Fix build warning on i386 (32-bit) with 32-bit dma_addr_t:

drivers/net/enic/vnic_dev.c: In function 'vnic_dev_init_prov':
drivers/net/enic/vnic_dev.c:716: warning: passing argument 3 of 'pci_alloc_consistent' from incompatible pointer type
include/asm-generic/pci-dma-compat.h:16: note: expected 'dma_addr_t *' but argument is of type 'u64 *'

Now builds without warnings on i386 and on x86_64.

<content type='text'>
To make get/set netlink VF_PORT truly symmetrical, we need to keep track
of what items are set and only return those items on get.  Previously, the
driver wasn't differentiating between a set of attr with a NULL string,
for example, and not setting the attr at all.  We only want to return
the NULL string if the attr was actually set with a NULL string.  Otherwise,
don't return the attr.

<title>net: Add ndo_{set|get}_vf_port support for enic dynamic vnics</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f8bd909183acffad68780b10c1cdf36161cfd5d1</id>
<content type='text'>
Add enic ndo_{set|get}_vf_port ops to support setting/getting
port-profile for enic dynamic devices.  Enic dynamic devices are just like
normal enic eth devices except dynamic enics require an extra configuration
step to assign a port-profile identifier to the interface before the
interface is useable.  Once a port-profile is assigned, link comes up on the
interface and is ready for I/O.  The port-profile is used to configure the
network port assigned to the interface.  The network port configuration
includes VLAN membership, QoS policies, and port security settings typical
of a data center network.

A dynamic enic initially has a zero-mac address.  Before a port-profile is
assigned, a valid non-zero unicast mac address should be assign to the
dynamic enic interface.

Converts the list and the core manipulating with it to be the same as uc_list.

+uses two functions for adding/removing mc address (normal and "global"
 variant) instead of a function parameter.
+removes dev_mcast.c completely.
+exposes netdev_hw_addr_list_* macros along with __hw_addr_* functions for
 manipulation with lists on a sandbox (used in bonding and 80211 drivers)

<title>include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05</id>
<content type='text'>
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
