The RX fifo can be accessed from the common tasklet or it can
be reaped/cleaned when RX is stopped, which is done when doing
a reset or channel change - this happens in process context.
Since it is ensured that there are no pending tasklets when
stopping RX and cleaning the FIFO, there is no need to use
SKB queue functions which take internal locks.

The e{uid,gid} --> {uid,gid} credentials fix conflicted with the
cleanup in net-next to now pass cred structs around.
The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.
An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
code.
Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
argument.
Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO
rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

This driver uses the crummy "| foo" style, putting the
logical operation at the beginning of lines. Then
when the VLAN tag flag bits got changed the operator
ended up at both the end and the beginning of some lines.
Fix the build error by having it uniformly use the operator
at the end of the line.

Allow L2 redirection when VXLAN L3 switching is enabled
This patch restricts L3 switching to destination MAC addresses that are
marked as routers in order to allow virtual IP appliances that do L2
redirection to function with VXLAN L3 switching enabled.
We use L3 switching on VXLAN networks to avoid extra hops when the nominal
router for cross-subnet traffic for a VM is remote and the ultimate
destination may be local, or closer to the local node. Currently, the
destination IP address takes precedence over the MAC address in all cases.
Some network appliances receive packets for a virtualized IP address and
redirect by changing the destination MAC address (only) to be the final
destination for packet processing. VXLAN tunnel endpoints with L3 switching
enabled may then overwrite this destination MAC address based on the packet IP
address, resulting in potential loops and, at least, breaking L2 redirections
that travel through tunnel endpoints.
This patch limits L3 switching to the intended case where the original
destination MAC address is a next-hop router and relies on the destination
MAC address for all other cases, thus allowing L2 redirection and L3 switching
to coexist peacefully.

Some frontend drivers are sending packets > 64 KiB in length. This length
overflows the length field in the first slot making the following slots have
an invalid length.
Turn this error back into a non-fatal error by dropping the packet. To avoid
having the following slots having fatal errors, consume all slots in the
packet.
This does not reopen the security hole in XSA-39 as if the packet as an
invalid number of slots it will still hit fatal error case.

This patch tries to coalesce tx requests when constructing grant copy
structures. It enables netback to deal with situation when frontend's
MAX_SKB_FRAGS is larger than backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
With the help of coalescing, this patch tries to address two regressions
avoid reopening the security hole in XSA-39.
Regression 1. The reduction of the number of supported ring entries (slots)
per packet (from 18 to 17). This regression has been around for some time but
remains unnoticed until XSA-39 security fix. This is fixed by coalescing
slots.
Regression 2. The XSA-39 security fix turning "too many frags" errors from
just dropping the packet to a fatal error and disabling the VIF. This is fixed
by coalescing slots (handling 18 slots when backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS is 17)
which rules out false positive (using 18 slots is legit) and dropping packets
using 19 to `max_skb_slots` slots.
To avoid reopening security hole in XSA-39, frontend sending packet using more
than max_skb_slots is considered malicious.
The behavior of netback for packet is thus:
1-18 slots: valid
19-max_skb_slots slots: drop and respond with an error
max_skb_slots+ slots: fatal error
max_skb_slots is configurable by admin, default value is 20.
Also change variable name from "frags" to "slots" in netbk_count_requests.
Please note that RX path still has dependency on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This will be
fixed with separate patch.

This patch sets the coherent DMA mask to 64-bit after the be2net driver has
been acknowledged that the system is 64-bit DMA capable. The coherent DMA
mask is examined by the Intel IOMMU driver to determine whether to allow
pass through context mapping for all devices. With this patch, the be2net
driver combined with be2net compatible hardware provides comparable
performance to the case where vt-d is disabled. The main use-case for this
change is to decrease the time necessary to copy virtual machine memory
during KVM live migration instantiations.
This patch was tested on a system that enables the IOMMU in non-coherent
mode. Two DMA remapper issues were encountered in the previous version and
both patches have been committed.
