drivers/net/appletalk: Convert timers to use timer_setup()

2017-10-18T11:39:55Z

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer() to pass the timer pointer explicitly. Adds a static variable to hold the polled net_device. Cc: David Howells Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

appletalk: Remove unneeded synchronization

2017-10-18T11:39:55Z

The use of del_timer_sync() will make sure a timer is not rescheduled. As such, there is no need to add external signals to kill timers. In preparation for switching the timer callback argument to the timer pointer, this drops the .data argument since it doesn't serve a meaningful purpose here.

Annotate hardware config module parameters in drivers/net/appletalk/

2017-04-20T11:02:32Z

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a device to access or modify the kernel image. To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down. The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the default values for those parameters is. Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition to manually coded parameters. This patch annotates drivers in drivers/net/appletalk/. Suggested-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: David Howells cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org
