[SUNGEM]: Fix suspend regression due to NAPI changes.
Commit
bea3348e (the NAPI changes) made sungem unconditionally enable
NAPI when resuming and unconditionally disable when suspending, this,
however, makes napi_disable() hang when suspending when the interface
was taken down before suspend because taking the interface down also
disables NAPI. This patch makes touching the napi struct in
suspend/resume code paths depend on having the interface up, thereby
fixing the hang on suspend.
The patch also moves the napi_disable() in gem_close() under the lock so

sigwait eats blocked default-ignore signals
While a signal is blocked, it must be posted even if its action is
SIG_IGN or is SIG_DFL with the default action to ignore. This works
right most of the time, but is broken when a sigwait (rt_sigtimedwait)
is in progress. This changes the early-discard check to respect

this is a case where we need to redo a security check in fh_verify()
even though the filehandle already has an associated dentry--if the
filehandle was created by fh_compose() in an earlier operation of the
nfsv4 compound, then we may not have done these checks yet.
Without this fix it is possible, for example, to traverse from an export
without the secure ports requirement to one with it in a single
compound, and bypass the secure port check on the new export.

core dump: remain dumpable
The coredump code always calls set_dumpable(0) when it starts (even
if RLIMIT_CORE prevents any core from being dumped). The effect of
this (via task_dumpable) is to make /proc/pid/* files owned by root
instead of the user, so the user can no longer examine his own
process--in a case where there was never any privileged data to
protect. This affects e.g. auxv, environ, fd; in Fedora (execshield)
kernels, also maps. In practice, you can only notice this when a
debugger has requested PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT tracing.
set_dumpable was only used in do_coredump for synchronization and not
intended for any security purpose. (It doesn't secure anything that wasn't
already unsecured when a process dies by SIGTERM instead of SIGQUIT.)
This changes do_coredump to check the core_waiters count as the means of
synchronization, which is sufficient. Now we leave the "dumpable" bits alone.

guarantee that the relevant part of the write queue is going to
be processed in sacktag at all (skbs below snd_una) because
fastpath hint can fast forward the entrypoint.
This was also on the way of future reductions in sacktag's skb

ipw2100: fix postfix decrement errors

rt2x00: Block adhoc & master mode
rt2x00 is broken when it comes down to adhoc and master mode.
The main problem is the beaconing, which is completely failing.
Untill a solution has been found, both beacon requiring modes
must be disabled to prevent numerous bug reports.

Various symptoms depending on the .config options:
- the card stops working after some (short) time
- the card does not work at all
- the card disappears (nothing in lspci/dmesg)
A real power-off is needed to recover the card.
