If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler
can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it
even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop.
So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths,
use MAC_FMT et al. instead.
As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to
handle this better, but that is a change to an interface
used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated
carefully. This here is thus the less risky fix for
2.6.25

My previous section fix only turned one section problem into another

The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq are
more robust for comparing jiffies against other values.
So use the time_after() macro, defined in linux/jiffies.h, which deals with
wrapping correctly.

* missing braces in !readl(...) & ...
* trivial endianness annotations
* in olympic_arb_cmd() the loop collecting fragments of
packet is b0rken on big-endian - we have
(next_ptr && (buf_ptr=olympic_priv->olympic_lap + ntohs(next_ptr)))
as condition and it should have swab16(), not ntohs() - it's host-endian
byteswapped, not big-endian. So if we get more than one fragment on big-endian
host, we get screwed.
This ntohs() got missed back when the rest of those had been switched
to swab16() in 2.4.0-test2-pre1 - at a guess, nobody had hit fragmented
packets during the testing of PPC fixes.
PS: Ken Aaker cc'd on assumption that he is the same guy who'd done the
original set of PPC fixes in olympic

Same story as with olympic - htons(readw()) when swab16(readw()) is needed,
missing conversions to le32 when dealing with shared descriptors, etc.
Olympic got those fixes in 2.4.0-test2, 3c359 didn't.

It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it. The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

Replacing accesses to dev->priv to netdev_priv(dev). The replacment
is safe when netdev_priv is used to access a private structure that is
right next to the net_device structure in memory.
Cf http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.development.system/browse_thread/thread/de19321bcd94dbb8/0d74a4adcd6177bd
This is the case when the net_device structure was allocated with
a call to alloc_netdev or one of its derivative.
Here is an excerpt of the semantic patch that performs the transformation
@ rule1 @
type T;
struct net_device *dev;
@@
dev =
(
alloc_netdev
|
alloc_etherdev
|
alloc_trdev
)
(sizeof(T), ...)
@ rule1bis @
struct net_device *dev;
expression E;
@@
dev->priv = E
@ rule2 depends on rule1 && !rule1bis @
struct net_device *dev;
type rule1.T;
@@
- (T*) dev->priv
+ netdev_priv(dev)
PS: I have performed the same transformation on the whole kernel
and it affects around 70 files, most of them in drivers/net/.
Should I split my patch for each subnet directories ? (wireless/, wan/, etc)
Thanks to Thomas Surrel for helping me refining my semantic patch.

This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.
Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.
