ath5k: disable MIB interrupts
The MIB interrupt fires whenever counters overflow; however without
support for automatic noise immunity, we can sometimes get an interrupt
storm. The get_stats() callback reads the counters anyway so we can
disable the interrupt for now until ANI is implemented. This fixes
the issue reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12647.

This is because the ucc_geth_stop() routine assumes that ugeth->phydev
is always initialized by the ucc_geth_open(), while it is not in case
of errors.
If we add a check to the ucc_geth_stop(), then another oops pops up:

That one happens because ucc_geth_stop() does not call phy_disconnect()

And again, ucc_geth_stop() assumes that ugeth->phydev is there, while
it isn't.
This patch fixes all three oopses simply by rearranging some code:
- In ucc_geth_open(): move init_phy() call to the beginning, so
that we only call ucc_geth_stop() with a PHY attached;
- Move phy_disconnect() call from ucc_geth_close() to
ucc_geth_stop(), so that we'll always disconnect the PHY.

Commit 778d80be52699596bf70e0eb0761cf5e1e46088d
(ipv6: Add disable_ipv6 sysctl to disable IPv6 operaion on specific interface)
seems to have introduced a leak of sk_buff's for ipv6 traffic,
at least in some configurations where idev is NULL, or when ipv6
is disabled via sysctl.
The problem is that if the first condition of the if-statement
returns non-NULL, it returns an skb with only one reference,
and when the other conditions apply, execution jumps to the "out"
label, which does not call kfree_skb for it.
To plug this leak, change to use the "drop" label instead.
(this relies on it being ok to call kfree_skb on NULL)
This also allows us to avoid calling rcu_read_unlock here,
and removes the only user of the "out" label.

ext3: Avoid starting a transaction in writepage when not necessary
We don't have to start a transaction in writepage() when all the blocks
are a properly allocated. Even in ordered mode either the data has been
written via write() and they are thus already added to transaction's list
or the data was written via mmap and then it's random in which transaction
they get written anyway.
This should help VM to pageout dirty memory without blocking on transaction
commits.

m68k: irq_node.handler() should return irqreturn_t
commit b5dc7840b3ebe9c7967dd8ba73db957767009ff9 ("m68k: introduce irq
controller") reverted the return type of struct irq_node.handler() from
irqreturn_t to int. Change it back to irqreturn_t, else it will give a
compiler warning when irqreturn_t is turned into an enum in the near future:
| arch/m68k/kernel/ints.c:231: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
