bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

313674afa8 [NET]: ethtool_perm_addr only has one implementation
All drivers implement ethtool get_perm_addr the same way -- by calling
the generic function.  So we can inline the generic function into the
caller and avoid going through the drivers.

44c10138fd PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revision
Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.

This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.

In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

5c15bdec5c [VLAN]: Avoid a 4-order allocation.
This patch splits the vlan_group struct into a multi-allocated struct. On
x86_64, the size of the original struct is a little more than 32KB, causing
a 4-order allocation, which is prune to problems caused by buddy-system
external fragmentation conditions.

I couldn't just use vmalloc() because vfree() cannot be called in the
softirq context of the RCU callback.

553af56775 8139cp: Don't blindly enable interrupts
Similar to this commit:

http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=d15e9c4d9a75702b30e00cdf95c71c88e3f3f51e

It's not safe in cp_start_xmit to blindly call spin_lock_irq and then
spin_unlock_irq, since it may very well be the case that cp_start_xmit
was called with interrupts already disabled (I came across this bug in
the context of netdump in RedHat kernels, but the same issue holds, for
example, in netconsole). Therefore, replace all instances of
spin_lock_irq and spin_unlock_irq with spin_lock_irqsave and
spin_unlock_irqrestore, respectively, in cp_start_xmit(). I tested this
against a fully-virtualized Xen guest using netdump, which happens to
use the 8139cp driver to talk to the emulated hardware. I don't have a
real piece of 8139cp hardware to test on, so someone else will have to
do that.

d15e9c4d9a netpoll: drivers must not enable IRQ unconditionally in their NAPI handler
net/core/netpoll.c::netpoll_send_skb() calls the poll handler when
it is available. As netconsole can be used from almost any context,
IRQ must not be enabled blindly in the NAPI handler of a driver which
supports netpoll.

8139too.c driver.

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

7668a4945b 8139cp: pci_get_drvdata(pdev) can not be NULL in suspend handler

                       [...]
                       pci_dev->driver = NULL;

   2.2) pci_register_driver
        -> __pci_register_driver
           -> driver_register
              -> bus_add_driver
                 -> driver_attach
                    -> __driver_attach (takes (device *)->sem)
                       -> driver_probe_device(drv, dev)
                          -> dev->bus->probe(dev) (== pci_device_probe)
                             -> _pci_device_probe(drv, pci_dev)
                                -> pci_call_probe(drv, pci_dev, id)
                                   -> drv->probe(dev, id) (== cp_init_one)
                                [...]
                                pci_dev->driver = drv;

   2.3) suspend_device (takes (device *)->sem)
        -> dev->bus->suspend(dev) (== pci_device_suspend)
           checking for drv = pci_dev->driver != NULL
           [...]
           -> drv->suspend(pci_dev, state) (== cp_suspend)

dev->sem and the state of pci_dev->driver provide the expected result.

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.

d73f1e3c3b [PATCH] 8139cp: fix eeprom read command length
The read command for the 93C46/93C56 EEPROMS should be 3 bits plus
the address.  This doesn't appear to affect the operation of the
read command, but similar errors for write commands do cause failures.

576cfa934e 8139cp: fix broken suspend/resume
- check that the device is up before it is enabled again;
- the descriptor ring indexes must be set to zero before
  cp_init_hw() is issued. Add a nice comment to remember
  that skb allocation failure is still not handled.

689be43945 [NET]: Remove gratuitous use of skb->tail in network drivers.
Many drivers use skb->tail unnecessarily.

In these situations, the code roughly looks like:

	dev = dev_alloc_skb(...);

	[optional] skb_reserve(skb, ...);

	... skb->tail ...

But even if the skb_reserve() happens, skb->data equals
skb->tail.  So it doesn't make any sense to use anything
other than skb->data in these cases.

Another case was the s2io.c driver directly mucking with
the skb->data and skb->tail pointers.  It really just wanted
to do an skb_reserve(), so that's what the code was changed
to do instead.

Another reason I'm making this change as it allows some SKB
cleanups I have planned simpler to merge.  In those cleanups,
skb->head, skb->tail, and skb->end pointers are removed, and
replaced with skb->head_room and skb->tail_room integers.

97f568d8e3 8139cp: safer spin loop for get_statistics
The spin loop in 8139cp is limited to 100 iterations when pulling hardware
stats. There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the
stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return
soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates
when memory has gone away.
