The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.
The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.
Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.
IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.
Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

One point is to have less places where we actually need tty pointer.
The other is that low_latency is bound to buffer processing and
buffers are now in tty_port. So it makes sense to move low_latency to
tty_port too.

commit e49cc34f introduced an unconditional IRQ_HANDLED return in be_intx()
to workaround Lancer and BE2 HW issues. This is bad as it prevents the kernel
from detecting interrupt storms due to broken HW.
The BE2/Lancer HW issues are:
1) In Lancer, there is no means for the driver to detect if the interrupt
belonged to device, other than counting and notifying events.
2) In Lancer de-asserting INTx takes a while, causing the INTx irq handler
to be called multiple times till the de-assert happens.
3) In BE2, we see an occasional interrupt even when EQs are unarmed.
Issue (1) can cause the notified events to be orphaned, if NAPI was already
running.
This patch fixes this issue by scheduling NAPI only if it is not scheduled
already. Doing this also takes care of possible events_get() race that may be
caused due to issue (2) and (3). Also, IRQ_HANDLED is returned only the first
time zero events are detected.
(Thanks Ben H. for the feedback and suggestions.)

Reference count leaking of both module and sock were found:
- When a detached file were closed, its sock refcnt from device were not
released, solving this by add the sock_put().
- The module were hold or drop unconditionally in TUNSETPERSIST, which means we
if we set the persist flag for N times, we need unset it for another N
times. Solving this by only hold or drop an reference when there's a flag
change and also drop the reference count when the persist device is deleted.

Michael points out that even after Stefan's fix the TUNSETIFF is still allowed
to create a new tap device. This because we only check tfile->tun but the
tfile->detached were introduced. Fix this by failing early in tun_set_iff() if
the file is detached. After this fix, there's no need to do the check again in
tun_set_iff(), so this patch removes it.

It is werid that qlge driver supports NETIF_F_TSO6 but
not NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM. This also causes some kernel warning [1]
when VLAN device setups on a qlge interface.
I think the qlge hardware doesn't support NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM,
so we have to just remove the NETIF_F_TSO6 flag.
After this patch, the TCP/IPv6 traffic becomes normal again,
no kernel warnings any more.
NOTE: I only tested it on 2.6.32 kernel, even if the upstream
kernel could fix this automatically (it is hard to track NETIF*
flags), removing it is also safe.

This driver is used on Microblaze and will be used
on Arm Zynq.
Microblaze doesn't define NO_IRQ and no IRQ is 0.
Arm still uses NO_IRQ as -1 and there is no option
to connect IRQ to irq 0.
That's why <= 0 is only one option how to find out
undefined IRQ.

As part of the previous driver unload flow, whenever bnx2x is
loaded after the UNDI driver it closes all Rx traffic.
However, this leads to management traffic also being stopped until
the network interface associated with one of its functions gets loaded.
To remedy this, management traffic is re-opened once the 'cleaning'
after the previous driver ends.

When allocating Tx queues, if for some reason
(e.g., lack of memory) allocation fails, driver will incorrectly

This patch repositions all pointers in such a case to point at

be used correctly when accessing them.

Commit 70ac618c07 ("ptp: fixup Kconfig for two PHC drivers.") removed all
dependencies for the blackfin hardware time-stamping Kconfig entry. Hardware
time-stamping is only available on BF518 though. Since the Kconfig entry is
'default y', just updateing your kernel source and running `make defconfig` will
result in the the following build errors:
drivers/net/ethernet/adi/bfin_mac.c:694: error: implicit declaration of function ‘bfin_read_EMAC_PTP_CTL’
drivers/net/ethernet/adi/bfin_mac.c:702: error: implicit declaration of function ‘bfin_write_EMAC_PTP_FV3’
drivers/net/ethernet/adi/bfin_mac.c:712: error: implicit declaration of function ‘bfin_write_EMAC_PTP_CTL’
drivers/net/ethernet/adi/bfin_mac.c:717: error: implicit declaration of function ‘bfin_write_EMAC_PTP_FOFF’
...
This patch adds back the dependency on BF518, and since it does not make sense
to expose this config option when the blackfin MAC driver is not enabled also
restore the dependency on BFIN_MAC.

At the moment, we check owner when we enable queue in tun.
This seems redundant and will break some valid uses
where fd is passed around: I think TUNSETOWNER is there
to prevent others from attaching to a persistent device not
owned by them. Here the fd is already attached,
enabling/disabling queue is more like read/write.

Multiqueue tun devices support detaching a tun_file from its tun_struct
and re-attaching at a later point in time. This allows users to disable
a specific queue temporarily.
ioctl(TUNSETIFF) allows the user to specify the network interface to
attach by name. This means the user can attempt to attach to interface
"B" after detaching from interface "A".
The driver is not designed to support this so check we are re-attaching
to the right tun_struct. Failure to do so may lead to oops.

Recent versions of udev cause synchronous firmware loading from the
probe routine to fail because the request to user space would time
out. The original fix for b43 (commit 6b6fa58) moved the firmware
load from the probe routine to a work queue, but it still used synchronous
firmware loading. This method is OK when b43 is built as a module;
however, it fails when the driver is compiled into the kernel.
This version changes the code to load the initial firmware file
using request_firmware_nowait(). A completion event is used to
hold the work queue until that file is available. This driver
reads several firmware files - the remainder can be read synchronously.
On some test systems, the async read fails; however, a following synch
read works, thus the async failure falls through to the sync try.

This adds support for the 60 GHz 802.11ad Wilocity card
through a new driver, wil6210. Wilocity implemented the
firmware, QCA maintains the device driver.
Currently supported:
- STA: with security
- AP: limited to 1 connected STA, security disabled
- Monitor: due to a hardware/firmware limitation
either control or non-control frames are monitored
Using a STA and AP with this drive, one can assemble
a fully functional BSS. Throughput of 1.2Gbps is achieved
with iperf.
The wil6210 cards have on-board flash memory for the
firmware, the cards comes pre-flashed and no firmware
download is required.
