The PPP code contains two kmalloc()s followed by memset()s without
handling a possible memory allocation failure. (Suggested by Joe
Perches).
And furthermore, conversions from kmalloc+memset to kzalloc.

Fix a subtle race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int()
similar to the one in tg3 discovered by Herbert Xu:
CPU0 CPU1
bnx2_start_xmit()
if (tx_ring_full) {
tx_lock
bnx2_tx()
if (!netif_queue_stopped)
netif_stop_queue()
if (!tx_ring_full)
update_tx_ring
netif_wake_queue()
tx_unlock
}
Even though tx_ring is updated before the if statement in bnx2_tx_int() in
program order, it can be re-ordered by the CPU as shown above. This
scenario can cause the tx queue to be stopped forever if bnx2_tx_int() has
just freed up the entire tx_ring. The possibility of this happening
should be very rare though.
The following changes are made, very much identical to the tg3 fix:
1. Add memory barrier to fix the above race condition.
2. Eliminate the private tx_lock altogether and rely solely on
netif_tx_lock. This eliminates one spinlock in bnx2_start_xmit()
when the ring is full.
3. Because of 2, use netif_tx_lock in bnx2_tx_int() before calling
netif_wake_queue().
4. Add memory barrier to bnx2_tx_avail().
5. Add bp->tx_wake_thresh which is set to half the tx ring size.
6. Check for the full wake queue condition before getting
netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx(). This reduces the number of unnecessary
spinlocks when the tx ring is full in a steady-state condition.

Fix BUG I tripped on while testing failover and multipathing.
BUG shows up on error path in multipath_ctr() when parse_priority_group()
fails after returning at least once without error. The fix is to
initialize m->ti early - just after alloc()ing it.

SCSI EH locks door if sdev->locked is set. Sometimes door lock
command fails continuously (e.g. when medium is not present) and as
libata uses EH to acquire sense data, this easily creates a loop where
a failed lock door invokes EH and EH issues lock door on completion.
This patch clears sdev->locked on door lock failure to break this
loop. This problem has been spotted and diagnosed by Unicorn Chang
<uchang@tw.ibm.com>.

Fix a subtle race condition between tg3_start_xmit() and tg3_tx()
discovered by Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>:

tx_lock
tg3_tx()
if (!netif_queue_stopped)

}
Even though tx_ring is updated before the if statement in tg3_tx() in
program order, it can be re-ordered by the CPU as shown above. This
scenario can cause the tx queue to be stopped forever if tg3_tx() has
just freed up the entire tx_ring. The possibility of this happening
should be very rare though.

Remove system device class for xpram. It creates the directory hierarchy
under /sys/devices/system/xpram/xpram0. The xpram0 directory is empty and
it is always created while xpram1 and following devices are always missing,
independent if the devices exist or not. Since the xpram devices are
listed in /proc/partitions and /sys/block/ as slram<x> the system device
class for xpram is meaningless.
