[TCP]: use non-delayed ACK for congestion control RTT
When a delayed ACK representing two packets arrives, there are two RTT
samples available, one for each packet. The first (in order of seq
number) will be artificially long due to the delay waiting for the
second packet, the second will trigger the ACK and so will not itself
be delayed.
According to rfc1323, the SRTT used for RTO calculation should use the
first rtt, so receivers echo the timestamp from the first packet in
the delayed ack. For congestion control however, it seems measuring
delayed ack delay is not desirable as it varies independently of
congestion.
The patch below causes seq_rtt and last_ackt to be updated with any
available later packet rtts which should have less (and hopefully
zero) delack delay. The rtt value then gets passed to
ca_ops->pkts_acked().
Where TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP was set, effort was made to supress RTTs from
within a TSO chunk (!fully_acked), using only the final ACK (which
includes any TSO delay) to generate RTTs. This patch removes these
checks so RTTs are passed for each ACK to ca_ops->pkts_acked().
For non-delay based congestion control (cubic, h-tcp), rtt is
sometimes used for rtt-scaling. In shortening the RTT, this may make
them a little less aggressive. Delay-based schemes (eg vegas, veno,
illinois) should get a cleaner, more accurate congestion signal,
particularly for small cwnds. The congestion control module can
potentially also filter out bad RTTs due to the delayed ack alarm by
looking at the associated cnt which (where delayed acking is in use)
should probably be 1 if the alarm went off or greater if the ACK was
triggered by a packet.

[PCI] Do not enable CRS Software Visibility by default

CRS Software Visibility and MMCONFIG. In particular, it looks like an

Not enabling CRS SV avoids the problem, and as we currently do not
really make good use of the feature anyway (we just time out rather than
do any threaded discovery as suggested by the CRS specs), we're better
off just not enabling it.
This should fix a slew of problem reports with random devices (generally
graphics adapters or fairly high-performance networking cards, since it
only affected PCI-E) not getting properly recognized on these AMD systems.
If we really want to use CRS-SV, we may end up eventually needing a

of "pcibios_enable_crs()" query to call the system-specific code.

tty: fix logic change introduced by wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
Commit 5a52bd4a2dcb570333ce6fe2e16cd311650dbdc8 introduced a subtle logic
change in tty_wait_until_sent(). The original version would only error out
of the 'do { ... } while (timeout)' loop if signal_pending() evaluated to
true; a timeout or break due to an empty buffer would fall out of the loop
and into the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling. The current
implementation will error out on either a pending signal or an empty
buffer, falling through to the tty->driver->wait_until_sent handling only
on a timeout.
The ->wait_until_sent() will not be reached if the buffer empties before
timeout jiffies have elapsed. This behavior differs from that prior to commit 5a52bd4a2dcb570333ce6fe2e16cd311650dbdc8.
I turned this up while using a little serial download utility to bootstrap an
ARM-based eval board. The util worked fine on 2.6.22.x, but consistently
failed on 2.6.23.x. Once I'd determined that, I narrowed things down with git
bisect, and found the above difference in logic in tty_wait_until_sent() by
inspection.
This change reverts the logic flow in tty_wait_until_sent() to match that
prior to the aforementioned commit.

typhoon: set_settings broken on big-endian
One cpu_to_le16() too many when passing argument for TYPHOON_CMD_XCVR_SELECT;
we end up passing host-endian while the hardware expects little-endian. The
other place doing that (typhoon_start_runtime()) does the right thing, so the
card will recover at the next ifconfig up/tx timeout/resume, which limits the
amount of mess, but still, WTF?

typhoon: missing le32_to_cpu() in get_drvinfo
in typhoon_get_drvinfo() .parm2 is little-endian; not critical
since we just get the firmware id flipped in get_drvinfo output
on big-endian boxen, but...

nl_fib_input re-reuses incoming skb to send the reply. This means that this
packet will be freed twice, namely in:
- netlink_unicast_kernel
- on receive path
Use clone to send as a cure, the caller is responsible for kfree_skb on error.
Thanks to Alexey Dobryan, who originally found the problem.
