After the cops driver is removed, ipddp is now the only
CONFIG_DEV_APPLETALK but as far as I can tell, this also has no users
and can be removed, making appletalk support purely based on ethertalk,
using ethernet hardware.

<title>net: Don't include filter.h from net/sock.h</title>

<content type='text'>
sock.h is pretty heavily used (5k objects rebuilt on x86 after
it's touched). We can drop the include of filter.h from it and
add a forward declaration of struct sk_filter instead.
This decreases the number of rebuilt objects when bpf.h
is touched from ~5k to ~1k.

There's a lot of missing includes this was masking. Primarily
in networking tho, this time.

<id>urn:sha1:dbecb011eb781de411daf5d0c8745cd158a55f06</id>
<content type='text'>
appletalk has three SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctl commands that are
broken in compat mode because the passed structure contains
a pointer.

Change it over to ndo_siocdevprivate for consistency and
make it return an error when called in compat mode. This
could be fixed if there are still users.

<title>ipv4: Prepare rtable for IPv6 gateway</title>

<content type='text'>
To allow the gateway to be either an IPv4 or IPv6 address, remove
rt_uses_gateway from rtable and replace with rt_gw_family. If
rt_gw_family is set it implies rt_uses_gateway. Rename rt_gateway
to rt_gw4 to represent the IPv4 version.

Fields -&gt;dev and -&gt;next of struct ipddp_route may be copied to
userspace on the SIOCFINDIPDDPRT ioctl. This is only accessible
to CAP_NET_ADMIN though. Let's manually copy the relevant fields
instead of using memcpy().

ipddp_route structs contain alignment padding so kernel heap memory
is leaked when they are copied to user space in
ipddp_ioctl(SIOCFINDIPDDPRT). Change kmalloc() to kzalloc() to clear
that memory.

<title>net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a52ad514fdf3b8a57ca4322c92d2d8d5c6182485</id>
<content type='text'>
With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev-&gt;min_mtu and dev-&gt;max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.

Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev-&gt;mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev-&gt;max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

v2: fix up lantiq_etop, missed breakage due to drive not compiling on x86

<title>net: better IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0287587884b15041203b3a362d485e1ab1f24445</id>
<content type='text'>
Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.

Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.

Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y

The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.

As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.

This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.

Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :

	dev-&gt;priv_flags &amp;= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
-&gt;
	netif_keep_dst(dev);

Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.

The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.
