commit f1b00f4dab29b57bdf1bc03ef12020b280fd2a72 upstream.

Commit d83579e2a50ac68389e6b4c58b845c702cf37516 incorporated some
changes from the vendor driver that made it newly important that the
calculated hardware version correctly include the CHIP_92D bit, as all
of the IS_92D_* macros were changed to depend on it.  However, this bit
was being unset for dual-mac, dual-phy devices.  The vendor driver
behavior was modified to not do this, but unfortunately this change was
not picked up along with the others.  This caused scanning in the 2.4GHz
band to be broken, and possibly other bugs as well.

This patch brings the version calculation logic in parity with the
vendor driver in this regard, and in doing so fixes the regression.
However, the version calculation code in general continues to be largely
incoherent and messy, and needs to be cleaned up.

<title>mwifiex: correction in mcs index check</title>

commit fe020120cb863ba918c6d603345342a880272c4d upstream.

mwifiex driver supports 2x2 chips as well. Hence valid mcs values
are 0 to 15. The check for mcs index is corrected in this patch.

For example: if 40MHz is enabled and mcs index is 11, "iw link"
command would show "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s" without this patch.
Now it shows "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s MCS 11 40Mhz" with the patch.

<title>r8169: RxConfig hack for the 8168evl.</title>

<content type='text'>
commit eb2dc35d99028b698cdedba4f5522bc43e576bd2 upstream.

The 8168evl (RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_34) based Gigabyte GA-990FXA motherboards
are very prone to NETDEV watchdog problems without this change. See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42899 for instance.

I don't know why it *works*. It's depressingly effective though.

For the record:
- the problem may go along IOMMU (AMD-Vi) errors but it really looks
  like a red herring.
- the patch sets the RX_MULTI_EN bit. If the 8168c doc is any guide,
  the chipset now fetches several Rx descriptors at a time.
- long ago the driver ignored the RX_MULTI_EN bit.
  e542a2269f232d61270ceddd42b73a4348dee2bb changed the RxConfig
  settings. Whatever the problem it's now labeled a regression.
- Realtek's own driver can identify two different 8168evl devices
  (CFG_METHOD_16 and CFG_METHOD_17) where the r8169 driver only
  sees one. It sucks.

commit a64d49c3dd504b685f9742a2f3dcb11fb8e4345f upstream.

It was recently reported that moving a bonding device between network
namespaces causes warnings from /proc.  It turns out after the move we
were trying to add and to remove the /proc/net/bonding entries from the
wrong network namespace.

Move the bonding /proc registration code into the NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_UNREGISTER events where the proc registration and unregistration
will always happen at the right time.

commit 96ca7ffe748bf91f851e6aa4479aa11c8b1122ba upstream.

The bonding debugfs support has been broken in the presence of network
namespaces since it has been added.  The debugfs support does not handle
multiple bonding devices with the same name in different network
namespaces.

I haven't had any bug reports, and I'm not interested in getting any.
Disable the debugfs support when network namespaces are enabled.

commit 8e83989106562326bfd6aaf92174fe138efd026b upstream.

It was observed that during multiple reboots nfs hangs. The status of
receive descriptors shows that all the descriptors were in control of
CPU, and none were assigned to DMA.
Also the DMA status register confirmed that the Rx buffer is
unavailable.

This patch adds the fix for the same by adding the memory barriers to
ascertain that the all instructions before enabling the Rx or Tx DMA are
completed which involves the proper setting of the ownership bit in DMA
descriptors.
