[ Upstream commit 018349d70f28a78d5343b3660cb66e1667005f8a ]

When netvsc device is removed it can call reschedule in RCU context.
This happens because canceling the subchannel setup work could (in theory)
cause a reschedule when manipulating the timer.

To reproduce, run with lockdep enabled kernel and unbind
a network device from hv_netvsc (via sysfs).

Resolve this by getting RTNL earlier. This is safe because the subchannel
work queue does trylock on RTNL and will detect the race.

Registering another device with same MAC address (such as TAP, VPN or

<title>hv_netvsc: Fix a deadlock by getting rtnl lock earlier in netvsc_probe()</title>

[ Upstream commit e04e7a7bbd4bbabef4e1a58367e5fc9b2edc3b10 ]

This patch fixes the race between netvsc_probe() and
rndis_set_subchannel(), which can cause a deadlock.

These are the related 3 paths which show the deadlock:

path #1:
    Workqueue: hv_vmbus_con vmbus_onmessage_work [hv_vmbus]
    Call Trace:
     schedule
     schedule_preempt_disabled
     __mutex_lock
     __device_attach
     bus_probe_device
     device_add
     vmbus_device_register
     vmbus_onoffer
     vmbus_onmessage_work
     process_one_work
     worker_thread
     kthread
     ret_from_fork

path #2:
    schedule
     schedule_preempt_disabled
     __mutex_lock
     netvsc_probe
     vmbus_probe
     really_probe
     __driver_attach
     bus_for_each_dev
     driver_attach_async
     async_run_entry_fn
     process_one_work
     worker_thread
     kthread
     ret_from_fork

path #3:
    Workqueue: events netvsc_subchan_work [hv_netvsc]
    Call Trace:
     schedule
     rndis_set_subchannel
     netvsc_subchan_work
     process_one_work
     worker_thread
     kthread
     ret_from_fork

Before path #1 finishes, path #2 can start to run, because just before
the "bus_probe_device(dev);" in device_add() in path #1, there is a line
"object_uevent(&amp;dev-&gt;kobj, KOBJ_ADD);", so systemd-udevd can
immediately try to load hv_netvsc and hence path #2 can start to run.

Next, path #2 offloads the subchannal's initialization to a workqueue,
i.e. path #3, so we can end up in a deadlock situation like this:

Path #2 gets the device lock, and is trying to get the rtnl lock;
Path #3 gets the rtnl lock and is waiting for all the subchannel messages
to be processed;
Path #1 is trying to get the device lock, but since #2 is not releasing
the device lock, path #1 has to sleep; since the VMBus messages are
processed one by one, this means the sub-channel messages can't be
procedded, so #3 has to sleep with the rtnl lock held, and finally #2
has to sleep... Now all the 3 paths are sleeping and we hit the deadlock.

With the patch, we can make sure #2 gets both the device lock and the
rtnl lock together, gets its job done, and releases the locks, so #1
and #3 will not be blocked for ever.

[ Upstream commit b19b46346f483ae055fa027cb2d5c2ca91484b91 ]

The recent commit 916c5e1413be ("hv/netvsc: fix handling of fallback
to single queue mode") tried to fix the fallback behavior to a single
queue mode, but it changed the function to return zero incorrectly,
while the function should return an object pointer.  Eventually this
leads to a NULL dereference at the callers that expect non-NULL
value.

Fix it by returning the proper net_device object.

If out ring is full temporarily and receive completion cannot go out,
we may still need to reschedule napi if certain conditions are met.
Otherwise the napi poll might be stopped forever, and cause network
disconnect.

The netvsc device may need to fallback to running in single queue
mode if host side only wants to support single queue.

Recent change for handling mtu broke this in setup logic.

When doing device hotplug the sub channel must be async to avoid
deadlock issues because device is discovered in softirq context.

When doing changes to MTU and number of channels, the setup
must be synchronous to avoid races such as when MTU and device
settings are done in a single ip command.

These fields in struct ndis_ipsecv2_offload and struct ndis_rsc_offload
are one byte according to the specs. This patch defines them with the
right size. These structs are not in use right now, but will be used soon.

<title>hv_netvsc: move VF to same namespace as netvsc device</title>

When VF is added, the paravirtual device is already present
and may have been moved to another network namespace. For example,
sometimes the management interface is put in another net namespace
in some environments.

The VF should get moved to where the netvsc device is when the
VF is discovered. The user can move it later (if desired).

When finding the parent netvsc device, the search needs to be across
all netvsc device instances (independent of network namespace).

Find parent device of VF using upper_dev_get routine which
searches only adjacent list.
