Downgrade the log level to INFO for most checkentry messages as they
are, IMO, just an extra information to the -EINVAL code that is
returned as part of a parameter "constraint violation". Leave errors
to real errors, such as being unable to create a LED trigger.

This member is taking up a "long" per match, yet is only used by one
module out of the roughly 90 modules, ip6t_hbh. ip6t_hbh can be
restructured a little to accomodate for the lack of the .data member.
This variant uses checking the par->match address, which should avoid
having to add two extra functions, including calls, i.e.

(hbh_mt6: call hbhdst_mt6(skb, par, NEXTHDR_OPT),
dst_mt6: call hbhdst_mt6(skb, par, NEXTHDR_DEST))

One of the problems with the way xt_recent is implemented is that
there is no efficient way to remove expired entries. Of course,
one can write a rule '-m recent --remove', but you have to know
beforehand which entry to delete. This commit adds reaper
logic which checks the head of the LRU list when a rule
is invoked that has a '--seconds' value and XT_RECENT_REAP set. If an
entry ceases to accumulate time stamps, then it will eventually bubble
to the top of the LRU list where it is then reaped.

Origional commit message:

Allow retransmission of cloned buffers

This patch fixes an issue with TIPC's message retransmission logic
that prevented retransmission of clone sk_buffs.  Originally intended
as a means of avoiding wasted work in retransmitting messages that
were still on the driver's outbound queue, it also prevented TIPC
from retransmitting messages through other means -- such as the
secondary bearer of the broadcast link, or another interface in a
set of bonded interfaces.  This fix removes existing checks for
cloned sk_buffs that prevented such retransmission.

from git://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/pub/git/people/allan/tipc.git

Origional commit message:
Increase frequency of load distribution over broadcast link

This patch enhances the behavior of TIPC's broadcast link so that it
alternates between redundant bearers (if available) after every
message sent, rather than after every 10 messages.  This change helps
to speed up delivery of retransmitted messages by ensuring that
they are not sent repeatedly over a bearer that is no longer working,
but not yet recognized as failed.

Tested by myself in the latest net-2.6 tree using the tipc sanity test suite

`ip -s link` shows interface counters truncated to 32 bit. This is
because interface statistics are transported only in 32-bit quantity
to userspace. This commit adds a new IFLA_STATS64 attribute that
exports them in full 64 bit.

This patch implements software receive side packet steering (RPS).  RPS
distributes the load of received packet processing across multiple CPUs.

Problem statement: Protocol processing done in the NAPI context for received
packets is serialized per device queue and becomes a bottleneck under high
packet load.  This substantially limits pps that can be achieved on a single
queue NIC and provides no scaling with multiple cores.

This solution queues packets early on in the receive path on the backlog queues
of other CPUs.   This allows protocol processing (e.g. IP and TCP) to be
performed on packets in parallel.   For each device (or each receive queue in
a multi-queue device) a mask of CPUs is set to indicate the CPUs that can
process packets. A CPU is selected on a per packet basis by hashing contents
of the packet header (e.g. the TCP or UDP 4-tuple) and using the result to index
into the CPU mask.  The IPI mechanism is used to raise networking receive
softirqs between CPUs.  This effectively emulates in software what a multi-queue
NIC can provide, but is generic requiring no device support.

Many devices now provide a hash over the 4-tuple on a per packet basis
(e.g. the Toeplitz hash).  This patch allow drivers to set the HW reported hash
in an skb field, and that value in turn is used to index into the RPS maps.
Using the HW generated hash can avoid cache misses on the packet when
steering it to a remote CPU.

The CPU mask is set on a per device and per queue basis in the sysfs variable
/sys/class/net/<device>/queues/rx-<n>/rps_cpus.  This is a set of canonical
bit maps for receive queues in the device (numbered by <n>).  If a device
does not support multi-queue, a single variable is used for the device (rx-0).

Generally, we have found this technique increases pps capabilities of a single
queue device with good CPU utilization.  Optimal settings for the CPU mask
seem to depend on architectures and cache hierarcy.  Below are some results
running 500 instances of netperf TCP_RR test with 1 byte req. and resp.
Results show cumulative transaction rate and system CPU utilization.

e1000e on 8 core Intel
   Without RPS: 108K tps at 33% CPU
   With RPS:    311K tps at 64% CPU

forcedeth on 16 core AMD
   Without RPS: 156K tps at 15% CPU
   With RPS:    404K tps at 49% CPU

bnx2x on 16 core AMD
   Without RPS  567K tps at 61% CPU (4 HW RX queues)
   Without RPS  738K tps at 96% CPU (8 HW RX queues)
   With RPS:    854K tps at 76% CPU (4 HW RX queues)

Caveats:
- The benefits of this patch are dependent on architecture and cache hierarchy.
Tuning the masks to get best performance is probably necessary.
- This patch adds overhead in the path for processing a single packet.  In
a lightly loaded server this overhead may eliminate the advantages of
increased parallelism, and possibly cause some relative performance degradation.
We have found that masks that are cache aware (share same caches with
the interrupting CPU) mitigate much of this.
- The RPS masks can be changed dynamically, however whenever the mask is changed
this introduces the possibility of generating out of order packets.  It's
probably best not change the masks too frequently.

set_page_dirty() unconditionally re-enables interrupts, so
if we call it with irqs off, they will be on after the call,
and that's bad. This patch moves the call after we've re-enabled
interrupts in send_drop_to(), so it's safe.

Also, add BUG_ONs to let us know if we ever do call set_page_dirty
with interrupts off.
