Pull media fixes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"Two driver fixes.
One avoids reading any file at a system with a cx25821 board

reading after a buffer with ISDB-T devices based on mb86a20s."

variable_is_present() accesses '__efivars' directly, but when called via
gsmi_init() Michel reports observing the following crash,
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
IP: variable_is_present+0x55/0x170
Call Trace:
register_efivars+0x106/0x370
gsmi_init+0x2ad/0x3da
do_one_initcall+0x3f/0x170
The reason for the crash is that '__efivars' hasn't been initialised nor
has it been registered with register_efivars() by the time the google
EFI SMI driver runs. The gsmi code uses its own struct efivars, and
therefore, a different variable list. Fix the above crash by passing
the registered struct efivars to variable_is_present(), so that we
traverse the correct list.

In commit b0de59b5733d ("TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write")
we removed timestamps from tty inodes to fix a security issue and waited
if something breaks. Well, 'w', the utility to find out logged users
and their inactivity time broke. It shows that users are inactive since
the time they logged in.
To revert to the old behaviour while still preventing attackers to
guess the password length, we update the timestamps in one-minute
intervals by this patch.

When building ax88796 on an ARM platform with 64-bit resource_size_t,
we currently get
drivers/net/ethernet/8390/ax88796.c:875: undefined reference to `__aeabi_uldivmod'
because we do a division on the length of the MMIO resource.
Since we know that this resource is very short, using an
"unsigned long" instead of "resource_size_t" is entirely
sufficient, and avoids this link-time error.

We normally trust and use the CDC functional descriptors provided by a
number of devices. But some of these will erroneously list the address
reserved for the device end of the link. Attempting to use this on
both the device and host side will naturally not work.
Work around this bug by ignoring the functional descriptor and assign a
random address instead in this case.

The bogus address is always the same, and matches the address
suggested by many devices as a default address. It is likely a
hardcoded firmware default.
The circumstances where this bug has been observed indicates that
the trigger is related to timing or some other factor the host
cannot control. Repeating the exact same configuration sequence
that caused it to trigger once, will not necessarily cause it to
trigger the next time. Reproducing the bug is therefore difficult.
This opens up a possibility that the bug is more common than we can
confirm, because affected devices often will work properly again
after a reset. A procedure most users are likely to try out before
reporting a bug.
Unconditionally rewriting the destination address if the first digit
of the received packet is 0, is considered an acceptable compromise
since we already have to inspect this digit. The simplification will
cause unnecessary rewrites if the real address starts with 0, but this
is still better than adding additional tests for this particular case.

A number of LTE devices from different vendors all suffer from the
same firmware bug: Most of the packets received from the device while
it is attached to a LTE network will not have an ethernet header. The
devices work as expected when attached to 2G or 3G networks, sending
an ethernet header with all packets.
This driver is not aware of which network the modem attached to, and
even if it were there are still some packet types which are always
received with the header intact.
All devices supported by this driver have severely limited
networking capabilities:
- can only transmit IPv4, IPv6 and possibly ARP
- can only support a single host hardware address at any time
- will only do point-to-point communcation with the host
Because of this, we are able to reliably identify any bogus raw IP
packets by simply looking at the 4 IP version bits. All we need to
do is to avoid 4 or 6 in the first digit of the mac address. This
workaround ensures this, and fix up the received packets as necessary.
Given the distribution of the bug, it is believed that the source is
the chipset vendor. The devices which are verified to be affected are:
Huawei E392u-12 (Qualcomm MDM9200)
Pantech UML290 (Qualcomm MDM9600)
Novatel USB551L (Qualcomm MDM9600)
Novatel E362 (Qualcomm MDM9600)
It is believed that the bug depend on firmware revision, which means
that possibly all devices based on the above mentioned chipset may be
affected if we consider all available firmware revisions.
The information about affected devices and versions is likely
incomplete. As the additional overhead for packets not needing this
fixup is very small, it is considered acceptable to apply the
workaround to all devices handled by this driver.

John W. Linville says:
====================
A few stragglers hoping for 3.9, somewhat delayed due to my travels...
On the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"Sadly, I have another pull request -- the idle handling fix broke LED
handling in some cases."
and:
"Yet one more!
This fixes a fairly important/annoying bug -- when roaming between
multiple APs of the same network, the system could get stuck thinking it
was connected to the old one while it really wasn't."
On top of that...
Arend sends a brcmfmac patch that removes advertising a feature that
isn't actually fully supported, and a brcmsmac patch that rearranges
code to request firmware at IFF_UP to play more nicely with being
built into the kernel.
Felix gives us a minor ath9k_htc fix to support the newly released
open source firmware, and an ath9k_hw initvals fix to improve device
stability.
Rafał Miłecki provides a fix for an ssb regression that caused a
serious performance problem with b43.
Zefir Kurtisi offers an ath9k fix to change some kmalloc flags to
allow the DFS detector to be called in softirq context.
Please let me know if there are problems. If these don't make 3.9,
I'll just pull them into wireless-next -- just let me know if you
want to do it that way!

bonding doesn't properly hash traffic in forwarding setups.
Vitaly V. Bursov diagnosed that skb_network_header_len() returned 0 in

More generally, the transport header might not be in the skb head.
Use pskb_may_pull() & skb_header_pointer() to get it right, and use

When loading after UNDI (e.g., Boot from SAN) the UNDI does not
gracefully yield its resources; The bnx2x driver handles that release
itself.
During the manipulation required to release those resources, it's possible
for the UNDI to try and write to memory regions which are no longer accessible,
causing the PCI bus to prevent further writes from the chip.
This would in turn cause DMAE timeouts later on in the driver, as the driver
will be unable to use the chip's DMA engines.
This patch prevents the chip from actually writing through the PCI bus
in said scenario, thus allowing the release without the unfortunate by-product.

The PF driver does not check if the administrator has already set a VF
VLAN via the PF driver before setting the new VLAN. This results in
the following scenario:
A) Administrator sets VF <n> to VLAN 100
B) Administrator sets VF <x> to VLAN 100
C) Administrator sets VF <n> to VLAN 200
D) The VF <n> driver continues to be able to receive traffic on VLAN
100 because the VLVFB pool enable bit for that VF was left set
instead of being cleared as it should be.
This fix ensures that the old VLAN filter for VF <n> is first removed
and the pool bit enable for VF <n> is cleared so that it no longer
receives traffic on VLAN 100.

This patch actually reverts:
igb: Support using build_skb in the case that jumbo frames are disabled
The reason for reverting this patch is that it can lead to data corruption.
The following flow was pointed out by Ben Hutchings:
1. skb is forwarded to another device
2. Packet headers are modified and it's put into a queue
3. Second packet is received into the other half of this page
4. Page cannot be reused, so is DMA-unmapped
5. The DMA mapping was non-coherent, so unmap copies or invalidates
cache
The headers added in step 2 get trashed in step 5.

This reverts commit 3a366e614d0837d9fc23f78cdb1a1186ebc3387f.
Wanlong Gao reports that it causes a kernel panic on his machine several
minutes after boot. Reverting it removes the panic.
Jens says:
"It's not quite clear why that is yet, so I think we should just revert
the commit for 3.9 final (which I'm assuming is pretty close).
The wifi is crap at the LSF hotel, so sending this email instead of
queueing up a revert and pull request."

The BUG_ON() directive is triggered probably due to a latency
modification following inclusion of commit c10d73671ad3 ("softirq:
reduce latencies"). This condition has not been met before 3.9-rc1 and
doesn't trigger without this patch.
We now make sure that DMA channel is idle before calling
atc_complete_all() which makes the BUG_ON() "protection" useless.

hotkey_kthread() does try_to_freeze() under hotkey_thread_mutex.
We can simply kill this mutex, hotkey_poll_stop_sync() does not need to
serialize with hotkey_kthread(). When kthread_stop() returns the thread
is already dead, it called do_exit()->complete_vfork_done().

rbd: do a safe list traversal in rbd_img_request_submit()
|
|
It's possible that the reference to the object request dropped
inside the loop in rbd_img_request_submit() will be the last
one, in which case the content of the object pointer can't be
trusted.
Use a safe form of the object request list traversal to avoid
problems.
This resolves:

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Fix erroneous netfilter drop of SIP packets generated by some Cisco
phones, from Patrick McHardy.
2) Fix netfilter IPSET refcounting in list_set_add(), from Jozsef
Kadlecsik.
3) Fix TCP syncookies route lookup key, we don't use the same values we
would use for the usual SYN receive processing, from Dmitry Popov.
4) Fix NULL deref in bond_slave_netdev_event(), from Nikolay
Aleksandrov.
5) When bonding enslave fails, we can forget to clear the IFF_BONDING
bit, fix also from Nikolay Aleksandrov.
6) skb->csum_start is 16-bits, which is almost always just fine. But
if we reallocate the headroom of an SKB this can push the
skb->csum_start value outside of it's valid range. This can easily
happen when collapsing multiple SKBs from the retransmit queue
together.
Fix from Thomas Graf.
7) Fix NULL deref in be2net driver due to missing check of
__vlan_put_tag() return value, from Ivan Vecera.
8) tun_set_iff() returns zero instead of error code on failure, fix
from Wei Yongjun.
9) Like GARP, 802 MRP needs to hold the app->lock when adding MAD
events and queueing PDUs. Fix from David Ward.
10) Build fix, MVMDIO needs PHYLIB, from Thomas Petazzoni..
11) Fix mac80211 static with ipv6 modular build, from Cong Wang.
12) If userland specifies a path cost explicitly, do not override it
when the carrier state changes. From Stephen Hemminger.
13) mvnets calculates the TX queue to use incorrectly resulting in
garbage pointer derefs and crashes, fix from Willy Tarreau.
14) cdc_mbim does erroneous sizeof(ETH_HLEN). Fix from Bjorn Mork.
15) IP fragmentation can leak a refcount-less route out from an RCU
protected section. This results in crashes and all sorts of hard to
diagnose behavior. Fix from Eric Dumazet.
