NCM buffer sizes are negotiated with the device independently of
the network device MTU.  The RX buffers are allocated by the
usbnet framework based on the rx_urb_size value set by cdc_ncm. A
single RX buffer can hold a number of MTU sized packets.

The default usbnet change_mtu ndo only modifies rx_urb_size if it
is equal to hard_mtu.  And the cdc_ncm driver will set rx_urb_size
and hard_mtu independently of each other, based on dwNtbInMaxSize
and dwNtbOutMaxSize respectively. It was therefore assumed that
usbnet_change_mtu() would never touch rx_urb_size.  This failed to
consider the case where dwNtbInMaxSize and dwNtbOutMaxSize happens
to be equal.

Fix by implementing an NCM specific change_mtu ndo, modifying the
netdev MTU without touching the buffer size settings.

Packets that arrive from real hardware devices have ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY if the hardware verified the checksums, or
CHECKSUM_NONE if the packet is bad or it was unable to verify it. The
current version of veth will replace CHECKSUM_NONE with
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, which causes corrupt packets routed from hardware to
a veth device to be delivered to the application. This caused applications
at Twitter to receive corrupt data when network hardware was corrupting
packets.

We believe this was added as an optimization to skip computing and
verifying checksums for communication between containers. However, locally
generated packets have ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, so the code as
written does nothing for them. As far as we can tell, after removing this
code, these packets are transmitted from one stack to another unmodified
(tcpdump shows invalid checksums on both sides, as expected), and they are
delivered correctly to applications. We didn’t test every possible network
configuration, but we tried a few common ones such as bridging containers,
using NAT between the host and a container, and routing from hardware
devices to containers. We have effectively deployed this in production at
Twitter (by disabling RX checksum offloading on veth devices).

This code dates back to the first version of the driver, commit
<e314dbdc> ("[NET]: Virtual ethernet device driver"), so I
suspect this bug occurred mostly because the driver API has evolved
significantly since then. Commit <0b796750> ("net/veth: Fix
packet checksumming") (in December 2010) fixed this for packets that get
created locally and sent to hardware devices, by not changing
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. However, the same issue still occurs for packets coming
in from hardware devices.

drivers: net: cpsw: Fix bugs in fixed-link PHY DT parsing

Commit 1f71e8c9 ("drivers: net: cpsw:
Add support for fixed-link PHY") added initial fixed-link PHY support
for CPSW, but missed a few considerations.

This series is based on the tip of the net tree. The first two patches
fix user-visible errors in different hardware configurations. The third
patch is for an internal reference counting issue. They are logically
independent changes, but in the same function, so must be applied in
order to apply cleanly.

The first patch was originally submitted by Pascal Speck on December 4,
but was not picked up by patchwork. I suspect that is because the patch
was mangled by the mailer. I fixed the mangling and am including it in
this series, as I believe it is the correct change.

I have tested on the following hardware configurations:
 - (EVMSK) dual emac with two real MDIO-connected phys using RGMII-TXID
 - single emac with fixed-link using RGMII
Testing of other CPSW emac configurations that folks may have would
be appreciated.

Changes from v1 [1]:
 - Split into 3 smaller patches.
 - Maintain 1f71e8c9's preference for fixed-link over phy_id if
   they are both (incorrectly) specified in the slave node.
 - Update binding documentation to no longer say that phy_mode is also
   mutually exclusive with fixed-link.
 - Dropped unnecessary include of phy_fixed.h.

Commit 1f71e8c9 ("drivers: net: cpsw: Add

the case of a fixed-link PHY, leaving slave_data->phy_if with its default
of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA(0). This later gets passed to phy_connect() in
cpsw_slave_open(), and eventually to cpsw_phy_sel() where it hits a default
case that configures the MAC for MII mode.

The user visible symptom is that while kernel log messages seem to indicate
that the interface is set up, there is no network communication. Eventually
a watchdog error occurs:

When using more than one slave with ti cpsw and fixed phy the pd->phy_id
will be always zero, but slave_data->phy_id must be unique. pd->phy_id
means a "phy hardware id" whereas slave_data->phy_id means an "unique id",
so we should use pd->addr which has the same unique meaning.

With b3ca9b02, the AF_UNIX SOCK_STREAM
receive code was changed from using mutex_lock(&u->readlock) to
mutex_lock_interruptible(&u->readlock) to prevent signals from being
delayed for an indefinite time if a thread sleeping on the mutex
happened to be selected for handling the signal. But this was never a
problem with the stream receive code (as opposed to its datagram
counterpart) as that never went to sleep waiting for new messages with the
mutex held and thus, wouldn't cause secondary readers to block on the
mutex waiting for the sleeping primary reader. As the interruptible
locking makes the code more complicated in exchange for no benefit,
change it back to using mutex_lock.

This is because in osq_lock we initialise the node for the current CPU:

    node->locked = 0;
    node->next = NULL;
    node->cpu = curr;

and then publish the current CPU in the lock tail:

    old = atomic_xchg_acquire(&lock->tail, curr);

Once the update to lock->tail is visible to another CPU, the node is
then live and can be both read and updated by concurrent lockers.

Unfortunately, the ACQUIRE semantics of the xchg operation mean that
there is no guarantee the contents of the node will be visible before
lock tail is updated.  This can lead to lock corruption when, for
example, a concurrent locker races to set the next field.

  dma-debug: Fix dma_debug_entry offset calculation
  Revert "scatterlist: use sg_phys()"
  nfit: acpi_nfit_notify(): Do not leave device locked

fou->udp_offloads is managed by RCU. As it is actually included inside
the fou sockets, we cannot let the memory go out of scope before a grace
period. We either can synchronize_rcu or switch over to kfree_rcu to
manage the sockets. kfree_rcu seems appropriate as it is used by vxlan
and geneve.
