15d5dda623 cfg80211/nl80211: Add userspace authentication flag to mesh setup
During mesh setup, use NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH flag to create
a secure mesh and route management frames to userspace.

Also, NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY now returns a flag NL80211_SUPPORT_MESH_AUTH
if the wiphy's mesh implementation supports routing of mesh auth frames
to userspace.  This is useful for forward compatibility between old
kernels and new userspace tools.

4dd5ffe4fc net: Fix dev dev_ethtool_get_rx_csum() for forced NETIF_F_RXCSUM
dev_ethtool_get_rx_csum() won't report rx checksumming when it's not
changeable and driver is converted to hw_features and friends. Fix this.

(dev->hw_features & NETIF_F_RXCSUM) check is dropped - if the
ethtool_ops->get_rx_csum is set, then driver is not coverted, yet.

c261344d3c usbnet: use eth%d name for known ethernet devices
The documentation for the USB ethernet devices suggests that
only some devices are supposed to use usb0 as the network interface
name instead of eth0. The logic used there, and documented in
Kconfig for CDC is that eth0 will be used when the mac address
is a globally assigned one, but usb0 is used for the locally
managed range that is typically used on point-to-point links.

Unfortunately, this has caused a lot of pain on the smsc95xx
device that is used on the popular pandaboard without an
EEPROM to store the MAC address, which causes the driver to
call random_ether_address().

Obviously, there should be a proper MAC addressed assigned to
the device, and discussions are ongoing about how to solve
this, but this patch at least makes sure that the default
interface naming gets a little saner and matches what the
user can expect based on the documentation, including for
new devices.

The approach taken here is to flag whether a device might be a
point-to-point link with the new FLAG_POINTTOPOINT setting in
the usbnet driver_info. A driver can set both FLAG_POINTTOPOINT
and FLAG_ETHER if it is not sure (e.g. cdc_ether), or just one
of the two.  The usbnet framework only looks at the MAC address
for device naming if both flags are set, otherwise it trusts the
flag.

04f482faf5 connector: convert to synchronous netlink message processing
Commits 01a16b21 (netlink: kill eff_cap from struct netlink_skb_parms)
and c53fa1ed (netlink: kill loginuid/sessionid/sid members from struct
netlink_skb_parms) removed some members from struct netlink_skb_parms
that depend on the current context, all netlink users are now required
to do synchronous message processing.

connector however queues received messages and processes them in a work
queue, which is not valid anymore. This patch converts connector to do
synchronous message processing by invoking the registered callback handler
directly from the netlink receive function.

In order to avoid invoking the callback with connector locks held, a
reference count is added to struct cn_callback_entry, the reference
is taken when finding a matching callback entry on the device's queue_list
and released after the callback handler has been invoked.

c031235b39 atm/solos-pci: Don't flap VCs when carrier state changes
Don't flap VCs when carrier state changes; higher-level protocols
can detect loss of connectivity and act accordingly. This is more
consistent with how other network interfaces work.

We no longer use release_vccs() so we can delete it.

release_vccs() was duplicated from net/atm/common.c; make the
corresponding function exported, since other code duplicates it
and could leverage it if it were public.

7a635ea989 net/usb: Ethernet quirks for the LG-VL600 4G modem
This adds a driver for the CDC Ethernet part of this modem.  The
device's ID is blacklisted in cdc_ether.c and is white-listed in
this new driver because of the quirks needed to make it useful.
The modem's firmware exposes a CDC ACM port for modem control and a
CDC Ethernet port for network data.  The descriptors look fine but
both ports actually are some sort of multiplexers requiring non-
standard headers added/removed from every packet or they get
ignored.  All information is based on a usb traffic log from a
Windows machine.

On the Verizon 4G network I've seen speeds up to 1.1MB/s so far with
this driver, a speed-o-meter site reports 16.2Mbps/10.5Mbps.
Userspace scripts are required to talk to the CDC ACM port.

eec009548e net: Fix warnings caused by MAX_SKB_FRAGS change.
After commit a715dea3c8 ("net: Always
allocate at least 16 skb frags regardless of page size"), the value
of MAX_SKB_FRAGS can now take on either an "unsigned long" or an
"int" value.

This causes warnings like:

net/packet/af_packet.c: In function ‘tpacket_fill_skb’:
net/packet/af_packet.c:948: warning: format ‘%lu’ expects type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘int’

Fix by forcing the constant to be unsigned long, otherwise we have
a situation where the type of a system wide constant is variable.

a715dea3c8 net: Always allocate at least 16 skb frags regardless of page size
When analysing performance of the cxgb3 on a ppc64 box I noticed that
we weren't doing much GRO merging. It turns out we are limited by the
number of SKB frags:

#define MAX_SKB_FRAGS (65536/PAGE_SIZE + 2)

With a 4kB page size we have 18 frags, but with a 64kB page size we
only have 3 frags.

I ran a single stream TCP bandwidth test to compare the performance of
