The mppe_decompress() function required a buffer that is 1 byte too
small when receiving a message of mru size. This fixes buffer

I happened to notice that a system with an NVidia NIC using the
forcedeth driver won't wake-on-LAN if the interface was in promiscuous
mode when you power off. By experiment, it looks like
the hardware needs to have NvRegPacketFilterFlags set to
NVREG_PFF_ALWAYS|NVREG_PFF_MYADDR (i.e., receive unicast packets to my
address) in order for WoL to work.

Modify carrier state determination for 802.3ad mode to comply
with section 43.3.9 of IEEE 802.3, which requires that "Links that are
not successful candidates for aggregation (e.g., links that are attached
to other devices that cannot perform aggregation or links that have been
manually configured to be non-aggregatable) are enabled to operate as
individual IEEE 802.3 links."

The following patch (based on a patch from Stephen Hemminger
<shemminger@linux-foundation.org>) removes use after free conditions in
the unregister path for the bonding master. Without this patch, an
operation of the form "echo -bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters"
would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in sysfs. I was not able to
induce the failure with the non-sysfs code path, but for consistency I
updated that code as well.
I also did some testing of the bonding /proc file being open
while the bond is being deleted, and didn't see any problems there.

It doesn't look like spidernet hardware can really checksum all protocols,
the code looks like it does IPV4 only. If so, it should use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM
instead of NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.
The driver doesn't need it's own get/set for ethtool tx csum, and it
should use the standard ethtool_op_get_link.

The terminated RX ring will cause trouble during the RX ram full
conditions, leading to a hung driver, as the hardware can't find
the next descr. There is no real reason to terminate the RX ring;
it doesn't make the operation any smooother, and it does
require an extra sync. So don't do it.

This patch fixes a rare deadlock that can occur when the kernel
is not able to empty out the RX ring quickly enough. Below follows
a detailed description of the bug and the fix.
As long as the OS can empty out the RX buffers at a rate faster than
the hardware can fill them, there is no problem. If, for some reason,
the OS fails to empty the RX ring fast enough, the hardware GDACTDPA
pointer will catch up to the head, notice the not-empty condition,
ad stop. However, RX packets may still continue arriving on the wire.
The spidernet chip can save some limited number of these in local RAM.
When this local ram fills up, the spider chip will issue an interrupt
indicating this (GHIINT0STS will show ERRINT, and the GRMFLLINT bit
will be set in GHIINT1STS). When te RX ram full condition occurs,
a certain bug/feature is triggered that has to be specially handled.
This section describes the special handling for this condition.
When the OS finally has a chance to run, it will empty out the RX ring.
In particular, it will clear the descriptor on which the hardware had
stopped. However, once the hardware has decided that a certain
descriptor is invalid, it will not restart at that descriptor; instead
it will restart at the next descr. This potentially will lead to a
deadlock condition, as the tail pointer will be pointing at this descr,
which, from the OS point of view, is empty; the OS will be waiting for
this descr to be filled. However, the hardware has skipped this descr,
and is filling the next descrs. Since the OS doesn't see this, there
is a potential deadlock, with the OS waiting for one descr to fill,
while the hardware is waiting for a differen set of descrs to become
empty.
A call to show_rx_chain() at this point indicates the nature of the
problem. A typical print when the network is hung shows the following:
net eth1: Spider RX RAM full, incoming packets might be discarded!
net eth1: Total number of descrs=256
net eth1: Chain tail located at descr=255
net eth1: Chain head is at 255
net eth1: HW curr desc (GDACTDPA) is at 0
net eth1: Have 1 descrs with stat=xa0800000
net eth1: HW next desc (GDACNEXTDA) is at 1
net eth1: Have 127 descrs with stat=x40800101
net eth1: Have 1 descrs with stat=x40800001
net eth1: Have 126 descrs with stat=x40800101
net eth1: Last 1 descrs with stat=xa0800000
Both the tail and head pointers are pointing at descr 255, which is
marked xa... which is "empty". Thus, from the OS point of view, there
is nothing to be done. In particular, there is the implicit assumption
that everything in front of the "empty" descr must surely also be empty,
as explained in the last section. The OS is waiting for descr 255 to
become non-empty, which, in this case, will never happen.
The HW pointer is at descr 0. This descr is marked 0x4.. or "full".
Since its already full, the hardware can do nothing more, and thus has
halted processing. Notice that descrs 0 through 254 are all marked
"full", while descr 254 and 255 are empty. (The "Last 1 descrs" is
descr 254, since tail was at 255.) Thus, the system is deadlocked,
and there can be no forward progress; the OS thinks there's nothing
to do, and the hardware has nowhere to put incoming data.
This bug/feature is worked around with the spider_net_resync_head_ptr()
routine. When the driver receives RX interrupts, but an examination
of the RX chain seems to show it is empty, then it is probable that
the hardware has skipped a descr or two (sometimes dozens under heavy
network conditions). The spider_net_resync_head_ptr() subroutine will
search the ring for the next full descr, and the driver will resume
operations there. Since this will leave "holes" in the ring, there
is also a spider_net_resync_tail_ptr() that will skip over such holes.

Avoid kernel crash in mm/slab.c due to double-free of pointer.
If the ethernet interface is brought down while there is still
RX traffic in flight, the device shutdown routine can end up
trying to double-free an skb, leading to a crash in mm/slab.c
Avoid the double-free by nulling out the skb pointer.

interface revision and then using the correct interface based on the

New ConnectX firmware introduces FW command interface revision 2,
which requires that for each QP, a chunk of send queue entries (the
"headroom") is kept marked as invalid, so that the HCA doesn't get
confused if it prefetches entries that haven't been posted yet. Add
code to the driver to do this, and also update the user ABI so that
userspace can request that the prefetcher be turned off for userspace
QPs (we just leave the prefetcher on for all kernel QPs).
Unfortunately, marking send queue entries this way is confuses older
firmware, so we change the driver to allow only FW command interface
revisions 2. This means that users will have to update their firmware
to work with the new driver, but the firmware is changing quickly and
the old firmware has lots of other bugs anyway, so this shouldn't be too
big a deal.
Based on a patch from Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>.

This reverts commit d52df4a35af569071fda3f4eb08e47cc7023f094.
This patch attempted to fix e100 for non-cache coherent memory
architectures by using the cb style code that eepro100 had and using
the EL and s bits from the RFD list. Unfortunately the hardware
doesn't work exactly like this and therefore this patch actually
breaks e100. Reverting the change brings it back to the previously
known good state for 2.6.22. The pending rewrite in progress to this
code can then be safely merged later.

Prevent mppe_decompress() from generating "osize too small" errors when
checking for output buffer size. When receiving a packet of mru size the
output buffer for decrypted data is 1 byte too small since
mppe_decompress() tries to account for possible PFC, however later in code
it is assumed no PFC.
Adjusting the check prevented these errors from occurring.

With firmware 5.220.11.p5, this allows to specify the anycast addresses the
device will listen to.
The anycast address range is C0:27:C0:27:C0:XX where XX goes from 00 to 1F (or
0 to 31 in dec). The value to write on anycast_mask will specify which
addresses the device listens to. Bits in a 32 bit int are numbered from 0
(least significative bit) to 31. A specific address ending in YY will be
listened to if bit YY in the value is set to one.
Examples:
0x00000000 : do not listen to any anycast address
0xFFFFFFFF : listen to every anycast address from :00 to :1F
0x00000013 : listen to anycast addresses :00, :01 and :04
