sctp: correct bounds check in sctp_setsockopt_auth_key
The bonds check to prevent buffer overlflow was not exactly
right. It still allowed overflow of up to 8 bytes which is
sizeof(struct sctp_authkey).
Since optlen is already checked against the size of that struct,
we are guaranteed not to cause interger overflow either.

Fix the checksum feature advertised in device flags. The hardware support
TCP/UDP over IPv4 and TCP/UDP over IPv6 (without IPv6 extension headers).
However, the kernel feature flags do not distinguish IPv6 with/without
extension headers.
Therefore, the driver needs to use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM instead of
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM since the latter includes all IPv6 packets.
A future patch can be created to check for extension headers and perform

ibmveth: fix bad UDP checksums
This patch fixes a ibmveth bug where bad UDP checksums are being transmitted
when checksum offloading is enabled.
The hypervisor does checksum offloading only on TCP packets, so ibmveth calls
skb_checksum_help() for any other protocol. The bug happens because
the packet is being modified after the DMA map, so we would need a memory
barrier before making the hypervisor call. Reordering the code so that the
DMA map happens after skb_checksum_help() has the additional advantage of
fixing a DMA map leak if skb_checksum_help() where to fail.

The rates tag of the assoc request has room for only 8 rates. In case of
802.11g an extended rate tag is appended. However in net/wireless/mlme.c
an extended (empty) rate tag is also appended if the number of rates is
exact 8. This empty (length=0) extended rates tag causes some APs to
deny association with code 18 (unsupported rates). These APs include my
ZyXEL G-570U, and according to Tomas Winkler som Cisco APs.
'If count == 8' has been used to check for the need for an extended rates
tag. But count would also be equal to 8 if the for loop exited because of
no more supported rates. Therefore a check for count being less than
rates_len would seem more correct.

mac80211: Fix debugfs file add/del for netdev
Previous version was using incorrect union structures for non-AP
interfaces when adding and removing max_ratectrl_rateidx and
force_unicast_rateidx entries. Depending on the vif type, this ended
up in corrupting debugfs entries since the dentries inside different
union structures ended up going being on top of eachother.. As the
end result, debugfs files were being left behind with references to
freed data (instant kernel oops on access) and directories were not
removed properly when unloading mac80211 drivers. This patch fixes
those issues by using only a single union structure based on the vif
type.

mac80211: Use IWEVASSOCREQIE instead of IWEVCUSTOM
The previous code was using IWEVCUSTOM to report IEs from AssocReq and
AssocResp frames into user space. This can easily hit the 256 byte
limit (IW_CUSTOM_MAX) with APs that include number of vendor IEs in
AssocResp. This results in the event message not being sent and dmesg
showing "wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (366)" type of errors.
Convert mac80211 to use IWEVASSOCREQIE/IWEVASSOCRESPIE to avoid the
issue of being unable to send association IEs as wireless events. These
newer event types use binary encoding and larger maximum size
(IW_GENERIC_IE_MAX = 1024), so the likelyhood of not being able to send
the IEs is much smaller than with IWEVCUSTOM. As an extra benefit, the
code is also quite a bit simpler since there is no need to allocate an
extra buffer for hex encoding.

mv643xx_eth: fix double add_timer() on the receive oom timer
Commit
12e4ab79cd828563dc090d2117dc8626b344bc8f ("mv643xx_eth: be
more agressive about RX refill") changed the condition for the receive
out-of-memory timer to be scheduled from "the receive ring is empty"
to "the receive ring is not full".
This can lead to a situation where the receive out-of-memory timer is
pending because a previous rxq_refill() didn't manage to refill the
receive ring entirely as a result of being out of memory, and
rxq_refill() is then called again as a side effect of a packet receive
interrupt, and that rxq_refill() call then again does not succeed to
refill the entire receive ring with fresh empty skbuffs because we are
still out of memory, and then tries to call add_timer() on the already
scheduled out-of-memory timer.
This patch fixes this issue by changing the add_timer() call in
rxq_refill() to a mod_timer() call. If the OOM timer was not already
scheduled, this will behave as before, whereas if it was already
scheduled, this patch will push back its firing time a bit, which is
safe because we've (unsuccessfully) attempted to refill the receive
ring just before we do this.

ipv6: protocol for address routes
This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is
necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an
interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected
route, and other as a kernel route.
When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message
causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is
added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with
the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it
already has the connected route.
The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol ==

This happens because I2C probing code (drivers/of/of_i2c.c) is specifying
IRQ0 for 'no irq' case, which is correct.
The driver handles this incorrectly, though. This patch fixes it.

mm: xip/ext2 fix block allocation race
XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with
create=1. This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page
lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one
reason or another.
Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect
get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP
technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require
scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

mm: xip fix fault vs sparse page invalidate race
XIP has a race between sparse pages being inserted into page tables, and
sparse pages being zapped when its time to put a non-sparse page in.
What can happen is that a process can be left with a dangling sparse page
in a MAP_SHARED mapping, while the rest of the world sees the non-sparse
version. Ie. data corruption.
Guard these operations with a seqlock, making fault-in-sparse-pages the
slowpath, and try-to-unmap-sparse-pages the fastpath.

mm: dirty page tracking race fix
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly
be accounted for.
clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty.
page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and
write protects the pte if it was dirty. It uses page_check_address to
find the pte. That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is
not present. Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then
back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this
should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may
be dirty.
For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte
before setting it to the desired value. There may also be other code in
core mm or in arch which do similar things.
The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and
loss of dirty page accounting accuracy. XIP's __xip_unmap could easily
also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can
lead to data corruption.
Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in
page_check_address.
It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and
try_to_unmap.

bootmem: fix aligning of node-relative indexes and offsets
Absolute alignment requirements may never be applied to node-relative
offsets. Andreas Herrmann spotted this flaw when a bootmem allocation on
an unaligned node was itself not aligned because the combination of an
unaligned node with an aligned offset into that node is not garuanteed to
be aligned itself.
This patch introduces two helper functions that align a node-relative
index or offset with respect to the node's starting address so that the
absolute PFN or virtual address that results from combining the two
satisfies the requested alignment.
Then all the broken ALIGN()s in alloc_bootmem_core() are replaced by these
helpers.
