77a538d5aa ipv4: fix sysctl documentation of time related values
These sysctl values are time related and all use the same routine
(proc_dointvec_jiffies) that internally converts from seconds to jiffies.
The code is fine, the documentation is just wrong.

f471f92339 s2io: fix documentation about intr_type
The documentation for intr_type module parameter of the s2io driver is
not consistent with the code. The comments in drivers/net/s2io.c are
OK, but Documentation/networking/s2io.txt is wrong.

Pointed out by Andrew Hecox.

f62220d3a9 phylib: Add support for board-level PHY fixups
Sometimes the specific interaction between the platform and the PHY
requires special handling.  For instance, to change where the PHY's
clock input is, or to add a delay to account for latency issues in the
data path.  We add a mechanism for registering a callback with the PHY
Lib to be called on matching PHYs when they are brought up, or reset.

b8599d2070 [DCCP]: Support for server holding timewait state
This adds a socket option and signalling support for the case where the server
holds timewait state on closing the connection, as described in RFC 4340, 8.3.

Since holding timewait state at the server is the non-usual case, it is enabled
via a socket option. Documentation for this socket option has been added.

The setsockopt statement has been made resilient against different possible cases
of expressing boolean `true' values using a suggestion by Ian McDonald.

Thanks dave, herbert, gerrit, andi and other people for your
discussion about this problem.

UdpInDatagrams can be confusing because it counts packets that
might be dropped later.
Move UdpInDatagrams into recvmsg() as allowed by the RFC.
