Antonio Quartulli 068ee6e204 batman-adv: roaming handling mechanism redesign
This patch allows clients to roam multiple times within the same
originator-interval.

To enable this new feature two key aspects that have been introduced:
1) packets are always directed to the node that was originally
serving the roamed client which will then re-route the data
to the correct destination at any point in time;
2) the client flags handling mechanism has been properly modified
in order to allow multiple roamings withinin the same orig-int.
Therefore flags are now set properly even in this scenario.

Antonio Quartulli be73b488d1 batman-adv: refactor tt_global_del_struct()
batadv_tt_global_del_struct() function is not properly named.
Having a more meaningful name which reflects the current behavior helps other
developers to easily understand what it does.

A parameter has also been renamed in order to let the function header better fit
the 80-chars line-width

Antonio Quartulli 7c1fd91da5 batman-adv: substitute tt_poss_change with a per-tt_entry flag
tt_poss_change is a node-wide flag which tells whether the node is in a roaming
state (a client recently moved to/away from it) in order to let it apply special
re-routing rules. However this flag does not give a clear idea of the current
state because it is not possible to understand *which client* is actually
involved in the roaming. For this reason a better approach has been chosen:
instead of using a node-wide variable, the roaming state is now given by a
per-tt_entry ROAM flag which, in case of packet coming through the node, tells
the node whether the real destination is in roaming state or not.

With this flag change, batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() has also been rearranged in
order to better fit the new re-routing logic and to be much more readable.

Simon Wunderlich 28709878b6 batman-adv: wait multiple periods before activating bla
For some reasons (bridge forward delay, network device setup order, etc)
the initial bridge loop avoidance announcement packets may be lost. This
may lead to problems in finding other backbone gws, and therfore create
loops in the startup time.

Fix this by extending the waiting periods to 3 (define can be changed)
before allowing broadcast traffic.

Simon Wunderlich d807f27287 batman-adv: allow bla traffic only after first worker period
When adding a backbone gateway for the first time, it might not yet
be known in the backbone, and therefore we should not forward
broadcasts yet. This behaviour is the same as when sending a request
to another backbone gw because of a CRC mismatch. The backbone gw
will operate normal after the next periodic bla work.

Simon Wunderlich 52aebd6a9f batman-adv: send announcement when backbone gw is registered
To avoid loops in the startup phase until the first announcement is
sent, send an announcement immediately as soon as a backbone gw is
added.

This may happen due to various reasons, e.g. a packet passes the rx

Alexander Duyck 80d0759e5e igb: Improve performance and reduce size of igb_tx_map
This change is meant to both improve the performance and reduce the size of
igb_tx_map.  To do this I have expanded the work done in the main loop by
pushing first into tx_buffer.  This allows us to pull in the dma_mapping_error
check, the tx_buffer value assignment, and the initial DMA value assignment to
the Tx descriptor.  The net result is that the function reduces in size by a
little over a 100 bytes and is about 1% or 2% faster.

This change is meant to improve the efficiency of the Tx flags in igb by
aligning them with the values that will later be written into either the
cmd_type or olinfo.  By doing this we are able to reduce most of these
functions to either just a simple shift followed by an or in the case of
cmd_type, or an and followed by an or in the case of olinfo.

In order to avoid type conversion errors I also adjusted the locations
where we were switching between CPU and little endian.

Alexander Duyck f7c405618c ixgbe: Do not use DCA to prefetch the entire packet into the cache
The way the code was previously written it was causing DCA to prefetch the
entire packet into the cache when it was enabled.  That is excessive as we
only really need the headers.

We are now prefetching the headers via software so doing this from DCA would
be redundant anyway.  So clear the bit that was causing us to prefetch the
packet data and instead only use DCA for the descriptor rings.

Wang Dongsheng 103cdd1d59 gianfar: ethernet vanishes after restoring from hibernation
If a gianfar ethernet device is down prior to hibernating a
system, it will no longer be present upon system restore.

For example:

	~# ifconfig eth0 down
	~# echo disk > /sys/power/state

	  <trigger a restore from hibernation>

	~# ifconfig eth0 up
	SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

This happens because the restore function bails out early upon
finding devices that were not up at hibernation.  In doing so,
it never gets to the netif_device_attach call at the end of
the restore function.  Adding the netif_device_attach as done
here also makes the gfar_restore code consistent with what is
done in the gfar_resume code.

Amerigo Wang c1a6085195 netconsole: add oops_only module option
Some people wants to log only oops messages via netconsole,
(this is also why netoops was invented)
so add a module option for netconsole. This can be tuned
via /sys/module/netconsole/parameters/oops_only at run time
as well.

Sets the sysfs device_type to 'vlan' for udev. This makes it easier for
applications that query network information via udev to identify vlans
instead of using strrchr().
