7967168cef [NET]: Merge TSO/UFO fields in sk_buff
Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not
going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP).  So
let's merge them.

They were used to tell the protocol of a packet.  This function has been
subsumed by the new gso_type field.  This is essentially a set of netdev
feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific
skb.  As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO
skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features
field.

I've made gso_type a conjunction.  The idea is that you have a base type
(e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features.
For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would
declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN.  All TSO packets with CWR set would
have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO
packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4.  This means that only the CWR packets need
to be emulated in software.

e82b0f2cc2 [netdrvr s/390] trim trailing whitespace
Previous fix patches added a bunch of trailing whitespace,
which git-applymbox complained loudly about.

e018ba1fce [PATCH] s390: Remove CVS generated information
- Remove all CVS generated information like e.g. revision IDs from
  drivers/s390 and include/asm-s390 (none present in arch/s390).

- Add newline at end of arch/s390/lib/Makefile to avoid diff message.

05e08a2a29 [PATCH] s390: qeth bug fixes
[patch 10/10] s390: qeth bug fixes.

From: Frank Pavlic <pavlic@de.ibm.com>

qeth network driver related changes:
 - due to OSA hardware changes in TCP Segmentation Offload
   support we are able now to pack TSO packets too.
   This fits perfectly in design of qeth buffer handling and
   sending data respectively.
 - remove skb_realloc_headroom from the sending path since
   hard_header_len value provides enough headroom now.
 - device recovery behaviour improvement
 - bug fixed in Enhanced Device Driver Packing functionality

d801145d91 [PATCH] s390: qeth bug fixes
[patch 7/10] s390: qeth bug fixes.

From: Frank Pavlic <pavlic@de.ibm.com>

qeth network driver changes:
 - Removed redundant code, use the same qeth_fill_buffer_frag
   for TSO path either
 - Using skb->frags solely is not correct since skb->data still
   points to the beginning of the whole data, even when it is
   a small portion we have to fill the qdio buffer with it.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
