Unnecessary casts of void * clutter the code.

These are the remainder casts after several specific
patches to remove netdev_priv and dev_priv.

Done via coccinelle script:

$ cat cast_void_pointer.cocci
@@
type T;
T *pt;
void *pv;
@@

- pt = (T *)pv;
+ pt = pv;

Use the current logging style.

Add #define pr_fmt and remove embedded prefix from formats.

Not converting the current pr_&lt;level&gt; uses to netdev_&lt;level&gt;
because all the output here is nicely prefaced with "8021q: ".

Remove __func__ use from proc registration failure message.

Now that VLAN packets are tagged in dev_hard_start_xmit()
at the bottom of the stack we no longer need to tag them
in the 8021Q module (Except in the !VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR
case).

This allows the accel path and non accel paths to be consolidated.
Here the vlan_tci in the skb is always set and we allow the
stack to add the actual tag in dev_hard_start_xmit().

<title>net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches</title>

<id>28172739f0a276eb8d6ca917b3974c2edb036da3</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.

One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().

Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev-&gt;stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)

Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

<title>net: Enable 64-bit net device statistics on 32-bit architectures</title>

Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure.

On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each
field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with
struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Add an anonymous union in net_device; move
stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64.

Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Drivers that implement
this operation must not update the structure asynchronously.

Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Change callers of
dev_get_stats() accordingly.

__net_init/__net_exit are apparently not going away, so use them
to full extent.

In some cases __net_init was removed, because it was called from
__net_exit code.

String literals are constant, and usually, we can also tag the array
of pointers const too, moving it to the .rodata section.
