commit d953ca4ddf71aa91a4596b2ff7ff1598f6ad4708 upstream.

The existing code frees the skb in EAGAIN case, in which the skb will be
retried from upper layer and used again.
Also, the existing code doesn't free send buffer slot in error case, because
there is no completion message for unsent packets.
This patch fixes these problems.

(Please also include this patch for stable trees. Thanks!)

commit 942396b01989d54977120f3625e5ba31afe7a75c upstream.

total_data_buflen is used by netvsc_send() to decide if a packet can be put
into send buffer. It should also include the size of RNDIS message before the
Ethernet frame. Otherwise, a messge with total size bigger than send_section_size
may be copied into the send buffer, and cause data corruption.

[Request to include this patch to the Stable branches]

[ Upstream commit 3a67c9ccad926a168d8b7891537a452018368a5b ]

After the packet is successfully sent, we should not touch the packet
as it may have been freed. This patch is based on the work done by
Long Li &lt;longli@microsoft.com&gt;.

David, please queue this up for stable.

It passes the hash value as the RNDIS Per-packet info to the Hyper-V host,
so that the send completion notices can be spread across multiple channels.

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS

Dave Miller mentioned he'd like to see SET_ETHTOOL_OPS gone.
This does that.

Mostly done via coccinelle script:
@@
struct ethtool_ops *ops;
struct net_device *dev;
@@
-       SET_ETHTOOL_OPS(dev, ops);
+       dev-&gt;ethtool_ops = ops;

Compile tested only, but I'd seriously wonder if this broke anything.

The netlink conflict dealt with moving to netlink_capable() and
netlink_ns_capable() in the 'net' tree vs. supporting 'tc' operations
in non-init namespaces.  These were simple transformations from
netlink_capable to netlink_ns_capable.

The Altera driver conflict was simply code removal overlapping some
void pointer cast cleanups in net-next.
