Dmitry reported a warning [1] showing that we were calling
net_disable_timestamp() -&gt; static_key_slow_dec() from a non
process context.

Grabbing a mutex while holding a spinlock or rcu_read_lock()
is not allowed.

As Cong suggested, we now use a work queue.

It is possible netstamp_clear() exits while netstamp_needed_deferred
is not zero, but it is probably not worth trying to do better than that.

netstamp_needed_deferred atomic tracks the exact number of deferred
decrements.

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

The GRO path has a fast-path where we avoid calling pskb_may_pull
and pskb_expand by directly accessing frag0.  However, this should
only be done if we have enough tailroom in the skb as otherwise
we'll have to expand it later anyway.

This patch adds the check by capping frag0_len with the skb tailroom.

ktime is a union because the initial implementation stored the time in
scalar nanoseconds on 64 bit machine and in a endianess optimized timespec
variant for 32bit machines. The Y2038 cleanup removed the timespec variant
and switched everything to scalar nanoseconds. The union remained, but
become completely pointless.

Get rid of the union and just keep ktime_t as simple typedef of type s64.

The conversion was done with coccinelle and some manual mopping up.

Pull smp hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This is the final round of converting the notifier mess to the state
  machine. The removal of the notifiers and the related infrastructure
  will happen around rc1, as there are conversions outstanding in other
  trees.

  The whole exercise removed about 2000 lines of code in total and in
  course of the conversion several dozen bugs got fixed. The new
  mechanism allows to test almost every hotplug step standalone, so
  usage sites can exercise all transitions extensively.

  There is more room for improvement, like integrating all the
  pointlessly different architecture mechanisms of synchronizing,
  setting cpus online etc into the core code"

Add an IFLA_XDP_FLAGS attribute that can be passed for setting up
XDP along with IFLA_XDP_FD, which eventually allows user space to
implement typical add/replace/delete logic for programs. Right now,
calling into dev_change_xdp_fd() will always replace previous programs.

When passed XDP_FLAGS_UPDATE_IF_NOEXIST, we can handle this more
graceful when requested by returning -EBUSY in case we try to
attach a new program, but we find that another one is already
attached. This will be used by upcoming front-end for iproute2 as
well.
