In a highly noisy environment, the tx rate of the driver drops and
the application slows down since it has not yet received ACKs for
the frames already queued in the hardware. Since this ACK may take
more than 100ms, stopping the dev queues for entering PS at this
stage breaks applications, WMM test cases in my testing.
If there are frames already pending in the tx queue, postponing the
PS logic helps to avoid redundant queue stops. When power save is
enabled by default and in a noisy environment, this API certainly
helps in improving the average throughput.

Fixes bugzilla #32872
The LLC stack pretends to support non-linear skbs but there is a
direct use of skb_tail_pointer() in llc_fixup_skb().
Use pskb_may_pull() to see if data_size bytes remain and can be
accessed linearly in the packet, instead of direct pointer checks.

This change is meant to add an ntuple data extensions to the rx network flow
classification specifiers. The idea is to allow ntuple to be displayed via
the network flow classification interface.
The first patch had some left over stuff from the original flow extension
flags I had added. That bit is removed in this patch.
The second had some left over comments that stated we ignored bits in the
masks when we actually match them.
This work is based on input from Ben Hutchings.

This change is meant to prevent a possible null pointer dereference if
NETIF_F_NTUPLE is defined but the set_rx_ntuple function pointer is not.
The main motivation behind this patch is to eventually replace the ntuple
interfaces entirely with the network flow classifier interfaces. This
allows the device drivers to maintain the ntuple check internally while
using the network flow classifier interface for setting up and displaying
rules.

The reverse path filter interferes with IPsec subnet-to-subnet tunnels,
especially when the link to the IPsec peer is on an interface other than
the one hosting the default route.
With dynamic routing, where the peer might be reachable through eth0
today and eth1 tomorrow, it's difficult to keep rp_filter enabled unless
fake routes to the remote subnets are configured on the interface
currently used to reach the peer.
IPsec provides a much stronger anti-spoofing policy than rp_filter, so
this patch disables the rp_filter for packets with a security path.

Currently when there's some failure to receive a callback (because we
couldn't find a matching xid, for example), we exit svc_recv with
sk_tcplen still set but without any pages saved with the socket. This
will cause a crash later in svc_tcp_restore_pages.
Instead, make sure we reset that tcp information whether the callback
received failed or succeeded.

Commit 1018b5c016 ("Set rt->rt_iif more
sanely on output routes.") breaks rt_is_{output,input}_route.
This became the cause to return "IP_PKTINFO's ->ipi_ifindex == 0".
To fix it, this does:
1) Add "int rt_route_iif;" to struct rtable
2) For input routes, always set rt_route_iif to same value as rt_iif
3) For output routes, always set rt_route_iif to zero. Set rt_iif
as it is done currently.
4) Change rt_is_{output,input}_route() to test rt_route_iif

We have no other option but to inform userspace that we
have queued up their regulatory hint request when we are
given one given that nl80211 operates atomically on user
requests. The best we can do is accept the request, and
add a delayed work item for processing failure and cancel it
if we succeeed. Upon failure we restore the regulatory
settings and ignore the user input.
This fixes this reported bug:

When we restore regulatory settings its possible CRDA
will not reply because of a bogus user entry. In this
case the bogus entry will prevent any further processing
on cfg80211 for regulatory domains even if we restore
regulatory settings.
To prevent this we suck out all pending requests when
restoring regulatory settings and add them back into the
queue after we have queued up the reset work.
The impact of not having this applied is that a user
with privileges can issue a userspace regulatory hint
while we are disasocciating and this would prevent any
further processing of regulatory domains.

Allow the NFSv4 server to make use of TCP autotuning behaviour, which
was previously disabled by setting the sk_userlocks variable.
Set the receive buffers to be big enough to receive the whole RPC
request, and set this for the listening socket, not the accept socket.
Remove the code that readjusts the receive/send buffer sizes for the
accepted socket. Previously this code was used to influence the TCP
window management behaviour, which is no longer needed when autotuning
is enabled.
This can improve IO bandwidth on networks with high bandwidth-delay
products, where a large tcp window is required. It also simplifies
performance tuning, since getting adequate tcp buffers previously
required increasing the number of nfsd threads.

It's much simpler just to copy the cb reply data than to play tricks

until we implement cb_getattr, in which case files with very long ACLs

If the client sents a record too short to contain even the beginning of
