commit ef1148d4487438a3408d6face2a8360d91b4af70 upstream.

After blamed commit, nexthop_fib6_nh_bh() and nexthop_fib6_nh()
are the same.

Delete nexthop_fib6_nh_bh(), and convert /proc/net/ipv6_route
to standard rcu to avoid this splat:

<title>tcp: fix quick-ack counting to count actual ACKs of new data</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4acf07bafb5812162ab41dc0ef4e8d9f798b5fc0</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 059217c18be6757b95bfd77ba53fb50b48b8a816 ]

This commit fixes quick-ack counting so that it only considers that a
quick-ack has been provided if we are sending an ACK that newly
acknowledges data.

The code was erroneously using the number of data segments in outgoing
skbs when deciding how many quick-ack credits to remove. This logic
does not make sense, and could cause poor performance in
request-response workloads, like RPC traffic, where requests or
responses can be multi-segment skbs.

When a TCP connection decides to send N quick-acks, that is to
accelerate the cwnd growth of the congestion control module
controlling the remote endpoint of the TCP connection. That quick-ack
decision is purely about the incoming data and outgoing ACKs. It has
nothing to do with the outgoing data or the size of outgoing data.

And in particular, an ACK only serves the intended purpose of allowing
the remote congestion control to grow the congestion window quickly if
the ACK is ACKing or SACKing new data.

The fix is simple: only count packets as serving the goal of the
quickack mechanism if they are ACKing/SACKing new data. We can tell
whether this is the case by checking inet_csk_ack_scheduled(), since
we schedule an ACK exactly when we are ACKing/SACKing new data.

[ Upstream commit 37c20b2effe987b806c8de6d12978e4ffeff026f ]

Max Schulze reports crashes with brcmfmac. The reason seems
to be a race between userspace removing the CQM config and
the driver calling cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify(), where if the
data is freed while cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify() runs it will
crash since it assumes wdev-&gt;cqm_config is set. This can't
be fixed with a simple non-NULL check since there's nothing
we can do for locking easily, so use RCU instead to protect
the pointer, but that requires pulling the updates out into
an asynchronous worker so they can sleep and call back into
the driver.

Since we need to change the free anyway, also change it to
go back to the old settings if changing the settings fails.

[ Upstream commit a3ee4dc84c4e9d14cb34dad095fd678127aca5b6 ]

Add a work abstraction at the cfg80211 level that will always
hold the wiphy_lock() for any work executed and therefore also
can be canceled safely (without waiting) while holding that.
This improves on what we do now as with the new wiphy works we
don't have to worry about locking while cancelling them safely.

Also, don't let such works run while the device is suspended,
since they'll likely need to interact with the device. Flush
them before suspend though.
