Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Revert iwlwifi reclaimed packet tracking, it causes problems for a
    bunch of folks.  From Emmanuel Grumbach.

 2) Work limiting code in brcmsmac wifi driver can clear tx status
    without processing the event.  From Arend van Spriel.

 3) rtlwifi USB driver processes wrong SKB, fix from Larry Finger.

 4) l2tp tunnel delete can race with close, fix from Tom Parkin.

 5) pktgen_add_device() failures are not checked at all, fix from Cong
    Wang.

 6) Fix unintentional removal of carrier off from tun_detach(),
    otherwise we confuse userspace, from Michael S.  Tsirkin.

 7) Don't leak socket reference counts and ubufs in vhost-net driver,
    from Jason Wang.

 8) vmxnet3 driver gets it's initial carrier state wrong, fix from Neil
    Horman.

 9) Protect against USB networking devices which spam the host with 0
    length frames, from Bjørn Mork.

10) Prevent neighbour overflows in ipv6 for locally destined routes,
    from Marcelo Ricardo.  This is the best short-term fix for this, a
    longer term fix has been implemented in net-next.

11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops.  This
    mistake is largely because the ipv6 functions don't even have some
    kind of prefix in their names to suggest they are ipv6 specific.
    From Tom Parkin.

12) Check SYN packet drops properly in tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(), from
    Yuchung Cheng.

13) Fix races and TX skb freeing bugs in via-rhine's NAPI support, from
    Francois Romieu and your's truly.

14) Fix infinite loops and divides by zero in TCP congestion window
    handling, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Ilpo Järvinen.

15) AF_PACKET tx ring handling can leak kernel memory to userspace, fix
    from Phil Sutter.

16) Fix error handling in ipv6 GRE tunnel transmit, from Tommi Rantala.

17) Protect XEN netback driver against hostile frontend putting garbage
    into the rings, don't leak pages in TX GOP checking, and add proper
    resource releasing in error path of xen_netbk_get_requests().  From
    Ian Campbell.

18) SCTP authentication keys should be cleared out and released with
    kzfree(), from Daniel Borkmann.

19) L2TP is a bit too clever trying to maintain skb-&gt;truesize, and ends
    up corrupting socket memory accounting to the point where packet
    sending is halted indefinitely.  Just remove the adjustments
    entirely, they aren't really needed.  From Eric Dumazet.

20) ATM Iphase driver uses a data type with the same name as the S390
    headers, rename to fix the build.  From Heiko Carstens.

21) Fix a typo in copying the inner network header offset from one SKB
    to another, from Pravin B Shelar.

In commit 6509141f9c2ba74df6cc72ec35cd1865276ae3a4 ("usbnet: add new
flag FLAG_NOARP for usb net devices"), the newly added flag NOARP was
using an already defined value, which broke drivers using flag
MULTI_PACKET.

<content type='text'>
The macro for_each_memcg_cache_index contains a silly yet potentially
deadly mistake.  Although the macro parameter is _idx, the loop tests
are done over i, not _idx.

This hasn't generated any problems so far, because all users use i as a
loop index.  However, while playing with an extension of the code I
ended using another loop index and the compiler was quick to complain.

Unfortunately, this is not the kind of thing that testing reveals =(

A device sending 0 length frames as fast as it can has been
observed killing the host system due to the resulting memory
pressure.

Temporarily disable RX skb allocation and URB submission when
the current error ratio is high, preventing us from trying to
allocate an infinite number of skbs.  Reenable as soon as we
are finished processing the done queue, allowing the device
to continue working after short error bursts.

<id>urn:sha1:83e68189745ad931c2afd45d8ee3303929233e7f</id>
<content type='text'>
Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from
EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now
indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with
bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware.

The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at,

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557

which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is
designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become
bricked. Also, the following report,

    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121

details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check
Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're
running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression,

    if (!efi_enabled)

hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time.

Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons -
what they really want access to is the list of available EFI
facilities.

For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke
the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while
the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were
mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform
driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which
would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things).

This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.
