Yuchung discovered tcp_is_cwnd_limited() was returning false in
slow start phase even if the application filled the socket write queue.
All congestion modules take into account tcp_is_cwnd_limited()
before increasing cwnd, so this behavior limits slow start from
probing the bandwidth at full speed.
The problem is that even if write queue is full (aka we are _not_
application limited), cwnd can be under utilized if TSO should auto
defer or TCP Small queues decided to hold packets.
So the in_flight can be kept to smaller value, and we can get to the
point tcp_is_cwnd_limited() returns false.
With TCP Small Queues and FQ/pacing, this issue is more visible.
We fix this by having tcp_cwnd_validate(), which is supposed to track
such things, take into account unsent_segs, the number of segs that we
are not sending at the moment due to TSO or TSQ, but intend to send
real soon. Then when we are cwnd-limited, remember this fact while we
are processing the window of ACKs that comes back.
For example, suppose we have a brand new connection with cwnd=10; we
are in slow start, and we send a flight of 9 packets. By the time we
have received ACKs for all 9 packets we want our cwnd to be 18.
We implement this by setting tp->lsnd_pending to 9, and
considering ourselves to be cwnd-limited while cwnd is less than
twice tp->lsnd_pending (2*9 -> 18).
This makes tcp_is_cwnd_limited() more understandable, by removing
the GSO/TSO kludge, that tried to work around the issue.
Note the in_flight parameter can be removed in a followup cleanup
patch.

We send packets using a copy-free mechanism (this is the Guest to Host transport
via VMBUS). While this is obviously optimal for large packets,
it may not be optimal for small packets. Hyper-V host supports
a second mechanism for sending packets that is "copy based". We implement that
mechanism in this patch.
In this version of the patch I have addressed a comment from David Miller.
With this patch (and all of the other offload and VRSS patches), we are now able
to almost saturate a 10G interface between Linux VMs on Hyper-V
on different hosts - close to 9 Gbps as measured via iperf.

This is a small supplement for commit e7428e95a0
("virtio-net: put virtio-net header inline with data"). TCP packages have
enough room to put virtio-net header in, but UDP packages do not. By
setting dev->needed_headroom for virtio-net device, UDP packages could have
enough room.
For UDP packages, sk_buff is alloced in fun __ip_append_data. The size is
"alloclen + hh_len + 15", and "hh_len = LL_RESERVED_SPACE(rt-dst.dev);".
The Macro is defined as follows:
#define LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) \
((((dev)->hard_header_len+(dev)->needed_headroom)\
&~(HH_DATA_MOD - 1)) + HH_DATA_MOD)
By default, for UDP packages, after skb is allocated, only 16 bytes
reserved. And 2 bytes remained after mac header is set. That is not enough
to put virtio-net header in. If we set dev->needed_headroom to 12 or 10
(according to mergeable_rx_bufs is on or off ), more room can be reserved.
Then there is enough room for UDP packages to put the header in.

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Jacob provides a i40e patch to remove ptp_tx_work() because it conflicts
with the interrupt-based handler and will cause spurious warning messages
to be displayed in the kernel log. Since the hardware can properly trigger
an interrupt, we do not need to poll for an available timestamp in a work
queue any more.
Greg provides two patches for i40e, first to retain the MAC filter list
when changing a port VLAN. Second fixes an issue where the function to
set the VF MAC address was not taking the port VLAN filter into account
when setting/clearing/resetting the VF's host administered MAC address.
Mitch provides three patches for i40evf, first adds support for getting
and setting RSS hashing options, RSS LUT entries, and getting the number
of device channels from ethtool. Fixes a panic that woudl occur in the VF
if the PF driver failed or was removed from the host kernel.
Shannon adds driver version string to the driver version command so that
can be passed down through the firmware to low-level NC-SI functions.
Neerav provides several patches, first redistributes queue vectors after
DCB reconfiguration because the total number of queues that are configured
for a VSI may change based on a change in the total number of TCs enabled
as a result of a change in the DCB configuration based on DCBX. Second,
allows the driver probe to continue when querying DCB config fails.
Lastly, provides changes to retrieve and store missing link config
information that was not being cached in the struct i40e_link_status.
Kevin provides a couple of patches, first to change a int variable type
to u16 to avoid a typecheck failure. Second to update a function
parameters to remove an argument which is no longer used.

T5: tipc_nametbl_publish()
T6: [grab nametble write lock]*
The opposite order of holding nametbl write lock and node lock on
above two different paths may result in a deadlock. If we move the
the delivery of named messages via link out of name nametbl lock,
the reverse order of holding locks will be eliminated, as a result,
the deadlock will be killed as well.

The queue vectors are originally distributed among the total
number of queues that are configured for a given VSI. The number
of queues that are configured for a VSI depends on the number of
TCs that are enabled for the VSI at VSI setup/creation time.
But, the total number of queues that are configured for a VSI may
change based on change in the total number of TCs enabled as a
result of change in DCB configuration based on DCBX.
Hence, it is required for the queue vectors to be redistributed
when the total queues that are configured for a given VSI changes.
Without redistributing the vectors the queues that are configured
for the newly enabled TCs may not be able to do any Tx/Rx.

When actions are attached to a filter, they are a part of the filter
itself, so when changing a filter we should allow to overwrite the actions

to overwrite the existing one in kernel.
This patch checks if we are changing the filter checking NLM_F_CREATE flag
