xchg() is used to set NCSI channel's state in order for consistent
access to the state. xchg()'s return value should be used. Otherwise,
one build warning will be raised (with -Wunused-value) as below message
indicates. It is reported by ia64-linux-gcc (GCC) 4.9.0.
net/ncsi/ncsi-manage.c: In function 'ncsi_channel_monitor':

This removes the atomic access to NCSI channel's state avoid the above
build warning. We have to hold the channel's lock when its state is readed
or updated. No functional changes introduced.

This is a respin of a patch to fix a relatively easily reproducible kernel
panic related to the all_adj_list handling for netdevs in recent kernels.
The following sequence of commands will reproduce the issue:
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200
ip link add name testbr type bridge
ip link set eth0.100 master testbr
ip link set eth0.200 master testbr
ip link add link testbr mac0 type macvlan
ip link delete dev testbr
This creates an upper/lower tree of (excuse the poor ASCII art):
/---eth0.100-eth0
mac0-testbr-
\---eth0.200-eth0
When testbr is deleted, the all_adj_lists are walked, and eth0 is deleted twice from
the mac0 list. Unfortunately, during setup in __netdev_upper_dev_link, only one
reference to eth0 is added, so this results in a panic.
This change adds reference count propagation so things are handled properly.
Matthias Schiffer reported a similar crash in batman-adv:
https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/680

which this patch also seems to resolve.

skb_vlan_pop/push were too generic, trying to support the cases where
skb->data is at mac header, and cases where skb->data is arbitrarily
elsewhere.
Supporting an arbitrary skb->data was complex and bogus:
- It failed to unwind skb->data to its original location post actual
pop/push.
(Also, semantic is not well defined for unwinding: If data was into
the eth header, need to use same offset from start; But if data was
at network header or beyond, need to adjust the original offset
according to the push/pull)
- It mangled the rcsum post actual push/pop, without taking into account
that the eth bytes might already have been pulled out of the csum.
Most callers (ovs, bpf) already had their skb->data at mac_header upon
invoking skb_vlan_pop/push.
Last caller that failed to do so (act_vlan) has been recently fixed.
Therefore, to simplify things, no longer support arbitrary skb->data
inputs for skb_vlan_pop/push().
skb->data is expected to be exactly at mac_header; WARN otherwise.

functions
Generic skb_vlan_push/skb_vlan_pop functions don't properly handle the
case where the input skb data pointer does not point at the mac header:
- They're doing push/pop, but fail to properly unwind data back to its
original location.
For example, in the skb_vlan_push case, any subsequent
'skb_push(skb, skb->mac_len)' calls make the skb->data point 4 bytes
BEFORE start of frame, leading to bogus frames that may be transmitted.
- They update rcsum per the added/removed 4 bytes tag.
Alas if data is originally after the vlan/eth headers, then these
bytes were already pulled out of the csum.
OTOH calling skb_vlan_push/skb_vlan_pop with skb->data at mac_header
present no issues.
act_vlan is the only caller to skb_vlan_*() that has skb->data pointing
at network header (upon ingress).
Other calles (ovs, bpf) already adjust skb->data at mac_header.
This patch fixes act_vlan to point to the mac_header prior calling
skb_vlan_*() functions, as other callers do.

since pipe_lock is the outermost now, we don't need to drop/regain
socket locks around the call of splice_to_pipe() from skb_splice_bits(),
which kills the need to have a socket-specific callback; we can just
call splice_to_pipe() and be done with that.

first lock at 261: mutex_lock(& ac->mutex); [ceph_build_auth]
ceph_auth_build_hello() is never called, because the protocol is always

rxrpc: More fixes and adjustments
This set of patches contains some more fixes and adjustments:
(1) Actually display the retransmission indication previously added to the
tx_data trace.
(2) Switch to Congestion Avoidance mode properly at cwnd==ssthresh rather
than relying on detection during an overshoot and correction.
(3) Reduce ssthresh to the peer's declared receive window.
(4) The offset field in rxrpc_skb_priv can be dispensed with and the error
field is no longer used. Get rid of them.
(5) Keep the call timeouts as ktimes rather than jiffies to make it easier
to deal with RTT-based timeout values in future. Rounding to jiffies
is still necessary when the system timer is set.
(6) Fix the call timer handling to avoid retriggering of expired timeout
actions.

this code with an empty IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST block, but if we do,
then ndo_set_vf_vlan gets called with uninitialized arguments.
This adds an explicit check for an empty list, making it obvious

The commit 879c7220e828 ("net: pktgen: Observe needed_headroom
of the device") increased the 'pkt_overhead' field value by
LL_RESERVED_SPACE.
As a side effect the generated packet size, computed as:
/* Eth + IPh + UDPh + mpls */
datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 - 20 - 8 -
pkt_dev->pkt_overhead;
is decreased by the same value.
The above changed slightly the behavior of existing pktgen users,
and made the procfs interface somewhat inconsistent.
Fix it by restoring the previous pkt_overhead value and using
LL_RESERVED_SPACE as extralen in skb allocation.
Also, change pktgen_alloc_skb() to only partially reserve
the headroom to allow the caller to prefetch from ll header
start.

This is an effective no-op in terms of user observable behaviour.
By preventing the overwrite of non-null extra1/extra2 fields
in addrconf_sysctl() we can enable the use of proc_dointvec_minmax().
This allows us to eliminate the constant min/max (1..255) trampoline
function that is addrconf_sysctl_hop_limit().
This is nice because it simplifies the code, and allows future
sysctls with constant min/max limits to also not require trampolines.
We still can't eliminate the trampoline for mtu because it isn't
actually a constant (it depends on other tunables of the device)
and thus requires at-write-time logic to enforce range.

The capability check should not be audited since it is only being used

violation of security policy but, when an LSM is enabled, a denial audit
message was being generated.
The denial audit message caused confusion for some application authors
because root-running Go applications always triggered the denial. To
prevent this confusion, the capability check in net_ctl_permissions() is
switched to the noaudit variant.

The call timer's concept of a call timeout (of which there are three) that
is inactive is that it is the timeout has the same expiration time as the
call expiration timeout (the expiration timer is never inactive). However,
I'm not resetting the timeouts when they expire, leading to repeated
processing of expired timeouts when other timeout events occur.
Fix this by:
(1) Move the timer expiry detection into rxrpc_set_timer() inside the
locked section. This means that if a timeout is set that will expire
immediately, we deal with it immediately.
(2) If a timeout is at or before now then it has expired. When an expiry
is detected, an event is raised, the timeout is automatically
inactivated and the event processor is queued.
(3) If a timeout is at or after the expiry timeout then it is inactive.
Inactive timeouts do not contribute to the timer setting.
(4) The call timer callback can now just call rxrpc_set_timer() to handle
things.
(5) The call processor work function now checks the event flags rather
than checking the timeouts directly.

The TXQ intermediate queues can cause packet reordering when more than
one flow is active to a single station. Since some of the wifi-specific
packet handling (notably sequence number and encryption handling) is
sensitive to re-ordering, things break if they are applied before the
TXQ.
This splits up the TX handlers and fast_xmit logic into two parts: An
early part and a late part. The former is applied before TXQ enqueue,
and the latter after dequeue. The non-TXQ path just applies both parts
at once.
Because fragments shouldn't be split up or reordered, the fragmentation
handler is run after dequeue. Any fragments are then kept in the TXQ and
on subsequent dequeues they take precedence over dequeueing from the FQ
structure.
This approach avoids having to scatter special cases all over the place
for when TXQ is enabled, at the cost of making the fast_xmit and TX
handler code slightly more complex.

When sctp dumps all the ep->assocs, it needs to lock_sock first,
but now it locks sock in rcu_read_lock, and lock_sock may sleep,
which would break rcu_read_lock.
This patch is to get and hold one sock when traversing the list.
After that and get out of rcu_read_lock, lock and dump it. Then
it will traverse the list again to get the next one until all
sctp socks are dumped.
For sctp_diag_dump_one, it fixes this issue by holding asoc and
