af_unix: limit recursion level
Its easy to eat all kernel memory and trigger NMI watchdog, using an
exploit program that queues unix sockets on top of others.
lkml ref : http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/25/8
This mechanism is used in applications, one choice we have is to have a
recursion limit.
Other limits might be needed as well (if we queue other types of files),
since the passfd mechanism is currently limited by socket receive queue
sizes only.
Add a recursion_level to unix socket, allowing up to 4 levels.
Each time we send an unix socket through sendfd mechanism, we copy its
recursion level (plus one) to receiver. This recursion level is cleared
when socket receive queue is emptied.

ucc_geth: fix ucc halt problem in half duplex mode
In commit 58933c64(ucc_geth: Fix the wrong the Rx/Tx FIFO size),
the UCC_GETH_UTFTT_INIT is set to 512 based on the recommendation
of the QE Reference Manual. But that will sometimes cause tx halt
while working in half duplex mode.
According to errata draft QE_GENERAL-A003(High Tx Virtual FIFO
threshold size can cause UCC to halt), setting UTFTT less than

(M is the minimum buffer size).

inet: Fix __inet_inherit_port() to correctly increment bsockets and num_owners
inet sockets corresponding to passive connections are added to the bind hash
using ___inet_inherit_port(). These sockets are later removed from the bind
hash using __inet_put_port(). These two functions are not exactly symmetrical.
__inet_put_port() decrements hashinfo->bsockets and tb->num_owners, whereas
___inet_inherit_port() does not increment them. This results in both of these
going to -ve values.
This patch fixes this by calling inet_bind_hash() from ___inet_inherit_port(),

My analysis is we can eat all LOWMEM memory before unix_gc() being

unix_gc() can consume huge amount of time to perform cleanup because of
huge working set.
One way to handle this is to have a sensible limit on unix_tot_inflight,
tested from wait_for_unix_gc() and to force a call to unix_gc() if this
limit is hit.
This solves the OOM and also reduce overall latencies, and should not

of/phylib: Use device tree properties to initialize Marvell PHYs.
Some aspects of PHY initialization are board dependent, things like
indicator LED connections and some clocking modes cannot be determined
by probing. The dev_flags element of struct phy_device can be used to
control these things if an appropriate value can be passed from the
Ethernet driver. We run into problems however if the PHY connections
are specified by the device tree. There is no way for the Ethernet
driver to know what flags it should pass.
If we are using the device tree, the struct phy_device will be
populated with the device tree node corresponding to the PHY, and we
can extract extra configuration information from there.
The next question is what should the format of that information be?
It is highly device specific, and the device tree representation
should not be tied to any arbitrary kernel defined constants. A
straight forward representation is just to specify the exact bits that
should be set using the "marvell,reg-init" property:
The Marvell PHYs have a page select register at register 22 (0x16), we
can specify any register by its page and register number. These are
the first and second word. The third word contains a mask to be ANDed
with the existing register value, and the fourth word is ORed with the
result to yield the new register value. The new marvell_of_reg_init
function leaves the page select register unchanged, so a call to it
can be dropped into the .config_init functions without unduly
affecting the state of the PHY.
If CONFIG_OF_MDIO is not set, there is no of_node, or no
"marvell,reg-init" property, the PHY initialization is unchanged.

cfg80211: fix extension channel checks to initiate communication
When operating in a mode that initiates communication and using
HT40 we should fail if we cannot use both primary and secondary
channels to initiate communication. Our current ht40 allowmap
only covers STA mode of operation, for beaconing modes we need
a check on the fly as the mode of operation is dynamic and
there other flags other than disable which we should read
to check if we can initiate communication.
Do not allow for initiating communication if our secondary HT40
channel has is either disabled, has a passive scan flag, a
no-ibss flag or is a radar channel. Userspace now has similar
checks but this is also needed in-kernel.

ipv6: addrconf: don't remove address state on ifdown if the address is being kept
Currently, addrconf_ifdown does not delete statically configured IPv6
addresses when the interface is brought down. The intent is that when
the interface comes back up the address will be usable again. However,
this doesn't actually work, because the system stops listening on the
corresponding solicited-node multicast address, so the address cannot
respond to neighbor solicitations and thus receive traffic. Also, the
code notifies the rest of the system that the address is being deleted
(e.g, RTM_DELADDR), even though it is not. Fix it so that none of this
state is updated if the address is being kept on the interface.
Tested: Added a statically configured IPv6 address to an interface,
started ping, brought link down, brought link up again. When link came
up ping kept on going and "ip -6 maddr" showed that the host was still
subscribed to there
