It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem
that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought
it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets
while there were still packets in the network namespace.
Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves
this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee
that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided
by net_alive in netif_receive_skb. So remove net_alive allowing
packet reception run a little faster.
Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup
is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have
a chance of figuring it out.

Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace
cleanup. There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent
and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but
failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called.
The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their
arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.
It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys. Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making
a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible.
Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in
my testing.

The problem was that object_set_to_gpu_domain would set the new write_domains
that are getting set by this batchbuffer, then the accumulated flushes required
for all the objects in preparation for this batchbuffer were posted, and the
brand new write domain would get cleared by the flush being posted. Instead,
hang on to the new (or old if we're not changing it) value and set it after
the flush is queued.
Results from this noticably included conformance test failures from reads
shortly after writes (where the new write domain had been lost and thus not
flushed and waited on), but is a suspected cause of hangs in some apps when
a write domain is lost on a buffer that gets reused for instruction or
commmand state.

At some point we (okay, I) managed to break the ability for users to use the
setsockopt() syscall to set IPv4 options when NetLabel was not active on the
socket in question. The problem was noticed by someone trying to use the
"-R" (record route) option of ping:
# ping -R 10.0.0.1
ping: record route: No message of desired type
The solution is relatively simple, we catch the unlabeled socket case and
clear the error code, allowing the operation to succeed. Please note that we
still deny users the ability to override IPv4 options on socket's which have
NetLabel labeling active; this is done to ensure the labeling remains intact.

The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others,
so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in
some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.)
and device drivers/device subsystems. This allows these docbooks
to be generated in parallel. (This reduced the docbook processing
time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to
about 2min:01sec.)
The chapters that were moved from kernel-api to device-drivers are:
Driver Basics

Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want
to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will
depend on this flag to know.
The modern x86 timer infrastructure uses the local APIC timers and never
shows up as a device interrupt at all, so it isn't affected and doesn't
need any of this.

This patch fix a double free when a network namespace fails.
The previous code does a kfree of the net_generic structure when
one of the init subsystem initialization fails.
The 'setup_net' function does kfree(ng) and returns an error.
The caller, 'copy_net_ns', call net_free on error, and this one
calls kfree(net->gen), making this pointer freed twice.
This patch make the code symetric, the net_alloc does the net_generic
allocation and the net_free frees the net_generic.

Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer
does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the
sequence number of a packet.
This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts
the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification
(though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible.
Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification
indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up.
Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which
incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and
conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data.
Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only
if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted. This
way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with
non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have
advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent
data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet.
The only potential downside is that applications on the remote
end may see multiple SIGURG notifications. However, this would
occur anyway with other TCP stacks. More importantly, the outcome
of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since
the signal itself does not carry any information other than the
fact that we're in urgent mode.

Further to a71558d, this is round five of fixes to make etherh work
again. As mainline kernels stand, the fixes in b9a9b4b were the wrong
approach.
The 8390 driver was structured by Al Viro to allow the flexibility required
by platforms. lib8390.c contains the core code which drivers explicitly
include:
- 8390.c includes lib8390.c to provide the standard ISA based driver.
- etherh.c includes it with the accessors defined for RiscPC platforms,
where it is addressed via the MMIO accessors with a device dependent
register spacing.
Other platform drivers do something similar.
However, b9a9b4b caused the kernel to contain not only the etherh private
build of lib8390 (included in etherh.c) but also lib8390.c itself, and
referred the new net_device_ops methods to the ISA version. The result
of this is is not pretty:

Some things under CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM (acpi_irq_handled, acpi_os_gpe_count(),
event_is_open, register_acpi_notifier(), etc.) are used unconditionally
by the CA, the OSPM, and drivers, so we depend on them always being

Up until now, we polled the rfkill status for every incoming FUJ02E3 ACPI event.
It turns out that the firmware has a bitmask which indicates what rfkill-related
state it can report.
The rfkill_supported bitmask is now used to avoid polling for rfkill at all in
the notification handler if there is no support. Also, it is used in the platform
device callbacks. As before we register all callbacks and report "unknown" if the
firmware does not give us status updates for that particular bit.
This was fed through checkpatch.pl and tested on the S6420, S7020 and P8010
platforms.

As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in
do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's
caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count.
Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to
the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if
acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle
the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.

The failure happens when an interrupt occurs and the driver is reading
EICR. This read will cause a clear-by-read which leads to two TLP
being inserted in the PCIe retry buffer leading to an overflow of the
buffer and corruption of TLPs.
The solution is different depending where the reading of EICR takes place.
For ixgbe_msix_lsc() since we are in MSIX mode and know OCD is enabled a
clear-by-write is done instead of the normal clear-by-read.
For ixgbe_intr() 0xffffffff is written to EIMC before the read, masking the
interrupts.

This fixes a race where a thread acquires the console while the
console is suspended, and the console is resumed before this
thread releases it. In this case, the secondary console
semaphore would be left locked, and the primary semaphore would
be released twice. This in turn would cause the console switch
on suspend or resume to hang forever.
Note that suspend_console does not actually lock the console
for clients that use acquire_console_sem, it only locks it for
clients that use try_acquire_console_sem. If we change
suspend_console to fully lock the console, then the kernel
may deadlock on suspend. One client of try_acquire_console_sem
is acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk, which uses it to
prevent printk from using the console while it is suspended.

The image writing code dropped a reference to the current swap device.
This doesn't show up if the hibernation succeeds - because it doesn't
affect the image which gets resumed. But it means multiple _failed_
hibernations end up freeing the swap device while it is still use!
swsusp_write() finds the block device for the swap file using swap_type_of().
It then uses blkdev_get() / blkdev_put() to open and close the block device.
Unfortunately, blkdev_get() assumes ownership of the inode of the block_device
passed to it. So blkdev_put() calls iput() on the inode. This is by design
and other callers expect this behaviour. The fix is for swap_type_of() to take
a reference on the inode using bdget().
