Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.

I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.
With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan
and non-vlan interfaces.

The wireless sysfs methods like the rest of the networking sysfs
methods are removed with the rtnl_lock held and block until
the existing methods stop executing.  So use rtnl_trylock
and restart_syscall so that the code continues to work.

Kernel bugzilla #15239

On some workloads, it is quite possible to get a huge dst list to
process in dst_gc_task(), and trigger soft lockup detection.

Fix is to call cond_resched(), as we run in process context.

Add missing try_to_freeze() to one of the pktgen_thread_worker() code
paths so that it doesn't block suspend/hibernation.

This fixes a netstamp_needed accounting issue when the listen socket
has SO_TIMESTAMP set:

    s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
    setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_TIMESTAMP, 1); -> netstamp_needed = 1
    bind(s, ...);
    listen(s, ...);
    s2 = accept(s, ...); -> netstamp_needed = 1
    close(s2); -> netstamp_needed = 0
    close(s); -> netstamp_needed = -1

This updates pktgen so that it does not decrement skb->users
when it receives valid NET_XMIT_xxx values.  These are now
valid return values from ndo_start_xmit in net-next-2.6.
They also indicate the skb has been consumed.

This fixes pktgen to work correctly with vlan devices.
