Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:

1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.

Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.

skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.

There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.

Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.

Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net

Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.

2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.

3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.

4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.

5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.

6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.

7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.

8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.

9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.

10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.

11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.

12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.

13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

Backmerge Linux 3.10-rc2 since the various (rather trivial) conflicts
grew a bit out of hand. intel_dp.c has the only real functional
conflict since the logic changed while dev_priv->edp.bpp was moved

af_unix: fix a fatal race with bit fields

Using bit fields is dangerous on ppc64/sparc64, as the compiler [1]
uses 64bit instructions to manipulate them.
If the 64bit word includes any atomic_t or spinlock_t, we can lose
critical concurrent changes.

This is happening in af_unix, where unix_sk(sk)->gc_candidate/
gc_maybe_cycle/lock share the same 64bit word.

This leads to fatal deadlock, as one/several cpus spin forever
on a spinlock that will never be available again.

A safer way would be to use a long to store flags.
This way we are sure compiler/arch wont do bad things.

As we own unix_gc_lock spinlock when clearing or setting bits,
we can use the non atomic __set_bit()/__clear_bit().

recursion_level can share the same 64bit location with the spinlock,
as it is set only with this spinlock held.
