      sparc64: Update memcpy, memset etc. for M7/M8 architectures
      
      This series of patches updates the memcpy, memset, copy_to_user, copy_from_user
      etc for SPARC M7/M8 architecture.
      
      New algorithm here takes advantage of the M7/M8 block init store ASIs, with much
      more optimized way to improve the performance. More detail are in code comments.
      
      Tested and compared the latency measured in ticks(NG4memcpy vs new M7memcpy).

      There is not much difference in numbers with Un-aligned copies
      between NG4memcpy and M7memcpy because they both mostly use the
      same algorithems.
      
      v2:
       1. Fixed indentation issues found by David Miller
       2. Used ENTRY and ENDPROC for the labels in M7patch.S as suggested by David Miller
       3. Now M8 also will use M7memcpy. Also tested on M8 config.
       4. These patches are created on top of below M8 patches
          https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/792661/
          https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/792662/
          However, I did not see these patches in sparc-next tree. It may be in queue now.
          It is possible these patches might cause some build problems. It will resolve
          once all M8 patches are in sparc-next tree.

      xt_tgchk_param structure.
      
      But it didn't set it's value for ipt_init_target. With unexpected
      value in par.nft_compat, it may return unexpected result in some
      target's checkentry.
      
      This patch is to set all it's fields as 0 and only initialize the
      non-zero fields in ipt_init_target.
      
      v1->v2:
        As Wang Cong's suggestion, fix it by setting all it's fields as
        0 and only initializing the non-zero fields.

      Nikolay Borisov authored
      Commit dcd87999 ("igmp: net: Move igmp namespace init to correct file")
      moved the igmp sysctls initialization from tcp_sk_init to igmp_net_init. This
      function is only called as part of per-namespace initialization, only if
      CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is defined, otherwise igmp_mc_init() call in ip_init is
      compiled out, casuing the igmp pernet ops to not be registerd and those sysctl
      being left initialized with 0. However, there are certain functions, such as
      ip_mc_join_group which are always compiled and make use of some of those
      sysctls. Let's do a partial revert of the aforementioned commit and move the
      sysctl initialization into inet_init_net, that way they will always have
      sane values.

      tipc: remove premature ESTABLISH FSM event at link synchronization · ed43594a
      Jon Paul Maloy authored
      When a link between two nodes come up, both endpoints will initially
      send out a STATE message to the peer, to increase the probability that
      the peer endpoint also is up when the first traffic message arrives.
      Thereafter, if the establishing link is the second link between two
      nodes, this first "traffic" message is a TUNNEL_PROTOCOL/SYNCH message,
      helping the peer to perform initial synchronization between the two
      links.
      
      However, the initial STATE message may be lost, in which case the SYNCH
      message will be the first one arriving at the peer. This should also
      work, as the SYNCH message itself will be used to take up the link
      endpoint before  initializing synchronization.
      
      Unfortunately the code for this case is broken. Currently, the link is
      brought up through a tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) when a SYNCH
      arrives, whereupon __tipc_node_link_up() is called to distribute the
      link slots and take the link into traffic. But, __tipc_node_link_up() is
      itself starting with a test for whether the link is up, and if true,
      returns without action. Clearly, the tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) call
      is unnecessary, since tipc_node_link_up() is itself issuing such an
      event, but also harmful, since it inhibits tipc_node_link_up() to
      perform the test of its tasks, and the link endpoint in question hence
      is never taken into traffic.
      
      This problem has been exposed when we set up dual links between pre-
      and post-4.4 kernels, because the former ones don't send out the
      initial STATE message described above.
      
      We fix this by removing the unnecessary event call.

      sunvdc: prevent sunvdc panic when mpgroup disk added to guest domain · 3ee70591
      Jim Quigley authored
      Using mpgroup to define multiple paths for a virtual disk causes multiple
      virtual-device-port ports to be created for that virtual device.
      Each virtual-device-port port then gets a vdisk created for it by the Linux
      sunvdc driver. As mpgroup is not supported by the Linux sunvdc driver it
      cannot handle multiple ports for a single vdisk, leading to a kernel panic
      at startup.
      
      This fix prevents more than one vdisk per virtual-device-port being created
      until full virtual disk multipathing (mpgroup) support is implemented.
