Support for netpoll over bonded interfaces was added here:
commit f6dc31a85c

bonding: make bonding support netpoll
but it is bad enough that we should probably just disable netpoll over
bonding until some of the locking logic in the bonding driver is changed
or converted completely to RCU. Simple actions like changing the active
slave in active-backup mode will hang the box if a high enough printk
debugging level is enabled.
Keeping the old code around will be good for anyone that wants to work
on it (and for after the RCU conversion), so I propose this small patch
rather than ripping it all out.

Currently much of the code assumes that a specific window has been
selected, while a few functions save and restore the window. This
makes it impossible to introduce fine-grained locking.
Make those assumptions explicit by introducing wrapper functions
to set the window and read/write a register. Use these everywhere
except vortex_interrupt(), vortex_start_xmit() and vortex_rx().
These set the window just once, or not at all in the case of
vortex_rx() as it should always be called from vortex_interrupt().
Cache the current window in struct vortex_private to avoid
unnecessary hardware writes.

This patch adds dynamic LRO diable support for mlx4 net driver.
It also fixes a bug of mlx4, which checks NETIF_F_LRO flag in rx
path without rtnl lock.
(I don't have mlx4 card, so only did compiling test. Anyone who wants
to test this is more than welcome.)
This is based on Neil's initial work too, and heavily modified based

Now that the device tree node pointer has been moved out of struct
of_device and into the common struct device, there isn't anything
unique about of_device anymore. In fact, there isn't much need
for a separate of_bus when all busses have access to OF style
probing.
arch/powerpc and arch/microblaze are moving away from using the of_bus
and using the regular platform bus instead for mmio devices. This
patch makes of_device the same as platform_device as a stepping stone
in migrating of_platform_drivers over to the platform bus.

This patch moves SPARC architecture specific data members out of
struct of_device and into the pdev_archdata structure. The reason
for this change is to unify the struct of_device definition amongst
all the architectures. It also remvoes the .sysdata, .slot, .portid
and .clock_freq properties because they aren't actually used by
anything.
A subsequent patch will replace struct of_device entirely with struct
platform_device and the of_platform support code will share common
routines with the platform bus (but the bus instances themselves can
remain separate).
This patch also adds 'struct resources *resource' and num_resources
to match the fields defined in struct platform_device. After this
change, 'struct platform_device' can be used as a drop-in replacement
for 'struct of_platform'.
This change is in preparation for merging the of_platform_bus_type
with the platform_bus_type.

The 'bf_retries' field of the ath_buf structure was used for both
software retries (AMPDU subframes) and hardware retries (legacy
frames). This led to a wrong retry count being reported for the A-MPDU
rate control stats.
This patch changes the code to no longer use bf_retries for reporting
retry counts, but instead always using the real on-chip retry count
from the ath_tx_status.
Additionally, if the first subframe of an A-MPDU was not acked, the tx
status report is submitted along with the first acked subframe, which
may not contain the correct rates in the tx info.
This is easily corrected by saving the tx rate info before looping over
subframes, and then copying it back once the A-MPDU status report is
submitted.
In my tests this change improves throughput visibly.

In commit 39d5b2c83c "ath5k: update

chips older than AR5K_SREV_PHY_5413, which caused signal values to be about
10dB less that before. This patch reverts the AR5K_PHY_RESTART_DIV_GC values to
the same values which were effectively used before (without the bitmask

The port profile information for a dynamic enic device is set by the upper
layers, that are oblivious to the device reset operation. We do not want a
reset operation erase the network state of a dynamic enic device as there
is no way to set up the port profile information again. Hence a lighter
reset operation called hang reset is used. Hang reset, unlike soft reset
does not reset the network state and resets the host side state only.

The rate table in the bcast LQ is computed only when the station is
allocated, and chooses the lowest rate for the band. Because of when this
occurs, this is the 2.4 GHz band and uses the 0x420a (CCK, 1 Mbps) rate. In 5 GHz
beaconing mode, this rate will prevent beacons from being sent and any other
packets from being received.
We can fix this by re-initializing the bcast station's LQ command when the
channel is changed.

When building tx command, always set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK

Without setting this bit the firmware will not examine the RTS/CTS setting
and thus not send traffic with the appropriate protection. RTS/CTS is is
required for HT traffic in a noisy environment where, without this setting,
connections will stall on some hardware as documented in the patch that
initially attempted to address this:

Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended

Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter

iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly
broke multicast. The reason, it turns out, is that
the code previously checked if ALLMULTI _changed_,
which the new code no longer did, and normally it
_never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually,
the code prior to my patch there would have been
broken already.
The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask
the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the
new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it
since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending
on the default filter in the device, which isn't
necessarily what we want (since we don't program it
right now).
Fix this by simply not checking allmulti as we have
allmulti behaviour enabled already anyway.
