commit c031235b395433350f25943b7580a5e343c7b7b2 upstream.

Don't flap VCs when carrier state changes; higher-level protocols
can detect loss of connectivity and act accordingly. This is more
consistent with how other network interfaces work.

We no longer use release_vccs() so we can delete it.

release_vccs() was duplicated from net/atm/common.c; make the
corresponding function exported, since other code duplicates it
and could leverage it if it were public.

<title>atm/solos-pci: Don't include frame pseudo-header on transmit hex-dump</title>

commit 18b429e74eeafe42e947b1b0f9a760c7153a0b5c upstream.

Omit pkt_hdr preamble when dumping transmitted packet as hex-dump;
we can pull this up because the frame has already been sent, and
dumping it is the last thing we do with it before freeing it.

Also include the size, vpi, and vci in the debug as is done on
receive.

Use "port" consistently instead of "device" intermittently.

<title>ATM, Solos PCI ADSL2+: Don't deref NULL pointer if net_ratelimit() and alloc_skb() interact badly.</title>

<content type='text'>
If alloc_skb() fails to allocate memory and returns NULL then we want to
return -ENOMEM from drivers/atm/solos-pci.c::popen() regardless of the
value of net_ratelimit(). The way the code is today, we may not return if
net_ratelimit() returns 0, then we'll proceed to pass a NULL pointer to
skb_put() which will blow up in our face.
This patch ensures that we always return -ENOMEM on alloc_skb() failure
and only let the dev_warn() be controlled by the value of net_ratelimit().

Zero stats were returned to user in case of (zero != 0), also memcpy()
was pointless.

<title>Madge Ambassador ATM Adapter driver: Always release_firmware() in ucode_init() and don't leak memory.</title>

Failure to call release_firmware() will result in memory leak in
drivers/atm/ambassador.c::ucode_init().
This patch makes sure we always call release_firmware() when needed,
thus removing the leak(s).

Yes, I know checkpatch complains about this patch, but it was either that
or completely mess up the existing style, so I opted to use the existing
style and live with the checkpatch related flak.

The earlier call to atm_dev_lookup increases the reference count of dev,
so decrease it on the way out.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@@
expression x, E;
constant C;
@@

x = atm_dev_lookup(...);
... when != false x != NULL
    when != true x == NULL
    when != \(E = x\|x = E\)
    when != atm_dev_put(dev);
*return -C;
