mac80211: Fix WMM ACM parsing and AC downgrade operation
Incorrect local->wmm_acm bits were set for AC_BK and AC_BE. Fix this
and add some comments to make it easier to understand the AC-to-UP(pair)
mapping. Set the wmm_acm bits (and show WMM debug) even if the driver
does not implement conf_tx() handler.
In addition, fix the ACM-based AC downgrade code to not use the
highest priority in error cases. We need to break the loop to get the
correct AC_BK value (3) instead of returning 0 (which would indicate
AC_VO). The comment here was not really very useful either, so let's
provide somewhat more helpful description of the situation.
Since it is very unlikely that the ACM flag would be set for AC_BK and
AC_BE, these bugs are not likely to be seen in real life networks.
Anyway, better do these things correctly should someone really use
silly AP configuration (and to pass some functionality tests, too).
Remove the TODO comment about handling ACM. Downgrading AC is
perfectly valid mechanism for ACM. Eventually, we may add support for
WMM-AC and send a request for a TS, but anyway, that functionality
won't be here at the location of this TODO comment.

ppp: ppp_mp_explode() redesign
I found the PPP subsystem to not work properly when connecting channels
with different speeds to the same bundle.
Problem Description:
As the "ppp_mp_explode" function fragments the sk_buff buffer evenly
among the PPP channels that are connected to a certain PPP unit to
make up a bundle, if we are transmitting using an upper layer protocol
that requires an Ack before sending the next packet (like TCP/IP for
example), we will have a bandwidth bottleneck on the slowest channel
of the bundle.
Let's clarify by an example. Let's consider a scenario where we have
two PPP links making up a bundle: a slow link (10KB/sec) and a fast
link (1000KB/sec) working at the best (full bandwidth). On the top we
have a TCP/IP stack sending a 1000 Bytes sk_buff buffer down to the
PPP subsystem. The "ppp_mp_explode" function will divide the buffer in
two fragments of 500B each (we are neglecting all the headers, crc,
flags etc?.). Before the TCP/IP stack sends out the next buffer, it
will have to wait for the ACK response from the remote peer, so it
will have to wait for both fragments to have been sent over the two
PPP links, received by the remote peer and reconstructed. The
resulting behaviour is that, rather than having a bundle working
@1010KB/sec (the sum of the channels bandwidths), we'll have a bundle
working @20KB/sec (the double of the slowest channels bandwidth).
Problem Solution:
The problem has been solved by redesigning the "ppp_mp_explode"
function in such a way to make it split the sk_buff buffer according
to the speeds of the underlying PPP channels (the speeds of the serial
interfaces respectively attached to the PPP channels). Referring to
the above example, the redesigned "ppp_mp_explode" function will now
divide the 1000 Bytes buffer into two fragments whose sizes are set
according to the speeds of the channels where they are going to be
sent on (e.g . 10 Byets on 10KB/sec channel and 990 Bytes on
1000KB/sec channel). The reworked function grants the same
performances of the original one in optimal working conditions (i.e. a
bundle made up of PPP links all working at the same speed), while
greatly improving performances on the bundles made up of channels
working at different speeds.

An ARP announcement is identical to the ARP Probe described above,

"
But it same time this goes wrong with RFC5227.
"
The 'sender IP address' field MUST be set to all zeroes; this is to avoid
polluting ARP caches in other hosts on the same link in the case
where the address turns out to be already in use by another host.
"
When ARP proxy configured, it must not answer to both cases, because
it is address conflict verification in any case. For Windows it is just
causing to detect false "ip conflict". Already there is code for RFC5227, so
just trivially we just check also if source ip == target ip.

Based on patch written by Ben McKeegan for 2.4.x kernels. It is archived
at http://www.candelatech.com/~greear/vlan/howto.html#tulip
I've adjusted a few things to make it apply on 2.6.x kernels.
Tested on D-Link DFE-570TX quad-fastethernet card.

phylib: convert state_queue work to delayed_work
It closes a race in phy_stop_machine when reprogramming of phy_timer
(from phy_state_machine) happens between del_timer_sync and cancel_work_sync.
Without this change it could lead to crash if phy_device would be freed after
phy_stop_machine (timer would fire and schedule freed work).

macvlan: Deterministic ingress packet delivery
Changing the mac address when a macvlan device is up will leave the
device on the wrong hash chain making it impossible to receive
packets.
There is no checking of the mac address set on the macvlan. Allowing
a misconfiguration to grab packets from the the underlying device or
another macvlan.
To resolve these problems I update the hash table of macvlans when the
mac address of a macvlan changes, and when updating the hash table
I verify that the new mac address is usable.
The result is well defined and predictable if not perfect handling of
mac vlan mac addresses.
To keep the code clear I have created a set of hash table maintenance
in macvlan so I am not open coding the hash function and the logic
needed to update the hash table all over the place.

sctp: add Adaptation Layer Indication parameter only when it's set

Each adaptation layer that is defined that wishes
to use this parameter MUST specify an adaptation code point in an
appropriate RFC defining its use and meaning.
If the user has not set one - assume they don't want to sent the param

Rationale - Currently the IANA defines zero as reserved - and
1 as the only valid value - so we consider zero to be unset - to save
adding a boolean to the socket structure.

Linux TCP stack ignores this option and sends back a SYN+ACK packet
