 "Here is another set of reviewed patches that adds SPDX tags to
  different kernel files, based on a set of rules that are being used to
  parse the comments to try to determine that the license of the file is
  "GPL-2.0-or-later" or "GPL-2.0-only". Only the "obvious" versions of
  these matches are included here, a number of "non-obvious" variants of
  text have been found but those have been postponed for later review
  and analysis.

  There is also a patch in here to add the proper SPDX header to a bunch
  of Kbuild files that we have missed in the past due to new files being
  added and forgetting that Kbuild uses two different file names for
  Makefiles. This issue was reported by the Kbuild maintainer.

  These patches have been out for review on the linux-spdx@vger mailing
  list, and while they were created by automatic tools, they were
  hand-verified by a bunch of different people, all whom names are on
  the patches are reviewers"

<title>ethtool: Check for vlan etype or vlan tci when parsing flow_rule</title>

<id>b73484b2fc0d0ba84a13e9d86eb4adcae718163b</id>
<content type='text'>
When parsing an ethtool flow spec to build a flow_rule, the code checks
if both the vlan etype and the vlan tci are specified by the user to add
a FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_VLAN match.

However, when the user only specified a vlan etype or a vlan tci, this
check silently ignores these parameters.

For example, the following rule :

ethtool -N eth0 flow-type udp4 vlan 0x0010 action -1 loc 0

will result in no error being issued, but the equivalent rule will be
created and passed to the NIC driver :

ethtool -N eth0 flow-type udp4 action -1 loc 0

In the end, neither the NIC driver using the rule nor the end user have
a way to know that these keys were dropped along the way, or that
incorrect parameters were entered.

This kind of check should be left to either the driver, or the ethtool
flow spec layer.

This commit makes so that ethtool parameters are forwarded as-is to the
NIC driver.

Since none of the users of ethtool_rx_flow_rule_create are using the
VLAN dissector, I don't think this qualifies as a regression.

NULL or ZERO_SIZE_PTR will be returned for zero sized memory
request, and derefencing them will lead to a segfault

so it is unnecessory to call vzalloc for zero sized memory
request and not call functions which maybe derefence the
NULL allocated memory

this also fixes a possible memory leak if phy_ethtool_get_stats
returns error, memory should be freed before exit

This adds support for Fast Link Down as new PHY tunable.
Fast Link Down reduces the time until a link down event is reported
for 1000BaseT. According to the standard it's 750ms what is too long
for several use cases.

v2:
- add comment describing the constants

clang inlines the dev_ethtool() more aggressively than gcc does, leading
to a larger amount of used stack space:

net/core/ethtool.c:2536:24: error: stack frame size of 1216 bytes in function 'dev_ethtool' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

Marking the sub-functions that require the most stack space as
noinline_for_stack gives us reasonable behavior on all compilers.
