45b0cb8abd bonding: Re-enable netpoll over bonding
With the inclusion of previous fixup patches, netpoll over bonding apears to
work reliably with failover conditions.  This reverts Gospos previous commit
c22d7ac844, and allows access again to the netpoll
functionality in the bonding driver.

3b410a310b bonding: Fix netconsole to not deadlock on rmmod
Netconsole calls netpoll_cleanup on receipt of a NETDEVICE_UNREGISTER event.
The notifier subsystem calls these event handlers with rtnl_lock held, which
netpoll_cleanup also takes, resulting in deadlock.  Fix this by calling the
__netpoll_cleanup interior function instead, and fixing up the additional
pointers.

990c3d6f9c bonding: Fix napi poll for bonding driver
Usually the netpoll path, when preforming a napi poll can get away with just
polling all the napi instances of the configured device.  Thats not the case for
the bonding driver however, as the napi instances which may wind up getting
flagged as needing polling after the poll_controller call don't belong to the
bonded device, but rather to the slave devices.  Fix this by checking the device
in question for the IFF_MASTER flag, if set, we know we need to check the full
poll list for this cpu, rather than just the devices napi instance list.

e843fa5088 bonding: Fix deadlock in bonding driver resulting from internal locking when using netpoll
The monitoring paths in the bonding driver take write locks that are shared by
the tx path.  If netconsole is in use, these paths can call printk which puts us
in the netpoll tx path, which, if netconsole is attached to the bonding driver,
result in deadlock (the xmit_lock guards are useless in netpoll_send_skb, as the
monitor paths in the bonding driver don't claim the xmit_lock, nor should they).
The solution is to use a per cpu flag internal to the driver to indicate when a
cpu is holding the lock in a path that might recusrse into the tx path for the
driver via netconsole.  By checking this flag on transmit, we can defer the
sending of the netconsole frames until a later time using the retransmit feature
of netpoll_send_skb that is triggered on the return code NETDEV_TX_BUSY.  I've
tested this and am able to transmit via netconsole while causing failover
conditions on the bond slave links.

c2355e1ab9 bonding: Fix bonding drivers improper modification of netpoll structure
The bonding driver currently modifies the netpoll structure in its xmit path
while sending frames from netpoll.  This is racy, as other cpus can access the
netpoll structure in parallel. Since the bonding driver points np->dev to a
slave device, other cpus can inadvertently attempt to send data directly to
slave devices, leading to improper locking with the bonding master, lost frames,
and deadlocks.  This patch fixes that up.

This patch also removes the real_dev pointer from the netpoll structure as that
data is really only used by bonding in the poll_controller, and we can emulate
its behavior by check each slave for IS_UP.

12dcd86b75 igb: fix stats handling
There are currently some problems with igb.

- On 32bit arches, maintaining 64bit counters without proper
synchronization between writers and readers.

- Stats updated every two seconds, as reported by Jesper.
   (Jesper provided a patch for this)

- Potential problem between worker thread and ethtool -S

This patch uses u64_stats_sync, and convert everything to be 64bit safe,
SMP safe, even on 32bit arches. It integrates Jesper idea of providing
accurate stats at the time user reads them.

f1f8c6cbe6 can: mcp251x: Don't use pdata->model for chip selection anymore
Since commit e446630c96, i.e. v2.6.35-rc1,
the mcp251x chip model can be selected via the modalias member in the
struct spi_board_info. The driver stores the actual model in the
struct mcp251x_platform_data.

From the driver point of view the platform_data should be read only.
Since all in-tree users of the mcp251x have already been converted to
the modalias method, this patch moves the "model" member from the
struct mcp251x_platform_data to the driver's private data structure.

cdd861d68d ns83820: spin_lock_irq() => spin_lock()
This is essentially cosmetic.  At this point the IRQs are already
disabled because we called spin_lock_irq(&dev->rx_info.lock).

The real bug here was fixed back in 2006 in 3a10ccebe: "[PATCH] lock
validator: fix ns83820.c irq-flags bug".  Prior to that patch, it was
a "spin_lock_irq is not nestable" type bug.  The 2006 patch changes the
unlock to not re-enable IRQs, which eliminates the potential deadlock.

But this bit was missed.  We should change the lock function as well so
it balances nicely.

e39428d53d i2c-imx: do not allow interruptions when waiting for I2C to complete
The i2c_imx_trx_complete() function is using
wait_event_interruptible_timeout() to wait for the I2C controller to
signal that it has completed an I2C bus operation. If the process that
causes the I2C operation receives a signal, the wait will be
interrupted, returning an error. It is better to let the I2C operation
finished before handling the signal (i.e. returning into userspace).

It is safe to use wait_event_timeout() instead, because the timeout
will allow the process to exit if the I2C bus hangs. It's also better
to allow the I2C operation to finish, because unacknowledged I2C
operations can cause the I2C bus to hang.

117a8cdea3 fib_hash: RCU conversion phase 1
First step for RCU conversion of fib_hash :

struct fn_zone are created and never deleted.

Very classic conversion, using rcu_assign_pointer(), rcu_dereference()
and rtnl_dereference() verbs.

__rcu markers on fz_next and fn_zone_list

They are created under RTNL, we dont need fib_hash_lock anymore in
fn_new_zone().

9bef83edfb fib_hash: embed initial hash table in fn_zone
While looking for false sharing problems, I noticed
sizeof(struct fn_zone) was small (28 bytes) and possibly sharing a cache
line with an often written kernel structure.

Most of the time, fn_zone uses its initial hash table of 16 slots.

We can avoid the false sharing problem by embedding this initial hash
table in fn_zone itself, so that sizeof(fn_zone) > L1_CACHE_BYTES

We did a similar optimization in commit a6501e080c (Reduce memory needs
and speedup lookups)

Add a fz_revorder field to speedup fn_hash() a bit.

8e602ce298 netns: reorder fields in struct net
In a network bench, I noticed an unfortunate false sharing between
'loopback_dev' and 'count' fields in "struct net".

'count' is written each time a socket is created or destroyed, while
loopback_dev might be often read in routing code.

Move loopback_dev in a read mostly section of "struct net"

Note: struct netns_xfrm is cache line aligned on SMP.
(It contains a "struct dst_ops")
Move it at the end to avoid holes, and reduce sizeof(struct net) by 128
bytes on ia32.
