( net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler )
We lost rx timestamping of packets received on accelerated vlans.
Effect is that tcpdump on real dev can show strange timings, since it gets rx timestamps
too late (ie at skb dequeueing time, not at skb queueing time)

When requesting all prl entries (kprl.addr == INADDR_ANY) and there are
more prl entries than there is space passed from userspace, the existing
code would always copy cmax+1 entries, which is more than can be handled.
This patch makes the kernel copy only exactly cmax entries.

Commit 2b85a34e91
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
opens a window in sock_wfree() where another cpu
might free the socket we are working on.
A fix is to call sk->sk_write_space(sk) while still
holding a reference on sk.

checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in
each and every implementation.

Consider the following step-by step:
1. A STA authenticates and associates with the AP and exchanges
traffic.
2. The STA reports to the AP that it is going to PS state.
3. Some time later the STA device goes to the stand-by mode (not only
its wi-fi card, but the device itself) and drops the association state
without sending a disassociation frame.
4. The STA device wakes up and begins authentication with an
Auth frame as it hasn't been authenticated/associated previously.
At the step 4 the AP "remembers" the STA and considers it is still in
the PS state, so the AP buffers frames, which it has to send to the STA.
But the STA isn't actually in the PS state and so it neither checks
TIM bits nor reports to the AP that it isn't power saving.
Because of that authentication/[re]association fails.
To fix authentication/[re]association stage of this issue, Auth, Assoc
Resp and Reassoc Resp frames are transmitted disregarding of STA's power
saving state.
N.B. This patch doesn't fix further data frame exchange after
authentication/[re]association. A patch in hostapd is required to fix
that.

The move away from having drivers assign wireless handlers,
in favour of making cfg80211 assign them, broke the sysfs
registration (the wireless/ dir went missing) because the
handlers are now assigned only after registration, which is
too late.
Fix this by special-casing cfg80211-based devices, all
of which are required to have an ieee80211_ptr, in the
sysfs code, and also using get_wireless_stats() to have
the same values reported as in procfs.

The wireless extensions have a copy_from_user to a local stack
array "essid", but both me and gcc have failed to find where
the bounds for this copy are located in the code.
This patch adds some basic sanity checks for the copy length
to make sure that we don't overflow the stack buffer.

Multiple problems were reported due to interaction
between wpa_supplicant and the wext compat code in
cfg80211, which appear to be due to it not getting
any bss pointer here when wpa_supplicant sets all
parameters -- do that now. We should still get the
bss after doing an extra scan, but that appears to
increase the time we need for connecting enough to
sometimes cause timeouts.

The sys_socketcall() function has a very clever system for the copy
size of its arguments. Unfortunately, gcc cannot deal with this in
terms of proving that the copy_from_user() is then always in bounds.
This is the last (well 9th of this series, but last in the kernel) such
case around.
With this patch, we can turn on code to make having the boundary provably
right for the whole kernel, and detect introduction of new security
accidents of this type early on.

There is a potential double-kfree in net/bridge/br_if.c. If br_fdb_insert
fails, then the kobject is put back (which calls kfree due to the kobject
release), and then kfree is called again on the net_bridge_port. This
patch fixes the crash.

This reverts commit 645069299a.
While the code does not actually break anything, it does not completely follow
RFC5214 yet. After talking back with Fred L. Templin, I agree that completing the
ISATAP specific RS/RA code, would pollute the kernel a lot with code that is better
implemented in userspace.
The kernel should not send RS packages for ISATAP at all.

netlink_unicast() calls kfree_skb even in the error case.
dcbnl calls netlink_unicast() which when it fails free's the

It seems recursion field from "struct ip_tunnel" is not anymore needed.
recursion prevention is done at the upper level (in dev_queue_xmit()),
since we use HARD_TX_LOCK protection for tunnels.
This avoids a cache line ping pong on "struct ip_tunnel" : This structure
should be now mostly read on xmit and receive paths.
