Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag. This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels
to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and
n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time. 2.2.15 introduced
tty->read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the
only state requiring protection between these two functions.
The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not
universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line
discipline receive_buf function.
Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is
not universally honored, it is removed.

locking init cleanups:
- convert " = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED" to spin_lock_init() or DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
- convert rwlocks in a similar manner
this patch was generated automatically.
Motivation:
- cleanliness
- lockdep needs control of lock initialization, which the open-coded
variants do not give
- it's also useful for -rt and for lock debugging in general

The netpoll system currently has a rx to tx path via:
netpoll_rx
__netpoll_rx
arp_reply
netpoll_send_skb
dev->hard_start_tx
This rx->tx loop places network drivers at risk of inadvertently causing a
deadlock or BUG halt by recursively trying to acquire a spinlock that is
used in both their rx and tx paths (this problem was origionally reported
to me in the 3c59x driver, which shares a spinlock between the
boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_xmit routines).
This patch breaks this loop, by queueing arp frames, so that they can be
responded to after all receive operations have been completed. Tested by
myself and the reported with successful results.
Specifically it was tested with netdump. Heres the BZ with details:

skb_find_text takes a "to" argument which is supposed to limit how
far into the skb it will search for the given text. At present,
it seems to ignore that argument on the first skb, and instead
return a match even if the text occurs beyond the limit.
Patch below fixes this, after adjusting for the "from" starting
point. This consequently fixes the netfilter string match's "--to"
handling, which currently is broken.

Fix 2 problems in dev_hard_start_xmit():
1. nskb->next needs to link back to skb->next if hard_start_xmit()
returns non-zero.
2. Since the total number of GSO fragments may exceed MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1,
it needs to stop transmitting if the netif_queue is stopped.

Fix checksum problems in the GSO code path for CHECKSUM_HW packets.
The ipv4 TCP pseudo header checksum has to be adjusted for GSO
segmented packets.
The adjustment is needed because the length field in the pseudo-header
changes. However, because we have the inequality oldlen > newlen, we
know that delta = (u16)~oldlen + newlen is still a 16-bit quantity.
This also means that htonl(delta) + th->check still fits in 32 bits.
Therefore we don't have to use csum_add on this operations.
This is based on a patch by Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com>.

This fixes a bug spotted by the coverity checker, bug id #366. If
(mod(seqno - prev) != 1) we set buf to NULL, dereference it in the for
case, and set it to whatever value happes to be at adress 0+next, if it
happens to be non-zero, we even stay in the loop. It seems that the author
intended to break there.

This fix prevents link flopping and name table inconsistency problems arising
when a node is assigned a different <Z.C.N> value than it used previously.
(Changing the <Z.C.N> value causes other nodes to have two link endpoints
sending to the same MAC address using two different destination <Z.C.N> values,
requiring the receiving node to filter out the unwanted messages.)

There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which
is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning
that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled. For
those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64,
powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower
code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var
on those platforms.
This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x,
raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu
implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that
have an optimized per-cpu implementation.
