[TG3]: 5780 PHY fixes
Fix 5780 PHY related problems:
1. MAC_RX_MODE reset must be done before setting up the MAC_MODE
register on 5705_PLUS chips or the chip will stop receiving after
a while. The MAC_RX_MODE reset is needed to prevent intermittently
losing the first receive packet on serdes chips.
2. Skip MAC loopback test on 5780 because of hardware errata. Normal
traffic including PHY loopback is not affected by the errata.
3. PHY loopback fails intermittently on 5708S and this is fixed by
putting the PHY in loopback mode first before programming the MAC
mode register. A MAC_RX_MODE reset is also added.
4. Return -EINVAL in tg3_nway_reset() if device is in TBI mode. Allow

[NETFILTER]: Fix invalid module autoloading by splitting iptable_nat
When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all
distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink
interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko.
This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate
the nat code, even if you don't want it.
This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the
iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko). Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will
only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend. ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate
some resources, but not affect runtime performance.
This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters
(nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

One is that we forgot to set the "secondary" bit in the hash PTEs when

The other one is on non-LPAR machines (like Apple G5s), flush_hash_range()

This patch fixes a number of bugs. It cannot be reasonably split up in
multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same
function:
Bug #1:
The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held. Therefore, the
call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be
moved outside of the locked section. This fixes a number of 2.6.14-rcX
oops and deadlock reports.
Bug #2:
We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without
holding a lock. Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race
with another CPU.
Bug #3:
ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh
(and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be
performed. Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb
parameter bein non-null. We now re-introduce a non-accounting
"ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.

[TCP]: Adjust Reno SACK estimate in tcp_fragment
Since the introduction of TSO pcount a year ago, it has been possible
for tcp_fragment() to cause packets_out to decrease. Prior to that,
tcp_retrans_try_collapse() was the only way for that to happen on the

When this happens with Reno, it is possible for sasked_out to become
invalid because it is only an estimate and not tied to any particular
packet on the retransmission queue.
Therefore we need to adjust sacked_out as well as left_out in the Reno
case. The following patch does exactly that.

In the code, bd_claim() returns either 0 or -EBUSY, but in this case busy
means "somebody other than sys_swapon has already claimed this", and

The current code doesn't handle well general protection faults on the host -
it thinks that cr2 is always the address of a page fault. While actually, on
general protection faults, that address is not accessible, so we'd better
assume we couldn't satisfy the fault. Currently instead we think we've fixed
it, so we go back, retry the instruction and fault again endlessly.
This leads to the kernel hanging when doing copy_from_user(dest, -1, ...) in
TT mode, since reading *(-1) causes a GFP, and we don't support kernel
preemption.

The patch makes buf_check_size to return flag and all functions that use
it check if they should perform the operation, or exit.

[PATCH] suspend: cleanup calling of power off methods.
In the lead up to 2.6.13 I fixed a large number of reboot problems by
making the calling conventions consistent. Despite checking and double
checking my work it appears I missed an obvious one.
The S4 suspend code for PM_DISK_PLATFORM was also calling device_shutdown
without setting system_state, and was not calling the appropriate
reboot_notifier.
This patch fixes the bug by replacing the call of device_suspend with
kernel_poweroff_prepare.
Various forms of this failure have been fixed and tracked for a while.

[PATCH] reboot: comment and factor the main reboot functions
In the lead up to 2.6.13 I fixed a large number of reboot problems by
making the calling conventions consistent. Despite checking and double
checking my work it appears I missed an obvious one.
This first patch simply refactors the reboot routines so all of the
preparation for various kinds of reboots are in their own functions.
Making it very hard to get the various kinds of reboot out of sync.

[IA64] Wire in the MCA/INIT handler stacks
Wire the MCA/INIT handler stacks into DTR[2] and track them in
IA64_KR(CURRENT_STACK). This gives the MCA/INIT handler stacks the
same TLB status as normal kernel stacks. Reload the old CURRENT_STACK
data on return from OS to SAL.

[PATCH] ub: Comment out unconditional stall clear
This code appears to be more trouble than it's worth, considering that
no normal users reload drivers. So, we comment it for now. It is not
removed outright for the benefit of hackers (that is, myself).
