commit 4ab42d78e37a294ac7bc56901d563c642e03c4ae upstream.

Currently slhc_init() treats out-of-range values of rslots and tslots
as equivalent to 0, except that if tslots is too large it will
dereference a null pointer (CVE-2015-7799).

Add a range-check at the top of the function and make it return an
ERR_PTR() on error instead of NULL.  Change the callers accordingly.

Compile-tested only.

commit 48900cb6af4282fa0fb6ff4d72a81aa3dadb5c39 upstream.

virtio declares support for NETIF_F_FRAGLIST, but assumes
that there are at most MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 2 fragments which isn't
always true with a fraglist.

A longer fraglist in the skb will make the call to skb_to_sgvec overflow
the sg array, leading to memory corruption.

Drop NETIF_F_FRAGLIST so we only get what we can handle.

commit 25b401c1816ae64bcc5dcb1d39ab41812522a0ce upstream.

If a valid power regulator or a dummy regulator is used (which
happens to be the case when no regulator is specified), restart_work
is queued no matter whether the device was running or not at suspend
time. Since work queues get initialized in the ndo_open callback,
resuming leads to a NULL pointer exception.

Reverse exactly the steps executed at suspend time:
- Enable the power regulator in any case
- Enable the transceiver regulator if the device was running, even in
  case we have a power regulator
- Queue restart_work only in case the device was running

commit f1590670ce069eefeb93916391a67643e6ad1630 upstream.

Current implementation of descriptor init procedure only takes
care about setting/clearing ownership flag in "des0"/"des1"
fields while it is perfectly possible to get unexpected bits
set because of the following factors:

 [1] On driver probe underlying memory allocated with
     dma_alloc_coherent() might not be zeroed and so
     it will be filled with garbage.

 [2] During driver operation some bits could be set by SD/MMC
     controller (for example error flags etc).

And unexpected and/or randomly set flags in "des0"/"des1"
fields may lead to unpredictable behavior of GMAC DMA block.

This change addresses both items above with:

 [1] Use of dma_zalloc_coherent() instead of simple
     dma_alloc_coherent() to make sure allocated memory is
     zeroed. That shouldn't affect performance because
     this allocation only happens once on driver probe.

 [2] Do explicit zeroing of both "des0" and "des1" fields
     of all buffer descriptors during initialization of
     DMA transfer.

And while at it fixed identation of dma_free_coherent()
counterpart as well.

AR93xx and newer needs to stop rx before tx to avoid getting the DMA

This should reduce/fix the occurence of "Failed to stop Tx DMA" logspam.

commit e3958e9d60b4570fff709f397ef5c6b8483f40f7 upstream.

These are used like:

	set_bit(WORK_LINK_UP, &amp;priv-&gt;work_pending);

The problem is that set_bit() takes the actual bit number and not a mask
so static checkers get upset.  It doesn't affect run time because we do
it consistently, but we may as well clean it up.

commit 414b7e3b9ce8b0577f613e656fdbc36b34b444dd upstream.

The USB mini-driver in rtlwifi, which is used by rtl8192cu, issues a call to
usb_control_msg() with a timeout value of 0. In some instances where the
interface is shutting down, this infinite wait results in a CPU deadlock. A
one second timeout fixes this problem without affecting any normal operations.

This bug is reported at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927786.
