The device had an undocumented "feature": it can provide a sequence of
spurious link-down status data even if the link is up all the time.
A sequence of 10 was seen so update the link state only after the device
reports the same link state 20 times.

Some device types support a form of power management in which
the device suggests to the host that the device may be suspended
now. Support for that is best located in usbnet.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:

 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.

 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.

 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.

 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.

 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.

 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.

 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
    Borkmann.

 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
    outgoing networking traffic.  This benefits processes that have very
    many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.

    From Eric Dumazet.

10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
    smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail.  Benefits are
    a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
    allocator c) less waste of space.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.

12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
    limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
    From Stephen Hemminger.

13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
    perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.

Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.

This patch instructs the device to enter its lowest power SUSPEND2
state during system suspend.

This patch also explicitly wakes the device after resume, which
should address reports of the device not automatically coming
back after system suspend:

This patch adds an explicit test that the READY bit is set on
the device when attempting to initialize it.

If this bit is clear then the device hasn't succesfully started
all its clocks, and this patch helps make the resulting logged
error more helpful.
