Since commit 9dc274151a (tcp: fix ABC in tcp_slow_start()),
a nul snd_cwnd triggers an infinite loop in tcp_slow_start()
Avoid this infinite loop and log a one time error for further
analysis. FRTO code is suspected to cause this bug.

====================
here's a patch for net for the v3.8 release cycle. Alexander Stein noticed that
the c_can hardware has a fixed bit in the IFx_MASK2 register. His patch fixes
writing of this register by always setting this bit.

1) rhine_tx() should use dev_kfree_skb() not dev_kfree_skb_irq()
2) rhine_slow_event_task's NAPI triggering logic is racey, it
should just hit the interrupt mask register. This is the
same as commit 7dbb491878
("r8169: avoid NAPI scheduling delay.") made to fix the same
problem in the r8169 driver. From Francois Romieu.

====================
This is a small batch of fixes intended for the 3.8 stream...
There are two pulls from Johannes. Regarding mac80211, Johannes says:
"One fix from Dan for a possible memory overrun."
Regarding iwlwifi, Johannes says:
"I have one fix from Emmanuel reverting a previous fix that caused
more trouble than it's worth."
Along with those:
Arend van Spriel fixes a fatal error in brcsmac related to tx status processing.
Bing Zhao corrects a problem where mwifiex would fail to complete a scan
in the event of an IE processing error.
Larry Finger fixes a thinko in rtlwifi in which the wrong skb variable
was being used in some cases.
Rafał Miłecki fixes a thinko in an ID check in the bcma flash code.

On receiving the SYN-ACK, Fast Open checks icsk_retransmit for SYN
retransmission to detect SYN/data drops. But if F-RTO is disabled,
icsk_retransmit is reset at step D of tcp_fastretrans_alert() (
under tcp_ack()) before tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(). The fix is to use
total_retrans instead which accounts for SYN retransmission regardless
the use of F-RTO.

l2tp_ip6 is incorrectly using the IPv4-specific ip_cmsg_recv to handle
ancillary data. This means that socket options such as IPV6_RECVPKTINFO are
not honoured in userspace.
Convert l2tp_ip6 to use the IPv6-specific handler.

They will be created at output, if ever needed. This avoids creating
empty neighbor entries when TPROXYing/Forwarding packets for addresses
that are not even directly reachable.
Note that IPv4 already handles it this way. No neighbor entries are
created for local input.

A device sending 0 length frames as fast as it can has been
observed killing the host system due to the resulting memory
pressure.
Temporarily disable RX skb allocation and URB submission when
the current error ratio is high, preventing us from trying to
allocate an infinite number of skbs. Reenable as soon as we
are finished processing the done queue, allowing the device
to continue working after short error bursts.

A scan request is split into multiple scan commands queued in
scan_pending_q. Each scan command will be sent to firmware and
its response is handlded one after another.
If any error is detected while parsing IE in command response
buffer the remaining data will be ignored and error is returned.
We should check if there is any more scan commands pending in
the queue before returning error. This ensures that we will call
cfg80211_scan_done if this is the last scan command, or send
next scan command in scan_pending_q to firmware.

vmxnet3 fails to set netif_carrier_off on probe, meaning that when an interface
is opened the __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER bit is already cleared, and so
/sys/class/net/<ifname>/operstate remains in the unknown state. Correct this by
setting netif_carrier_off on probe, like other drivers do.
Also, while we're at it, lets remove the netif_carrier_ok checks from the
link_state_update function, as that check is atomically contained within the
netif_carrier_[on|off] functions anyway

In rare instances, memory errors have been detected in the internal packet
buffer memory on I217/I218 when stressed under certain environmental
conditions. Enable Error Correcting Code (ECC) in hardware to catch both
correctable and uncorrectable errors. Correctable errors will be handled
by the hardware. Uncorrectable errors in the packet buffer will cause the
packet to be received with an error indication in the buffer descriptor
causing the packet to be discarded. If the uncorrectable error is in the
descriptor itself, the hardware will stop and interrupt the driver
indicating the error. The driver will then reset the hardware in order to
clear the error and restart.
Both types of errors will be accounted for in statistics counters.

When bonding module is loaded with primary parameter and one decides to unset
primary slave using sysfs these settings are not preserved during bond device
restart. Primary slave is only unset once and it's not remembered in
bond->params structure. Below is example of recreation.
grep OPTS /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0
BONDING_OPTS="mode=active-backup miimon=100 primary=eth01"
grep "Primary Slave" /proc/net/bonding/bond0

We forbid polling, writing and reading when the file were detached, this may
complex the user in several cases:
- when guest pass some buffers to vhost/qemu and then disable some queues,
host/qemu needs to do its own cleanup on those buffers which is complex
sometimes. We can do this simply by allowing a user can still write to an
disabled queue. Write to an disabled queue will cause the packet pass to the
kernel and read will get nothing.
- align the polling behavior with macvtap which never fails when the queue is
created. This can simplify the polling errors handling of its user (e.g vhost)
We can simply achieve this by don't assign NULL to tfile->tun when detached.

Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues:
- vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll,
this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to
add itself to the waitqueue
- userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling
failed.
Solve this by:
- check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue
- report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value
will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend
After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it
will addressed by the next patch.
