      cfg80211: fix WARN_ON for re-association to the expired BSS · 4c4d684a
      Ujjal Roy authored 
      cfg80211 allows re-association in managed mode and if a user
wants to re-associate to the same AP network after the time
period of IEEE80211_SCAN_RESULT_EXPIRE, cfg80211 warns with
the following message on receiving the connect result event.

The reason is that, in connect result event cfg80211 unholds
the BSS to which the device is associated (and was held so
far). So, for the event with status successful, when cfg80211
wants to get that BSS from the device's BSS list it gets a
NULL BSS because the BSS has been expired and unheld already.

Fix it by reshuffling the code.

--------------------------- cut here -------------------------------

The reason is that when the bridge dev's address is changed, the
br_fdb_change_mac_address() will add new address in fdb, but when
the bridge was removed, the address entry in the fdb did not free,
the bridge_fdb_cache still has objects when destroy the cache, Fix
this by flushing the bridge address entry when removing the bridge.

v2: according to the Toshiaki Makita and Vlad's suggestion, I only
    delete the vlan0 entry, it still have a leak here if the vlan id
    is other number, so I need to call fdb_delete_by_port(br, NULL, 1)
    to flush all entries whose dst is NULL for the bridge.

      net: core: Always propagate flag changes to interfaces · d2615bf4
      Vlad Yasevich authored 
      The following commit:
    b6c40d68
    net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP

tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting.
The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that
was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count.
This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently
down.

A later commit:
    deede2fa
    vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces

fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up,
thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN.

The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack
involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans,
then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to
the physical devices.  A simple examle of the scenario is the
following:

  eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50

If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to
the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is
currently required for operation as part of the bridge.  As a
result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface.

The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are
VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect
flag propagation.  As a result we can remove the generic solution
introduced in b6c40d68 and leave
it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block
flag propagation or not.

      ipv4: fix race in concurrent ip_route_input_slow() · dcdfdf56
      Alexei Starovoitov authored 
      CPUs can ask for local route via ip_route_input_noref() concurrently.
if nh_rth_input is not cached yet, CPUs will proceed to allocate
equivalent DSTs on 'lo' and then will try to cache them in nh_rth_input
via rt_cache_route()
Most of the time they succeed, but on occasion the following two lines:
	orig = *p;
	prev = cmpxchg(p, orig, rt);
in rt_cache_route() do race and one of the cpus fails to complete cmpxchg.
But ip_route_input_slow() doesn't check the return code of rt_cache_route(),
so dst is leaking. dst_destroy() is never called and 'lo' device
refcnt doesn't go to zero, which can be seen in the logs as:
	unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1
Adding mdelay() between above two lines makes it easily reproducible.
Fix it similar to nh_pcpu_rth_output case.

Fixes: d2d68ba9 ("ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops.")

====================
r8152 bug fixes

For the patch #3, I add netif_tx_lock() before checking the
netif_queue_stopped(). Besides, I add checking the skb queue
length before waking the tx queue.
