Johannes Berg says:
====================
For the first round of fixes, we have this:
* fix for the sizeof() pointer type issue
* a fix for regulatory getting into a restore loop
* a fix for rfkill global 'all' state, it needs to be stored
everywhere to apply correctly to new rfkill instances
* properly refuse CQM RSSI when it cannot actually be used
* protect HT TDLS traffic properly in non-HT networks
* don't incorrectly advertise 80 MHz support when not allowed

Assigning return values that can be negative error codes to "u16"
variables makes them positive, ignoring the errors. Hence use "int"
instead.
Drop the "unlikely"s (unlikely considered harmful) and propagate the
actual error values instead of overriding them to -EIO while we're at
it.

If fec MDIO write method succeeds its return value comes from
call to pm_runtime_get_sync().
But pm_runtime_get_sync() can also return 1.
In case of Micrel KSZ9031 PHY this value will then
be returned along the call chain of phy_write() ->
ksz9031_extended_write() -> ksz9031_center_flp_timing() ->
ksz9031_config_init() -> phy_init_hw() -> phy_attach_direct() ->
phy_connect_direct().
Then phy_connect() will cast it into a pointer using ERR_PTR(),
which then fec_enet_mii_probe() will try to dereference
resulting in an oops.
Fix it by normalizing return value of pm_runtime_get_sync()
to be zero if positive in MDIO write method.

The be_cmd_rx_filter() routine sends a non-embedded cmd to the FW and used
a pre-allocated dma memory to hold the cmd payload. This worked fine when
this cmd was synchronous. This cmd was changed to asynchronous mode by the
commit 8af65c2f4("make the RX_FILTER command asynchronous"). So now when
there are two quick invocations of this cmd, the 2nd request may end up
overwriting the first request, causing FW cmd corruption.
This patch reverts the offending commit and hence fixes the regression.

Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net, they are:
1) Oneliner to restore maps in nf_tables since we support addressing registers
at 32 bits level.
2) Restore previous default behaviour in bridge netfilter when CONFIG_IPV6=n,
oneliner from Bernhard Thaler.
3) Out of bound access in ipset hash:net* set types, reported by Dave Jones'
KASan utility, patch from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
4) Fix ipset compilation with gcc 4.4.7 related to C99 initialization of
unnamed unions, patch from Elad Raz.
5) Add a workaround to address inconsistent endianess in the res_id field of
nfnetlink batch messages, reported by Florian Westphal.
6) Fix error paths of CT/synproxy since the conntrack template was moved to use
kmalloc, patch from Daniel Borkmann.
All of them look good to me to reach 4.2, I can route this to -stable myself
too, just let me know what you prefer.

In the IPv6 multicast routing code the mrt_lock was not being released
correctly in the MFC iterator, as a result adding or deleting a MIF would
cause a hang because the mrt_lock could not be acquired.
This fix is a copy of the code for the IPv4 case and ensures that the lock
is released correctly.

Currently if 80MHz channels are not allowed for use, the VHT IE is not
included in the probe request for an AP. This is not good enough if the
AP is configured with the wrong regulatory and supports VHT even where
prohibited or in TDLS scenarios.
Mark the ifmgd with the DISABLE_VHT flag for the misbehaving-AP case, and
unset VHT support from the peer-station entry for the TDLS case.

HT TDLS traffic should be protected in a non-HT BSS to avoid
collisions. Therefore, when TDLS peers join/leave, check if
protection is (now) needed and set the ht_operation_mode of
the virtual interface according to the HT capabilities of the
TDLS peer(s).
This works because a non-HT BSS connection never sets (or
otherwise uses) the ht_operation_mode; it just means that
drivers must be aware that this field applies to all HT
traffic for this virtual interface, not just the traffic
within the BSS. Document that.

The rate_control_cap_mask() function takes a parameter mcs_mask, which
GCC will take to be u8 * even though it was declared with a fixed size.
This causes the following warning:
net/mac80211/rate.c: In function 'rate_control_cap_mask':
net/mac80211/rate.c:719:25: warning: 'sizeof' on array function parameter 'mcs_mask' will return size of 'u8 * {aka unsigned char *}' [-Wsizeof-array-argument]

This can be easily fixed by using the IEEE80211_HT_MCS_MASK_LEN directly

couple of sctp fixes for 0ca50d12fe46
These are two fixes for sctp after my patch on 0ca50d12fe46 ("sctp: fix
src address selection if using secondary addresses")
The first, fix a dst leak on those it decided to skip.
The second, adds the fallback on src selection that Vlad had asked
about. Unfortunatelly a lot of ipvs setups relies on the old behavior
and I don't see a better fix for it.
Please consider both to -stable tree.

Commit 0ca50d12fe46 added a restriction that the address must belong to
the output interface, so that sctp will use the right interface even
when using secondary addresses.
But it breaks IPVS setups, on which people is used to attach VIP
addresses to loopback interface on real servers. It's preferred to
attach to the interface actually in use, but it's a very common setup
and that used to work.
This patch then saves the first routing good result, even if it would be
going out through an interface that doesn't have that address. If no
better hit found, it's then used. This effectively restores the original
behavior if no better interface could be found.

Fengguang reported, that some randconfig generated the following linker
issue with nf_ct_zone_dflt object involved:
[...]
CC init/version.o
LD init/built-in.o
net/built-in.o: In function `ipv4_conntrack_defrag':
nf_defrag_ipv4.c:(.text+0x93e95): undefined reference to `nf_ct_zone_dflt'

nf_defrag_ipv6_hooks.c:(.text+0xe3ffe): undefined reference to `nf_ct_zone_dflt'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
Given that configurations exist where we have a built-in part, which is
accessing nf_ct_zone_dflt such as the two handlers nf_ct_defrag_user()
and nf_ct6_defrag_user(), and a part that configures nf_conntrack as a
module, we must move nf_ct_zone_dflt into a fixed, guaranteed built-in
area when netfilter is configured in general.
Therefore, split the more generic parts into a common header under
include/linux/netfilter/ and move nf_ct_zone_dflt into the built-in
section that already holds parts related to CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK in the
netfilter core. This fixes the issue on my side.

The patch just to re-submit the patch "db3421c114cfa6326" because the
patch "4d494cdc92b3b9a0" remove the change.
Clear any pending receive interrupt before we process a pending packet.
This helps to avoid any spurious interrupts being raised after we have
fully cleaned the receive ring, while still allowing an interrupt to be
raised if we receive another packet.
The position of this is critical: we must do this prior to reading the
next packet status to avoid potentially dropping an interrupt when a
packet is still pending.

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This first core part of the block IO changes contains:
- Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph. We used to
rely on the uptodate bit and passing around of an error, now we
store the error in the bio itself.
- Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.
- Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
from Jeff Moyer. This caused performance regressions in various
tests. Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
instead.
- Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
when deleting files. Enable the admin to configure the size down.
We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
sectors.
- Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.
- Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
path). From Kent.
- Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
faster. From Ming Lei.
- Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
condition.

Xen's PV network protocol includes messages to add/remove ethernet
multicast addresses to/from a filter list in the backend. This allows
the frontend to request the backend only forward multicast packets
which are of interest thus preventing unnecessary noise on the shared
ring.
The canonical netif header in git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git specifies
the message format (two more XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPEs) so the minimal
necessary changes have been pulled into include/xen/interface/io/netif.h.
To prevent the frontend from extending the multicast filter list
arbitrarily a limit (XEN_NETBK_MCAST_MAX) has been set to 64 entries.
This limit is not specified by the protocol and so may change in future.
If the limit is reached then the next XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_ADD
sent by the frontend will be failed with NETIF_RSP_ERROR.

diag socket's sock_diag_put_filterinfo() dumps classic BPF programs
upon request to user space (ss -0 -b). However, native eBPF programs
attached to sockets (SO_ATTACH_BPF) cannot be dumped with this method:
Their orig_prog is always NULL. However, sock_diag_put_filterinfo()
unconditionally tries to access its filter length resp. wants to copy
the filter insns from there. Internal cBPF to eBPF transformations
attached to sockets don't have this issue, as orig_prog state is kept.
It's currently only used by packet sockets. If we would want to add
native eBPF support in the future, this needs to be done through
a different attribute than PACKET_DIAG_FILTER to not confuse possible
user space disassemblers that work on diag data.

Commit c6cc1ca7f4d70c ("flowi: Abstract out functions to get flow hash
based on flowi") introduced a bug in __skb_set_sw_hash where we
require a dependency on evaluating arguments in a function in order.
There is no such ordering enforced in C, so this incorrect. This
patch fixes that by splitting out the arguments. This bug was
found via a compiler warning that keys may be uninitialized.

Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-09-01
This series contains updates to i40e, ixgbe and ixgbevf.
Anjali fixes a bug in i40e where the port is not receiving multicast or VLAN
tagged packets in promiscuous mode. Which can occur when a software bridge
is created on top of the device.
Don adds support in ixgbe that indicates the presence of management firmware.
Added support for entering low power link up state on devices that support
it when the device is closing or suspending. Updated the driver to report
unknown bus speed and width since IOSF does not report a PCIe bus speed or
width for X550 devices. Also added the new bus type for integrated I/O
interface (IOSF). Cleaned up of redundant code in ixgbe.
Mark adds support for UDP-encapsulation transmit checksum and for VXLAN
receive offloads. Introduces a helper function to do the register access
and processing to avoid needless PHY access on copper PHYs. Added support
for reporting 2.5G link speed. Fixed warnings resulting from redundant
initializations of the get_bus_info field.
Maninder Singh updates the ixgbe driver to use kzalloc instead of kcalloc
for allocation of one thing.
Tom Barbette adds support for ethtool to change the rxfh indirection table
and/or key using ethtool interface.
Emil resolves an issue where users were not able to dynamically set number
of queues for 82598 via ethtool -L.
Alex Williamson removes bimodal SR-IOV disabling behavior since it is
confusing to users and results in a state where the PF is broken for other
uses unless the user sets sriov_numvfs to zero prior to unbinding the
device.

When unbinding an SR-IOV device with VFs configured from ixgbe, the
driver behaves in one of two ways. If max_vfs was specified, the
SR-IOV state is disabled, removing the VFs. The occurs regardless of
whether the VF count was later modified through sysfs. If however
max_vfs is zero, such as by not specifying the module parameter, the
VFs persist after the PF is unbound from ixgbe. If the PF is then
bound to vfio-pci to be assigned to a VM, the PF is non-functional.
>From the comment, commit da36b64736cf ("ixgbe: Implement PCI SR-IOV
sysfs callback operation") clearly intended this alternate behavior,
but probably didn't realize the PF doesn't work in this mode.
This bimodal behavior is confusing to users and results in a state
where the PF is broken for other uses unless the user sets
sriov_numvfs to zero prior to unbinding the device. Remove this
behavior so that VFs are removed and the PF is functional for other
uses after unbind, regardless of the way VFs are enabled.
