Early on this was an experimental facility that few
people other than Alexey Kuznetsov played with.
Now it's a pretty fundamental thing and as people add
more features to AF_PACKET sockets this config options
creates ifdef spaghetti.
So kill it off.

This patch adds GSO/checksum offload to af_packet sockets using
virtio_net_hdr. Based on Rusty's patch to add this support to tun.
It allows GSO/checksum offload to be enabled when using raw socket
backend with virtio_net.
Adds PACKET_VNET_HDR socket option to prepend virtio_net_hdr in the
receive path and process/skip virtio_net_hdr in the send path. This
option is only allowed with SOCK_RAW sockets attached to ethernet
type devices.
v2 updates
----------
Michael's Comments
- Perform length check in packet_snd() when GSO is off even when
vnet_hdr is present.
- Check for SKB_GSO_FCOE type and return -EINVAL
- don't allow tx/rx ring when vnet_hdr is enabled.
Herbert's Comments
- Removed ethernet specific code.
- protocol value is assumed to be passed in by the caller.

Currently the qlge_change_mtu() is never called if the new_mtu is

return 0;

Add periodic heartbeat register read to trigger the eeh
recovery process.
We see cases where an eeh error was injected and the slot was
suspended. An asic access attempt is required to flush the recovery process,
but without interrupts the process can stall.
Adding this periodic register read causes the recovery process to begin.

This patch introduces the similar helpers as those already done for uc list.
However multicast lists are no list_head lists but "mademanually". The three
macros added by this patch will make the transition of mc_list to list_head
smooth in two steps:
1) convert all drivers to use these macros (with the original iterator of type
"struct dev_mc_list")
2) once all drivers are converted, convert list type and iterators to "struct
netdev_hw_addr" in one patch.
>From now on, drivers can (and should) use "netdev_for_each_mc_addr" to iterate
over the addresses with iterator of type "struct netdev_hw_addr". Also macros
"netdev_mc_count" and "netdev_mc_empty" to read list's length. This is the state
which should be reached in all drivers.

If receive buffer mapping failed, then it was possible to get
stuck with unmapped receive buffer in DMA ring.
This would be an extremely rare condition because the driver had just
released the map for the last receive so it should be able to get
another map again (in soft-irq).

This patch addresses concerns about efficiency of handling incoming
packets. Handling of interrupts is done in a threaded interrupt handler
which has a smaller latency than workqueues. This change needed a rework
of the locking scheme that was much simplified. Some other (more or less
longstanding) bugs are fixed: utilization of just half of the RX
buffers, useless wait for interrupt on open, more reliable reset
sequence. The MERR interrupt is not used anymore: it overloads the CPU
in error-passive state without any additional information. One shot mode
is disabled because it's not clear if it can be handled efficiently on
this CAN controller.

In order to use macvlan with qemu and other tools that require
a tap file descriptor, the macvtap driver adds a small backend
with a character device with the same interface as the tun
driver, with a minimum set of features.
Macvtap interfaces are created in the same way as macvlan
interfaces using ip link, but the netif is just used as a
handle for configuration and accounting, while the data
goes through the chardev. Each macvtap interface has its
own character device, simplifying permission management
significantly over the generic tun/tap driver.

In the vlan and macvlan drivers, the start_xmit function forwards
data to the dev_queue_xmit function for another device, which may
potentially belong to a different namespace.
To make sure that classification stays within a single namespace,
this resets the potentially critical fields.

The default policy for the current driver is to do all its memory
allocation on whatever processor is running insmod/modprobe. This
is less than optimal.
This driver's default mode of operation will be to use each node for each
subsequent transmit/receive queue. The most efficient allocation will be
to then have the interrupts bound in such a way as to match up the
interrupt of the queue to the cpu where its memory was allocated.

Processing multiple ixgbe_watchdog_task calls may cause
the link_up variable and IXGBE_FLAG_NEED_LINK_UPDATE flag
to be set incorrectly. In the worse case this is causing
the netif_carrier_off to be called inappropriately which
results in an interface that can't be brought up.
Although schedule_work() will only schedule the task if
it is not already on the work queue the WORK_STRUCT_PENDING
bits are cleared just before calling the work function.
This allows WORK_STRUCT_PENDING to be cleared, the work
function to start and meanwhile schedule another task.
This patch adds a mutex to the watchdog task. This bug is
actualized by changing DCB settings or doing extended
cable pull or reset tests.

Commit e5a43549f7a58509a91b299a51337d386697b92c (ixgbe: remove
skb_dma_map/unmap calls from driver) looks to have introduced a bug in
ixgbe_tx_map. If we get an error from a PCI DMA call, we loop backwards
through count until it becomes -1 and return that.
The caller of ixgbe_tx_map expects 0 on error, so return that instead.
