Dan Carpenter 10ec1bb7e9 inetpeer: initialize ->redirect_genid in inet_getpeer()
kmemcheck complains that ->redirect_genid doesn't get initialized.
Presumably it should be set to zero.

Ben Hutchings 36c9247449 net: WARN if skb_checksum_help() is called on skb requiring segmentation
skb_checksum_help() has never done anything useful with skbs that
require segmentation.  Setting skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE makes
them invalid and provokes a later WARNing in skb_gso_segment().

Passing such an skb to skb_checksum_help() indicates a bug, so we
should warn about it immediately.  Move the warning from
skb_gso_segment() into a shared function, and add gso_type and
gso_size to it.

Documentation states that the KeyMiss flag is only valid if RxFrameOK is
unset, however empirical evidence has shown that this is false.
When KeyMiss is set (and RxFrameOK is 1), the hardware passes a valid frame
which has not been decrypted. The driver then falsely marks the frame
as decrypted, and when using CCMP this corrupts the rx CCMP PN, leading
to connection hangs.

This patch partially reverts:
3d058d7 netfilter: rework user-space expectation helper support
that was applied during the 3.2 development cycle.

After this patch, the tree remains just like before patch bc01bef,
that initially added the preliminary infrastructure.

I decided to partially revert this patch because the approach
that I proposed to resolve this problem is broken in NAT setups.
Moreover, a new infrastructure will be submitted for the 3.3.x
development cycle that resolve the existing issues while
providing a neat solution.

Since nobody has been seriously using this infrastructure in
user-space, the removal of this feature should affect any know
FOSS project (to my knowledge).

Johannes Berg 543d1b92d5 mac80211: fix no-op authorized transitions
When userspace attempts to authorize a station
that is already authorized, nothing happens as
you'd expect. Similarly, when it unauthorizes
a station that is associated, nothing happens.

However, when it unauthorizes a station that
isn't even associated yet, we erroneously try
to move the station to associated. This seems
to happen occasionally as a result of a race
when wpa_supplicant attempts to unauthorize
the port in managed mode. Particularly with my
new patches to keep stations, it can then move
a station into ASSOCIATED state before we have
really associated, which is really confusing.

I introduced this bug in
"mac80211: refactor station state transitions"

Stanislaw Gruszka dfd00c4c8f rt2800pci: fix spurious interrupts generation
Same devices can generate interrupt without properly setting bit in
INT_SOURCE_CSR register (spurious interrupt), what will cause IRQ line
will be disabled by interrupts controller driver.

We discovered that clearing INT_MASK_CSR stops such behaviour. We
previously first read that register, and then clear all know interrupt
sources bits and do not touch reserved bits. After this patch, we write
to all register content (I believe writing to reserved bits on that
register will not cause any problems, I tested that on my rt2800pci
device).

This fix very bad performance problem, practically making device
unusable (since worked without interrupts), reported in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=658451

We previously tried to workaround that issue in commit
4ba7d99978 "rt2800pci: handle spurious
interrupts", but it was reverted in commit
82e5fc2a34
as thing, that will prevent to detect real spurious interrupts.

Dan Carpenter 92c1ff1fa7 ipw2x00: signedness bug handling frame length
This is basically just a cleanup.  Large positive numbers get counted as
negative but then get implicitly cast to positive again for the checks
that matter.

This does make a small difference in ipw_handle_promiscuous_rx() when we
test "if (unlikely((len + IPW_RX_FRAME_SIZE) > skb_tailroom(rxb->skb)))"
It should return there, but we don't return until a couple lines later
when we test "if (len > IPW_RX_BUF_SIZE - sizeof(struct ipw_rt_hdr)) {".
The difference is that in the second test the sizeof() means that there
is an implied cast to unsigned.

 - radix-tree optimisations

 - new selftests code

   A note on this: often people will develop a new userspace-visible
   feature and will develop userspace code to exercise/test that
   feature.  Then they merge the patch and the selftest code dies.
   Sometimes we paste it into the changelog.  Sometimes the code gets
   thrown into Documentation/(!).

   This saddens me.  So this patch creates a bare-bones framework which
   will henceforth allow me to ask people to include their test apps in
   the kernel tree so we can keep them alive.  Then when people enhance
   or fix the feature, I can ask them to update the test app too.

   The infrastruture is terribly trivial at present - let's see how it
   evolves.

 - checkpoint/restart feature work.

   A note on this: this is a project by various mad Russians to perform
   c/r mainly from userspace, with various oddball helper code added
   into the kernel where the need is demonstrated.

   So rather than some large central lump of code, what we have is
   little bits and pieces popping up in various places which either
   expose something new or which permit something which is normally
   kernel-private to be modified.

   The overall project is an ongoing thing.  I've judged that the size
   and scope of the thing means that we're more likely to be successful
   with it if we integrate the support into mainline piecemeal rather
   than allowing it all to develop out-of-tree.

   However I'm less confident than the developers that it will all
   eventually work! So what I'm asking them to do is to wrap each piece
   of new code inside CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.  So if it all
   eventually comes to tears and the project as a whole fails, it should
   be a simple matter to go through and delete all trace of it.

This lot pretty much wraps up the -rc1 merge for me.

Sascha Hauer 35f1526845 unlzo: fix input buffer free
unlzo modifies the pointer to in_buf, so we have to free the original
buffer, not the modified pointer.

Kees Cook c755201eb5 ramoops: update parameters only after successful init
If a platform device exists on the system, but ramoops fails to attach to
it, the module parameters are overridden before ramoops can fall back and
try to use passed module parameters.  Move update to end of init routine.

Marco Stornelli fdb5950754 ramoops: fix use of rounddown_pow_of_two()
The return value of rounddown_pow_of_two wasn't evaluated, so the
operation was a no-op.
