The driver stores the PCI resource address into 'unsigned long' variable before

This patch revises the logging for link informations of spidernet.
- The link down message is too verbose because auto-negotiation timeout
occurs periodically while an ethernet cable is not connected.
- We want to see the link result, and we think it should be displayed.
In addition to the value of GHIINT0STS, spidernet interrupt handler
should check the values of GHIINT1STS/GHIINT2STS registers at the
beginning of spider_net_interrupt() so as not to drop error
interrupts.
GHIINT1STS/GHIINT2STS registers indicates some of erroneous conditions
in spidernet, and a few bits of GHIINT0STS register reflects these
conditions. But GHIINT0MSK masks these bits, so you should check these
conditions by reading GHIINT1STS/GHIINT2STS registers directly.
- unmask GDAINVAINT. There is an operation to do by spidernet
interrupt handler.
- mask some interrupts. There are no operations in the interrupt handler.
In error and warning printks, always report the netdevice name
instead of the port index (the latter has no meaning when there
are multiple mv643xx_eth silicon blocks in the system.)
mv643xx_eth: identify ports by struct mv643xx_private *
Instead of identifying individual mv643xx ethernet ports by only
their port number, identify them by their struct mv643xx_private *,

- Remove unused MV643XX_DEFAULT_[RT]X_QUEUE_SIZE definitions.
- Remove ETH_TARGET enum -- it isn't used anywhere in the driver,

different MBUS target IDs.

the beacons are received without scanning.
This change·removes the requirement that bss_info_changed needs to be atomic.
The beacons received during scanning are processed from a tasklet, but if we
do not call bss_info_changed for these beacons there is no need for it to be
atomic. This function (bss_info_changed) is called either from workqueue or
ioctl in all other instances.

libertas: convert libertas driver to use an event/cmdresp queue
This patch (co-developed by Dan Williams and Holger Schurig) uses a kfifo
object for events and a swapping buffer scheme for the command response to
preserve the zero-copy semantics of the CF driver and keep memory usage low.
The main thread should only ever touch the buffer indexed by priv->resp_idx,
while the interface code is free to write to the second buffer, then swap
priv->resp_idx under the driver spinlock. The firmware specs only permit
one in-flight command, so there will only ever be one command response to
process at a time.

rt2x00: Only free skb when beacon_update fails
In rt2x00lib_intf_scheduled_iter() we use the hw->beacon_update()
callback function. This means that it should behave similarly as mac80211
when that uses the function.
This means that the skb should only be freed when beacon_update() has failed,
otherwise the driver is the owner and is responsible for freeing the buffer.

mac80211: fix key hwaccel race
The previous key locking patch left a small race: it would be possible
to add a key and take the interface down before the key todo is run so
that hwaccel for that key is enabled on an interface that is down. Avoid
this by running the todo list when an interface is brought up or down.
This patch also fixes a small bug: before this change, a few functions
used the key list without the lock that protects it.

[TCP]: Increase the max_burst threshold from 3 to tp->reordering.
This change is necessary to allow cwnd to grow during persistent
reordering. Cwnd moderation is applied when in the disorder state
and an ack that fills the hole comes in. If the hole was greater
than 3 packets, but less than tp->reordering, cwnd will shrink when
it should not have.

[NET]: Do not allocate unneeded memory for dev->priv alignment.
The alloc_netdev_mq() tries to produce 32-bytes alignment for both
the net_device itself and its private data. The second alignment is
achieved by adding the NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST to the whole size of
the memory to be allocated.
However, for those devices that do not need the private area, this
addition just makes the net_device weight 1024 + 32 = 1068 bytes,
i.e. consume twice as much memory.
Since loopback device is such (sizeof_priv == 0 for it), and each
net namespace creates one, this can save a noticeable amount of
memory for kernel with net namespaces turned on.
After this set the lo device is actually allocated from a size-1024
kmem cache on i386 box even with NETPOLL and WIRELESS_EXT turned on.
