      MIPS: Lantiq: Fix mask of GPE frequency · ba735155
      Hauke Mehrtens authored
      
      
      The hardware documentation says bit 11:10 are used for the GPE
      frequency selection. Fix the mask in the define to match these bits.

      MIPS: Return -ENODEV from weak implementation of rtc_mips_set_time · edb6fa1a
      Luuk Paulussen authored
      
      
      The sync_cmos_clock function in kernel/time/ntp.c first tries to update
      the internal clock of the cpu by calling the "update_persistent_clock64"
      architecture specific function.  If this returns -ENODEV, it then tries
      to update an external RTC using "rtc_set_ntp_time".
      
      On the mips architecture, the weak implementation of the underlying
      function would return 0 if it wasn't overridden.  This meant that the
      sync_cmos_clock function would never try to update an external RTC
      (if both CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE and CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC are
      configured)
      
      Returning -ENODEV instead, means that an external RTC will be tried.

      Linus Walleij authored
      
      
      When trying to get a regulator we may get deferred and we see
      this noise:
      
      smsc911x 1b800000.ethernet-ebi2 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized):
         couldn't get regulators -517
      
      Then the driver continues anyway. Which means that the regulator
      may not be properly retrieved and reference counted, and may be
      switched off in case noone else is using it.
      
      Fix this by returning silently on deferred probe and let the
      system work it out.

      ibmveth: set correct gso_size and gso_type · 7b596738
      Thomas Falcon authored
      
      
      This patch is based on an earlier one submitted
      by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message:
      
      "We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the
      same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was
      enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the
      one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly.
      
      We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size
      which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is
      used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large,
      it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer
      was completely empty."
      
      We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries
      environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum
      field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum
      offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS.
      
      Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer.
      This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

      Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
       "Several fixes to the DSM (ACPI device specific method) marshaling
        implementation.
      
        I consider these urgent enough to send for 4.9 consideration since
        they fix the kernel's handling of ARS (Address Range Scrub) commands.
        Especially for platforms without machine-check-recovery capabilities,
        successful execution of ARS commands enables the platform to
        potentially break out of an infinite reboot problem if a media error
        is present in the boot path. There is also a one line fix for a
        device-dax read-only mapping regression.
      
        Commits 9a901f54 ("acpi, nfit: fix extended status translations
        for ACPI DSMs") and 325896ff ("device-dax: fix private mapping
        restriction, permit read-only") are true regression fixes for changes
        introduced this cycle.
      
        Commit efda1b5d ("acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status
        output length handling") fixes the kernel's handling of zero-length
        results, this never would have worked in the past, but we only just
        recently discovered a BIOS implementation that emits this arguably
        spec non-compliant result.
      
        The remaining two commits are additional fall out from thinking
        through the implications of a zero / truncated length result of the
        ARS Status command.
      
        In order to mitigate the risk that these changes introduce yet more
        regressions they are backstopped by a new unit test in commit
        a7de92da ("tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()") that
        mocks up inputs to acpi_nfit_ctl()"
