Oops, this was an old version, the up2date ones also took care of "used"
field.

I guess its time for a sleep, sorry again.

[PATCH net-next V2] neigh: reorder struct neighbour fields

(refcnt) and (ha_lock, ha, used, dev, output, ops, primary_key) should
be placed on a separate cache lines.

refcnt can be often written, while other fields are mostly read.

This gave me good result on stress test :

before:

real    0m45.570s
user    0m15.525s
sys     9m56.669s

After:

real    0m41.841s
user    0m15.261s
sys     8m45.949s

b0057c51db tg3: restore rx_dropped accounting
commit 511d22247b (tg3: 64 bit stats on all arches), overlooked the
rx_dropped accounting.

We use a full "struct rtnl_link_stats64" to hold rx_dropped value, but
forgot to report it in tg3_get_stats64().

Use an "unsigned long" instead to shrink "struct tg3" by 176 bytes, and
report this value to stats readers.

Increment rx_dropped counter for oversized frames.

cd79481d27 memblock: Annotate memblock functions with __init_memblock
Stephen found

WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x25ab8): Section mismatch in reference from the function memblock_find_base() to the function .init.text:memblock_find_region()
The function memblock_find_base() references
the function __init memblock_find_region().
This is often because memblock_find_base lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of memblock_find_region is wrong.

So let memblock_find_region() to use __init_memblock instead of __init
directly.

Also fix one function that did not have __init* to be __init_memblock.

73cf624d02 x86, numa: For each node, register the memory blocks actually used
Russ reported SGI UV is broken recently. He said:

| The SRAT table shows that memory range is spread over two nodes.
|
| SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 100000000-800000000
| SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 800000000-1000000000
| SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 1000000000-1080000000
|
|Previously, the kernel early_node_map[] would show three entries
|with the proper node.
|
|[    0.000000]     0: 0x00100000 -> 0x00800000
|[    0.000000]     1: 0x00800000 -> 0x01000000
|[    0.000000]     0: 0x01000000 -> 0x01080000
|
|The problem is recent community kernel early_node_map[] shows
|only two entries with the node 0 entry overlapping the node 1
|entry.
|
|    0: 0x00100000 -> 0x01080000
|    1: 0x00800000 -> 0x01000000

Before that commit, register_active_regions() is called for every SRAT memory
entry right away.

Use nodememblk_range[] instead of nodes[] in order to make sure we
capture the actual memory blocks registered with each node.  nodes[]
contains an extended range which spans all memory regions associated
with a node, but that does not mean that all the memory in between are
included.

0e4905c019 OMAP3: DMA: Errata i541: sDMA FIFO draining does not finish
Implement the suggested workaround for OMAP3 regarding to sDMA draining
issue, when the channel is disabled on the fly.
This errata affects the following configuration:
sDMA transfer is source synchronized
Buffering is enabled
SmartStandby is selected.

The issue can be easily reproduced by creating overrun situation while
recording audio.
Either introduce load to the CPU:
nice -19 arecord -D hw:0 -M -B 10000 -F 5000 -f dat > /dev/null & \
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null

or suspending the arecord, and resuming it:
arecord -D hw:0 -M -B 10000 -F 5000 -f dat > /dev/null
CTRL+Z; fg; CTRL+Z; fg; ...

In case of overrun audio stops DMA, and restarts it (without reseting
the sDMA channel). When we hit this errata in stop case (sDMA drain did
not complete), at the coming start the sDMA will not going to be
operational (it is still draining).
This leads to DMA stall condition.
On OMAP3 we can recover with sDMA channel reset, it has been observed
that by introducing unrelated sDMA activity might also help (reading
from MMC for example).

The same errata exists for OMAP2, where the suggestion is to disable the
buffering to avoid this type of error.
On OMAP3 the suggestion is to set sDMA to NoStandby before disabling
the channel, and wait for the drain to finish, than configure sDMA to
SmartStandby again.

3e57f1626b omap: dma: Fix buffering disable bit setting for omap24xx
An errata workaround for omap24xx is not setting the buffering disable bit
25 what is the purpose but channel enable bit 7 instead.

Background for this fix is the DMA stalling issue with ASoC omap-mcbsp
driver. Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@nokia.com> has found an issue in
recording that the DMA stall could happen if there were a buffer overrun
detected by ALSA and the DMA was stopped and restarted due that. This
problem is known to occur on both OMAP2420 and OMAP3. It can recover on
OMAP3 after dma free, dma request and reconfiguration cycle. However, on
OMAP2420 it seems that only way to recover is a reset.

Problem was not visible before the commit c12abc0. That commit changed that
the McBSP transmitter/receiver is released from reset only when needed. That
is, only enabled McBSP transmitter without transmission was able to prevent
this DMA stall problem in receiving side and underlying problem did not show
up until now. McBSP transmitter itself seems to no be reason since DMA
stall does not recover by enabling the transmission after stall.

Debugging showed that there were a DMA write active during DMA stop time and
it never completed even when restarting the DMA. Experimenting showed that
the DMA buffering disable bit could be used to avoid stalling when using
source synchronized transfers. However that could have performance hit and
OMAP3 TRM states that buffering disable is not allowed for destination
synchronized transfers so subsequent patch will implement a method to
complete DMA writes when stopping.

This patch is based on assumtion that complete lock-up on OMAP2420 is
different but related problem. I don't have access to OMAP2420 errata but
I believe this old workaround here is put for a reason but unfortunately
a wrong bit was typed and problem showed up only now.

7bdb0d18bf ocfs2: Add a mount option "coherency=*" to handle cluster coherency for O_DIRECT writes.
Currently, the default behavior of O_DIRECT writes was allowing
concurrent writing among nodes to the same file, with no cluster
coherency guaranteed (no EX lock held).  This can leave stale data in
the cache for buffered reads on other nodes.

The new mount option introduce a chance to choose two different
behaviors for O_DIRECT writes:

    * coherency=full, as the default value, will disallow
                      concurrent O_DIRECT writes by taking
                      EX locks.

    * coherency=buffered, allow concurrent O_DIRECT writes
                          without EX lock among nodes, which
                          gains high performance at risk of
                          getting stale data on other nodes.

However, a simple initialization of "bytes" variable with 0 will fix it.

Note that these are less of an issue since these all require CAP_NET_ADMIN.

3590eea418 rt2x00: Validate MCS on RX path
Similar to the PLCP signal and bitrates values,

cdfd2c5cff rt2x00: Move watchdog work to kernel work_queue
The watchdog function must run on a work_queue
which is independent of any other work inside rt2x00.

The main reasons, being that a broken work on the mac80211
work_queue can otherwise prevent the watchdog to run (while
in fact the watchdog could fix the issue). And on the other
hand because the watchdog relies on the completion of the
completion handlers for RX/TX which for the USB case, occur
on the mac80211 workqueue.

This fixes some "Queue %d failed to flush" errors, which were
caused by the watchdog function waiting on the completion
handler which was scheduled to run right after the watchdog.

fa69560f31 rt2x00: Simplify Queue function arguments
A lot of functions accept a struct rt2x00_dev combined with
either a struct queue_entry or struct data_queue argument.
This can be simplified by only passing on the queue/entry
argument.

In cases where rt2x00_dev and a sk_buff are send together,
we can send the queue_entry instead.

rt2x00usb_alloc_urb and rt2x00usb_free_urb have a bit
of vague naming. Instead they allocate all the data which
belongs to a rt2x00 data queue entry.

a8909cfb18 ath9k: built-in rate control A-MPDU fix
This patch attempts to ensure that ath9k's built-in rate control algorithm
does not rely on the value of the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len tx status
fields unless the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag is set.

This patch has not been tested.

ebd022873a ath9k: A-MPDU rate control info fix
This patch fixes the following problems with the rate control feedback
generated by ath9k for A-MPDU frames:

1. Rate control feedback is carried on the first frame of an aggregate
that is either ACKed, or has execeeded the software retry count and is
considered failed. However, ath9k would incorrectly assume the aggregate
had the length 1 if one of these conditions did not apply to the first
frame of the aggregate, but instead a later frame. This fix therefor
copies the bf_nframes field of the buffer in the same manner as the rates
field of the tx status.

2. Sometimes the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields of the tx status was
left uninitialized eventhough the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag was set.
This is now avoid by setting flag and fields in the same place.

3. Even if a frame has been selected for aggregation by mac80211 and
marked with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag it can sometimes happen that
ath9k transmits the frame without aggregation. In these cases the
ampdu_ack_len field could be incorrectly computed because the nbad
parameter to ath_tx_rc_status was incorrect.

15d46f38df mac80211: minstrel_ht A-MPDU fix
This patch fixes two problems with the minstrel_ht rate control
algorithms handling of A-MPDU frames:

1. The ampdu_len field of the tx status is not always initialized for
non-HT frames (and it would probably be unreasonable to require all
drivers to do so). This could cause rate control statistics to be
corrupted. We now trust the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields only when
the frame is marked with the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag.

2. Successful transmission attempts where only recognized when the A-MPDU
subframe carrying the rate control status information was marked with the
IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK flag. If this information happed to be carried on a
frame that failed to be ACKed then the other subframes (which may have
succeeded) where not correctly registered. We now update rate control
statistics regardless of whether the subframe carrying the information was
ACKed or not.

9bc6772e15 wl1251: move to it's own directory
wl1271 driver is under heavy development but on the other hand the older
wl1251 driver is currently considered more as a legacy driver. To make it
easier to develop wl1271 features move wl1251 to it's own directory,
drivers/net/wireless/wl1251.

There are no functional changes, only moving of files. One regression
is that Kconfig won't be updated automatically and user needs to enable
wl1251 manually with an older config file.

In the past, carl9170 has been plagued by mysterious
ghosts.

e.g.:
 wlan4: deauthenticated from 02:04:d8:3c:ac:c1 (Reason: 0)

Apparently, the AP sent us a bogus deauthentication
notification. But upon closer inspection the
"management frame" turned out to be a corrupted
scrap of an unsuccessful A-MPDU.

with AR9170_RX_ERROR instead of AR9170_RX_STATUS.
Luckily, the hardware specification confirmed that
the 0x80 flag will never be set for mac->error.
So, it was always just a dead branch.

The patches "rt2x00: Improve TX status entry validation" and "rt2x00: rework tx

phy1 -> rt2800pci_txdone: Warning - Got TX status for an empty queue 3, dropping
phy1 -> rt2800pci_txdone: Warning - Got TX status for an unavailable queue 7, dropping

Fix this by using the correct field definition for getting the QID out of the
tx status report.
