      net: smsc911x: back out silently on probe deferrals · ab4e4c07
      Linus Walleij authored
      When trying to get a regulator we may get deferred and we see
      this noise:
      
      smsc911x 1b800000.ethernet-ebi2 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized):
         couldn't get regulators -517
      
      Then the driver continues anyway. Which means that the regulator
      may not be properly retrieved and reference counted, and may be
      switched off in case noone else is using it.
      
      Fix this by returning silently on deferred probe and let the
      system work it out.

      ibmveth: set correct gso_size and gso_type · 7b596738
      Thomas Falcon authored
      This patch is based on an earlier one submitted
      by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message:
      
      "We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the
      same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was
      enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the
      one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly.
      
      We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size
      which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is
      used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large,
      it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer
      was completely empty."
      
      We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries
      environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum
      field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum
      offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS.
      
      Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer.
      This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

      Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm · 810ac7b7
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
       "Several fixes to the DSM (ACPI device specific method) marshaling
        implementation.
      
        I consider these urgent enough to send for 4.9 consideration since
        they fix the kernel's handling of ARS (Address Range Scrub) commands.
        Especially for platforms without machine-check-recovery capabilities,
        successful execution of ARS commands enables the platform to
        potentially break out of an infinite reboot problem if a media error
        is present in the boot path. There is also a one line fix for a
        device-dax read-only mapping regression.
      
        Commits 9a901f54 ("acpi, nfit: fix extended status translations
        for ACPI DSMs") and 325896ff ("device-dax: fix private mapping
        restriction, permit read-only") are true regression fixes for changes
        introduced this cycle.
      
        Commit efda1b5d ("acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status
        output length handling") fixes the kernel's handling of zero-length
        results, this never would have worked in the past, but we only just
        recently discovered a BIOS implementation that emits this arguably
        spec non-compliant result.
      
        The remaining two commits are additional fall out from thinking
        through the implications of a zero / truncated length result of the
        ARS Status command.
      
        In order to mitigate the risk that these changes introduce yet more
        regressions they are backstopped by a new unit test in commit
        a7de92da ("tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()") that
        mocks up inputs to acpi_nfit_ctl()"
