The standard assigns channel 0 on page 2 to be 100kbps QPSK in the
868.3MHz band. Add support to the at86rf230 driver for this channel and
page, at the moment predicated only for the RF212 chip.
Per the datasheet, configurations for page 0, channels 0 to 10 and page
2, channels 0 to 10 differ only in the BPSK_QPSK bit. Support for
channels 1 to 10 is untested.

Replace the current u8 transmit_power in wpan_phy with s8 transmit_power.
The u8 field contained the actual tx power and a tolerance field,
which no physical radio every used. Adjust sysfs entries to keep
compatibility with userspace, give tolerances of +-1dB statically there.
This patch only adds support for this in the at86rf230 driver and the
RF212 chip. Configuration calculation for RF212 is also somewhat basic,
but does the job - the RF212 datasheet gives a large table with
suggested values for combinations of TX power and page/channel, if this
does not work well, we might have to copy the whole table.

The current IEEE802.15.4 stack assumes that a radio will never deliver
packets with a bad CRC into the stack, as required by the standard.
at86rf230 driven radios violates this assumption because of another
incompatibility: devices are required to send ACKs if requested by a
sender, but RF2xx will only send ACKs from a special receive mode that
is currently not used by the driver.
Enable this receive mode to fix both bugs. Frames with bad CRCs will not
be received at all, and ACKs will be sent if so requested.

Since the AT86RF2xy chips are mostly compatible, this is only a small
change to the actual driver code. The at86rf230 driver already supports the
RF212 in most places, only three small adjustments are required:
* force the initial state after P_ON to FORCE_TRX_OFF to work around a
documented erratum
* channels_supported depends on the frequency of the transceiver, and
thus is_rf212
* do early detection of chip version select an appropriate _ops struct
based on the chip version.

net: phy: soft reset rework for 10G PHYs
As reported by Shaohui, 10G PHYs may have a slightly more complex reset
sequence for which a BMCR_RESET software reset might not suffice. This
patchset offers a solution for those by allowing them to implement their
own soft_reset() callback. Finally there is an update to the PHY library
Documentation to cover for the newly added callbacks of the PHY driver
structure.
Changes in v2:
- fixed callback testing
- fixed typo in Documentation

As pointed out by Shaohui, most 10G PHYs out there have a non-standard
compliant software reset sequence, eventually something much more
complex than just toggling the BMCR_RESET bit. Allow PHY driver to
implement their own soft_reset() callback to deal with that. If no
callback is provided, call into genphy_soft_reset() which makes sure the
existing behavior is kept intact.

a soft_reset() callback.

This is not a buffer overflow in the traditional sense: we don't
overflow any *kernel* buffers, but we do mis-count the amount of data we
copy back to user space for the SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL case.
In particular, if the user buffer is too small to hold everything, and
*if* there is a continuation line at just the right place, we can end up
giving the user more data than he asked for.
The reason is that we first count up the number of bytes all the log
records contains, then we walk the records again until we've skipped the
records at the beginning that won't fit, and then we walk the rest of
the records and copy them to the user space buffer.
And in between that "skip the initial records that won't fit" and the
"copy the records that *will* fit to user space", we reset the 'prev'
variable that contained the record information for the last record not
copied. That meant that when we started copying to user space, we now
had a different character count than what we had originally calculated
in the first record walk-through.
The fix is to simply not clear the 'prev' flags value (in both cases
where we had the same logic: syslog_print_all and kmsg_dump_get_buffer:
the latter is used for pstore-like dumping)

HID core expects the input buffers to be at least of size 4096
(HID_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE). Other sizes will result in buffer-overflows if an
input-report is smaller than advertised. We could, like i2c, compute the
biggest report-size instead of using HID_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE, but this will
blow up if report-descriptors are changed after ->start() has been called.
So lets be safe and just use the biggest buffer we have.
Note that this adds an additional copy to the HIDP input path. If there is
a way to make sure the skb-buf is big enough, we should use that instead.
The best way would be to make hid-core honor the @size argument, though,
that sounds easier than it is. So lets just fix the buffer-overflows for
now and afterwards look for a faster way for all transport drivers.

This patch removes a generic hard_header_len check from the usbnet
module that is causing dropped packages under certain circumstances
for devices that send rx packets that cross urb boundaries.
One example is the AX88772B which occasionally send rx packets that
cross urb boundaries where the remaining partial packet is sent with
no hardware header. When the buffer with a partial packet is of less
number of octets than the value of hard_header_len the buffer is
discarded by the usbnet module.
With AX88772B this can be reproduced by using ping with a packet
size between 1965-1976.
The bug has been reported here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29082
This patch introduces the following changes:
- Removes the generic hard_header_len check in the rx_complete
function in the usbnet module.
- Introduces a ETH_HLEN check for skbs that are not cloned from
within a rx_fixup callback.
- For safety a hard_header_len check is added to each rx_fixup
callback function that could be affected by this change.
These extra checks could possibly be removed by someone
who has the hardware to test.
- Removes a call to dev_kfree_skb_any() and instead utilizes the
dev->done list to queue skbs for cleanup.
The changes place full responsibility on the rx_fixup callback
functions that clone skbs to only pass valid skbs to the
usbnet_skb_return function.

root@morgental:~# ip link set foo up mtu 1468

but after the above commit, no such route shows up.
There is no link local route because dev->dev_addr is 0 (because local ipv4
address is 0), hence no link local address is configured.
In this scenario, the link local address is added manually: 'ip -6 addr add
fe80::1 dev foo' and because prefix is /128, no link local route is added by the
kernel.
Even if the right things to do is to add the link local address with a /64
prefix, we need to restore the previous behavior to avoid breaking userpace.

Mathias reported that on an AMD Geode LX embedded board (ALiX)
with ath9k driver PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, introduced in commit
d346a3fae3 ("packet: introduce PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket
option"), triggers a WARN_ON() coming from the driver itself
via 066dae93bd ("ath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix
queue stopping/waking").
The reason why this happened is that ndo_select_queue() call
is not invoked from direct xmit path i.e. for ieee80211 subsystem
that sets queue and TID (similar to 802.1d tag) which is being
put into the frame through 802.11e (WMM, QoS). If that is not
set, pending frame counter for e.g. ath9k can get messed up.
So the WARN_ON() in ath9k is absolutely legitimate. Generally,
the hw queue selection in ieee80211 depends on the type of
traffic, and priorities are set according to ieee80211_ac_numbers
mapping; working in a similar way as DiffServ only on a lower
layer, so that the AP can favour frames that have "real-time"
requirements like voice or video data frames.
Therefore, check for presence of ndo_select_queue() in netdev
ops and, if available, invoke it with a fallback handler to
__packet_pick_tx_queue(), so that driver such as bnx2x, ixgbe,
or mlx4 can still select a hw queue for transmission in
relation to the current CPU while e.g. ieee80211 subsystem
can make their own choices.

Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a
fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx();
fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers
invoke this function within their customized implementation in
case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback
handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different
queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc).
This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is
then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that
function to modules can be undone.

This patch allows the use of a generic timestamping phy connected
to the cpsw if CPTS support is not enabled. This also adds support
of the SIOCGMIIREG and SIOCSMIIREG, and moves handling of SIOCGMIIPHY
to the generic driver.
