Each net_device contains address family specific data such as
per device settings and statistics. We already expose this data
via procfs/sysfs and partially netlink.
The netlink method requires the requester to send one RTM_GETLINK
request for each address family it wishes to receive data of
and then merge this data itself.
This patch implements a new API which combines all address family
specific link data in a new netlink attribute IFLA_AF_SPEC.
IFLA_AF_SPEC contains a sequence of nested attributes, one for each
address family which in turn defines the structure of its own
attribute. Example:
[IFLA_AF_SPEC] = {
[AF_INET] = {
[IFLA_INET_CONF] = ...,
},
[AF_INET6] = {
[IFLA_INET6_FLAGS] = ...,
[IFLA_INET6_CONF] = ...,
}
}
The API also allows for address families to implement a function
which parses the IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute sent by userspace to
implement address family specific link options.

This patch helps clarify documentation for
net.ipv4.igmp_max_memberships by providing a formula for
calculating the maximum number of multicast groups that can be
subscribed to, plus defining the theoretical limit.

The SELinux netfilter hooks just return NF_DROP if they drop a packet. We
want to signal that a drop in this hook is a permanant fatal error and is not
transient. If we do this the error will be passed back up the stack in some
places and applications will get a faster interaction that something went
wrong.

The current tcp_connect code completely ignores errors from sending an skb.
This makes sense in many situations (like -ENOBUFFS) but I want to be able to
immediately fail connections if they are denied by the SELinux netfilter hook.
Netfilter does not normally return ECONNREFUSED when it drops a packet so we
respect that error code as a final and fatal error that can not be recovered.

SELinux would like to pass certain fatal errors back up the stack. This patch
implements the generic netfilter support for this functionality.

With enabling CONFIG_PCI_MSI, e1000e could work in MSI/MSI-X IRQ mode,
and netpoll controller didn't deal with those IRQ modes on e1000e.
This patch add the handling MSI/MSI-X IRQ modes to netpoll controller,
so that netconsole could work with those IRQ modes.

The driver can fail initializing the hardware when manageability firmware
is performing concurrent MDIO operations because the hardware semaphore
scheme to prevent concurrent operations between software and firmware is
incorrect for 82574/82583. Instead of using the SWSM register, the driver
should be using the EXTCNF_CTRL register. A software mutex is also added
to prevent simultaneous software threads from performing similar concurrent
accesses.

SerDes Link detection on certain 82571 mezzanine cards can fail when the
link is forced, the link partner does not recognize forced link and the
link partner sends null code words. Detect the null code words and return
to auto-negotiation state which causes the link partner to begin responding
with valid code words. Within a reasonable interval the link will finally
settle as forced by both partners.

The driver is calling netif_carrier_off and netif_tx_stop_all_queues
before the netdevice is registered which causes an Oops. Move call
to netif_carrier_off after the netdevice is registered and remove
call to netif_tx_stop_all_queues because there aren't any TX
queues yet.
