a2e01a65cd bridge: implement BPDU blocking
This is Linux bridge implementation of STP protection
(Cisco BPDU guard/Juniper BPDU block). BPDU block disables
the bridge port if a STP BPDU packet is received.

Why would you want to do this?
If running Spanning Tree on bridge, hostile devices on the network
may send BPDU and cause network failure. Enabling bpdu block
will detect and stop this.

How to recover the port?
The port will be restarted if link is brought down, or
removed and reattached.  For example:
 # ip li set dev eth0 down; ip li set dev eth0 up

25c71c75ac bridge: bridge port parameters over netlink
Expose bridge port parameter over netlink. By switching to a nested
message, this can be used for other bridge parameters.

This changes IFLA_PROTINFO attribute from one byte to a full nested
set of attributes. This is safe for application interface because the
old message used IFLA_PROTINFO and new one uses
 IFLA_PROTINFO | NLA_F_NESTED.

The code adapts to old format requests, and therefore stays
compatible with user mode RSTP daemon. Since the type field
for nested and unnested attributes are different, and the old
code in libnetlink doesn't do the mask, it is also safe to use
with old versions of bridge monitor command.

Note: although mode is only a boolean, treating it as a
full byte since in the future someone will probably want to add more
values (like macvlan has).

068ee6e204 batman-adv: roaming handling mechanism redesign
This patch allows clients to roam multiple times within the same
originator-interval.

To enable this new feature two key aspects that have been introduced:
1) packets are always directed to the node that was originally
serving the roamed client which will then re-route the data
to the correct destination at any point in time;
2) the client flags handling mechanism has been properly modified
in order to allow multiple roamings withinin the same orig-int.
Therefore flags are now set properly even in this scenario.

7c1fd91da5 batman-adv: substitute tt_poss_change with a per-tt_entry flag
tt_poss_change is a node-wide flag which tells whether the node is in a roaming
state (a client recently moved to/away from it) in order to let it apply special
re-routing rules. However this flag does not give a clear idea of the current
state because it is not possible to understand *which client* is actually
involved in the roaming. For this reason a better approach has been chosen:
instead of using a node-wide variable, the roaming state is now given by a
per-tt_entry ROAM flag which, in case of packet coming through the node, tells
the node whether the real destination is in roaming state or not.

With this flag change, batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() has also been rearranged in
order to better fit the new re-routing logic and to be much more readable.

the initial bridge loop avoidance announcement packets may be lost. This

bd090dfc63 tcp: tcp_replace_ts_recent() should not be called from tcp_validate_incoming()
We added support for RFC 5961 in latest kernels but TCP fails
to perform exhaustive check of ACK sequence.

We can update our view of peer tsval from a frame that is
later discarded by tcp_ack()

This makes timestamps enabled sessions vulnerable to injection of
a high tsval : peers start an ACK storm, since the victim
sends a dupack each time it receives an ACK from the other peer.

As tcp_validate_incoming() is called before tcp_ack(), we should
not peform tcp_replace_ts_recent() from it, and let callers do it
at the right time.

f7c83bcbfa net: xfrm: use __this_cpu_read per-cpu helper
this_cpu_ptr/this_cpu_read is faster than per_cpu_ptr(p, smp_processor_id())
and can reduce  memory accesses.
The latter helper needs to find the offset for current cpu,
and needs more assembler instructions which objdump shows in following.

this_cpu_ptr relocates and address. this_cpu_read() relocates the address
and performs the fetch. this_cpu_read() saves you more instructions
since it can do the relocation and the fetch in one instruction.

     Otherwise if an inet diag handler is not available for a particular
     protocol, we essentially report success instead of giving an error
     indication.  Fix from Cyrill Gorcunov.

  8) When the QFQ packet scheduler sees TSO/GSO packets it does not

  9) Fix oopser in skb_loop_sk(), from Eric Leblond.

  10) CXGB4 passes partially uninitialized datastructures in to FW

  11) When we send unsolicited ipv6 neighbour advertisements, we should
      send them to the link-local allnodes multicast address, as per
      RFC4861.  Fix from Hannes Frederic Sowa.

  12) There is some kind of bug in the usbnet's kevent deferral
      mechanism, but more immediately when it triggers an uncontrolled
      stream of kernel messages spam the log.  Rate limit the error log
      message triggered when this problem occurs, as sending thousands

      and in fact makes further diagnosis more difficult.

  14) The netlink message attribute sizes are wrong in the ipv6 GRE

c3b89fbba3 ipip: add GSO support
In commit 6b78f16e4b (gre: add GSO support) we added GSO support to GRE
tunnels.

This patch does the same for IPIP tunnels.

Performance of single TCP flow over an IPIP tunnel is increased by 40%

60713a0ca7 ipv6: send unsolicited neighbour advertisements to all-nodes
As documented in RFC4861 (Neighbor Discovery for IP version 6) 7.2.6.,
unsolicited neighbour advertisements should be sent to the all-nodes
multicast address.

6352c87ff6 mac80211: reassign channel contexts before stations
Since channel contexts are usually present before
stations can be added to an interface, reassign
before stations them in reconfiguration as well.

8b2c98243e mac80211: clarify interface iteration and make it configurable
During hardware restart, all interfaces are iterated even
though they haven't been re-added to the driver, document
this behaviour. The same also happens during resume, which
is even more confusing since all of the interfaces were
previously removed from the driver. Make this optional so
drivers relying on the current behaviour can still use it,
but to let drivers that don't want this behaviour disable
it.

Also convert all API users, keeping the old semantics
except in hwsim, where the new normal ones are desired.

9214ad7f9a mac80211: call driver method when restart completes
When the driver requests a restart (reconfiguration) it
gets all the normal method calls, but can't really tell
why they're happening. Call a new restart_complete op
in the driver when the restart completes, so it could
keep its own state about the restart and clear it there.

20f544eea0 mac80211: don't send null data packet when not associated
On resume or firmware recovery, mac80211 sends a null
data packet to see if the AP is still around and hasn't
disconnected us. However, it always does this even if
it wasn't even connected before, leading to a warning
in the new channel context code. Fix this by checking
that it's associated.
