virtio: virtio_net free transmit skbs in a timer
virtio_net currently only frees old transmit skbs just
before queueing new ones. If the queue is full, it then
enables interrupts and waits for notification that more
work has been performed.
However, a side-effect of this scheme is that there are
always xmit skbs left dangling when no new packets are
sent, against the Documentation/networking/driver.txt
guideline:
"... it is not allowed for your TX mitigation scheme
to let TX packets "hang out" in the TX ring unreclaimed
forever if no new TX packets are sent."
Add a timer to ensure that any time we queue new TX
skbs, we will shortly free them again.
This fixes an easily reproduced hang at shutdown where
iptables attempts to unload nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack
waits for an skb it is tracking to be freed, but virtio_net
never frees it.

On 5761 non-e devices, two problems prevent the administrator from

The first problem is that GPIO 0 and GPIO 2 have been swapped. This
change prevented the administrator from turning on WOL when it is
disabled in NVRAM. The fix is to add a new path for the 5761 that
swaps the two GPIOs in the code as well.
The second problem is that GPIO 1 could not be toggled by the driver
because the GPIO is shared with the debug UART GPIO. This will prevent
the administrator from being able to turn WOL off if it was enabled in
NVRAM. The fix is to always disable the debug UART after a GRC reset.

tcp: fix skb vs fack_count out-of-sync condition
This bug is able to corrupt fackets_out in very rare cases.
In order for this to cause corruption:
1) DSACK in the middle of previous SACK block must be generated.
2) In order to take that particular branch, part or all of the
DSACKed segment must already be SACKed so that we have that
in cache in the first place.
3) The new info must be top enough so that fackets_out will be
updated on this iteration.
...then fack_count is updated while skb wasn't, then we walk again
that particular segment thus updating fack_count twice for
a single skb and finally that value is assigned to fackets_out
by tcp_sacktag_one.
It is safe to call tcp_sacktag_one just once for a segment (at
DSACK), no need to call again for plain SACK.
Potential problem of the miscount are limited to premature entry
to recovery and to inflated reordering metric (which could even
cancel each other out in the most the luckiest scenarios :-)).
Both are quite insignificant in worst case too and there exists
also code to reset them (fackets_out once sacked_out becomes zero
and reordering metric on RTO).
This has been reported by a number of people, because it occurred
quite rarely, it has been very evasive. Andy Furniss was able to
get it to occur couple of times so that a bit more info was
collected about the problem using a debug patch, though it still
required lot of checking around. Thanks also to others who have
tried to help here.
This is listed as Bugzilla #10346. The bug was introduced by
me in commit 68f8353b48 ([TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing &
sack_recv_cache use), I probably thought back then that there's
need to scan that entry twice or didn't dare to make it go
through it just once there. Going through twice would have
required restoring fack_count after the walk but as noted above,
I chose to drop the additional walk step altogether here.

incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments
could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not
being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions
can easily cause this situation to occur.
I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well
as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to
network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but
I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to
be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep
TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been
possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already
underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we
might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make
FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the
losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now
and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it
likely involves some code shuffling).
This bug was found by Brian Vowell while running my TCP debug
patch to find cause of another TCP issue (fackets_out
miscount).

According to this and another similar lockdep report inet_fragment
locks are taken from nf_ct_frag6_gather() with softirqs enabled, but
these locks are mainly used in softirq context, so disabling BHs is
necessary.

netfilter: xt_connlimit: fix accouning when receive RST packet in ESTABLISHED state
In xt_connlimit match module, the counter of an IP is decreased when
the TCP packet is go through the chain with ip_conntrack state TW.
Well, it's very natural that the server and client close the socket
with FIN packet. But when the client/server close the socket with RST
packet(using so_linger), the counter for this connection still exsit.
The following patch can fix it which is based on linux-2.6.25.4

The neighbor table time of last use information is returned in the
incorrect unit. Kernel to user space ABI's need to use USER_HZ (or
milliseconds), otherwise the application has to try and discover the
real system HZ value which is problematic. Linux has standardized on
keeping USER_HZ consistent (100hz) even when kernel is running
internally at some other value.
This change is small, but it breaks the ABI for older version of
iproute2 utilities. But these utilities are already broken since they
are looking at the psched_hz values which are completely different. So
let's just go ahead and fix both kernel and user space. Older
utilities will just print wrong values.

ax25: Fix NULL pointer dereference and lockup.

There is only one function in AX25 calling skb_append(), and it really
looks suspicious: appends skb after previously enqueued one, but in
the meantime this previous skb could be removed from the queue.
This patch Fixes it the simple way, so this is not fully compatible with
the current method, but testing hasn't shown any problems.

In rfcomm_dev_state_change, it's possible that rfcomm_dev_put try to
take the dlc lock, then we will deadlock.
Here fixed it by unlock dlc before rfcomm_dev_get in
rfcomm_dev_state_change.
why not unlock just before rfcomm_dev_put? it's because there's
another problem. rfcomm_dev_get/rfcomm_dev_del will take
rfcomm_dev_lock, but in rfcomm_dev_add the lock order is :
rfcomm_dev_lock --> dlc lock
so I unlock dlc before the taken of rfcomm_dev_lock.
Actually it's a regression caused by commit 1905f6c736cb618e07eca0c96e60e3c024023428 ("bluetooth :
__rfcomm_dlc_close lock fix"), the dlc state_change could be two
callbacks : rfcomm_sk_state_change and rfcomm_dev_state_change. I
missed the rfcomm_sk_state_change that time.

Gcc might re-order MMIO accessors vs. surrounding consistent
memory accesses, which is a "bad thing", and could break drivers.
This fixes it by adding a "memory" clobber to the MMIO accessors,
which should prevent gcc from doing that reordering.
