As spotted by Willy Tarreau, current splice() from tcp socket to pipe is not
optimal. It processes at most one segment per call.
This results in low performance and very high overhead due to syscall rate
when splicing from interfaces which do not support LRO.

Willy provided a patch inside tcp_splice_read(), but a better fix
is to let tcp_read_sock() process as many segments as possible, so
that tcp_rcv_space_adjust() and tcp_cleanup_rbuf() are called less
often.

With this change, splice() behaves like tcp_recvmsg(), being able
to consume many skbs in one system call. With typical 1460 bytes
of payload per frame, that means splice(SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK) can return
16*1460 = 23360 bytes.

	7a95d267
	("net: ppp_generic - use idr technique instead of cardmaps")

	ab5024ab
	("net: ppp_generic - use DEFINE_IDR for static initialization")

introduced usage of IDR functionality but broke userspace side.

Before this commits it was possible to allocate new ppp interface with
specified number. Now it fails with EINVAL.  Fix it by trying to
allocate interface with specified unit number and return EEXIST if
fail which allow pppd to ask us to allocate new unit number.

And fix messages on memory allocation fails - add details that it's

The bug introduced by commit 8c7396ae
("gianfar: Merge Tx and Rx interrupt for scheduling clean up ring").

The commit merged TX and RX interrupt code into a single routine that
schedules NAPI, but no locks were introduced. This causes irq races, so
when irqs are enabled and netif_rx_schedule_prep() returns 0, nobody
disable the interrupts again. This leads to interrupt storm and finally
to the lockup.

Currently htb_do_events() breaks events recounting for a level after 2
jiffies, but there is no reason to repeat this for next levels and
increase delays even more (with softirqs disabled). htb_dequeue_tree()

nf_conntrack_alloc cannot return NULL, so there is no need to check for
NULL before using the value.  I have also removed the initialization of ct
to NULL in nf_conntrack_alloc, since the value is never used, and since
perhaps it might lead one to think that return ct at the end might return
NULL.

The PPPOE/VLAN processing code in the bridge netfilter is broken
by design.  The VLAN tag and the PPPOE session ID are an integral
part of the packet flow information, yet they're completely
ignored by the bridge netfilter.  This is potentially a security
hole as it treats all VLANs and PPPOE sessions as the same.

What's more, it's actually broken for PPPOE as the bridge netfilter
tries to trim the packets to the IP length without adjusting the
PPPOE header (and adjusting the PPPOE header isn't much better
since the PPPOE peer may require the padding to be present).

Therefore we should disable this by default.

It does mean that people relying on this feature may lose networking
depending on how their bridge netfilter rules are configured.
However, IMHO the problems this code causes are serious enough to
warrant this.
