62b1a8ab9b net: remove skb_orphan_try()
Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior
unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets
pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full
qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically
throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming
sk_sndbuf is not too big)

We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in
dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain,
now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked
in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance
matters.

8876d6b5f8 net: Make linux/tcp.h C++ friendly (trivial)
I originally sent this patch to <trivial@kernel.org>, but Jiri Kosina did
not feel that this is fully appropriate for the trivial tree.

Using linux/tcp.h from C++ results in:

cat t.cc
#include <linux/tcp.h>
int main() { }

g++ -c t.cc

In file included from t.cc:1:
/usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: '__u32 __fswab32(__u32)' cannot appear in a constant-expression
/usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: a function call cannot appear in a constant-expression
...

Attached trivial patch fixes this problem.

Tested:
- the t.cc above compiles with g++ and
- the following program generates the same output before/after
  the patch:

#include <linux/tcp.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main ()
{
#define P(a) printf("%s: %08x\n", #a, (int)a)
 P(TCP_FLAG_CWR);
 P(TCP_FLAG_ECE);

ae82fdb140 module_param: stop double-calling parameters.
Commit 026cee0086 "params:
<level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module
parameters to level 0.  And we call those level 0 calls where we used
to, early in start_kernel().

We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled
module_params before the corresponding initcall.  Unfortunately level
0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice.

(Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does).

Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls.

300f786b26 c/r: prctl: add ability to get clear_tid_address
Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits.  This
functionality is used by pthread_join().

We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the
current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space.

Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore
pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored.

This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows
the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address.

This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.

A fix for commit b32dfe3771 ("c/r: prctl: add ability to set new
mm_struct::exe_file").

After removing mm->num_exe_file_vmas kernel keeps mm->exe_file until
final mmput(), it never becomes NULL while task is alive.

We can check for other mapped files in mm instead of checking
mm->num_exe_file_vmas, and mark mm with flag MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED in
order to forbid second changing of mm->exe_file.

This pull request came in before the merge window even opened, it got
delayed to after the merge window by me just wanting to make sure it had

Jan Beulich says that it's already made available for SLES and OpenSUSE

68e3e92620 Revert "mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocks"
This reverts commit 5ceb9ce6fe.

That commit seems to be the cause of the mm compation list corruption
issues that Dave Jones reported.  The locking (or rather, absense
there-of) is dubious, as is the use of the 'page' variable once it has
been found to be outside the pageblock range.

So revert it for now, we can re-visit this for 3.6.  If we even need to:
as Minchan Kim says, "The patch wasn't a bug fix and even test workload
was very theoretical".
