bonding: fix set_multicast_list locking
This patch eliminates a problem (reported by lockdep) in the
bond_set_multicast_list function. It first reduces the locking on
bond->lock to a simple read_lock, and second, adds netif_tx locking
around the bonding mc_list manipulations that occur outside of the
set_multicast_list function.
The original problem was related to IPv6 addrconf activity.

Subject: [PATCH, REPOST] Fix/Rewrite of the mipsnet driver
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Hello All,
currently the mipsnet driver fails after transmitting a number of
packages because SKBs are allocated but never freed. I fixed that
and coudn't refrain from removing the most egregious warts.
- mipsnet.h folded into mipsnet.c, as it doesn't provide any
useful external interface.
- Free SKB after transmission.
- Call free_irq in mipsnet_close, to balance the request_irq in
mipsnet_open.
- Removed duplicate read of rxDataCount.
- Some identifiers are now less verbose.
- Removed dead and/or unnecessarily complex code.
- Code formatting fixes.
Tested on Qemu's mipssim emulation, with this patch it can boot a
Debian NFSroot.

macb: Fix section mismatch and shrink runtime footprint
macb devices are only found integrated on SoCs, so they can't be
hotplugged. Thus, the probe() and exit() functions can be __init and
__exit, respectively. By using platform_driver_probe() instead of
platform_driver_register(), there won't be any references to the
discarded probe() function after the driver has loaded.
This also fixes a section mismatch due to macb_probe(), defined as
__devinit, calling macb_get_hwaddr, defined as __init.

fix writev regression: pan hanging unkillable and un-straceable
Frederik Himpe reported an unkillable and un-straceable pan process.
Zero length iovecs can go into an infinite loop in writev, because the
iovec iterator does not always advance over them.
The sequence required to trigger this is not trivial. I think it
requires that a zero-length iovec be followed by a non-zero-length iovec
which causes a pagefault in the atomic usercopy. This causes the writev
code to drop back into single-segment copy mode, which then tries to
copy the 0 bytes of the zero-length iovec; a zero length copy looks like
a failure though, so it loops.
Put a test into iov_iter_advance to catch zero-length iovecs. We could
just put the test in the fallback path, but I feel it is more robust to
skip over zero-length iovecs throughout the code (iovec iterator may be
used in filesystems too, so it should be robust).
All those 2-byte values denoting the different capabilities are being written to
the local copy of the caps buffer without being converted to big endian for
simplicity of usage and shorter code later. Also, we add some comments stating
which are the fields of the caps page in question in order to alleviate the
cryptic pointer casting exercises as in e.g. idetape_get_mode_sense_results().
There should be no functional changes resulting from this patch.
SELECT_DRIVE() is called by IDE core code in start_request() before device
driver's ->do_request method. In ide-scsi case ->do_request is implemented
by idescsi_do_request() which is also the only user of idescsi_issue_pc().
* Factor out code for finding ide_hwifs[] slot from ide_register_hw()
to ide_deprecated_find_port().
* Convert bast-ide, ide-cs and delkin_cb host drivers to use ide_device_add()
instead of ide_register_hw() (while at it drop doing "ide_unregister()" loop
which tries to unregister _all_ IDE interfaces if useable ide_hwifs[] slot
cannot be find).
This patch leaves us with only two ide_register_hw() users:
