Existing primitive has several problems:
	1) calling conventions are clumsy - it returns a dentry reference
that is either identical to its second argument or is an ERR_PTR(-E...);
in both cases no refcount changes happen.  Inconvenient for users and
bug-prone; it would be better to have it return 0 on success and -E... on
failure.
	2) it allows cross-directory moves; however, no such caller have
ever materialized and considering the way debugfs is used, it's unlikely
to happen in the future.  What's more, any such caller would have fun
issues to deal with wrt interplay with recursive removal.  It also makes
the calling conventions clumsier...
	3) tautological rename fails; the callers have no race-free way
to deal with that.
	4) new name must have been formed by the caller; quite a few
callers have it done by sprintf/kasprintf/etc., ending up with considerable
boilerplate.

Proposed replacement: int debugfs_change_name(dentry, fmt, ...).  All callers
convert to that easily, and it's simpler internally.

IMO debugfs_rename() should go; if we ever get a real-world use case for
cross-directory moves in debugfs, we can always look into the right way
to handle that.

<title>Revert "net: hsr: use hlist_head instead of list_head for mac addresses"</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e012764cebf6e33097f6833ff15a936fbe7b846c</id>
<content type='text'>
The hlist optimisation (which not only uses hlist_head instead of
list_head but also splits hsr_priv::node_db into an array of 256 slots)
does not consider the "node merge":
Upon starting the hsr network (with three nodes) a packet that is
sent from node1 to node3 will also be sent from node1 to node2 and then
forwarded to node3.
As a result node3 will receive 2 packets because it is not able
to filter out the duplicate. Each packet received will create a new
struct hsr_node with macaddress_A only set the MAC address it received
from (the two MAC addesses from node1).
At some point (early in the process) two supervision frames will be
received from node1. They will be processed by hsr_handle_sup_frame()
and one frame will leave early ("Node has already been merged") and does
nothing. The other frame will be merged as portB and have its MAC
address written to macaddress_B and the hsr_node (that was created for
it as macaddress_A) will be removed.
From now on HSR is able to identify a duplicate because both packets
sent from one node will result in the same struct hsr_node because
hsr_get_node() will find the MAC address either on macaddress_A or
macaddress_B.

Things get tricky with the optimisation: If sender's MAC address is
saved as macaddress_A then the lookup will work as usual. If the MAC
address has been merged into macaddress_B of another hsr_node then the
lookup won't work because it is likely that the data structure is in
another bucket. This results in creating a new struct hsr_node and not
recognising a possible duplicate.

A way around it would be to add another hsr_node::mac_list_B and attach
it to the other bucket to ensure that this hsr_node will be looked up
either via macaddress_A _or_ macaddress_B.

I however prefer to revert it because it sounds like an academic problem
rather than real life workload plus it adds complexity. I'm not an HSR
expert with what is usual size of a network but I would guess 40 to 60
nodes. With 10.000 nodes and assuming 60us for pass-through (from node
to node) then it would take almost 600ms for a packet to almost wrap
around which sounds a lot.

Revert the hash MAC addresses optimisation.

<content type='text'>
Currently, HSR manages mac addresses of known HSR nodes by using list_head.
It takes a lot of time when there are a lot of registered nodes due to
finding specific mac address nodes by using linear search. We can be
reducing the time by using hlist. Thus, this patch moves list_head to
hlist_head for mac addresses and this allows for further improvement of
network performance.

    Condition: registered 10,000 known HSR nodes

<id>urn:sha1:8f4c0e01789c18674acdf17cae3822b3dc3db715</id>
<content type='text'>
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is another redundancy protocol
introduced by IEC 63439 standard. It is similar to HSR in many
aspects:-

 - Use a pair of Ethernet interfaces to created the PRP device
 - Use a 6 byte redundancy protocol part (RCT, Redundancy Check
   Trailer) similar to HSR Tag.
 - Has Link Redundancy Entity (LRE) that works with RCT to implement
   redundancy.

Key difference is that the protocol unit is a trailer instead of a
prefix as in HSR. That makes it inter-operable with tradition network
components such as bridges/switches which treat it as pad bytes,
whereas HSR nodes requires some kind of translators (Called redbox) to
talk to regular network devices. This features allows regular linux box
to be converted to a DAN-P box. DAN-P stands for Dual Attached Node - PRP
similar to DAN-H (Dual Attached Node - HSR).

Add a comment at the header/source code to explicitly state that the
driver files also handles PRP protocol as well.
