      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
       "Bug fixes galore, mostly in drivers as is often the case:
      
        1) USB gadget and cdc_eem drivers need adjustments to their frame size
           lengths in order to handle VLANs correctly.  From Ian Coolidge.
      
        2) TIPC and several network drivers erroneously call tasklet_disable
           before tasklet_kill, fix from Xiaotian Feng.
      
        3) r8169 driver needs to apply the WOL suspend quirk to more chipsets,
           fix from Cyril Brulebois.
      
        4) Fix multicast filters on RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_35 r8169 chips, from
           Nathan Walp.
      
        5) FDB netlink dumps should use RTM_NEWNEIGH as the message type, not
           zero.  From John Fastabend.
      
        6) Fix smsc95xx tx checksum offload on big-endian, from Steve
           Glendinning.
      
        7) __inet_diag_dump() needs to repsect and report the error value
           returned from inet_diag_lock_handler() rather than ignore it.
           Otherwise if an inet diag handler is not available for a particular
           protocol, we essentially report success instead of giving an error
           indication.  Fix from Cyrill Gorcunov.
      
        8) When the QFQ packet scheduler sees TSO/GSO packets it does not
           handle things properly, and in fact ends up corrupting it's
           datastructures as well as mis-schedule packets.  Fix from Paolo
           Valente.
      
        9) Fix oopser in skb_loop_sk(), from Eric Leblond.
      
        10) CXGB4 passes partially uninitialized datastructures in to FW
            commands, fix from Vipul Pandya.
      
        11) When we send unsolicited ipv6 neighbour advertisements, we should
            send them to the link-local allnodes multicast address, as per
            RFC4861.  Fix from Hannes Frederic Sowa.
      
        12) There is some kind of bug in the usbnet's kevent deferral
            mechanism, but more immediately when it triggers an uncontrolled
            stream of kernel messages spam the log.  Rate limit the error log
            message triggered when this problem occurs, as sending thousands
            of error messages into the kernel log doesn't help matters at all,
            and in fact makes further diagnosis more difficult.
      
            From Steve Glendinning.
      
        13) Fix gianfar restore from hibernation, from Wang Dongsheng.
      
        14) The netlink message attribute sizes are wrong in the ipv6 GRE
            driver, it was using the size of ipv4 addresses instead of ipv6
            ones :-) Fix from Nicolas Dichtel."

        1) Configuring a mix of static vs.  modular sparc64 crypto modules

           the device match table for these drivers once to fix the problem.

           usable in 32-bit tasks.  Essentially this involves providing 32-bit
           userspace with a way to use a 64-bit stack when it needs to.

           Niagara chips.  Use pause instruction when available to achieve
           this, otherwise use a benign instruction we know blocks the strand

      Just include the device ID stub into each driver source file so that

      Sparc32 already supported it, as a consequence of using the

      is rather trivial.
      
      This allows us to set ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE for all

      of/address: sparc: Declare of_address_to_resource() as an extern function for sparc again · 0bce04be
      Andreas Larsson authored
      This bug-fix makes sure that of_address_to_resource is defined extern for sparc
      so that the sparc-specific implementation of of_address_to_resource() is once
      again used when including include/linux/of_address.h in a sparc context. A
      number of drivers in mainline relies on this function working for sparc.
      
      The bug was introduced in a850a755
      
      , "of/address:
      add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF". Contrary to that commit title, the
      static inlines are added for !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS, and CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS is never
      defined for sparc. This is good behavior for the other functions in
      include/linux/of_address.h, as the extern functions defined in
      drivers/of/address.c only gets linked when OF_ADDRESS is configured. However,
      for of_address_to_resource there exists a sparc-specific implementation in
      arch/sparc/arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_common.c

      This adds sparc support for platform_get_irq that in the normal case use
      platform_get_resource() to get an irq. This standard approach fails for sparc as
      there are no resources of type IORESOURCE_IRQ for irqs for sparc.
      
      Cross platform drivers can then use this standard platform function and work on
      sparc instead of having to have a special case for sparc.

      gianfar: ethernet vanishes after restoring from hibernation · 103cdd1d
      Wang Dongsheng authored
      
      
      If a gianfar ethernet device is down prior to hibernating a
      system, it will no longer be present upon system restore.
      
      For example:
      
      	~# ifconfig eth0 down
      	~# echo disk > /sys/power/state
      
      	  <trigger a restore from hibernation>
      
      	~# ifconfig eth0 up
      	SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device
      
      This happens because the restore function bails out early upon
      finding devices that were not up at hibernation.  In doing so,
      it never gets to the netif_device_attach call at the end of
      the restore function.  Adding the netif_device_attach as done
      here also makes the gfar_restore code consistent with what is
      done in the gfar_resume code.

      when something goes wrong, a flood of these messages can be

      generally *help* the condition so this patch ratelimits the
      rate of their generation.
      
      There's an underlying problem in usbnet's kevent deferral
      mechanism which needs fixing, specifically that events *can*
      get dropped and not handled.  This patch doesn't address this,
      but just mitigates fallout caused by the current implemention.
