9146782b1b brcmsmac: fix statistic counter update function
The 802.11 core statistics are retrieved from the core registers
but not stored. So the debug code was never triggered to give a
warning message on tx underruns or rx overflows. This patch fixes
this and assures the statistics are stored in the snapshot.

9a06bec9ae wil6210: Add support for large packets
It is possible to configure driver using mtu_max module parameter
by setting it to value in range of 68..7920 inclusive.
This is sub-optimal performance-wise in case packet is larger than 1 page.
mtu_max default value is 2228.

b516fcc554 wil6210: prevent double disconnect command issuing
Disconnect flow may be invoked either from upper layer request,
or from event reported by the firmware.

In case of firmware event, driver need to release resources for the station but
not send another disconnect WMI command.

In case of upper layer request, WMI_DISCONNECT_STA_CMDID command need to
be issued for the firmware to perform disconnect on the MAC layer. Eventually,
event is expected to confirm MAC disconnect, but it is better to not wait for
firmware event and release station resources immediately. FW may fail to
report disconnect for various reasons, so one could not rely on event always reported.

Introduce parameter to distinguish 2 cases above to prevent double WMI command
issuing.

cded936962 wil6210: do not attempt FW recovery if interface is down
When interface is down, recovery flow should not be attempted.
Next ndo_open() will trigger target reset, that is FW recovery.

Doing recovery while interface is down cause internal "up", leaving
internal driver state in conflict with network stack. Then, when network
stack will call ndo_open(), kernel oops will be triggered.

3a8fede115 mwifiex: restart rxreorder timer correctly
During 11n RX reordering, if there is a hole in RX table,
driver will not send packets to kernel until the rxreorder
timer expires or the table is full.
However, currently driver always restarts rxreorder timer when
receiving a packet, which causes the timer hardly to expire.
So while connected with to 11n AP in a busy environment,
ping packets may get blocked for about 30 seconds.

This patch fixes this timer restarting by ensuring rxreorder timer
would only be restarted either timer is not set or start_win
has changed.

bc16e47f03 igb: don't reuse pages with pfmemalloc flag
Incoming packet is dropped silently by sk_filter(), if the skb was
allocated from pfmemalloc reserves and the corresponding socket is
not marked with the SOCK_MEMALLOC flag.

Igb driver allocates pages for DMA with __skb_alloc_page(), which
calls alloc_pages_node() with the __GFP_MEMALLOC flag. So, in case
of OOM condition, igb can get pages with pfmemalloc flag set.

If an incoming packet hits the pfmemalloc page and is large enough
(small packets are copying into the memory, allocated with
netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(), so they are not affected), it will be
dropped.

This behavior is ok under high memory pressure, but the problem is
that the igb driver reuses these mapped pages. So, packets are still
dropping even if all memory issues are gone and there is a plenty
of free memory.

In my case, some TCP sessions hang on a small percentage (< 0.1%)
of machines days after OOMs.

Fix this by avoiding reuse of such pages.

a22bb0b9b9 e1000: unset IFF_UNICAST_FLT on WMware 82545EM
VMWare's e1000 implementation does not seem to support unicast filtering.
This can be observed by configuring a macvlan interface on eth0 in a VM in
VMWare Fusion 5.0.5, and trying to use that interface instead of eth0.
Tested on 3.16.

c8fc84ed60 mac802154: add hardware address filter flag
Overdue introduction for address filtering hardware flag. Furthermore we
will check and set address filtering on interface up. This patch
prepares that we can check if an transceiver supports address filtering
option. Currently all mainline driver supports hardware address filtering.
