[TCP]: Add bytes_acked (ABC) clearing to FRTO too
I was reading tcp_enter_loss while looking for Cedric's bug and
noticed bytes_acked adjustment is missing from FRTO side.
Since bytes_acked will only be used in tcp_cong_avoid, I think
it's safe to assume RTO would be spurious. During FRTO cwnd
will be not controlled by tcp_cong_avoid and if FRTO calls for
conventional recovery, cwnd is adjusted and the result of wrong
assumption is cleared from bytes_acked. If RTO was in fact
spurious, we did normal ABC already and can continue without

The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel

Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue

pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet

ibm_emac: Convert to use napi_struct independent of struct net_device
Commit da3dedd9 ("[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct
net_device objects.") changed the interface to NAPI polling. Fix up
the ibm_newemac driver so that it works with this new interface. This
is actually a nice cleanup because ibm_newemac is one of the drivers
that wants to have multiple NAPI structures for a single net_device.
Compile-tested only as I don't have a system that uses the ibm_newemac
driver. This conversion the conversion for the ibm_emac driver that
was tested on real PowerPC 440SPe hardware.

[PATCH] ieee80211_if_set_type: make check for master dev more explicit
Problem description by Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>:
"This sequence of events causes loss of connectivity:
<plug in>
<associate as normal in managed mode>
ifconfig eth7 down
iwconfig eth7 mode monitor
ifconfig eth7 up
ifconfig eth7 down
iwconfig eth7 mode managed
<associate as normal>
At this point you are associated but TX does not work. This is because
the eth7 hard_start_xmit is still ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit."
The problem is caused by ieee80211_if_set_type checking for a non-zero
hard_start_xmit pointer value in order to avoid changing that value for
master devices. The fix is to make that check more explicitly linked to
master devices rather than simply checking if the value has been
previously set.

[PATCH] libertas link error due to gcc `smartness'
Some versions of gcc replace strstr() calls with a single-character `needle'
parameter by strchr() behind our back. This causes a link error if strchr() is
defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k):
| drivers/built-in.o: In function `libertas_parse_chan':
| linux/drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c:209: undefined reference to `strchr'
| drivers/built-in.o: In function `libertas_parse_ssid':
| linux/drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c:260: undefined reference to `strchr'
Avoid this by explicitly calling strchr() instead.
Also include <linux/string.h>, because this file calls lots of str*() routines.
