In commit 44b8288308 (net_sched: pfifo_head_drop problem), we fixed
a problem with pfifo_head drops that incorrectly decreased
sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets
Several qdiscs (CHOKe, SFQ, pfifo_head, ...) are able to drop a
previously enqueued packet, and bstats cannot be changed, so
bstats/rates are not accurate (over estimated)
This patch changes the qdisc_bstats updates to be done at dequeue() time
instead of enqueue() time. bstats counters no longer account for dropped
frames, and rates are more correct, since enqueue() bursts dont have
effect on dequeue() rate.

Currently tools like ip and ifconfig report incorrect state for cxgb4
interfaces that are up but do not have link and do so until first link
establishment. This is because the initial netif_carrier_off call is
before register_netdev and it needs to be after to be fully effective.
Fix this by moving netif_carrier_off into .ndo_open.

commit 0363466866 (net offloading: Convert checksums to use
centrally computed features.) mistakenly swapped can_checksum_protocol()
arguments.
This broke IPv6 on bnx2 for instance, on NIC without TCPv6 checksum
offloads.

In netif_skb_features() we return only the features that are valid for vlans
if we have a vlan packet. However, we should not mask out NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX
since it enables transmission of vlan tags and is obviously valid.

- tx_fixup() can be called from either timer callback or from xmit()
in usbnet, so spinlock is added to avoid concurrency-related problem.
- minor correction due to checkpatch warning for some line over 80

In drivers/net/ns83820.c::ns83820_init_one() we dynamically allocate
memory via alloc_etherdev(). We then call PRIV() on the returned storage
which is 'return netdev_priv()'. netdev_priv() takes the pointer it is
passed and adds 'ALIGN(sizeof(struct net_device), NETDEV_ALIGN)' to it and
returns it. Then we test the resulting pointer for NULL, which it is
unlikely to be at this point, and later dereference it. This will go bad
if alloc_etherdev() actually returned NULL.
This patch reworks the code slightly so that we test for a NULL pointer
(and return -ENOMEM) directly after calling alloc_etherdev().

When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback
interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a
printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set.
This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as
part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of
vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless
"lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg.
It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the
use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most
sensible solution.

Common init used to be called by the driver when the first port comes up, mainly to reset and reload external PHY microcode.
However, in case management driver is active on the other port, traffic would halted. So limit the common init to be done only once after POR.

The power detector adc offset calibration has to be done
on 4 minutes interval (longcal * pa_skip_count). But the commit
"ath9k_hw: fix a noise floor calibration related race condition"
makes the PA calibration executed more frequently beased on
nfcal_pending value. Running PAOffset calibration lesser than
longcal interval doesn't help anything and the worse part is that
it causes NF load timeouts and RX deaf conditions.
In a very noisy environment, where the distance b/w AP & station
is ~10 meter and running a downlink udp traffic with frequent
background scan causes "Timeout while waiting for nf to load:
AR_PHY_AGC_CONTROL=0x40d1a" and moves the chip into deaf state.
This issue was originaly reported in Android platform where
the network-manager application does bgscan more frequently
on AR9271 chips. (AR9285 family usb device).
