Matthew Garrett c22ab33290 kmsg_dump: don't run on non-error paths by default
Since commit 04c6862c05 ("kmsg_dump: add kmsg_dump() calls to the
reboot, halt, poweroff and emergency_restart paths"), kmsg_dump() gets
run on normal paths including poweroff and reboot.

This is less than ideal given pstore implementations that can only
represent single backtraces, since a reboot may overwrite a stored oops
before it's been picked up by userspace.  In addition, some pstore
backends may have low performance and provide a significant delay in
reboot as a result.

This patch adds a printk.always_kmsg_dump kernel parameter (which can also
be changed from userspace).  Without it, the code will only be run on
failure paths rather than on normal paths.  The option can be enabled in
environments where there's a desire to attempt to audit whether or not a
reboot was cleanly requested or not.

Paul Mackerras 4b32da2bcf ppp: Replace uses of <linux/if_ppp.h> with <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>
Since all that include/linux/if_ppp.h does is #include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>,
this replaces the occurrences of #include <linux/if_ppp.h> with
#include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>.

It also corrects an error in Documentation/networking/l2tp.txt, where
it referenced include/linux/if_ppp.h as the source of some definitions
that are actually now defined in include/linux/if_pppol2tp.h.

Paul Mackerras bf7daebb9f ppp: Move ioctl definitions from if_ppp.h to new ppp-ioctl.h
This moves the definitions of the ioctls, constants and structures
relating to the ppp_generic interface to userspace out from if_ppp.h
to a new file, ppp-ioctl.h.  The new file has my copyright since I
designed and implemented the ppp_generic interface in the late 1990s.
None of the contents of this file comes from the original if_ppp.h
published by Carnegie Mellon University.

Of the remainder of if_ppp.h, only the PPP_MTU definition was being
used, and this replaces the uses of it with PPP_MRU (which is identical).
Therefore, this replaces the entire file with the single line

#include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>

which clearly doesn't contain any CMU code.  Thus I have removed the
CMU copyright notice with its problematic advertising clause, and in
fact since it's only one trivial line I have not added any other
copyright notice.

Ben Greear 5e0c03c8cd net: Support RX-ALL feature flag.
This flag requests that network devices pass all
received frames up the stack, even ones with errors
such as invalid FCS (frame check sum).  This will
allow sniffers to see bad packets and perhaps
give the user some idea how to fix the problem.

Johannes Berg 95de817b90 cfg80211: stop tracking authenticated state
To track authenticated state seems to have been
a design mistake in cfg80211. It is possible to
have out of band authentication (FT), tracking
multiple authentications caused more problems
than it ever helped, and the implementation in
mac80211 is too complex.

Remove all this complexity, and let userspace
do whatever it wants to, mac80211 can deal with
that just fine. Association is still tracked of
course, but authentication no longer is. Local
auth state changes are thus no longer of value,
so ignore them completely.

This will also help implement SAE -- asking the
driver to do an authentication is now almost
equivalent to sending an authentication frame,
with the exception of shared key authentication
which is still handled completely.
