The arcnet device has no interrupt to detect if the link has changed
from disconnected to connected. This patch adds an timer to toggle the
link detection. The timer will get retriggered as long as the
reconnection interrupts accure. If the recon interrupts hold off
for >1s we define the connection stable again.

tipc: improve broadcast implementation
The TIPC broadcast link implementation is currently complex and hard to
follow. It also incurs some amount of code and structure duplication,
something that can be reduced significantly with a little effort.
This commit series introduces a number of improvements which address
both the locking structure, the code/structure duplication issue, and
the overall readbility of the code.
The series consists of three main parts:
1-7: Adaptation to the new link structure, and preparation for the next
step. In particular, we want the broadcast transmission link to
have a life cycle that is longer than any of its potential (unicast
and broadcast receive links) users. This eliminates the need to
always test for the presence of this link before accessing it.
8-10: This is what is really new in this series. Commit #9 is by far
the largest and most important one, because it moves most of
the broadcast functionality into link.c, partially reusing the
fields and functionality of the unicast link. The removal of
the "node_map" infrastructure in commit #10 is also an important
achievement.
11-16: Some improvements leveraging the changes made in the previous
commits.
The series needs commit 53387c4e22 ("tipc: extend broadcast link window size")
and commit e53567948f ("tipc: conditionally expand buffer headroom over udp tunnel")
which are both present in 'net' but not yet in 'net-next', to apply cleanly.

Correct synchronization of the broadcast link at first contact between
two nodes is dependent on the assumption that the binding table "bulk"
update passes via the same link as the initial broadcast syncronization
message, i.e., via the first link that is established.
This is not guaranteed in the current implementation. If two link
come up very close to each other in time, the "bulk" may quite well
pass via the second link, and hence void the guarantee of a correct
initial synchronization before the broadcast link is opened.
This commit makes two small changes to strengthen this guarantee.
1) We let the second established link occupy slot 1 of the
"active_links" array, while the first link will retain slot 0.
(This is in reality a cosmetic change, we could just as well keep
the current, opposite order)
2) We let the name distributor always use link selector/slot 0 when
it sends it binding table updates.
The extra traffic bias on the first link caused by this change should
be negligible, since binding table updates constitutes a very small
fraction of the total traffic.

Until now, we have been keeping track of the exact set of broadcast
destinations though the help structure tipc_node_map. This leads us to
have to maintain a whole infrastructure for supporting this, including
a pseudo-bearer and a number of functions to manipulate both the bearers
and the node map correctly. Apart from the complexity, this approach is
also limiting, as struct tipc_node_map only can support cluster local
broadcast if we want to avoid it becoming excessively large. We want to
eliminate this limitation, in order to enable introduction of scoped
multicast in the future.
A closer analysis reveals that it is unnecessary maintaining this "full
set" overview; it is sufficient to keep a counter per bearer, indicating
how many nodes can be reached via this bearer at the moment. The protocol
is now robust enough to handle transitional discrepancies between the
nominal number of reachable destinations, as expected by the broadcast
protocol itself, and the number which is actually reachable at the
moment. The initial broadcast synchronization, in conjunction with the
retransmission mechanism, ensures that all packets will eventually be
acknowledged by the correct set of destinations.

The code path for receiving broadcast packets is currently distinct
from the unicast path. This leads to unnecessary code and data
duplication, something that can be avoided with some effort.
We now introduce separate per-peer tipc_link instances for handling
broadcast packet reception. Each receive link keeps a pointer to the
common, single, broadcast link instance, and can hence handle release
and retransmission of send buffers as if they belonged to the own
instance.
Furthermore, we let each unicast link instance keep a reference to both
the pertaining broadcast receive link, and to the common send link.
This makes it possible for the unicast links to easily access data for
broadcast link synchronization, as well as for carrying acknowledges for
received broadcast packets.

Realizing that unicast is just a special case of broadcast, we also see
that we can go in the other direction, i.e., that modest changes to the
current unicast link can make it generic enough to support broadcast.
The following changes are introduced here:
- A new counter ("ackers") in struct tipc_link, to indicate how many
peers need to ack a packet before it can be released.
- A corresponding counter in the skb user area, to keep track of how
many peers a are left to ack before a buffer can be released.
- A new counter ("acked"), to keep persistent track of how far a peer
has acked at the moment, i.e., where in the transmission queue to
start updating buffers when the next ack arrives. This is to avoid
double acknowledgements from a peer, with inadvertent relase of
packets as a result.
- A more generic tipc_link_retrans() function, where retransmit starts
from a given sequence number, instead of the first packet in the
transmision queue. This is to minimize the number of retransmitted
packets on the broadcast media.
When the new functionality is taken into use in the next commits,
we expect it to have minimal effect on unicast mode performance.

In this commit, we move as many of those definitions as is currently
possible to the file bcast.c.
We also rename the structure 'tipc_bclink' to 'tipc_bc_base', both
since the name does not correctly describe the contents of this
struct, and will do so even less in the future, and because we want
to use the term 'link' more appropriately in the functionality

Change the selection of a multipath route to use a flow-based
hash. This more suitable for traffic sensitive to reordering within a
flow (e.g. TCP, L2VPN) and whilst still allowing a good distribution
of traffic given enough flows.
Selection of the path for a multipath route is done using a hash of:
1. Label stack up to MAX_MP_SELECT_LABELS labels or up to and
including entropy label, whichever is first.
2. 3-tuple of (L3 src, L3 dst, proto) from IPv4/IPv6 header in MPLS
payload, if present.
Naturally, a 5-tuple hash using L4 information in addition would be
possible and be better in some scenarios, but there is a tradeoff
between looking deeper into the packet to achieve good distribution,
and packet forwarding performance, and I have erred on the side of the
latter as the default.

If a guest VF user wants over 30 MAC multicast addresses, set IFF_ALLMULTI

There is no reasons to probe cpsw from late_initcall level
and it's not recommended. Hence, use module_platform_driver()
to register and probe cpsw driver from module_init() level.

Add netlink directives and ndo entry to trust VF user.
This controls the special permission of VF user.
The administrator will dedicatedly trust VF user to use some features
which impacts security and/or performance.
The administrator never turn it on unless VF user is fully trusted.

Multiple cpus can process duplicates of incoming ACK messages
matching a SYN_RECV request socket. This is a rare event under
normal operations, but definitely can happen.
Only one must win the race, otherwise corruption would occur.
To fix this without adding new atomic ops, we use logic in
inet_ehash_nolisten() to detect the request was present in the same
ehash bucket where we try to insert the new child.
If request socket was not found, we have to undo the child creation.
This actually removes a spin_lock()/spin_unlock() pair in
reqsk_queue_unlink() for the fast path.
Fixes: e994b2f0fb ("tcp: do not lock listener to process SYN packets")
Fixes: 079096f103 ("tcp/dccp: install syn_recv requests into ehash table")

The commit 3092e5e4cc79 ("i40e: add little endian conversion for
checksum") fixed the checksum bug on big-endian architecture.
But we should not execute cpu_to_le16() unconditionally. Thus, put
cpu_to_le16() under certain condition.

In both i40e_calc_nvm_checksum() and i40e_update_nvm_checksum(), the
local variables designated by 'ret_code' are overwritten immediately. As
such, they should merely be declared.

In i40evf_msix_aq(), the first two lines of rd32() are mainly to clear
the registers. If we initialize 'val' at this point, it will be
overwritten immediately. We shall simply discard the return value here.
When we initialize 'val', we might as well include the mask in one step.
