This patch converts virtio-rng to the new hw_rng API.
In the process it fixes a previously untriggered buffering bug where the
buffer is not drained correctly if it has a non-multiple-of-4 length.
Performance has improved under qemu-kvm testing also.

This patch implements a new method by which hw_random hardware drivers
can pass data to the core more efficiently, using a shared buffer.
The old methods have been retained as a compatability layer until all the
drivers have been updated.

Code was added to mm/higmem.c that depends on several

effect so hopefully we will remember to remove this.

In 2.6.23 kernel, commit a32ea1e1f925399e0d81ca3f7394a44a6dafa12c
("Fix read/truncate race") fixed a race in the generic code, and as a
side effect, now do_generic_file_read() can ask us to readpage() past
the i_size. This seems to be correctly handled by the block routines
(e.g. block_read_full_page() fills the page with zeroes in case if
somebody is trying to read past the last inode's block).
JFFS2 doesn't handle this; it assumes that it won't be asked to read
pages which don't exist -- and thus that there will be at least _one_
valid 'frag' on the page it's being asked to read. It will fill any
holes with the following memset:
memset(buf, 0, min(end, frag->ofs + frag->size) - offset);
When the 'closest smaller match' returned by jffs2_lookup_node_frag() is
actually on a previous page and ends before 'offset', that results in:
memset(buf, 0, <huge unsigned negative>);
Hopefully, in most cases the corruption is fatal, and quickly causing
random oopses, like this:

This patch fixes the issue, plus fixes all LTP tests on NAND/UBI with
JFFS2 filesystem that were failing since 2.6.23 (seems like the bug
above also broke the truncation).

mac80211: RX aggregation: clean up stop session

commit d92684e66091c0f0101819619b315b4bb8b5bcc5
Author: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com>
Date: Mon Jan 28 14:07:22 2008 +0200
mac80211: A-MPDU Tx add delBA from recipient support
The first problem is that I moved a BUG_ON before various
checks -- thereby making it possible to hit. As the comment
indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since the ampdu_action
callback must already exist when the state is != IDLE.
The second problem isn't easily exploitable but there's a
race condition due to unconditionally setting the state to
OPERATIONAL when a delBA frame is received, even when no
aggregation session was ever initiated. All the drivers
accept stopping the session even then, but that opens a
race window where crashes could happen before the driver
accepts it. Right now, a WARN_ON may happen with non-HT
drivers, while the race opens only for HT drivers.
For this case, there are two things necessary to fix it:
1) don't process spurious delBA frames, and be more careful
about the session state; don't drop the lock
2) HT drivers need to be prepared to handle a session stop
even before the session was really started -- this is
true for all drivers (that support aggregation) but
iwlwifi which can be fixed easily. The other HT drivers
(ath9k and ar9170) are behaving properly already.

As the comment indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since
the ampdu_action callback must already exist when the

A similar code path leads to a WARN_ON in
ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session, which can also be removed.

smc91x.h defines SMC_IRQ_FLAGS to be -1 when it wants the interrupt
flags to be taken from the resource structure. However, d280ead
changed this to checking for non-zero resource flags.
Unfortunately, this means that on some platforms, we end up passing
'-1' to request_irq rather than the desired result. Combine the two
conditions into one so that the IRQ flags are taken from the resource
if either SMC_IRQ_FLAGS is -1 or the resource flags specify an
interrupt trigger.
This restores network on at least the Versatile platform.

The newer chipsets (all PCI-E) are known that they need full power cycle
(AC or battery removal) to reset MAC address to a hardwired one. Previous
patch to address this problem loads the original MAC address from EEPROM.
But it brought other problem for which it is necessary to introduce a new
module parameter.
However, it might suffice to restore the initial MAC address before
shutdown/reboot/kexec and when removing the module.

NULL ptr OOPS
ipv4 ip_frag_reasm(), fully replace 'dev_net(dev)' with 'net', defined
previously patched into 2.6.29.
Between 2.6.28.10 and 2.6.29, net/ipv4/ip_fragment.c was patched,
changing from dev_net(dev) to container_of(...). Unfortunately the goto
section (out_fail) on oversized packets inside ip_frag_reasm() didn't
get touched up as well. Oversized IP packets cause a NULL pointer
dereference and immediate hang.
