Trivial conflicts in net/can/isotp.c and
tools/testing/selftests/net/mptcp/mptcp_connect.sh

scaled_ppm_to_ppb() was moved from drivers/ptp/ptp_clock.c
to include/linux/ptp_clock_kernel.h in -next so re-apply
the fix there.

<title>net: cdc_ncm: switch to eth%d interface naming</title>

<content type='text'>
This is meant to make the host side cdc_ncm interface consistently
named just like the older CDC protocols: cdc_ether &amp; cdc_ecm
(and even rndis_host), which all use 'FLAG_ETHER | FLAG_POINTTOPOINT'.

include/linux/usb/usbnet.h:
  #define FLAG_ETHER	0x0020		/* maybe use "eth%d" names */
  #define FLAG_WLAN	0x0080		/* use "wlan%d" names */
  #define FLAG_WWAN	0x0400		/* use "wwan%d" names */
  #define FLAG_POINTTOPOINT 0x1000	/* possibly use "usb%d" names */

drivers/net/usb/usbnet.c @ line 1711:
  strcpy (net-&gt;name, "usb%d");
  ...
  // heuristic:  "usb%d" for links we know are two-host,
  // else "eth%d" when there's reasonable doubt.  userspace
  // can rename the link if it knows better.
  if ((dev-&gt;driver_info-&gt;flags &amp; FLAG_ETHER) != 0 &amp;&amp;
      ((dev-&gt;driver_info-&gt;flags &amp; FLAG_POINTTOPOINT) == 0 ||
       (net-&gt;dev_addr [0] &amp; 0x02) == 0))
          strcpy (net-&gt;name, "eth%d");
  /* WLAN devices should always be named "wlan%d" */
  if ((dev-&gt;driver_info-&gt;flags &amp; FLAG_WLAN) != 0)
          strcpy(net-&gt;name, "wlan%d");
  /* WWAN devices should always be named "wwan%d" */
  if ((dev-&gt;driver_info-&gt;flags &amp; FLAG_WWAN) != 0)
          strcpy(net-&gt;name, "wwan%d");

So by using ETHER | POINTTOPOINT the interface naming is
either usb%d or eth%d based on the global uniqueness of the
mac address of the device.

Without this 2.5gbps ethernet dongles which all seem to use the cdc_ncm
driver end up being called usb%d instead of eth%d even though they're
definitely not two-host.  (All 1gbps &amp; 5gbps ethernet usb dongles I've
tested don't hit this problem due to use of different drivers, primarily
r8152 and aqc111)

Fixes tag is based purely on git blame, and is really just here to make
sure this hits LTS branches newer than v4.5.

Use DEVICE_ATTR_RW helper instead of plain DEVICE_ATTR,
which makes the code a bit shorter and easier to read.

<id>urn:sha1:eb47c274d8c44e1a1d7e44f9e82776e5adb5649b</id>
<content type='text'>
Until very recently, the usbnet framework only had support functions
for devices which reported the link speed by explicitly querying the
PHY over a MDIO interface. However, the cdc_ncm devices send
notifications when the link state or link speeds change and do not
expose the PHY (or modem) directly.

Support funtions (e.g. usbnet_get_link_ksettings_internal()) to directly
query state recorded by the cdc_ncm driver were added in a previous patch.

So instead of cdc_ncm spewing the link speed into the dmesg buffer,
record the link speed encoded in these notifications and tell the
usbnet framework to use the new functions to get link speed/state.
Link speed/state is now available via ethtool.

This is especially useful given all current RTL8156 devices emit
a connection/speed status notification every 32ms and this would
fill the dmesg buffer. This implementation replaces the one
recently submitted in de658a195ee23ca6aaffe197d1d2ea040beea0a2 :
   "net: usb: cdc_ncm: don't spew notifications"

v2: rebased on upstream
v3: changed variable names
v4: rewrote commit message

<id>urn:sha1:77651900cede54930cd8a039dcd4583bfa308807</id>
<content type='text'>
The generic functions assumed devices provided an MDIO interface (accessed
via older mii code, not phylib). This is true only for genuine ethernet.

Devices with a higher level of abstraction or based on different
technologies do not have MDIO. To support this case, first rename
the existing functions with _mii suffix.

v2: rebased on changed upstream
v3: changed names to clearly say that this does NOT use phylib
v4: moved hunks to correct patch; reworded commmit messages

The driver data for the data interface has already been set by
usb_driver_claim_interface() so drop the subsequent redundant
assignment.

Note that this also avoids setting the driver data three times in case
of a combined interface.

bind/probe, emit related output with "err" priority.

This converts the driver to use the new tasklet API introduced in
commit 12cc923f1ccc ("tasklet: Introduce new initialization API")

It is unfortunate that we need to add a pointer to the driver context to
get back to the usbnet device, but the space will be reclaimed once
there are no more users of the old API left and we can remove the data
value and flag from the tasklet struct.
