f8212f979f ixgbe: enable HW RSC for 82599
This patch enables hardware receive side coalescing for 82599 hardware.
82599 can merge multiple frames from the same TCP/IP flow into a single
structure that can span one ore more descriptors.  The accumulated data is
arranged similar to how jumbo frames are arranged with the exception that
other packets can be interlaced inbetween.  To overcome this issue a next
pointer is included in the written back descriptor which indicates the next
descriptor in the writeback sequence.

This feature sets the NETIF_F_LRO flag and clearing it via the ethtool set
flags operation will also disable hardware RSC.

45a5ead022 ixgbe: enable hardware offload for sctp
Inspired by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

This is the code to enable ixgbe for hardware offload support
of CRC32c on both transmit and receive of SCTP traffic.

only 82599 supports this offload, not 82598.

b9473560c6 igb: Enable SCTP checksum offloading
Originally from: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

This patch, both the driver portion and the sctp code was
modified by Jesse Brandeburg and is

Copyright(c) 2009 Intel Corporation.

Thanks go to Vlad for starting this work.

Intel 82576 chipset supports SCTP checksum offloading.  This
patch enables this functionality in the driver.  A new NETIF
feature is introduced for SCTP checksum offload.  If the driver
supports CRC32c checksum, it can set this feature flag.  The
hardware can offload both transmit and receive.

182ff8dfdb igb/ixgbe: remove unecessary checks for CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
Both of these drivers do a check to verify ip_summed is set to
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY prior to passing the packet to GRO.  GRO itself
already does such a check so it is redundant and can be removed as this
will likely cause out of order issues when receiving a packet that didn't
pass checksum validation.

833cc67c77 smsc911x: add fifo byteswap support V2
This is V2 of the smsc911x fifo byteswap patch.

The smsc911x hardware supports both big and little and endian
hardware configurations, and the linux smsc911x driver currently
detects word order.

For correct operation on big endian platforms lacking swapped
byte lanes the following patch is needed. Only fifo data is
swapped, register data does not require any swapping.

ff61e5ccc3 powerpc/cell: Select PCI for IBM_CELL_BLADE AND CELLEB
Currently PPC_CELL_NATIVE selects PPC_OF_PLATFORM_PCI, but does not
select PCI. This can lead to a config with the former and the latter
disabled, which does not build.

To fix this PPC_CELL_NATIVE should select PCI. However, that would
force PCI on for QPACE, which also selects PPC_CELL_NATIVE. So
instead move the select of PPC_OF_PLATFORM_PCI and PCI under both
IBM_CELL_BLADE and CELLEB.

2e8aead1b5 powerpc: ppc32 needs elf_read_implies_exec()
On ppc64 we implemented elf_read_implies_exec() for 32-bit binaries
because old toolchains had bugs where they didn't mark program
segments executable that needed to be.  For some reason we didn't do
this on ppc32 builds.  This hadn't been an issue until commit 8d30c14c
("powerpc/mm: Rework I$/D$ coherency (v3)"), which had as a side
effect that we are now enforcing execute permissions to some extent on
32-bit 4xx and Book E processors.

This fixes it by defining elf_read_implies_exec on 32-bit to turn on
the read-implies-exec behaviour on programs that are sufficiently old
that they don't have a PT_GNU_STACK program header.

109d67e4f1 RDMA/nes: Fix hang issues for large cluster dynamic connections
Running large cluster setup, we are hanging after many hours of
testing.  Fixing this required going over the code and making sure the
rexmit entry was properly removed based on the cm_node's state and
packet received.  Also when receiving a FIN packet, check seq# and
make sure there were no errors before calling handle_fin().

Following are the changes done in nes_cm.c:

* handle_ack_pkt() needs to return error value, so in case of error,
  handle_fin() is not called. Some cleanup done while going over the code.

* handle_rst_pkt(), handling of cm_node's NES_CM_STATE_LAST_ACK is missing.

* process_packet(), in case of FIN only packet is received, call
  check_seq() before processing.

* in handle_fin_pkt(), we are calling cleanup_retrans_entry() for all
  conditions, even if the packets need to be dropped.

7b1a14bbb0 Btrfs: fix acl caching
Linus noticed the btrfs code to cache acls wasn't properly caching
a NULL acl when the inode didn't have any acls.  This meant the common
case of no acls resulted in expensive btree searches every time the
kernel checked permissions (which is quite often).

This is a modified version of Linus' original patch:

Properly set initial acl fields to BTRFS_ACL_NOT_CACHED in the inode.
This forces an acl lookup when permission checks are done.

Fix btrfs_get_acl to avoid lookups and locking when the inode acls fields
are set to null.

Fix btrfs_get_acl to use the right return value from __btrfs_getxattr
when deciding to cache a NULL acl.  It was storing a NULL acl when
__btrfs_getxattr return -ENOENT, but __btrfs_getxattr was actually returning
-ENODATA for this case.

3e9c18e1dc davinci: DM644x: NAND: update partitioning
Update NAND partitioning for the dm6446 evm, unmasking the hidden
data at the beginning and letting the kernel be updated from Linux.

 - This is boot-compatible with TI's software (U-Boot 1.20 and both
   the 2.6.10 and 2.6.18 kernels), in terms of startup and loading
   kernels from flash.

 - In the same way, it's also boot-compatible with mainline U-Boot,
   which stores U-Boot params in block 0 not block 16.

 - It's not quite compatible with systems that previously used NAND
   partitions to hold (filesystem) data.  The compatibilities are a
   bit different based on which kernel was used previously
     + Users of TI/MV kernels no longer see mtd2 "params"
       (mainline u-boot env is in a different place)
	* Filesystem is now mtd2 ... vs mtd3
     + Users of GIT kernels now see mtd0 and mtd1 partitions
	* Filesystem partition starts 640 KBytes earlier
	* Filesystem is now mtd2 ... vs mtd0
     * Linux now *uses* the flash-resident BBT
	* Removes annoying slowdown/hiccup during boot
	* Potentially ~64KB less space available with TI/MV kernels

If you *used* NAND partitions from Linux, there is no solution that's
fully compatible with all previous kernels in those respects ... ergo
this "best compromise".  It'd be good to back back up the filesystem
data; or, carry your own backwards-compatibility patch for awhile.

d0e47fba05 davinci: update DM644x support in preparation for more SoCs
Rework DM644x code into SoC specific and board specific parts.
This is also to generalize the structure a bit so it's easier to add
support for new SoCs in the DaVinci family.
