ixgbe_notify_dca cannot be called before driver registration
because it expects driver's klist_devices to be allocated and
initialized. While on it make sure debugfs files are removed
when registration fails.

<title>bonding: remove sysfs before removing devices</title>

We have a race condition if we try to rmmod bonding and simultaneously add
a bond master through sysfs. In bonding_exit() we first remove the devices
(through rtnl_link_unregister() ) and only after that we remove the sysfs.
If we manage to add a device through sysfs after that the devices were
removed - we'll end up with that device/sysfs structure and with the module
unloaded.

Fix this by first removing the sysfs and only after that calling
rtnl_link_unregister().

It would cause no link after suspending or shutdowning when the
nic changes the speed to 10M and connects to a link partner which
forces the speed to 100M.

Check the link partner ability to determine which speed to set.

John W. Linville says:

====================
Here are some more fixes intended for the 3.9 stream...

Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"I had changed the idle handling to simplify it, but broken the
sequencing of commands, at least for ath9k-htc, one patch restores the
sequence. The other patch fixes a crash Jouni found while stress-testing
the remain-on-channel code, when an item is deleted the work struct can
run twice and crash the second time."

As for the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:

"The only fix here is to the passive-no-RX firmware regulatory
enforcement driver support code to not drop auth frames in quick
succession, leading to not being able to connect to APs on passive
channels in certain circumstances."

Don't forget the NFC bits, about which Samuel says:

"This time we have:

- A crash fix for when a DGRAM LLCP socket is listening while the NFC adapter
  is physically removed.
- A potential double skb free when the LLCP socket receive queue is full.
- A fix for properly handling multiple and consecutive LLCP connections, and
  not trash the socket ack log.
- A build failure for the MEI microread physical layer, now that the MEI bus
  APIs have been merged into char-misc-next."

On top of that, Stone Piao provides an mwifiex fix to avoid accessing
beyond the end of a buffer.

Commit 6bbb6d9 "net/mlx4_en: Optimize Rx fast path filter checks" introduced a regression
under which the MAC address read from the card was not converted correctly
(the most significant byte was not handled), fix that.

Now that netdev_rx_handler_unregister contains synchronize_net(), we need
to call it outside of bond-&gt;lock, cause it might sleep. Also, remove the
already unneded synchronize_net().
