack some time to reply with a proper DISC frame on
DLCI 0 avoiding both sides sending DISC to each other on stacks that
follow the specification and taking care of those who don't by taking
down DLCI 0.

9eba32b86d Bluetooth: Add extra device reference counting for connections
The device model itself has no real usable reference counting at the
moment and this causes problems if parents are deleted before their
children. The device model itself handles the memory details of this
correctly, but the uevent order is not consistent. This causes various
problems for systems like HAL or even X.

So until device_put() does a proper cleanup, the device for Bluetooth
connection will be protected with an extra reference counting to ensure
the correct order of uevents when connections are terminated.

This is not an automatic feature. Higher Bluetooth layers like HIDP or
BNEP should grab this new reference to ensure that their uevents are
send before the ones from the parent device.

it's not trivial to put it back the way it was, since

Now do it in a completely new way: queue the check
off to a work struct, where we can freely lock. But
that has some more complications, like needing to
wait for it to be done before the wiphy/rdev can be
destroyed, so some code is required to handle that.

non-atomically.

23428e6b46 mdio: mdio_if_info::mmds should not be __bitwise
I misunderstood the meaning of __bitwise.  In practice it makes sparse
warn about every use of mmds which is certainly not what we want.

c1a8f1f1c8 net: restore gnet_stats_basic to previous definition
In 5e140dfc1f "net: reorder struct Qdisc
for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic
changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to
userland via netlink.

Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason.

Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and
teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land,
using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic)

Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

bb2af4f54f net: Add NETIF_F_FCOE_MTU to indicate support for a different MTU for FCoE
Add NETIF_F_FCOE_MTU to indicate that the NIC can support a secondary MTU for
converged traffic of LAN and Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). The MTU for
FCoE is 2158 = 14 (FCoE header) + 24 (FC header) + 2112 (FC max payload) +
4 (FC CRC) + 4 (FCoE trailer).

16cb9d42b6 cfg80211: allow driver to override PS default
Sometimes drivers might have a good reason to override
the PS default, like iwlwifi right now where it affects
RX performance significantly at this point. This will
allow them to override the default, if desired, in a
way that users can still change it according to their
trade-off choices, not the driver's, like would happen
if the driver just disabled PS completely then.
