Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Receive packet length needs to be adjust by 2 on RX to accomodate
    the two padding bytes in altera_tse driver.  From Vlastimil Setka.

 2) If rx frame is dropped due to out of memory in macb driver, we leave
    the receive ring descriptors in an undefined state.  From Punnaiah
    Choudary Kalluri

 3) Some netlink subsystems erroneously signal NLM_F_MULTI.  That is
    only for dumps.  Fix from Nicolas Dichtel.

 4) Fix mis-use of raw rt-&gt;rt_pmtu value in ipv4, one must always go via
    the ipv4_mtu() helper.  From Herbert Xu.

 5) Fix null deref in bridge netfilter, and miscalculated lengths in
    jump/goto nf_tables verdicts.  From Florian Westphal.

 6) Unhash ping sockets properly.

 7) Software implementation of BPF divide did 64/32 rather than 64/64
    bit divide.  The JITs got it right.  Fix from Alexei Starovoitov.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Three regression fixes this time, one for a recent regression in the
  cpuidle core affecting multiple systems, one for an inadvertently
  added duplicate typedef in ACPICA that breaks compilation with GCC 4.5
  and one for an ACPI Smart Battery Subsystem driver regression
  introduced during the 3.18 cycle (stable-candidate).

  Specifics:

   - Fix for a regression in the cpuidle core introduced by one of the
     recent commits in the clockevents_notify() removal series that put
     a call to a function which had to be executed with disabled
     interrupts into a code path running with enabled interrupts (Rafael
     J Wysocki)

   - Fix for a build problem in ACPICA (with GCC 4.5) introduced by one
     of the recent ACPICA tools commits that added a duplicate typedef
     to one of the ACPICA's header files by mistake (Olaf Hering)

   - Fix for a regression in the ACPI SBS (Smart Battery Subsystem)
     driver introduced during the 3.18 development cycle causing the
     smart battery manager to be marked as not present when it should be
     marked as present (Chris Bainbridge)"

Commit 335f49196fd6 (sched/idle: Use explicit broadcast oneshot
control function) replaced clockevents_notify() invocations in
cpuidle_idle_call() with direct calls to tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit(), but it overlooked the fact that
interrupts were already enabled before calling the latter which
led to functional breakage on systems using idle states with the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set.

Fix that by moving the invocations of tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() down into cpuidle_enter_state() where
interrupts are still disabled when tick_broadcast_exit() is
called.  Also ensure that interrupts will be disabled before
running tick_broadcast_exit() even if they have been enabled by
the idle state's -&gt;enter callback.  Trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
that case, as we generally don't want that to happen for states
with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set.

This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca17c54817cf814b4b5aa60478c6df27
and 80f7fdb1c7f0f9266421f823964fd1962681f6ce.

The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support
the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it
with synchronized TSC.  Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed
due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare
that it's mostly theoretical.

As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the
additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task
migration notifier.

Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at
all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

<title>kexec: allocate the kexec control page with KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFP</title>

Introduce KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFP to allow the architecture code
to override the gfp flags of the allocation for the kexec control
page. The loop in kimage_alloc_normal_control_pages allocates pages
with GFP_KERNEL until a page is found that happens to have an
address smaller than the KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT. On systems
with a large memory size but a small KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT
the loop will keep allocating memory until the oom killer steps in.
