cd0893369c neigh: Store hash shift instead of mask.
And mask the hash function result by simply shifting
down the "->hash_shift" most significant bits.

Currently which bits we use is arbitrary since jhash
produces entropy evenly across the whole hash function
result.

But soon we'll be using universal hashing functions,
and in those cases more entropy exists in the higher
bits than the lower bits, because they use multiplies.

a6686f2f38 skbuff: skb supports zero-copy buffers
This patch adds userspace buffers support in skb shared info. A new
struct skb_ubuf_info is needed to maintain the userspace buffers
argument and index, a callback is used to notify userspace to release
the buffers once lower device has done DMA (Last reference to that skb
has gone).

If there is any userspace apps to reference these userspace buffers,
then these userspaces buffers will be copied into kernel. This way we
can prevent userspace apps from holding these userspace buffers too long.

Use destructor_arg to point to the userspace buffer info; a new tx flags
SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY is added for zero-copy buffer check.

e5497d766a cfg80211/nl80211: support GTK rekey offload
In certain circumstances, like WoWLAN scenarios,
devices may implement (partial) GTK rekeying on
the device to avoid waking up the host for it.

In order to successfully go through GTK rekeying,
the KEK, KCK and the replay counter are required.

Add API to let the supplicant hand the parameters
to the driver which may store it for future GTK
rekey operations.

Note that, of course, if GTK rekeying is done by
the device, the EAP frame must not be passed up
to userspace, instead a rekey event needs to be
sent to let userspace update its replay counter.

830af02f24 mac80211: allow driver to iterate keys
When in suspend/wowlan, devices might implement crypto
offload differently (more features), and might require
reprogramming keys for the WoWLAN (as it is the case
for Intel devices that use another uCode image). Thus
allow the driver to iterate all keys in this context.

5b7f762674 dcbnl: Add CEE notification
This patch add an unsolicited notification of the DCBX negotiated
parameters for the CEE flavor of the DCBX protocol. The notification
message is identical to the aggregated CEE get operation and holds all
the pertinent local and peer information. The notification routine is
exported so it can be invoked by drivers supporting an embedded DCBX
stack.

37cf4d1a9b dcbnl: Aggregated CEE GET operation
The following couple of patches add dcbnl an unsolicited notification of
the the DCB configuration for the CEE flavor of the DCBX protocol. This
is useful when the user-mode DCB client is not responsible for
conducting and resolving the DCBX negotiation (either because the DCBX
stack is embedded in the HW or the negotiation is handled by another
agent in the host), but still needs to get the negotiated parameters.
This functionality already exists for the IEEE flavor of the DCBX
protocol and these patches add it to the older CEE flavor.

The first patch extends the CEE attribute GET operation to include not
only the peer information, but also all the pertinent local
configuration (negotiated parameters). The second patch adds and export
a CEE specific notification routine.

dc99f60069 packet: Add fanout support.
Fanouts allow packet capturing to be demuxed to a set of AF_PACKET
sockets.  Two fanout policies are implemented:

1) Hashing based upon skb->rxhash

2) Pure round-robin

An AF_PACKET socket must be fully bound before it tries to add itself
to a fanout.  All AF_PACKET sockets trying to join the same fanout
must all have the same bind settings.

Fanouts are identified (within a network namespace) by a 16-bit ID.
The first socket to try to add itself to a fanout with a particular
ID, creates that fanout.  When the last socket leaves the fanout
(which happens only when the socket is closed), that fanout is
destroyed.

Commit 0e34e93177
"(netpoll: add generic support for bridge and bonding devices)"
added the symbol more than a year ago with the promise of "future use".

957c665f37 ipv6: Don't put artificial limit on routing table size.
IPV6, unlike IPV4, doesn't have a routing cache.

Routing table entries, as well as clones made in response
to route lookup requests, all live in the same table.  And
all of these things are together collected in the destination
cache table for ipv6.

This means that routing table entries count against the garbage
collection limits, even though such entries cannot ever be reclaimed
and are added explicitly by the administrator (rather than being
created in response to lookups).

Therefore it makes no sense to count ipv6 routing table entries
against the GC limits.

Add a DST_NOCOUNT destination cache entry flag, and skip the counting
if it is set.  Use this flag bit in ipv6 when adding routing table
entries.
