My static checker marks everything from ntohl() as untrusted and it
complains we could have an underflow problem doing:

	return (u32 *)&amp;ary-&gt;wc_array[nchunks];

Also on 32 bit systems the upper bound check could overflow.

Reduce the uses of this unnecessary typedef.

Done via perl script:

$ git grep --name-only -w ctl_table net | \
  xargs perl -p -i -e '\
	sub trim { my ($local) = @_; $local =~ s/(^\s+|\s+$)//g; return $local; } \
        s/\b(?&lt;!struct\s)ctl_table\b(\s*\*\s*|\s+\w+)/"struct ctl_table " . trim($1)/ge'

Reflow the modified lines that now exceed 80 columns.

Pull nfsd changes from J Bruce Fields:
 "Miscellaneous bugfixes, plus:

   - An overhaul of the DRC cache by Jeff Layton.  The main effect is
     just to make it larger.  This decreases the chances of intermittent
     errors especially in the UDP case.  But we'll need to watch for any
     reports of performance regressions.

   - Containerized nfsd: with some limitations, we now support
     per-container nfs-service, thanks to extensive work from Stanislav
     Kinsbursky over the last year."

Some notes about conflicts, since there were *two* non-data semantic
conflicts here:

 - idr_remove_all() had been added by a memory leak fix, but has since
   become deprecated since idr_destroy() does it for us now.

 - xs_local_connect() had been added by this branch to make AF_LOCAL
   connections be synchronous, but in the meantime Trond had changed the
   calling convention in order to avoid a RCU dereference.

There were a couple of more obvious actual source-level conflicts due to
the hlist traversal changes and one just due to code changes next to
each other, but those were trivial.

* 'for-3.9' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (49 commits)
  SUNRPC: make AF_LOCAL connect synchronous
  nfsd: fix compiler warning about ambiguous types in nfsd_cache_csum

<id>7083e42ee2ff43a11481e0e7211ec4f9ac68cb79</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch enhances the IB core support for Memory Windows (MWs).

MWs allow an application to have better/flexible control over remote
access to memory.

Two types of MWs are supported, with the second type having two flavors:

    Type 1  - associated with PD only
    Type 2A - associated with QPN only
    Type 2B - associated with PD and QPN

Applications can allocate a MW once, and then repeatedly bind the MW
to different ranges in MRs that are associated to the same PD. Type 1
windows are bound through a verb, while type 2 windows are bound by
posting a work request.

The 32-bit memory key is composed of a 24-bit index and an 8-bit
key. The key is changed with each bind, thus allowing more control
over the peer's use of the memory key.

The changes introduced are the following:

* add memory window type enum and a corresponding parameter to ib_alloc_mw.
* type 2 memory window bind work request support.
* create a struct that contains the common part of the bind verb struct
  ibv_mw_bind and the bind work request into a single struct.
* add the ib_inc_rkey helper function to advance the tag part of an rkey.

Consumer interface details:

* new device capability flags IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A and
  IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2B are added to indicate device support
  for these features.

  Devices can set either IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A or
  IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2B if it supports type 2A or type 2B
  memory windows. It can set neither to indicate it doesn't support
  type 2 windows at all.

* modify existing provides and consumers code to the new param of
  ib_alloc_mw and the ib_mw_bind_info structure
