net/compat: fix dev_ifsioc emulation corner cases
Handling for SIOCSHWTSTAMP is broken on architectures
with a split user/kernel address space like s390,
because it passes a real user pointer while using
set_fs(KERNEL_DS).
A similar problem might arise the next time somebody
adds code to dev_ifsioc.
Split up dev_ifsioc into three separate functions for
SIOCSHWTSTAMP, SIOC*IFMAP and all other numbers so
we can get rid of set_fs in all potentially affected
cases.

DM9000: Wake on LAN support
Add support for Wake on LAN (WOL) reception and waking the device up from
this signal via the ethtool interface. Currently we are only supporting
the magic-packet variant of wakeup.
WOL is enabled by specifying a second interrupt resource to the driver
which indicates where the interrupt for the WOL is being signalled. This
then enables the necessary ethtool calls to leave the device in a state
to receive WOL frames when going into suspend.

netdev: fold name hash properly (v3)
The full_name_hash function does not produce well distributed values in
the lower bits, so most code uses hash_32() to fold it. This is really
a bug introduced when name hashing was added, back in 2.5 when I added
name hashing.
hash_32 is all that is needed since full_name_hash returns unsigned int
which is only 32 bits on 64 bit platforms.
Also, there is no point in using hash_32 on ifindex, because the is naturally
sequential and usually well distributed.

Before calling gfar_clean_tx_ring() the driver grabs an irqsave

It appears that gfar_clean_tx_ring() and gfar_start_xmit() are

modify num_txbdfree.

skbuff: Do not allow skb recycling with disabled IRQs
NAPI drivers try to recycle SKBs in their polling routine, but we
generally don't know the context in which the polling will be called,

This patch adds irqs_disabled() test to the skb_recycle_check()

path with IRQs disabled.
As a side effect, this patch actually disables skb recycling for some
[broken] drivers. E.g. gianfar driver grabs an irqsave spinlock during
TX ring processing, and then tries to recycle an skb, and that caused

iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 series
When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection
mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field
in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use
protection.
The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3:
Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the
BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT
stations in a 20 MHz BSS
Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or
secondary channels
Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one
20 MHz HT station is associated.
Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS.
When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the
Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or
CTS-to-Self.
By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less
overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better
protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in
highly-congested environment.
For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the
recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

xfrm: SAD entries do not expire correctly after suspend-resume
This fixes the following bug in the current implementation of
net/xfrm: SAD entries timeouts do not count the time spent by the machine
in the suspended state. This leads to the connectivity problems because
after resuming local machine thinks that the SAD entry is still valid, while
it has already been expired on the remote server.
The cause of this is very simple: the timeouts in the net/xfrm are bound to
the old mod_timer() timers. This patch reassigns them to the
CLOCK_REALTIME hrtimer.
I have been using this version of the patch for a few months on my
machines without any problems. Also run a few stress tests w/o any

net/ipx: push down BKL into a ipx_dgram_ops
Making the BKL usage explicit in ipx makes it more
obvious where it is used, reduces code size and helps
getting rid of the BKL in common code.
I did not analyse how to kill lock_kernel from ipx
entirely, this will involve either proving that it's not
needed, or replacing with a proper mutex or spinlock,
after finding out which data structures are protected
by the lock.

net, compat_ioctl: handle more ioctls correctly
The MII ioctls and SIOCSIFNAME need to go through ifsioc conversion,
which they never did so far. Some others are not implemented in the
native path, so we can just return -EINVAL directly.
Add IFSLAVE ioctls to the EINVAL list and move it to the end to
optimize the code path for the common case.

compat: move sockios handling to net/socket.c
This removes the original socket compat_ioctl code
from fs/compat_ioctl.c and converts the code from the copy
in net/socket.c into a single function. We add a few cycles
of runtime to compat_sock_ioctl() with the long switch()
statement, but gain some cycles in return by simplifying
the call chain to get there.
Due to better inlining, save 1.5kb of object size in the
process, and enable further savings:

This makes an identical copy of the socket compat_ioctl code

The code is hidden inside of #if 0 and gets activated in the
