We forgot to send up SCTP_SENDER_DRY_EVENT notification when
user app subscribes to this event, and there is no data to be
sent or retransmit.
This is required by the Socket API and used by the DTLS/SCTP
implementation.

Current tcp/udp/sctp global memory limits are not taking into account
hugepages allocations, and allow 50% of ram to be used by buffers of a
single protocol [ not counting space used by sockets / inodes ...]
Lets use nr_free_buffer_pages() and allow a default of 1/8 of kernel ram
per protocol, and a minimum of 128 pages.
Heavy duty machines sysadmins probably need to tweak limits anyway.

Some BIOSes will reset the Intel MISC_ENABLE MSR (specifically the
XD_DISABLE bit) when resuming from S3, which can interact poorly with
ebba638ae7. In 32bit PAE mode, this can
lead to a fault when EFER is restored by the kernel wakeup routines,
due to it setting the NX bit for a CPU that (thanks to the BIOS reset)
now incorrectly thinks it lacks the NX feature. (64bit is not affected
because it uses a common CPU bring-up that specifically handles the
XD_DISABLE bit.)
The need for MISC_ENABLE being restored so early is specific to the S3
resume path. Normally, MISC_ENABLE is saved in save_processor_state(),
but this happens after the resume header is created, so just reproduce
the logic here. (acpi_suspend_lowlevel() creates the header, calls
do_suspend_lowlevel, which calls save_processor_state(), so the saved
processor context isn't available during resume header creation.)

locks_alloc_lock() assumed that the allocated struct file_lock is
already initialized to zero members. This is only true for the first
allocation of the structure, after reuse some of the members will have
random values.
This will for example result in passing random fl_start values to
userspace in fuse for FL_FLOCK locks, which is an information leak at
best.
Fix by reinitializing those members which may be non-zero after freeing.

660e34cebf x86: reorder reboot method

my Acer Aspire One hangs on reboot. It appears that its ACPI method
for rebooting is broken. The attached patch adds a quirk so that the
machine will reboot via the BIOS.
[ hpa: verified that the ACPI control on this machine is just plain broken. ]

If the rx ring is completely empty, then the device may never fire an rx
interrupt. Unfortunately, the rx interrupt is what triggers populating the
rx ring with fresh buffers, so this will cause networking to lock up.
This patch replenishes the skb in recv descriptor as soon as it is
peeled off while processing rx completions. If the skb/buffer
allocation fails, existing one is recycled and the packet in hand is
dropped. This way none of the RX desc is ever left empty, thus avoiding
starvation

As is_multicast_ether_addr returns true on broadcast packets as
well, we need to explicitly exclude broadcast packets so that
they're always flooded. This wasn't an issue before as broadcast
packets were considered to be an unregistered multicast group,
which were always flooded. However, as we now only flood such
packets to router ports, this is no longer acceptable.
