In commit 16ad3f4022bb ("tipc: introduce variable window congestion
control"), we allow link window to change with the congestion avoidance
algorithm. However, there is a bug that during the slow-start if packet
retransmission occurs, the link will enter the fast-recovery phase, set
its window to the 'ssthresh' which is never less than 300, so the link
window suddenly increases to that limit instead of decreasing.

Consequently, two issues have been observed:

- For broadcast-link: it can leave a gap between the link queues that a
new packet will be inserted and sent before the previous ones, i.e. not
in-order.

- For unicast: the algorithm does not work as expected, the link window
jumps to the slow-start threshold whereas packet retransmission occurs.

This commit fixes the issues by avoiding such the link window increase,
but still decreasing if the 'ssthresh' is lowered.

Returning the error code via a 'int *ret' when the function returns a
pointer is very un-kernely and causes gcc 10's static analysis to choke:

net/rds/message.c: In function ‘rds_message_map_pages’:
net/rds/message.c:358:10: warning: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
  358 |   return ERR_PTR(ret);

Use a typical ERR_PTR return instead.

Add a check that the headroom cannot be larger than the available
space in the chunk. In the current code, a malicious user can set the
headroom to a value larger than the chunk size minus the fixed XDP
headroom. That way packets with a length larger than the supported
size in the umem could get accepted and result in an out-of-bounds
write.

Previously mesh channel switch happens if beacon contains
CSA IE without checking the mesh peer info. Due to that
channel switch happens even if the beacon is not from
its own mesh peer. Fixing that by checking if the CSA
originated from the same mesh network before proceeding
for channel switch.

As evident from above sequence diagram, this race condition isn't specific
to a particular wifi driver but rather the initialization sequence in
ieee80211_register_hw() needs to be fixed. So re-order the initialization
sequence and the updated sequence diagram would look like:

A race condition leading to a kernel crash is observed during invocation
of ieee80211_register_hw() on a dragonboard410c device having wcn36xx
driver built as a loadable module along with a wifi manager in user-space
waiting for a wifi device (wlanX) to be active.

DSA and CPU ports can be configured in two ways. By default, the
driver should configure such ports to there maximum bandwidth. For
most use cases, this is sufficient. When this default is insufficient,
a phylink instance can be bound to such ports, and phylink will
configure the port, e.g. based on fixed-link properties. phylink
assumes the port is initially down. Given that the driver should have
already configured it to its maximum speed, ask the driver to down
the port before instantiating the phylink instance.
