[ Upstream commit 93aa4792c3908eac87ddd368ee0fe0564148232b ]

When the ring buffer is almost full due to RX completion messages, a
TX packet may reach the "low watermark" and cause the queue stopped.
If the TX completion arrives earlier than queue stopping, the wakeup
may be missed.

This patch moves the check for the last pending packet to cover both
EAGAIN and success cases, so the queue will be reliably waked up when
necessary.

[ Upstream commit 1b704c4a1ba95574832e730f23817b651db2aa59 ]

After queue stopped, the wakeup mechanism may wake it up again
when ring buffer usage is lower than a threshold. This may cause
send path panic on NULL pointer when we stopped all tx queues in
netvsc_detach and start removing the netvsc device.

This patch fix it by adding a tx_disable flag to prevent unwanted
queue wakeup.

Incoming packets may have IP header checksum verified by the host.
They may not have IP header checksum computed after coalescing.
This patch re-compute the checksum when necessary, otherwise the
packets may be dropped, because Linux network stack always checks it.

Changing mtu, channels, or buffer sizes ops call to netvsc_attach(),
rndis_set_subchannel(), which always reset the hash key to default
value. That will override hash key changed previously. This patch
fixes the problem by save the hash key, then restore it when we re-
add the netvsc device.

A follow-up patch will add a notifier type NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR, which
allows vetoing of MAC address changes. One prominent path to that
notification is through dev_set_mac_address(). Therefore give this
function an extack argument, so that it can be packed together with the
notification. Thus a textual reason for rejection (or a warning) can be
communicated back to the user.

In order to pass extack together with NETDEV_PRE_UP notifications, it's
necessary to route the extack to __dev_open() from diverse (possibly
indirect) callers. One prominent API through which the notification is
invoked is dev_change_flags().

Therefore extend dev_change_flags() with and extra extack argument and
update all users. Most of the calls end up just encoding NULL, but
several sites (VLAN, ipvlan, VRF, rtnetlink) do have extack available.

Since the function declaration line is changed anyway, name the other
function arguments to placate checkpatch.
