Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with
the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary
fall-through markings when it is the case.

Rework the remaining setsockopt code to pass a sockptr_t instead of a
plain user pointer.  This removes the last remaining set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
outside of architecture specific code.

<content type='text'>
Gengming reported a UAF in lec_arp_clear_vccs(),
where we add a vcc socket to an entry in a per-device
list but free the socket without removing it from the
list when vcc-&gt;dev is NULL.

We need to call lec_vcc_close() to search and remove
those entries contain the vcc being destroyed. This can
be done by calling vcc-&gt;push(vcc, NULL) unconditionally
in vcc_destroy_socket().

Another issue discovered by Gengming's reproducer is
the vcc-&gt;dev may point to the static device lecatm_dev,
for which we don't need to register/unregister device,
so we can just check for vcc-&gt;dev-&gt;ops-&gt;owner.

Many poll() handlers are lockless. Using skb_queue_empty_lockless()
instead of skb_queue_empty() is more appropriate.

This reverts commit dd979b4df817e9976f18fb6f9d134d6bc4a3c317.

This broke tcp_poll for SMC fallback: An AF_SMC socket establishes an
internal TCP socket for the initial handshake with the remote peer.
Whenever the SMC connection can not be established this TCP socket is
used as a fallback. All socket operations on the SMC socket are then
forwarded to the TCP socket. In case of poll, the file-&gt;private_data
pointer references the SMC socket because the TCP socket has no file
assigned. This causes tcp_poll to wait on the wrong socket.

<title>Revert changes to convert to -&gt;poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLL</title>

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"-&gt;poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"-&gt;get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
  individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy  - Linus ]

<title>atm: Preserve value of skb-&gt;truesize when accounting to vcc</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9bbe60a67be5a1c6f79b3c9be5003481a50529ff</id>
<content type='text'>
ATM accounts for in-flight TX packets in sk_wmem_alloc of the VCC on
which they are to be sent. But it doesn't take ownership of those
packets from the sock (if any) which originally owned them. They should
remain owned by their actual sender until they've left the box.

There's a hack in pskb_expand_head() to avoid adjusting skb-&gt;truesize
for certain skbs, precisely to avoid messing up sk_wmem_alloc
accounting. Ideally that hack would cover the ATM use case too, but it
doesn't — skbs which aren't owned by any sock, for example PPP control
frames, still get their truesize adjusted when the low-level ATM driver
adds headroom.

This has always been an issue, it seems. The truesize of a packet
increases, and sk_wmem_alloc on the VCC goes negative. But this wasn't
for normal traffic, only for control frames. So I think we just got away
with it, and we probably needed to send 2GiB of LCP echo frames before
the misaccounting would ever have caused a problem and caused
atm_may_send() to start refusing packets.

Commit 14afee4b609 ("net: convert sock.sk_wmem_alloc from atomic_t to
refcount_t") did exactly what it was intended to do, and turned this
mostly-theoretical problem into a real one, causing PPPoATM to fail
immediately as sk_wmem_alloc underflows and atm_may_send() *immediately*
starts refusing to allow new packets.

The least intrusive solution to this problem is to stash the value of
skb-&gt;truesize that was accounted to the VCC, in a new member of the
ATM_SKB(skb) structure. Then in atm_pop_raw() subtract precisely that
value instead of the then-current value of skb-&gt;truesize.
