In kexec scenario, we failed to load the mlx4 driver in the
second kernel because the ownership bit was hold by the first
kernel without release correctly.
The patch adds shutdown() interface so that the ownership can
be released correctly in the first kernel. It also helps avoiding
EEH error happened during boot stage of the second kernel because
of undesired traffic, which can't be handled by hardware during
that stage on Power platform.

Macvlan currently inherits all of its features from the lower
device. When lower device disables offload support, this causes
macvlan to disable offload support as well. This causes
performance regression when using macvlan/macvtap in bridge
mode.
It can be easily demonstrated by creating 2 namespaces using
macvlan in bridge mode and running netperf between them:
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 10.0.0.1 () port 0 AF_INET

To restore the performance, we add software offload features
to the list of "always_on" features for macvlan. This way
when a namespace or a guest using macvtap initially sends a
packet, this packet will not be segmented at macvlan level.
It will only be segmented when macvlan sends the packet
to the lower device.

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"This time I have a fix to get out of an 'infinite error state' in case
regulatory domain updates failed and two fixes for VHT associations: one
to not disconnect immediately when the AP uses more bandwidth than the
new regdomain would allow after a change due to association country
information getting used, and one for an issue in the code where
mac80211 doesn't correctly ignore a reserved field and then uses an HT
instead of VHT association."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"Johannes fixes a long standing bug in the AMPDU status reporting.
Max fixes the listen time which was way too long and causes trouble
to several APs."

This patch fixes a CPDMA RX Descriptor leak that occurs after taking
the interface down when the CPSW is in Dual MAC mode. Previously
the CPSW_ALE port was left open up which causes packets to be received
and processed by the RX interrupt handler and were passed to the
non active network interface where they were ignored.
The fix is for the slave_stop function of the selected interface
to disable the respective CPSW_ALE Port from forwarding packets. This
blocks traffic from being received on the inactive interface.

There's a bug in the slave release function which leads the transmit
functions which use the bond->slave_cnt to a div by 0 because we might
just have released our last slave and made slave_cnt == 0 but at the same
time we may have a transmitter after the check for an empty list which will
fetch it and use it in the slave id calculation.
Fix it by moving the slave_cnt after synchronize_rcu so if this was our
last slave any new transmitters will see an empty slave list which is
checked after rcu lock but before calling the mode transmit functions
which rely on bond->slave_cnt.

Veaceslav has reported and fix this problem by commit f2ebd477f1
(bonding: restructure locking of bond_ab_arp_probe()). According Jay's
opinion, the current solution is not very well, because the notification
is to indicate that the interface has actually changed state in a meaningful
way, but these calls in the ab ARP monitor are internal settings of the flags
to allow the ARP monitor to search for a slave to become active when there are
no active slaves. The flag setting to active or backup is to permit the ARP
monitor's response logic to do the right thing when deciding if the test
slave (current_arp_slave) is up or not.
So the best way to fix the problem is that we should not send a notification
when the slave is in testing state, and check the state at the end of the
monitor, if the slave's state recover, avoid to send pointless notification
twice. And RTNL is really a big lock, hold it regardless the slave's state
changed or not when the current_active_slave is null will loss performance
(every 100ms), so we should hold it only when the slave's state changed and
need to notify.
I revert the old commit and add new modifications.

The problem was introduced by the commit 1d3ee88ae0
(bonding: add netlink attributes to slave link dev).
The bond_set_active_slave() and bond_set_backup_slave()
will use rtmsg_ifinfo to send slave's states, so these
two functions should be called in RTNL.
In 802.3ad mode, acquiring RTNL for the __enable_port and
__disable_port cases is difficult, as those calls generally
already hold the state machine lock, and cannot unconditionally
call rtnl_lock because either they already hold RTNL (for calls
via bond_3ad_unbind_slave) or due to the potential for deadlock
with bond_3ad_adapter_speed_changed, bond_3ad_adapter_duplex_changed,
bond_3ad_link_change, or bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate. All four of
those are called with RTNL held, and acquire the state machine lock
second. The calling contexts for __enable_port and __disable_port
already hold the state machine lock, and may or may not need RTNL.
According to the Jay's opinion, I don't think it is a problem that
the slave don't send notify message synchronously when the status
changed, normally the state machine is running every 100 ms, send
the notify message at the end of the state machine if the slave's
state changed should be better.
I fix the problem through these steps:
1). add a new function bond_set_slave_state() which could change
the slave's state and call rtmsg_ifinfo() according to the input
parameters called notify.
2). Add a new slave parameter which called should_notify, if the slave's state
changed and don't notify yet, the parameter will be set to 1, and then if
the slave's state changed again, the param will be set to 0, it indicate that
the slave's state has been restored, no need to notify any one.
3). the __enable_port and __disable_port should not call rtmsg_ifinfo
in the state machine lock, any change in the state of slave could
set a flag in the slave, it will indicated that an rtmsg_ifinfo
should be called at the end of the state machine.
