Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,

There's a number of problems with the way iseries_veth counts TX errors.
Firstly it counts conditions which aren't really errors as TX errors. This
includes if we don't have a connection struct for the other LPAR, or if the
other LPAR is currently down (or just doesn't want to talk to us). Neither
of these should count as TX errors.
Secondly, it counts one TX error for each LPAR that fails to accept the packet.
This can lead to TX error counts higher than the total number of packets sent
through the interface. This is confusing for users.
This patch fixes that behaviour. The non-error conditions are no longer
counted, and we introduce a new and I think saner meaning to the TX counts.
If a packet is successfully transmitted to any LPAR then it is transmitted
and tx_packets is incremented by 1.
If there is an error transmitting a packet to any LPAR then that is counted
as one error, ie. tx_errors is incremented by 1.

The iseries_veth driver often has multiple netdevices sending packets over
a single connection to another LPAR. If the bandwidth to the other LPAR is
exceeded, all the netdevices must have their queues stopped.
The current code achieves this by queueing one incoming skb on the
per-netdevice port structure. When the connection is able to send more packets
we iterate through the port structs and flush any packet that is queued,
as well as restarting the associated netdevice's queue.
This arrangement makes less sense now that we have per-connection TX timers,
rather than the per-netdevice generic TX timer.
The new code simply detects when one of the connections is full, and stops
the queue of all associated netdevices. Then when a packet is acked on that
connection (ie. there is space again) all the queues are woken up.

Currently the iseries_veth driver contravenes the specification in
Documentation/networking/driver.txt, in that if packets are not acked by
the other LPAR they will sit around forever.
This patch adds a per-connection timer which fires if we've had no acks for
five seconds. This is superior to the generic TX timer because it catches
the case of a small number of packets being sent and never acked.
This fixes a bug we were seeing on real systems, where some IPv6 neighbour
discovery packets would not be acked and then prevent the module from being
removed, due to skbs lying around.

The iseries_veth driver can attach to multiple vlans, which correspond to
multiple net devices. However there is only 1 connection between each LPAR,
so the connection structure may be shared by multiple net devices.
This makes module removal messy, because we can't deallocate the connections
until we know there are no net devices still using them. The solution is to
use ref counts on the connections, so we can delete them (actually stop) as
soon as the ref count hits zero.
This patch fixes (part of) a bug we were seeing with IPv6 sending probes to
a dead LPAR, which would then hang us forever due to leftover skbs.

The iseries_veth driver contains a state machine which is used to manage
how connections are setup and neogotiated between LPARs.
If one side of a connection resets for some reason, the two LPARs can get
stuck in a race to re-setup the connection. This can lead to the connection
being declared dead by one or both ends. In practice the connection is
declared dead by one or both ends approximately 8/10 times a connection is
reset, although it is rare for connections to be reset.
(an example here: http://michael.ellerman.id.au/files/misc/veth-trace.html)
The core of the problem is that the end that resets the connection doesn't
wait for the other end to become aware of the reset. So the resetting end
starts setting the connection back up, and then receives a reset from the
other end (which is the response to the initial reset). And so on.
We're severely limited in what we can do to fix this. The protocol between
LPARs is essentially fixed, as we have to interoperate with both OS/400
and old Linux drivers. Which also means we need a fix that only changes the
code on one end.
The only fix I've found given that, is to just blindly sleep for a bit when
resetting the connection, in the hope that the other end will get itself
sorted. Needless to say I'd love it if someone has a better idea.
This does work, I've so far been unable to get it to break, whereas without
the fix a reset of one end will lead to a dead connection ~8/10 times.

The iseries_veth driver has a timer which we use to send acks. When the
connection is reset or stopped we need to delete the timer.
Currently we only call del_timer() when resetting a connection, which means
the timer might run again while the connection is being re-setup. As it turns
out that's ok, because the flags the timer consults have been reset.
It's cleaner though to call del_timer_sync() once we've dropped the lock,
although the timer may still run between us dropping the lock and calling
del_timer_sync(), but as above that's ok.

The start_tx and stop_tx methods were passed a flag to indicate
whether the start/stop was from the tty start/stop callbacks, and
some drivers used this flag to decide whether to ask the UART to
immediately stop transmission (where the UART supports such a
feature.)
There are other cases when we wish this to occur - when CTS is
lowered, or if we change from soft to hard flow control and CTS
is inactive. In these cases, this flag was false, and we would
allow the transmitter to drain before stopping.
There is really only one case where we want to let the transmitter
drain before disabling, and that's when we run out of characters
to send.
Hence, re-jig the start_tx and stop_tx methods to eliminate this
flag, and introduce new functions for the special "disable and
allow transmitter to drain" case.

I had some time to think about PCI assign issues in 2.6.13-rc series.
The major problem here is that we call pci_assign_unassigned_resources()
way too early - at subsys_initcall level. Therefore we give no chances
to ACPI and PnP routines (called at fs_initcall level) to reserve their
respective resources properly, as the comments in drivers/pnp/system.c
and drivers/acpi/motherboard.c suggest:
/**
* Reserve motherboard resources after PCI claim BARs,
* but before PCI assign resources for uninitialized PCI devices
*/
So I moved the pci_assign_unassigned_resources() call to
pcibios_assign_resources() (fs_initcall), which should hopefully fix a
lot of problems and make PCIBIOS_MIN_IO tweaks unnecessary.
Other changes:
- remove resource assignment code from pcibios_assign_resources(), since
it duplicates pci_assign_unassigned_resources() functionality and
actually does nothing in 2.6.13;
- modify ROM assignment code as per Ben's suggestion: try to use firmware
settings by default (if PCI_ASSIGN_ROMS is not set);
- set CARDBUS_IO_SIZE back to 4K as it's a wonderful stress test for
various setups.

This speeds up link-up time on 5706 SerDes if the link partner does
not autoneg, a rather common scenario in blade servers. Some blade
servers use IPMI for keyboard input and it's important to minimize
link disruptions.
The speedup is achieved by shortening the timer to (HZ / 3) during
the transient period right after initiating a SerDes autoneg. If
autoneg does not complete, parallel detect can be done sooner. After
the transient period is over, the timer goes back to its normal HZ
interval.
As suggested by Jeff Garzik, the timer initialization is moved to
bnx2_init_board() from bnx2_open().
An eeprom bit is also added to allow default forced SerDes speed for

This patch adds the new workaround for 5703 A1/A2 if it is behind
certain ICH bridges. The workaround disables memory and uses config.
cycles only to access all registers. The 5702/03 chips can mistakenly
decode the special cycles from the ICH chipsets as memory write cycles,
causing corruption of register and memory space. Only certain ICH
bridges will drive special cycles with non-zero data during the address
phase which can fall within the 5703's address range. This is not an ICH
bug as the PCI spec allows non-zero address during special cycles.
However, only these ICH bridges are known to drive non-zero addresses
during special cycles.

device into packet_type->func() as an argument.
It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

This removes the private element from skbuff, that is only used by
HIPPI. Instead it uses skb->cb[] to hold the additional data that is
needed in the output path from hard_header to device driver.
PS: The only qdisc that might potentially corrupt this cb[] is if
netem was used over HIPPI. I will take care of that by fixing netem
to use skb->stamp. I don't expect many users of netem over HIPPI

Remove the "list" member of struct sk_buff, as it is entirely
redundant. All SKB list removal callers know which list the
SKB is on, so storing this in sk_buff does nothing other than
taking up some space.
Two tricky bits were SCTP, which I took care of, and two ATM
drivers which Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> fixed
up.
