Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.
One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

The support for CONFIG_MCA is being removed, since the 20
year old hardware simply isn't capable of meeting today's
software demands on CPU and memory resources.
This commit removes the MCA specific SCSI drivers, and the
MCA specific portions of code in dual role ISA/MCA drivers.
Also, the MCA specific SCSI documentation is removed.

Change the TX ring scheme such that the number of rings for untagged packets
and for tagged packets (per each of the vlan priorities) is the same, unlike
the current situation where for tagged traffic there's one ring per priority
and for untagged rings as the number of core.
Queue selection is done as follows:
If the mqprio qdisc is operates on the interface, such that the core networking
code invoked the device setup_tc ndo callback, a mapping of skb->priority =>
queue set is forced - for both, tagged and untagged traffic.
Else, the egress map skb->priority => User priority is used for tagged traffic, and
all untagged traffic is sent through tx rings of UP 0.
The patch follows the convergence of discussing that issue with John Fastabend
over this thread http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/229877

Under certain scenarios, it's possible that bursty manageability traffic
over the BMC-to-OS path may overrun the internal manageability receive
buffer causing dropped manageability packets. Clearing this bit prevents
this situation by interrupting coalescing to allow manageability traffic

The code seems to want to look at the last byte where the HW puts some
information. Since the skb->data area is never seen by the HW I guess it
does not work as expected. We pass the page address to the HW so I
*think* in order to get to the last byte where the information might be
one should use the page buffer and take a look.
This is of course not more than just compile tested.

According to the comment, errata 23 says that the memory we allocate
can't cross a 64KiB boundary. In case of jumbo frames we allocate
complete pages which can never cross the 64KiB boundary because
PAGE_SIZE should be a multiple of 64KiB so we stop either before the
boundary or start after it but never cross it. Furthermore the check
seems bogus because it looks at skb->data which is not seen by the HW
at all because we only pass the DMA address of the page we allocated. So
I *think* the workaround is not required here.

Pull networking tree from David Miller:
1) ptp_pch driver build broke during this merge window due to missing
slab.h header, fix from Geery Uytterhoeven.
2) If ipset passes in a bogus hash table size we crash because the size
is not validated properly. Compounding this, gcc-4.7 can miscompile
ipset such that even when the user specifies legitimate parameters
the tool passes in an out-of-range size to the kernel.
Fix from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
3) Users have reported that the netdev watchdog can trigger with pch_gbe
devices, and it turns out this is happening because of races in the
TX path of the driver leading to the transmitter hanging. Fix from
Eric Dumazet, reported and tested by Andy Cress.
4) Novatel USB551L devices match the generic class entries for the cdc
ethernet USB driver, but they don't work because they have generic
descriptors and thus need FLAG_WWAN to function properly.
Add the necessary ID table entry to fix this, from Dan Williams.
5) A recursive locking fix in the USBNET driver added a new problem, in
that packet list traversal is now racy and we can thus access
unlinked SKBs and crash.
Avoid this situation by adding some extra state tracking, from Ming
Lei.
6) The rtlwifi conversion to asynchronous firmware loading is racy, fix
by reordering the probe procedure. From Larry Finger.
Fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43187
7) Fix regressions with bluetooth keyboards by notifying userland
properly when the security level changes, from Gustavo Padovan.
8) Bluetooth needs to make sure device connected events are emitted
before other kinds of events, otherwise userspace will think there is
no baseband link yet and therefore abort the sockets associated with
that connection.

The qeth layer3 driver is notified about IP address changes.
Changes concerning qeth driven network interfaces have to be
forwarded to the OSA-card. This includes IP addresses of VLAN
interfaces with a qeth device as base device. Function
qeth_l3_verify_vlan_dev() determines if the net_device of the
IP event belongs to a vlan device belonging to a qeth device
as real device. This function is broken starting with commit
7ff0bcf676f7ed224ce21b58c7858c8e527068b2 , which means IP
addresses of VLAN devices are no longer set at the base qeth
device. The patch repairs function qeth_l3_verify_vlan_dev().

John Linville says:
Here are three more fixes that some of my developers are desperate to
see included in 3.4...
Johan Hedberg went to some length justifyng the inclusion of these two
Bluetooth fixes:
"The device_connected fix should be quite self-explanatory, but it's
actually a wider issue than just for keyboards. All profiles that do
incoming connection authorization (e.g. headsets) will break without it
with specific hardware. The reason it wasn't caught earlier is that it
only occurs with specific Bluetooth adapters.
As for the security level patch, this fixes L2CAP socket based security
level elevation during a connection. The HID profile needs this (for
keyboards) and it is the only way to achieve the security level
elevation when using the management interface to talk to the kernel
(hence the management enabling patch being the one that exposes this"
The rtlwifi fix addresses a regression related to firmware loading,
as described in kernel.org bug 43187. It basically just moves a hunk
of code to a more appropriate place.

unload
Currently the slave and master resources are deleted after master freed
all bitmaps. If any resources were not properly cleaned up during the
shutdown process, an Oops would result.
Fix so that delete slave (only) resources during cleanup. Master resources
are cleaned up during unload process, and need not separately be cleaned.
Note that during cleanup, we need to split the resource-tracker freeing
functionality.
Before removing all the bitmaps, we free any leftover slave resources.
However, we can only remove the resource tracker linked list after
all bitmap frees, since some of the freeing functions (e.g.,
mlx4_cleanup_eq_table) use paravirtualized FW commands which expect
the resource tracker linked list to be present.

Consider the following scenario: 2 HCAs, where only one of which can run SRIOV.
If we reset the module parameter, all the VFs of the SRIOV HCA will be
claimed by the PPF host (-- the code relies on num_vfs being non-zero
to avoid this claiming, and num_vfs was reset when pci_enable_sriov failed
for the non-SRIOV HCA).
The solution is not to touch the num_vfs parameter.
Also, eliminate the unneeded check of num_vfs when disabling sriov
(the dev flag bit is sufficient).

In function mlx4_INIT_PORT_wrapper, the port state mask for the
slave is only set if we are invoking the INIT_PORT fw command.
However, the reference count for the (initialized) port is
incremented anyway.
This creates a problem in that when we have multiple slaves,
then the CLOSE_PORT command will never be invoked. The
reason is that in the CLOSE_PORT wrapper, if the port-state
mask is zero for the slave (which it is), the wrapper returns
without doing anything. The only slave which will not return
immediately in the CLOSE_PORT wrapper is that slave for which
INIT_PORT was invoked.
The fix is to not have the port-state mask setting depend
on the logic for calling the INIT_PORT fw command.

Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid
recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking
problem by releasing the skb queue lock before unlink, but may
cause skb traversing races:
- after URB is unlinked and the queue lock is released,
the refered skb and skb->next may be moved to done queue,
even be released
- in skb_queue_walk_safe, the next skb is still obtained
by next pointer of the last skb
- so maybe trigger oops or other problems
This patch extends the usage of entry->state to describe 'start_unlink'
state, so always holding the queue(rx/tx) lock to change the state if
the referd skb is in rx or tx queue because we need to know if the
refered urb has been started unlinking in unlink_urbs.
The other part of this patch is based on Huajun's patch:
always traverse from head of the tx/rx queue to get skb which is
to be unlinked but not been started unlinking.
