      This version of the patch fixes the bug directly in memmove.

      net sched: fix some kernel memory leaks · 1c40be12
      Eric Dumazet authored
      
      
      We leak at least 32bits of kernel memory to user land in tc dump,
      because we dont init all fields (capab ?) of the dumped structure.
      
      Use C99 initializers so that holes and non explicit fields are zeroed.

      netfilter: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: avoid lockdep false positive · 001389b9
      Eric Dumazet authored
      
      
      After commit 24b36f01 (netfilter: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: dont block
      bottom half more than necessary), lockdep can raise a warning
      because we attempt to lock a spinlock with BH enabled, while
      the same lock is usually locked by another cpu in a softirq context.
      
      Disable again BH to avoid these lockdep warnings.

      iwlwifi: fix 3945 filter flags · 8b8ab9d5

      Applying the filter flags directly as done since
      
      commit 3474ad63
      Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
      Date:   Thu Apr 29 04:43:05 2010 -0700
      
          iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly
      
      broke 3945 under some unknown circumstances, as
      reported by Alex.
      
      Since I want to keep the direct application of
      filter flags on iwlagn, duplicate the code into
      both 3945 and agn and remove committing the
      RXON that broke things from the 3945 version.

      These are allocated with pci_alloc_consistent, so calling
      pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu is incorrect usage of the API.  Remove this
      misuse and consequently avoid the following backtrace:

      phylib: available for any speed ethernet · cba86f2e

      Several gigabit network drivers (SB1250_MAC, TIGON3, FSL, GIANFAR,
      UCC_GETH, MV643XX_ETH, XILINX_LL_TEMAC, S6GMAC, STMMAC_ETH, PASEMI_MAC,
      and OCTEON_ETHERNET) select PHYLIB.  These drivers are not under
      NET_ETHERNET (10/100 mbit), so this warning is generated (long, irrelevant
      parts are omitted):
      
      warning: (NET_DSA && NET && EXPERIMENTAL && NET_ETHERNET && !S390 || ... || SB1250_MAC && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && SIBYTE_SB1xxx_SOC || TIGON3 && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && PCI || FSL_PQ_MDIO && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && FSL_SOC || GIANFAR && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && FSL_SOC || UCC_GETH && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && QUICC_ENGINE || MV643XX_ETH && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && (MV64X60 || PPC32 || PLAT_ORION) || XILINX_LL_TEMAC && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && (PPC || MICROBLAZE) || S6GMAC && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_1000 && XTENSA_VARIANT_S6000 || STMMAC_ETH && NETDEV_1000 && NETDEVICES && CPU_SUBTYPE_ST40 || PASEMI_MAC && NETDEVICES && NETDEV_10000 && PPC_PASEMI && PCI || OCTEON_ETHERNET && STAGING && !STAGING_EXCLUDE_BUILD && CPU_CAVIUM_OCTEON) selects PHYLIB which has unmet direct dependencies (!S390 && NET_ETHERNET)
      
      PHYLIB is used by non-10/100 mbit ethernet drivers, so change the dependencies
      to be NETDEVICES instead of NET_ETHERNET.
