<title>netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-2</title>

<content type='text'>
We have some reasons to kill netdev-&gt;priv:
1. netdev-&gt;priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev-&gt;priv's offset, obviously
   netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev-&gt;priv.
But we cann't kill netdev-&gt;priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.

This patch is a safe convert for netdev-&gt;priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
Since all of the netdev-&gt;priv is only for read.
But it is too big to be sent in one mail.
I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes,
which is max size allowed by vger.

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev-&gt;last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the -&gt;last_rx value themselves.

Plip uses spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq in its IRQ handler (called from
parport IRQ handler), the latter enables interrupts without parport
subsystem IRQ handler expecting it.

The bug can be seen if you compile kernel with lock dependency checking
and use plip --- it produces a warning.

This patch changes it to spin_lock_irqsave/spin_lock_irqrestore, so that
it doesn't enable interrupts when already disabled.

<title>plip: fix parport_register_device name parameter</title>

Plip passes a string "name" that is allocated on stack to
parport_register_device.  parport_register_device holds the pointer to
"name" and when the registering function exits, it points nowhere.

On some machine, this bug causes bad names to appear in /proc, such as
/proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/devices/T^/�X^/�, on others, the plip
proc node is completely missing.

The patch also fixes documentation to note this requirement.

<title>plip: use netif_rx_ni() for packet receive</title>

netif_rx is meant to be called from interrupts because it doesn't wake
up ksoftirqd.  For calling from outside interrupts, netif_rx_ni exists.

This fixes plip to use netif_rx_ni.  It fixes the infamous error "NOHZ:
local_softirq_panding 08" that happens on some machines with NOHZ and
plip --- it is caused by the fact that softirq is pending and ksoftirqd
is sleeping.
