commit fa42245dff4a5f2f8f208da542acbd80c22f7c65 upstream.

ndo_set_mac_address() passes struct sockaddr * as 2nd parameter to
bgmac_set_mac_address() but code assumed u8 *.  This caused two bytes
chopping and the wrong mac address was configured.

The priv-&gt;cmd_msg_buffer is allocated in the probe function, but never
kfree()ed. This patch converts the kzalloc() to resource-managed

<title>net/mlx4_core: Fix VF overwrite of module param which disables DMFS on new probed PFs</title>

commit 95f1ba9a24af9769f6e20dfe9a77c863f253f311 upstream.

In the VF driver, module parameter mlx4_log_num_mgm_entry_size was
mistakenly overwritten -- and in a manner which overrode the
device-managed flow steering option encoded in the parameter.

log_num_mgm_entry_size is a global module parameter which
affects all ConnectX-3 PFs installed on that host.
If a VF changes log_num_mgm_entry_size, this will affect all PFs
which are probed subsequent to the change (by disabling DMFS for
those PFs).

commit 3608b13ccc51d06e499dfe12b27f134de1286e28 upstream.

Since mlx4 NIC are used on PowerPC with 64K pages, we need to adapt
MLX4_EN_ALLOC_PREFER_ORDER definition.

Otherwise, a fragment sitting in an out of order TCP queue can hold
0.5 Mbytes and it is a serious OOM risk.

commit 9c568fd8844ec3986eb19b0b5d97536243d10d46 upstream.

efx_start_all can return without initialising queues as a reset is pending.
 This means that when netif_device_attach is called, the kernel can start
 sending traffic without having an initialised TX queue to send to.
This patch avoids this by not calling netif_device_attach if there is a
 pending reset.

<title>ath9k: use correct OTP register offsets for the AR9340 and AR9550</title>

commit c9f1e32600816d695f817477d56490bfc2ba43c6 upstream.

This patch fixes the OTP register definitions for the AR934x and AR9550
WMAC SoC.

Previously, the ath9k driver was unable to initialize the integrated
WMAC on an Aerohive AP121:

| ath: phy0: timeout (1000 us) on reg 0x30018: 0xbadc0ffe &amp; 0x00000007 != 0x00000004
| ath: phy0: timeout (1000 us) on reg 0x30018: 0xbadc0ffe &amp; 0x00000007 != 0x00000004
| ath: phy0: Unable to initialize hardware; initialization status: -5
| ath9k ar934x_wmac: failed to initialize device
| ath9k: probe of ar934x_wmac failed with error -5

It turns out that the AR9300_OTP_STATUS and AR9300_OTP_DATA
definitions contain a typo.

<title>ath9k: fix race condition in enabling/disabling IRQs</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 3a5e969bb2f6692a256352649355d56d018d6b88 upstream.

The code currently relies on refcounting to disable IRQs from within the
IRQ handler and re-enabling them again after the tasklet has run.

However, due to race conditions sometimes the IRQ handler might be
called twice, or the tasklet may not run at all (if interrupted in the
middle of a reset).

This can cause nasty imbalances in the irq-disable refcount which will
get the driver permanently stuck until the entire radio has been stopped
and started again (ath_reset will not recover from this).

Instead of using this fragile logic, change the code to ensure that
running the irq handler during tasklet processing is safe, and leave the
refcount untouched.

commit 3a5e969bb2f6692a256352649355d56d018d6b88 upstream.

The code currently relies on refcounting to disable IRQs from within the
IRQ handler and re-enabling them again after the tasklet has run.

However, due to race conditions sometimes the IRQ handler might be
called twice, or the tasklet may not run at all (if interrupted in the
middle of a reset).

This can cause nasty imbalances in the irq-disable refcount which will
get the driver permanently stuck until the entire radio has been stopped
and started again (ath_reset will not recover from this).

Instead of using this fragile logic, change the code to ensure that
running the irq handler during tasklet processing is safe, and leave the
refcount untouched.
