Commit 36a1211970193ce215de50ed1e4e1272bc814df1 (netprio_cgroup.h:
dont include module.h from other includes) made the following build
error on ixp4xx_hss pop up:

  CC [M]  drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.o
 drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.c:1412:20: error: expected ';', ',' or ')'
 before string constant
 drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.c:1413:25: error: expected ';', ',' or ')'

 before string constant
 make[8]: *** [drivers/net/wan/ixp4xx_hss.o] Error 1

This was previously hidden because ixp4xx_hss includes linux/hdlc.h which
includes linux/netdevice.h which includes linux/netprio_cgroup.h which
used to include linux/module.h. The real issue was actually present since
the initial commit that added this driver since it uses macros from
linux/module.h without including this file.

Move up the initialization of rc so that failure of pci_alloc_consistent
returns -ENOMEM as well.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// &lt;smpl&gt;

identifier ret;
expression e1,e2;

if (ret &lt; 0)

<title>drivers: net: Remove casts to same type</title>

Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary
and confusing for a human reader.

For example, this cast:

        int y;
        int *p = (int *)&amp;y;

I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these
unnecessary casts.  I manually removed the conversions this
script produces of casts with __force, __iomem and __user.

@@
type T;
T *p;
@@

-       (T *)p

Pull staging tree changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here is the big staging tree pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge
  window.

  Loads of changes here, and we just narrowly added more lines than we
  added:
   622 files changed, 28356 insertions(+), 26059 deletions(-)

  But, good news is that there is a number of subsystems that moved out
  of the staging tree, to their respective "real" portions of the
  kernel.

  Code that moved out was:
	- iio core code
	- mei driver
	- vme core and bridge drivers

  There was one broken network driver that moved into staging as a step
  before it is removed from the tree (pc300), and there was a few new
  drivers added to the tree:
	- new iio drivers
	- gdm72xx wimax USB driver
	- ipack subsystem and 2 drivers

  All of the movements around have acks from the various subsystem
  maintainers, and all of this has been in the linux-next tree for a
  while.

Fixed up various trivial conflicts, along with a non-trivial one found
in -next and pointed out by Olof Johanssen: a clean - but incorrect -

remove races") and commit 0ca7a4c87d27 ("net ax25: Simplify and
cleanup the ax25 sysctl handling")

The former moved around the sysctl register/unregister calls, the
later simply removed them.

With help from Stephen Rothwell.

It was marked as BROKEN back in 2008. It is because the tty handling
in the driver is really broken.

There was some activity in January 2012 to fix the driver, but the
patch was commented to be bogus:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/29/160
and we have not heard back from the author since then:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/28/412

So since nobody stepped in and rewrote the driver, it is time to move
it out of line now. And drop it some time later if nobody comes up
with patches to fix the driver in staging.
