Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

<title>tipc: Unclone message at secondary destination lookup</title>

<content type='text'>
When a bundling message is received, the function tipc_link_input()
calls function tipc_msg_extract() to unbundle all inner messages of
the bundling message before adding them to input queue.

The function tipc_msg_extract() just clones all inner skb for all
inner messagges from the bundling skb. This means that the skb
headroom of an inner message overlaps with the data part of the
preceding message in the bundle.

If the message in question is a name addressed message, it may be
subject to a secondary destination lookup, and eventually be sent out
on one of the interfaces again. But, since what is perceived as headroom
by the device driver in reality is the last bytes of the preceding
message in the bundle, the latter will be overwritten by the MAC
addresses of the L2 header. If the preceding message has not yet been
consumed by the user, it will evenually be delivered with corrupted
contents.

This commit fixes this by uncloning all messages passing through the
function tipc_msg_lookup_dest(), hence ensuring that the headroom
is always valid when the message is passed on.

We change the initialization of the skb transmit buffer queues
in the functions tipc_bcast_xmit() and tipc_rcast_xmit() to also
initialize their spinlocks. This is needed because we may, during
error conditions, need to call skb_queue_purge() on those queues
further down the stack.

In commit e3a77561e7d32 ("tipc: split up function tipc_msg_eval()"),
we have updated the function tipc_msg_lookup_dest() to set the error
codes to negative values at destination lookup failures. Thus when
the function sets the error code to -TIPC_ERR_NO_NAME, its inserted
into the 4 bit error field of the message header as 0xf instead of
TIPC_ERR_NO_NAME (1). The value 0xf is an unknown error code.

In this commit, we set only positive error code.

For a bond slave device as a tipc bearer, the dev represents the bond
interface and orig_dev represents the slave in tipc_l2_rcv_msg().
Since we decode the tipc_ptr from bonding device (dev), we fail to
find the bearer and thus tipc links are not established.

In this commit, we register the tipc protocol callback per device and
look for tipc bearer from both the devices.

If we fail to find a valid bearer in tipc_node_get_linkname(),
node_read_unlock() is called without holding the node read lock.

This commit fixes this error.

In tipc_msg_reverse(), we assign skb attributes to local pointers
in stack at startup. This is followed by skb_linearize() and for
cloned buffers we perform skb relocation using pskb_expand_head().
Both these methods may update the skb attributes and thus making
the pointers incorrect.

In this commit, we fix this error by ensuring that the pointers
are re-assigned after any of these skb operations.

when needed")

<title>tipc: perform skb_linearize() before parsing the inner header</title>

In tipc_rcv(), we linearize only the header and usually the packets
are consumed as the nodes permit direct reception. However, if the
skb contains tunnelled message due to fail over or synchronization
we parse it in tipc_node_check_state() without performing
linearization. This will cause link disturbances if the skb was
non linear.

In this commit, we perform linearization for the above messages.
