[ Upstream commit befdf8978accecac2e0739e6b5075afc62db37fe ]

pci_match_id() just match the static pci_device_id, which may return NULL if
someone binds the driver to a device manually using
/sys/bus/pci/drivers/.../new_id.

This patch wrap up a helper function __mlx4_remove_one() which does the tear
down function but preserve the drv_data. Functions like
mlx4_pci_err_detected() and mlx4_restart_one() will call this one with out
releasing drvdata.

Fixes: 97a5221 "net/mlx4_core: pass pci_device_id.driver_data to __mlx4_init_one during reset".

[ No upstream commit, this is a cherry picked backport enabler. ]

The second parameter of __mlx4_init_one() is used to identify whether the
pci_dev is a PF or VF. Currently, when it is invoked in mlx4_pci_slot_reset()
this information is missed.

This patch match the pci_dev with mlx4_pci_table and passes the
pci_device_id.driver_data to __mlx4_init_one() in mlx4_pci_slot_reset().

<title>vxlan: use dev-&gt;needed_headroom instead of dev-&gt;hard_header_len</title>

[ Upstream commit 2853af6a2ea1a8ed09b09dd4fb578e7f435e8d34 ]

When we mirror packets from a vxlan tunnel to other device,
the mirror device should see the same packets (that is, without
outer header). Because vxlan tunnel sets dev-&gt;hard_header_len,
tcf_mirred() resets mac header back to outer mac, the mirror device
actually sees packets with outer headers

Vxlan tunnel should set dev-&gt;needed_headroom instead of
dev-&gt;hard_header_len, like what other ip tunnels do. This fixes
the above problem.

[ Upstream commit 87757a917b0b3c0787e0563c679762152be81312 ]

unregister_netdevice_many() API is error prone and we had too
many bugs because of dangling LIST_HEAD on stacks.

See commit f87e6f47933e3e ("net: dont leave active on stack LIST_HEAD")

In fact, instead of making sure no caller leaves an active list_head,
just force a list_del() in the callee. No one seems to need to access
the list after unregister_netdevice_many()

And I tend to agree based on the similarity with the two Olicard

[ Upstream commit 9d0d68faea6962d62dd501cd6e71ce5cc8ed262b ]

Now it is not possible to set mtu to team device which has a port
enslaved to it. The reason is that when team_change_mtu() calls
dev_set_mtu() for port device, notificator for NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU
event is called and team_device_event() returns NOTIFY_BAD forbidding
the change. So fix this by returning NOTIFY_DONE here in case team is
changing mtu in team_change_mtu().

commit c98235cb8584a72e95786e17d695a8e5fafcd766 upstream.

The mlx4 driver is triggering schedules while atomic inside
mlx4_en_netpoll:

	spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;cq-&gt;lock, flags);
	napi_synchronize(&amp;cq-&gt;napi);
		^^^^^ msleep here
	mlx4_en_process_rx_cq(dev, cq, 0);
	spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;cq-&gt;lock, flags);

This was part of a patch by Alexander Guller from Mellanox in 2011,
but it still isn't upstream.

<title>brcmsmac: fix deadlock on missing firmware</title>

commit 8fc1e8c240aab968db658b2d8d079b4391207a36 upstream.

When brcm80211 firmware is not installed networking hangs.
A deadlock happens because we call ieee80211_unregister_hw()
from the .start callback of struct ieee80211_ops. When .start
is called we are under rtnl lock and ieee80211_unregister_hw()
tries to take it again.

Function call stack:

dev_change_flags()
	__dev_change_flags()
		__dev_open()
			ASSERT_RTNL() &lt;-- Assert rtnl lock
			ops-&gt;ndo_open()

.ndo_open = ieee80211_open,

ieee80211_open()
	ieee80211_do_open()
		drv_start()
			local-&gt;ops-&gt;start()

.start = brcms_ops_start,

brcms_ops_start()
	brcms_remove()
		ieee80211_unregister_hw()
			rtnl_lock() &lt;-- Here we deadlock

Introduced by:
commit 25b5632fb35ca61b8ae3eee235edcdc2883f7a5e
("brcmsmac: request firmware in .start() callback")

This patch fixes the bug by removing the call to brcms_remove()
and moves the brcms_request_fw() call to the top of the .start
callback to not initiate anything unless firmware is installed.
