6d9f239a1e net: '&' redux
I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and
stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of &
will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break
compilation.

So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy
handler, it was never needed in fact.

24f8b2385e net: increase receive packet quantum
This patch gets about 1.25% back on tbench regression.

My change to NAPI for multiqueue support changed the time limit on
network receive processing.  Under sustained loads like tbench, this
can cause the receiver to reschedule prematurely.

8ba25dad0a sch_netem: Replace ->requeue() method with open code
After removing netem classful functionality we are sure its inner
qdisc is tfifo, so we can replace qdisc->ops->requeue() method with
open code. After this patch there are no more ops->requeue() users.

The idea of this patch is by Patrick McHardy.

0220146411 sch_netem: Remove classful functionality
Patrick McHardy noticed that: "a lot of the functionality of netem
requires the inner tfifo anyways and rate-limiting is usually done
on top of netem. So I would suggest so either hard-wire the tfifo
qdisc or at least make the assumption that inner qdiscs are
work-conserving.", and later: "- a lot of other qdiscs still don't
work as inner qdiscs of netem [...]".

So, according to his suggestion, this patch removes classful options
of netem. The main reason of this change is to remove ops->requeue()
method, which is currently used only by netem.

c37ccc0d4e udp: add a missing smp_wmb() in udp_lib_get_port()
Corey Minyard spotted a missing memory barrier in udp_lib_get_port()

We need to make sure a reader cannot read the new 'sk->sk_next' value
and previous value of 'sk->sk_hash'. Or else, an item could be deleted
from a chain, and inserted into another chain. If new chain was empty
before the move, 'next' pointer is NULL, and lockless reader can
not detect it missed following items in original chain.

This patch is temporary, since we expect an upcoming patch
to introduce another way of handling the problem.

7e3a42a12c xfrm6: handling fragment
RFC4301 Section 7.1 says:

"7.1.  Tunnel Mode SAs that Carry Initial and Non-Initial Fragments

     All implementations MUST support tunnel mode SAs that are configured
     to pass traffic without regard to port field (or ICMP type/code or
     Mobility Header type) values.  If the SA will carry traffic for
     specified protocols, the selector set for the SA MUST specify the
     port fields (or ICMP type/code or Mobility Header type) as ANY.  An
     SA defined in this fashion will carry all traffic including initial
     and non-initial fragments for the indicated Local/Remote addresses
     and specified Next Layer protocol(s)."

But for IPv6, fragment is treated as a protocol.  This change catches
protocol transported in fragmented packet.  In IPv4, there is no
problem.

2083c4997b wireless: clean up regulatory ignore_request function
This function has a few WARNs that may eventually trigger
when an AP sends rogue beacons, those must be removed. Some
of the comments in the function are also inappropriate as
this function is concerned with the global hint, not a per-
wiphy thing (which a multidomain flag on a wiphy would imply).

I'm convinced that we don't need to do anything to implement
multi-domain capability as 802.11-2007 specifies it because
it makes only two things mandatory:
 * starting of BSS/IBSS must have country information
   (this can easily be done with a mac80211 patch)
 * a STA must adopt the country information (we already have
   the framework for this)

But we don't have anything implemented anyway for now.

4a68ec535e mac80211: inform userspace of probe/auth/assoc timeout
I noticed that when for some reason [1] the probe or auth times
out, wpa_supplicant doesn't realise this and only tries the next
AP when it runs into its own timeout, which is ten seconds, and
that's quite long. Fix this by making mac80211 notify userspace
that it didn't associate.

[1] my wrt350n in mixed B/G/HT mode often runs into this, maybe
it's because one of the antennas is broken off and for whatever
reason it decides to use that antenna to transmit the response
frames (auth, probe); I do see beacons fine so it's not totally
broken. Works fine in pure-G mode.
