Use helper functions to hide all direct accesses, especially writes,
to dst_entry metrics values.

This will allow us to:

1) More easily change how the metrics are stored.

2) Implement COW for metrics.

In particular this will help us put metrics into the inetpeer
cache if that is what we end up doing.  We can make the _metrics
member a pointer instead of an array, initially have it point
at the read-only metrics in the FIB, and then on the first set
grab an inetpeer entry and point the _metrics member there.

This patch adds VLAN hardware support for Rhine chips.

The driver uses up to 3 additional bytes of buffer space when extracting
802.1Q headers; PKT_BUF_SZ should still be sufficient.

While doing this analysis, I found a refcount bug in llc, I'll send a

Meanwhile, here is the patch for net-next-2.6

Your patch then can be applied after mine.

[PATCH] net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl()

dev_getbyhwaddr() was called under RTNL.

Rename it to dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu() and change all its caller to now use
RCU locking instead of RTNL.

Change arp_ioctl() to use RCU instead of RTNL locking.

Note: this fix a dev refcount bug in llc

Oh well, of course I must first fix the bug in net-2.6, and wait David
pull the fix in net-next-2.6 before sending this rcu conversion.

Note: this patch should be sent to stable teams (2.6.34 and up)

[PATCH net-2.6] llc: fix a device refcount imbalance

commit abf9d537 (llc: add support for SO_BINDTODEVICE) added one
refcount imbalance in llc_ui_bind(), because dev_getbyhwaddr() doesnt
take a reference on device, while dev_get_by_index() does.

Fix this using RCU locking. And since an RCU conversion will be done for
2.6.38 for dev_getbyhwaddr(), put the rcu_read_lock/unlock exactly at
their final place.

to apply changes of the SLIP driver to the SLCAN driver easily.

If we are using a legacy interrupt, our IRQ may be shared and our
interrupt handler may be called even though interrupts are disabled on
the NIC. When we change ring sizes, we reallocate the event queue and
the interrupt handler may use an invalid pointer when called for
another device's interrupt.

Maintain a legacy_irq_enabled flag and test that at the top of the
interrupt handler.  Note that this problem results from the need to
work around broken INT_ISR0 reads, and does not affect the legacy
interrupt handler for Falcon A1.

This patch adds a generic infrastructure for policy-based dequeueing of
TX packets and provides two policies:
 * a simple FIFO policy (which is the default) and
 * a priority based policy (set via socket options).
Both policies honour the tx_qlen sysctl for the maximum size of the write
queue (can be overridden via socket options).

The priority policy uses skb->priority internally to assign an u32 priority
identifier, using the same ranking as SO_PRIORITY. The skb->priority field
is set to 0 when the packet leaves DCCP. The priority is supplied as ancillary
data using cmsg(3), the patch also provides the requisite parsing routines.
