This patch removes the msleep(4s) during netpoll_setup() if the carrier
appears instantly.

Here are some scenarios where this workaround is counter-productive in
modern ages:

Servers which have BMC communicating over NC-SI via the same NIC as gets
used for netconsole. BMC will keep the PHY up, hence the carrier
appearing instantly.

The link is fibre, SERDES getting sync could happen within 0.1Hz, and
the carrier also appears instantly.

Other than that, if a driver is reporting instant carrier and then
losing it, this is probably a driver bug.

net: xdp: execute xdp_do_flush() before napi_complete_done()

Make sure that xdp_do_flush() is always executed before
napi_complete_done(). This is important for two reasons. First, a
redirect to an XSKMAP assumes that a call to xdp_do_redirect() from
napi context X on CPU Y will be followed by a xdp_do_flush() from the
same napi context and CPU. This is not guaranteed if the
napi_complete_done() is executed before xdp_do_flush(), as it tells
the napi logic that it is fine to schedule napi context X on another
CPU. Details from a production system triggering this bug using the
veth driver can be found in [1].

The second reason is that the XDP_REDIRECT logic in itself relies on
being inside a single NAPI instance through to the xdp_do_flush() call
for RCU protection of all in-kernel data structures. Details can be
found in [2].

The drivers have only been compile-tested since I do not own any of
the HW below. So if you are a maintainer, it would be great if you
could take a quick look to make sure I did not mess something up.

Note that these were the drivers I found that violated the ordering by
running a simple script and manually checking the ones that came up as
potential offenders. But the script was not perfect in any way. There
might still be offenders out there, since the script can generate
false negatives.

devlink: Cleanup params usage

This patchset takes care of small cleanup of devlink params usage.
Some of the patches (first 2/3) are cosmetic, but I would like to
point couple of interesting ones:

Patch 9 is the main one of this set and introduces devlink instance
locking for params, similar to other devlink objects. That allows params
to be registered/unregistered when devlink instance is registered.

Patches 10-12 change mlx5 code to register non-driverinit params in the
code they are related to, and thanks to patch 8 this might be when
devlink instance is registered - for example during devlink reload.

devlink params even for already registered devlink instance. This is a
bit problematic, as the consistency or params list was originally
secured by the fact it is static during devlink lifetime. So in order to
protect the params list, take devlink instance lock during the params
operations. Introduce unlocked function variants and use them in drivers

====================
ethtool: netlink: handle SET intro/outro in the common code

Factor out the boilerplate code from SET handlers to common code.

I volunteered to refactor the extack in GET in a conversation
with Vladimir but I gave up.

The handling of failures during dump in GET handlers is a bit
unclear to me. Some code uses presence of info as indication
of dump and tries to avoid reporting errors altogether
(including extack messages).

There's also the question of whether we should have a validation
callback (similar to .set_validate here) for GET. It looks like
.parse_request was expected to perform the validation. It takes
the extack and tb directly, not via info:

	int (*parse_request)(struct ethnl_req_info *req_info,
			     struct nlattr **tb,
			     struct netlink_ext_ack *extack);

	int (*prepare_data)(const struct ethnl_req_info *req_info,
			    struct ethnl_reply_data *reply_data,
			    struct genl_info *info);

so no crashes dereferencing info possible.

But .parse_request doesn't run under rtnl nor ethnl_ops_begin().
As a result some implementations defer validation until .prepare_data
where all the locks are held and they can call out to the driver.

All this makes me think that maybe we should refactor GET in the
same direction I'm refactoring SET. Split .prepare_data, take
more locks in the core, and add a validation helper which would
take extack directly:

    - ret = ops->prepare_data(req_info, reply_data, info);
    + ret = ops->prepare_data_validate(req_info, reply_data, attrs, extack);
    + if (ret < 1) // if 0 -> skip for dump; -EOPNOTSUPP in do
    +   goto err1;
    +
    + ret = ethnl_ops_begin(dev);
    + if (ret)
    +   goto err1;
    +
    + ret = ops->prepare_data(req_info, reply_data); // no extack
    + ethnl_ops_complete(dev);

I'll file that away as a TODO for posterity / older me.

Most ethtool SET callbacks follow the same general structure.

  ethnl_parse_header_dev_get()
  rtnl_lock()
  ethnl_ops_begin()

  ... do stuff ...

  ethtool_notify()
  ethnl_ops_complete()
  rtnl_unlock()
  ethnl_parse_header_dev_put()

This leads to a lot of copy / pasted code an bugs when people
mis-handle the error path.

Add a generic implementation of this pattern with a .set callback
in struct ethnl_request_ops called to "do stuff".

Also add an optional .set_validate which is called before
ethnl_ops_begin() -- a lot of implementations do basic request
capability / sanity checking at that point.

Because we want to avoid generating the notification when
no change happened - adopt a slightly hairy return values:
 - 0 means nothing to do (no notification)
 - 1 means done / continue
 - negative error codes on error

Reuse .hdr_attr from struct ethnl_request_ops, GET and SET
use the same attr spaces in all cases.

Convert pause as an example (and to avoid unused function warnings).

====================
net: ipa: abstract status parsing

Under some circumstances, IPA generates a "packet status" structure
that describes information about a packet.  This is used, for
example, when offload hardware detects an error in a packet, or
otherwise discovers a packet needs special handling.  In this case,
the status is delivered (along with the packet it describes) to a
"default" endpoint so that it can be handled by the AP.

Until now, the structure of this status information hasn't changed.
However, to support more than 32 endpoints, this structure required
some changes, such that some fields are rearranged in ways that are
tricky to represent using C code.

This series updates code related to the IPA status structure.  The
first patch uses a local variable to avoid recomputing a packet
length more than once.  The second stops using sizeof() to determine
the size of an IPA packet status structure.  Patches 3-5 extend the
definitions for values held in packet status fields.  Patch 6 does a
little general cleanup to make patch 7 simpler.  Patch 7 stops using
a C structure to represent packet status; instead, a new function
fetches values "by name" from a buffer containing such a structure.
