commit 82bc9ab6a8f577d2174a736c33f3d4ecf7d9ef47 upstream.

When the host-interface bus has hard time handling transmit packets
it informs higher layer about this and it would stop the netdev
queue when needed. However, since commit 9cd18359d31e ("brcmfmac:
Make FWS queueing configurable.") this was broken. With this patch
the behaviour is restored.

<title>iwlwifi: pcie: fix a race in firmware loading flow</title>

commit f16c3ebfa64fdf0e2dc88e6baa72da95ab70ffd7 upstream.

Upon firmware load interrupt (FH_TX), the ISR re-enables the
firmware load interrupt only to avoid races with other
flows as described in the commit below. When the firmware
is completely loaded, the thread that is loading the
firmware will enable all the interrupts to make sure that
the driver gets the ALIVE interrupt.
The problem with that is that the thread that is loading
the firmware is actually racing against the ISR and we can
get to the following situation:

CPU0					CPU1
iwl_pcie_load_given_ucode
	...
	iwl_pcie_load_firmware_chunk
		wait_for_interrupt
					&lt;interrupt&gt;
					ISR handles CSR_INT_BIT_FH_TX
					ISR wakes up the thread on CPU0
	/* enable all the interrupts
	 * to get the ALIVE interrupt
	 */
	iwl_enable_interrupts
					ISR re-enables CSR_INT_BIT_FH_TX only
	/* start the firmware */
	iwl_write32(trans, CSR_RESET, 0);

BUG! ALIVE interrupt will never arrive since it has been
masked by CPU1.

In order to fix that, change the ISR to first check if
STATUS_INT_ENABLED is set. If so, re-enable all the
interrupts. If STATUS_INT_ENABLED is clear, then we can
check what specific interrupt happened and re-enable only
that specific interrupt (RFKILL or FH_TX).

All the credit for the analysis goes to Kirtika who did the
actual debugging work.

<title>iwlwifi: pcie: enable interrupts before releasing the NIC's CPU</title>

commit 2aabdbdc17b7c53490337bfc58de3409c84d85d2 upstream.

The NIC's CPU gets started after the firmware has been
written to its memory. The first thing it does is to
send an interrupt to let the driver know that it is
running. In order to get that interrupt, the driver needs
to make sure it is not masked. Of course, the interrupt
needs to be enabled in the driver before the CPU starts to
run.
I mistakenly inversed those two steps leading to races
which prevented the driver from getting the alive interrupt
from the firmware.
Fix that.

<title>net/bonding: Enforce active-backup policy for IPoIB bonds</title>

[ Upstream commit 1533e77315220dc1d5ec3bd6d9fe32e2aa0a74c0 ]

When using an IPoIB bond currently only active-backup mode is a valid
use case and this commit strengthens it.

Since commit 2ab82852a270 ("net/bonding: Enable bonding to enslave
netdevices not supporting set_mac_address()") was introduced till
4.7-rc1, IPoIB didn't support the set_mac_address ndo, and hence the
fail over mac policy always applied to IPoIB bonds.

With the introduction of commit 492a7e67ff83 ("IB/IPoIB: Allow setting
the device address"), that doesn't hold and practically IPoIB bonds are
broken as of that. To fix it, lets go to fail over mac if the device
doesn't support the ndo OR this is IPoIB device.

As a by-product, this commit also prevents a stack corruption which
occurred when trying to copy 20 bytes (IPoIB) device address
to a sockaddr struct that has only 16 bytes of storage.

This patch fixes the lost of Ethernet port on low memory system,
when driver frees its resources and fails to allocate new resources.
Issue could happen while changing number of channels, rings size or
changing the timestamp configuration.
This fix is necessary because of removing vmap use in the code.
When vmap was in use driver could allocate non-contiguous memory
and make it contiguous with vmap. Now it could fail to allocate
a large chunk of contiguous memory and lose the port.
Current code tries to allocate new resources and then upon success
frees the old resources.
