c26875e2e1 s2io: Remove unnecessary memset of netdev private data
The memory for the private data is allocated using kzalloc in
alloc_etherdev (or alloc_netdev_mq respectively) so there is no need to
set it to 0 again.

c1f19b51d1 net: support time stamping in phy devices.
This patch adds a new networking option to allow hardware time stamps
from PHY devices. When enabled, likely candidates among incoming and
outgoing network packets are offered to the PHY driver for possible
time stamping. When accepted by the PHY driver, incoming packets are
deferred for later delivery by the driver.

The patch also adds phylib driver methods for the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl
and callbacks for transmit and receive time stamping. Drivers may
optionally implement these functions.

15f0127d1d net: added a BPF to help drivers detect PTP packets.
Certain kinds of hardware time stamping units in both MACs and PHYs have
the limitation that they can only time stamp PTP packets. Drivers for such
hardware are left with the task of correctly matching skbs to time stamps.
This patch adds a BPF that drivers can use to classify PTP packets when
needed.

28b041139e net: preserve ifreq parameter when calling generic phy_mii_ioctl().
The phy_mii_ioctl() function unnecessarily throws away the original ifreq.
We need access to the ifreq in order to support PHYs that can perform
hardware time stamping.

Two maverick drivers filter the ioctl commands passed to phy_mii_ioctl().
This is unnecessary since phylib will check the command in any case.

4507a71507 net: add driver hook for tx time stamping.
This patch adds a hook for transmit time stamps. The transmit hook
allows a software fallback for transmit time stamps, for MACs
lacking time stamping hardware. Using the hook will still require
adding an inline function call to each MAC driver.

ad1afb0039 vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)
- Without the 8021q module loaded in the kernel, all 802.1p packets 
(VLAN 0 but QoS tagging) are silently discarded (as expected, as 
the protocol is not loaded).
 
- Without this patch in 8021q module, these packets are forwarded to 
the module, but they are discarded also if VLAN 0 is not configured,
which should not be the default behaviour, as VLAN 0 is not really
a VLANed packet but a 802.1p packet. Defining VLAN 0 makes it almost
impossible to communicate with mixed 802.1p and non 802.1p devices on
the same network due to arp table issues.

- Changed logic to skip vlan specific code in vlan_skb_recv if VLAN 
is 0 and we have not defined a VLAN with ID 0, but we accept the 
packet with the encapsulated proto and pass it later to netif_rx.

- In the vlan device event handler, added some logic to add VLAN 0 
to HW filter in devices that support it (this prevented any traffic
in VLAN 0 to reach the stack in e1000e with HW filter under 2.6.35,
and probably also with other HW filtered cards, so we fix it here).

- In the vlan unregister logic, prevent the elimination of VLAN 0 
in devices with HW filter.

- The default behaviour is to ignore the VLAN 0 tagging and accept
the packet as if it was not tagged, but we can still define a 
VLAN 0 if desired (so it is backwards compatible).

The test for buffer overflow ensures we have room for 6 more bytes.
sprintf, called with %s:%d, slave->dev->name, slave->queue_id may yield
far more than 6 bytes.

The correct test is res > (PAGE_SIZE - IFNAMSIZ - 6) .

0eff683f73 net/sched: potential data corruption
The reset_policy() does:
        memset(d->tcfd_defdata, 0, SIMP_MAX_DATA);
        strlcpy(d->tcfd_defdata, defdata, SIMP_MAX_DATA);

In the original code, the size of d->tcfd_defdata wasn't fixed and if
strlen(defdata) was less than 31, reset_policy() would cause memory
corruption.

Please Note:  The original alloc_defdata() assumes defdata is 32
characters and a NUL terminator while reset_policy() assumes defdata is
31 characters and a NUL.  This patch updates alloc_defdata() to match
reset_policy() (ie a shorter string).  I'm not very familiar with this
code so please review carefully.

f8320f0592 netxen: fix for kdump
When the crash kernel is loaded after crash, the device is in unknown state.
So reset the device contexts prior to its creation in case of kdump,
depending upon kernel parameter reset_devices.
