When a new dst is used to send a frame, neigh_resolve_output() tries to
associate an struct hh_cache to this dst, calling neigh_hh_init() with
the neigh rwlock write locked.
Most of the time, hh_cache is already known and linked into neighbour,
so we find it and increment its refcount.
This patch changes the logic so that we call neigh_hh_init() with
neighbour lock read locked only, so that fast path can be run in
parallel by concurrent cpus.
This brings part of the speedup we got with commit c7d4426a98
(introduce DST_NOCACHE flag) for non cached dsts, even for cached ones,
removing one of the contention point that routers hit on multiqueue
enabled machines.
Further improvements would need to use a seqlock instead of an rwlock to
protect neigh->ha[], to not dirty neigh too often and remove two atomic
ops.

The current code works like this:
int garbage, status;
socklen_t len = sizeof(status);
/* enable pipe */
setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage));
/* disable pipe */
setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage));
/* get status */
getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len);
...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch
merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option,
before Linux 2.6.37 gets out:
int status;
socklen_t len = sizeof(status);
/* enable pipe */
status = 1;
setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status));
/* disable pipe */
status = 0;
setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status));
/* get status */
getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len);
This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.

In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we
drop it before it enters protocol stack :
- softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat)
- bad vlan tag (not accounted)
- unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted)
We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level,
and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so
that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev)
This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped
accounting), thus reverting it.

With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.
However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling. That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.
Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.
So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.
Future fixups:
- move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
belongs.
- get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
(called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
for other reasons.

For RPS, we create a kobject for each RX queue based on the number of
queues passed to alloc_netdev_mq(). However, drivers generally do not
determine the numbers of hardware queues to use until much later, so
this usually represents the maximum number the driver may use and not
the actual number in use.
For TX queues, drivers can update the actual number using
netif_set_real_num_tx_queues(). Add a corresponding function for RX
queues, netif_set_real_num_rx_queues().

Fixes kernel bugzilla #16603
tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write
zero bytes, for example.
There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works. It
wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return
value.
However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and
thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines). So it could trigger
false-positives on 64-bit as written. So fix it to use 'long'.

This patch adds a workaround for an IOMMU BIOS problem to
the AMD IOMMU driver. The result of the bug is that the
IOMMU does not execute commands anymore when the system
comes out of the S3 state resulting in system failure. The
bug in the BIOS is that is does not restore certain hardware
specific registers correctly. This workaround reads out the
contents of these registers at boot time and restores them
on resume from S3. The workaround is limited to the specific
IOMMU chipset where this problem occurs.

ARM needs to clip the dma coherent mask for dmabounce devices. This
restores the old trick.
Note that strictly speaking, the DMA API doesn't allow architectures to do
such but I'm not sure it's worth adding the new API to set the dma mask
that allows architectures to clip it.
