3bcf8229a8 r6040: fix r6040_multicast_list
As reported in <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15355>, r6040_
multicast_list currently crashes. This is due a wrong maximum of multicast
entries. This patch fixes the following issues with multicast:

- number of maximum entries if off-by-one (4 instead of 3)

- the writing of the hash table index is not necessary and leads to invalid
values being written into the MCR1 register, so the MAC is simply put in a non
coherent state

- when we exceed the maximum number of mutlticast address, writing the
broadcast address should be done in registers MID_1{L,M,H} instead of
MID_O{L,M,H}, otherwise we would loose the adapter's MAC address

de0f60ea94 iwlwifi: avoid Tx queue memory allocation in interface down
We used to free all the Tx queues memory when interface is brought
down and reallocate them again in interface up. This requires
order-4 allocation for txq->cmd[]. In situations like s2ram, this
usually leads to allocation failure in the memory subsystem. The
patch fixed this problem by allocating the Tx queues memory only at
the first time. Later iwl_down/iwl_up only initialize but don't
free and reallocate them. The memory is freed at the device removal
time. BTW, we have already done this for the Rx queue.

This fixed bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15551

04f2dec1c3 iwlwifi: use consistent table for tx data collect
When collecting tx data for non-aggregation packets in rate scaling, if
the tx data matches "other table", it still uses current table to update
the stats and calculate average throughput in function rs_collect_tx_data().
This can mess up the rate scaling data structure and cause a kernel panic
in a BUG_ON statement in rs_rate_scale_perform().

To fix this bug, we pass table pointer instead of window pointer (pointed
to by table pointer) to function rs_collect_tx_data() so that the table
being used is consistent.

9e2e61fbf8 bonding: fix potential deadlock in bond_uninit()
bond_uninit() is invoked with rtnl_lock held, when it does destroy_workqueue()
which will potentially flush all works in this workqueue, if we hold rtnl_lock
again in the work function, it will deadlock.

So move destroy_workqueue() to destructor where rtnl_lock is not held any more,
suggested by Eric.

48a6be6a0d iwlwifi: clear unattended interrupts in tasklet
Previously in interrupt handling tasklet, iwlwifi driver only clear/ack
those interrupts that are enabled by the driver through inta_mask.
If the hardware generates unattended interrupts, driver will not ack them,
defeating the interrupt coalescing feature. This results in high number
of interrupts per second and high CPU utilization.

This patch addresses this issue by acking those unattended interrupts
in the tasklet. Local test showed an order of magnitude improvement
in terms of the number of interrupts without sacrificing networking
throughput. This is a workaround for hardware issue.

c0cd884af0 r8169: offical fix for CVE-2009-4537 (overlength frame DMAs)
Official patch to fix the r8169 frame length check error.

Based on this initial thread:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=126202972828626&w=1
This is the official patch to fix the frame length problems in the r8169
driver.  As noted in the previous thread, while this patch incurs a performance
hit on the driver, its possible to improve performance dynamically by updating
the mtu and rx_copybreak values at runtime to return performance to what it was
for those NICS which are unaffected by the ideosyncracy (if there are any).

Summary:

    A while back Eric submitted a patch for r8169 in which the proper
allocated frame size was written to RXMaxSize to prevent the NIC from dmaing too
much data.  This was done in commit fdd7b4c330.  A
long time prior to that however, Francois posted
126fa4b9ca, which expiclitly disabled the MaxSize
setting due to the fact that the hardware behaved in odd ways when overlong
frames were received on NIC's supported by this driver.  This was mentioned in a
security conference recently:
http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan//events/3596.en.html

It seems that if we can't enable frame size filtering, then, as Eric correctly
noticed, we can find ourselves DMA-ing too much data to a buffer, causing
corruption.  As a result is seems that we are forced to allocate a frame which
is ready to handle a maximally sized receive.

This obviously has performance issues with it, so to mitigate that issue, this
patch does two things:

1) Raises the copybreak value to the frame allocation size, which should force
appropriately sized packets to get allocated on rx, rather than a full new 16k
buffer.

2) This patch only disables frame filtering initially (i.e., during the NIC
open), changing the MTU results in ring buffer allocation of a size in relation
to the new mtu (along with a warning indicating that this is dangerous).

Because of item (2), individuals who can't cope with the performance hit (or can
otherwise filter frames to prevent the bug), or who have hardware they are sure
is unaffected by this issue, can manually lower the copybreak and reset the mtu
such that performance is restored easily.

This is quite similar to b39fe41f48
though said registers are not even documented as 64-bit registers
- as opposed to the initial TxDescStartAddress ones - but as single
bytes which must be combined into 32 bits at the MMIO read/write
level before being merged into a 64 bit logical entity.

Credits go to Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> for the MAR
registers (aka "multicast is broken for ages on ARM) and to

a2fd940f4c bonding: fix broken multicast with round-robin mode
Round-robin (mode 0) does nothing to ensure that any multicast traffic
originally destined for the host will continue to arrive at the host when
the link that sent the IGMP join or membership report goes down.  One of
the benefits of absolute round-robin transmit.

Keeping track of subscribed multicast groups for each slave did not seem
like a good use of resources, so I decided to simply send on the
curr_active slave of the bond (typically the first enslaved device that
is up).  This makes failover management simple as IGMP membership
reports only need to be sent when the curr_active_slave changes.  I
tested this patch and it appears to work as expected.
