When adding a module that depends on another one, we used to create a
one-way list of "modules_which_use_me", so that module unloading could
see who needs a module.
It's actually quite simple to make that list go both ways: so that we
not only can see "who uses me", but also see a list of modules that are
"used by me".
In fact, we always wanted that list in "module_unload_free()": when we
unload a module, we want to also release all the other modules that are
used by that module. But because we didn't have that list, we used to
first iterate over all modules, and then iterate over each "used by me"
list of that module.
By making the list two-way, we simplify module_unload_free(), and it
allows for some trivial fixes later too.

xfrm triggers a warning if dst_pop() drops a refcount
on a noref dst. This patch changes dst_pop() to
skb_dst_pop(). skb_dst_pop() drops the refcnt only
on a refcounted dst. Also we don't clone the child
dst_entry, so it is not refcounted and we can use
skb_dst_set_noref() in xfrm_output_one().

task_struct->pesonality is "unsigned int", but sys_personality() paths use
"unsigned long pesonality". This means that every assignment or
comparison is not right. In particular, if this argument does not fit
into "unsigned int" __set_personality() changes the caller's personality
and then sys_personality() returns -EINVAL.
Turn this argument into "unsigned int" and avoid overflows. Obviously,
this is the user-visible change, we just ignore the upper bits. But this
can't break the sane application.
There is another thing which can confuse the poorly written applications.
User-space thinks that this syscall returns int, not long. This means
that the returned value can be negative and look like the error code. But
note that libc won't be confused and thus errno won't be set, and with
this patch the user-space can never get -1 unless sys_personality() really
fails. And, most importantly, the negative RET != -1 is only possible if
that app previously called personality(RET).

Some hardware allow extended filtering of ARP frames not intended for
the host. To perform such filtering, the hardware needs to know the current
IP address(es) of the host, bound to its interface.
Add support for ARP filtering to mac80211 by adding a new op to the driver
interface, allowing to configure the current IP addresses. This op is called
upon association with the currently configured address(es), and when
associated whenever the IP address(es) change.
This patch adds configuration of IPv4 addresses only, as IPv6 addresses don't
need ARP filtering.

When sending action frames, we want to verify

checking the channel type in addition can get in
the way, since the channel type could change on
the fly during an association, and it's not
useful to have the channel type anyway since it
has no effect on the transmission. Therefore,
make it optional to specify so that if wanted,
it can still be checked, but is not required.

Implement ata_scsi_unlock_native_capacity() which will be called
through SCSI layer when block layer notices that partitions on a
device extend beyond the end of the device. It requests EH to unlock
HPA, waits for completion and returns the current device capacity.
This allows libata to unlock HPA on demand instead of having to decide
whether to unlock upfront. Unlocking on demand is safer than
unlocking by upfront because some BIOSes write private data to the
area beyond HPA limit. This was suggested by Ben Hutchings.

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE values are currently recognized by
PACKET_TIMESTAMP. SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE takes precedence over
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE if both bits are set.

When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc
spinlock suffers from very high contention.
The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire
the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for
this lock for each dequeued packet.
One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second
lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see
__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set.
The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main
lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate.
Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to
avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the
cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock
lock as late as possible.
Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000
pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.
(A single netperf flow can reach ~800.000 pps on this platform)
