Ideally we should have a directory of drivers and a link to the 'active'
driver. For now just show the first device which is effectively the existing
semantics without a warning.

This is an update on the original buggy patch that I then forgot to
resubmit. Confusingly it was proposed by Red Hat, written by Etched Pixels
fixed and submitted by Intel ...

This matches Bartlomiej's patch for ide_pci_generic:
c339dfdd65b52bfd947ab29d1210314a2f6d622d

In the libata case netcell has its own mini driver. I suspect this fix is
actually only needed for some firmware revs but it does no harm either way.

This patch fixes a bug which unconfigured struct tcf_proto keeps
chaining in tc_ctl_tfilter(), and avoids kernel panic in
cls_cgroup_classify() when we use cls_cgroup.

When we execute 'tc filter add', tcf_proto is allocated, initialized
by classifier's init(), and chained.  After it's chained,
tc_ctl_tfilter() calls classifier's change().  When classifier's
change() fails, tc_ctl_tfilter() does not free and keeps tcf_proto.

In addition, cls_cgroup is initialized in change() not in init().  It
accesses unconfigured struct tcf_proto which is chained before
change(), then hits Oops.

	Patch to fix bad length checking in e1000.  E1000 by default does two
things:

1) Spans rx descriptors for packets that don't fit into 1 skb on recieve
2) Strips the crc from a frame by subtracting 4 bytes from the length prior to
doing an skb_put

Since the e1000 driver isn't written to support receiving packets that span
multiple rx buffers, it checks the End of Packet bit of every frame, and
discards it if its not set.  This places us in a situation where, if we have a
spanning packet, the first part is discarded, but the second part is not (since
it is the end of packet, and it passes the EOP bit test).  If the second part of
the frame is small (4 bytes or less), we subtract 4 from it to remove its crc,
underflow the length, and wind up in skb_over_panic, when we try to skb_put a
huge number of bytes into the skb.  This amounts to a remote DOS attack through
careful selection of frame size in relation to interface MTU.  The fix for this
is already in the e1000e driver, as well as the e1000 sourceforge driver, but no
one ever pushed it to e1000.  This is lifted straight from e1000e, and prevents
small frames from causing the underflow described above

<title>forcedeth: add phy_power_down parameter, leave phy powered up by default (v2)</title>

Add a phy_power_down parameter to forcedeth: set to 1 to power down the
phy and disable the link when an interface goes down; set to 0 to always
leave the phy powered up.

The phy power state persists across reboots; Windows, some BIOSes, and
older versions of Linux don't bother to power up the phy again, forcing
users to remove all power to get the interface working (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13072).  Leaving the phy
powered on is the safest default behavior.  Users accustomed to seeing
the link state reflect the interface state and/or wanting to minimize
power consumption can set phy_power_down=1 if compatibility with other
OSes is not an issue.
