ipv6: disable GSO on sockets hitting dst_allfrag
If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6
Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280), we hit a
very slow behavior in TCP stack, because all big packets are dropped and
only a retransmit timer is able to push one MSS frame every 200 ms.
One way to handle this is to disable GSO on the socket the first time a
super packet is dropped. Adding a specific dst_allfrag() in the fast

ipv6: ip6_fragment() should check CHECKSUM_PARTIAL
Quoting Tore Anderson from :
If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6
Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280),
TCP SYN/ACK packets to that destination appears to get an incorrect
TCP checksum. This in turn means they are thrown away as invalid.
In the case of an IPv4 client behind a link with a MTU of less than
1260, accessing an IPv6 server through a stateless translator,
this means that the client can only download a single large file
from the server, because once it is in the server's routing cache
with the allfrag feature set, new TCP connections can no longer
be established.
</endquote>
It appears ip6_fragment() doesn't handle CHECKSUM_PARTIAL properly.
As network drivers are not prepared to fetch correct transport header, a
safe fix is to call skb_checksum_help() before fragmenting packet.

arch/tile: fix up some issues in calling do_work_pending()
First, we were at risk of handling thread-info flags, in particular
do_signal(), when returning from kernel space. This could happen
after a failed kernel_execve(), or when forking a kernel thread.
The fix is to test in do_work_pending() for user_mode() and return
immediately if so; we already had this test for one of the flags,
so I just hoisted it to the top of the function.
Second, if a ptraced process updated the callee-saved registers
in the ptregs struct and then processed another thread-info flag, we
would overwrite the modifications with the original callee-saved
registers. To fix this, we add a register to note if we've already
saved the registers once, and skip doing it on additional passes
through the loop. To avoid a performance hit from the couple of
extra instructions involved, I modified the GET_THREAD_INFO() macro
to be guaranteed to be one instruction, then bundled it with adjacent
instructions, yielding an overall net savings.

The IEEE 802.15.4 Working Group focuses on the standardization of the
bottom two layers of ISO/OSI protocol stack: Physical (PHY) and MAC.
The MAC layer provides access control to a shared channel and reliable
data delivery. The main functions performed by the MAC sublayer are:
association and disassociation, security control, optional star
network topology functions, such as beacon generation and Guaranteed
Time Slots (GTSs) management, generation of ACK frames (if used), and,
finally, application support for the two possible network topologies
described in the standard.
This is an initial commit which describes main data structures needed
for ieee802.15.4 compatible devices representation in the MAC layer.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix bug leading to deadlock in guest HPT updates
When handling the H_BULK_REMOVE hypercall, we were forgetting to
invalidate and unlock the hashed page table entry (HPTE) in the case
where the page had been paged out. This fixes it by clearing the
first doubleword of the HPTE in that case.
This fixes a regression introduced in commit a92bce95f0 ("KVM: PPC:
Book3S HV: Keep HPTE locked when invalidating"). The effect of the
regression is that the host kernel will sometimes hang when under
memory pressure.

KVM: PPC: Book3S: PR: Fix hsrr code
When jumping back into the kernel to code that knows that it would be
using HSRR registers instead of SRR registers, we need to make sure we
pass it all information on where to jump to in HSRR registers.
Unfortunately, we used r10 to store the information to distinguish between
the HSRR and SRR case. That register got clobbered in between though,
rendering the later comparison invalid.
Instead, let's use cr1 to store this information. That way we don't
need yet another register and everyone's happy.

KVM: PPC: Fix PR KVM on POWER7 bare metal
When running on a system that is HV capable, some interrupts use HSRR
SPRs instead of the normal SRR SPRs. These are also used in the Linux
handlers to jump back to code after an interrupt got processed.
Unfortunately, in our "jump back to the real host handler after we've
done the context switch" code, we were only setting the SRR SPRs,
rendering Linux to jump back to some invalid IP after it's processed
the interrupt.
This fixes random crashes on p7 opal mode with PR KVM for me.

In addition to normal "priviledged instruction" traps, we can also receive
"emulation assist" traps on newer hardware that has the HV bit set.
Handle that one the same way as a privileged instruction, including the
instruction fetching. That way we don't execute old instructions that we
happen to still leave in that field when an emul assist trap comes.

Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless
John Linville says:
Here are three more fixes that some of my developers are desperate to
see included in 3.4...
Johan Hedberg went to some length justifyng the inclusion of these two
Bluetooth fixes:
"The device_connected fix should be quite self-explanatory, but it's
actually a wider issue than just for keyboards. All profiles that do
incoming connection authorization (e.g. headsets) will break without it
with specific hardware. The reason it wasn't caught earlier is that it
only occurs with specific Bluetooth adapters.
As for the security level patch, this fixes L2CAP socket based security
level elevation during a connection. The HID profile needs this (for
keyboards) and it is the only way to achieve the security level
elevation when using the management interface to talk to the kernel
(hence the management enabling patch being the one that exposes this"
The rtlwifi fix addresses a regression related to firmware loading,
as described in kernel.org bug 43187. It basically just moves a hunk
of code to a more appropriate place.
