In order for the list handling in net_rx_action() to be
correct, drivers must follow certain rules as stated by
this comment in net_rx_action():
/* Drivers must not modify the NAPI state if they
* consume the entire weight. In such cases this code
* still "owns" the NAPI instance and therefore can
* move the instance around on the list at-will.
*/
A few drivers do not do this because they mix the budget checks
with reading hardware state, resulting in crashes like the one
reported by takano@axe-inc.co.jp.
BNX2 and TG3 are taken care of here, SKY2 fix is from Stephen
Hemminger.

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.
Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.
Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

Expansion of original idea from Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>
Add robustness and locking to the local_port_range sysctl.
1. Enforce that low < high when setting.
2. Use seqlock to ensure atomic update.
The locking might seem like overkill, but there are
cases where sysadmin might want to change value in the
middle of a DoS attack.

Loading the crypto algorithm by the alias instead of by module directly
has the advantage that all possible implementations of this algorithm
are loaded automatically and the crypto API can choose the best one
depending on its priority.
Additionally it ensures that the generic implementation as well as the
HW driver (if available) is loaded in case the HW driver needs the
generic version as fallback in corner cases.
Also remove the probe for sha1 in padlock's init code.
Quote from Herbert:
The probe is actually pointless since we can always probe when
the algorithm is actually used which does not lead to dead-locks
like this.

Commit da3dedd9 ("[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct
net_device objects.") changed the interface to NAPI polling. Fix up
the ibm_newemac driver so that it works with this new interface. This
is actually a nice cleanup because ibm_newemac is one of the drivers
that wants to have multiple NAPI structures for a single net_device.
Compile-tested only as I don't have a system that uses the ibm_newemac
driver. This conversion the conversion for the ibm_emac driver that
was tested on real PowerPC 440SPe hardware.

Some versions of gcc replace strstr() calls with a single-character `needle'
parameter by strchr() behind our back. This causes a link error if strchr() is
defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k):
| drivers/built-in.o: In function `libertas_parse_chan':
| linux/drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c:209: undefined reference to `strchr'
| drivers/built-in.o: In function `libertas_parse_ssid':
| linux/drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c:260: undefined reference to `strchr'
Avoid this by explicitly calling strchr() instead.
Also include <linux/string.h>, because this file calls lots of str*() routines.

Reorganize configuration handling by creating a extra
structure which contains precalculated values based
on the mac80211 values which are usefull for all
individual drivers.
This also fixes the preamble configuration problem,
up untill now preamble was never configured since
by default the rate->val value was used when changing
the mode.
Now rate->val will only be used to set the basic rate mask.
The preamble configuration will now be done correctly
through the erp_ie_changed callback function.

As reported by Modestas Vainius, enabling rkfill in 1 driver and
disabling it in a second could cause a NULL pointer exception when
the rfkill-disabled driver still sets the CONFIG_SUPPORT_HW_BUTTON flag.
Furthermore, rfkill expects the timeout as a value in milliseconds
instead of jiffies. Also increase the timeout to a second,
since this 250ms would be overkill.
Also the flag DEVICE_ENABLED_RADIO_HW is causing problems
for devices which do not support the hardware button
while rfkill is enabled in the driver.
To remidy this we should inverse the flag and its meaning,
rename the flag to DEVICE_DISABLED_RADIO_HW this means that
by default the radio is enabled by the hardware button (if present)
and can only be disabled explicitely.

We shouldn't use changed_flags when configuring the packet filter,
we work directly with the total_flags which is safe enough since
we already check if something has changed after we applied our
packet filtering flag rules.
Also make sure that when the packet filter is scheduled, the
rt2x00dev->interface.filter is cleared to make sure the drivers
will update the packet filter instead of failing at the check:
*total_flags == rt2x00dev->interface.filter
