The implementation of the link FSM currently takes decisions about and
sends out link protocol messages. This is unnecessary, since such
actions are not the result of any link state change, and are even
decided based on non-FSM state information ("silent_intv_cnt").
We now move the sending of unicast link protocol messages to the
function tipc_link_timeout(), and the initial broadcast synchronization
message to tipc_node_link_up(). The latter is done because a link
instance should not need to know whether it is the first or second
link to a destination. Such information is now restricted to and
handled by the link aggregation layer in node.c

Link failover and synchronization have until now been handled by the
links themselves, forcing them to have knowledge about and to access
parallel links in order to make the two algorithms work correctly.
In this commit, we move the control part of this functionality to the
link aggregation level in node.c, which is the right location for this.
As a result, the two algorithms become easier to follow, and the link
implementation becomes simpler.

In many cases the call order when a link is reset goes as follows:
tipc_node_xx()->tipc_link_reset()->tipc_node_link_down()
This is not the right order if we want the node to be in control,
so in this commit we change the order to:
tipc_node_xx()->tipc_node_link_down()->tipc_link_reset()
The fact that tipc_link_reset() now is called from only one
location with a well-defined state will also facilitate later
simplifications of tipc_link_reset() and the link FSM.

In line with our effort to let the node level have full control over
its links, we want to move all link reset calls from link.c to node.c.
Some of the calls can be moved by simply moving the calling function,
when this is the right thing to do. For the remaining calls we use
the now established technique of returning a TIPC_LINK_DOWN_EVT
flag from tipc_link_rcv(), whereafter we perform the reset call when
the call returns.
This change serves as a preparation for the coming commits.

The function tipc_link_activate() is redundant, since it mostly performs
settings that have already been done in a preceding tipc_link_reset().
There are three exceptions to this:
- The actual state change to TIPC_LINK_WORKING. This should anyway be done
in the FSM, and not in a separate function.
- Registration of the link with the bearer. This should be done by the
node, since we don't want the link to have any knowledge about its
specific bearer.
- Call to tipc_node_link_up() for user access registration. With the new
role distribution between link aggregation and link level this becomes
the wrong call order; tipc_node_link_up() should instead be called
directly as a result of a TIPC_LINK_UP event, hence by the node itself.
This commit implements those changes.

Commit 6fd99094de ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface")
disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop
limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition.
RFC 4861, 6.3.4. Processing Received Router Advertisements
A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time,
and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is
unspecified. In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the
host should continue using whatever value it is already using.
If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set
its CurHopLimit variable to the received value.
So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum
hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC
standards.

During recent discussions we had with Michael, we found that it would
be useful to have an indicator that tells the JIT that an eBPF program
had been migrated from classic instructions into eBPF instructions, as
only in that case A and X need to be cleared in the prologue. Such eBPF
programs do not set a particular type, but all have BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC.
Thus, introduce a small helper for cde66c2d88 ("s390/bpf: Only clear
A and X for converted BPF programs") and possibly others in future.

As JITs start to perform optimizations whether to clear A and X on eBPF
programs in the prologue, we should actually assign a program type to the
native eBPF test cases. It doesn't really matter which program type, as
these instructions don't go through the verifier, but it needs to be a
type != BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC. This reflects eBPF programs loaded via bpf(2)
system call (!= type unspec) vs. classic BPF to eBPF migrations (== type
unspec).

When transmitting a packet via a mac802154 driver that can sleep in
its transmit function, mac802154 defers the call to the driver's
transmit function to a per-device workqueue.
However, mac802154 uses a single global work_struct for this, which
means that if you have more than one registered mac802154 interface
in the system, and you transmit on more than one of them at the same
time, you'll very easily cause memory corruption.
This patch moves the deferred transmit processing state from global
variables to struct ieee802154_local, and this seems to fix the memory
corruption issue.

btusb currently has a generic match on USB device descriptors:
{ USB_DEVICE_INFO(0xe0, 0x01, 0x01) },
However, http://www.usb.org/developers/defined_class states:
Base Class E0h (Wireless Controller)
This base class is defined for devices that are Wireless controllers.
Values not shown in the table below are reserved. These class codes are
to be used in Interface Descriptors, with the exception of the Bluetooth
class code which can also be used in a Device Descriptor.
Add a match on the interface descriptors accordingly.
This fixes compatibility with the RTL8723AU device shown below.
This device conforms to the USB Interface Association Descriptor
specification, which requires the device to have class ef/02/01.
The extra IAD descriptor then specifies that interfaces 0 and 1
belong to the same function/driver, which is true. Provided that
the Bluetooth device class spec accepts use of the IAD, I imagine that
technically, all btusb devices should be configured like this.

Introduce Mellanox Technologies Switch ASICs switchdev drivers
This patchset introduces Mellanox Technologies Switch driver infrastructure
and support for SwitchX-2 ASIC.
The driver is divided into 3 logical parts:
1) Bus - implements switch bus interface. Currently only PCI bus is
implemented, but more buses will be added in the future. Namely I2C
and SGMII.
(patch #2)
2) Driver - implemements of ASIC-specific functions.
Currently SwitchX-2 ASIC is supported, but a plan exists to introduce
support for Spectrum ASIC in the near future.
(patch #4)
3) Core - infrastructure that glues buses and drivers together.
It implements register access logic (EMADs) and takes care of RX traps
and events.

Ethernet Management Datagrams (EMADs) are Ethernet packets sent between

Another use case is notifications sent from the device to the host,
letting it know about certain events, such as port up / down.
Add the ability to construct EMADs with provisions to construct and
parse the registers' payloads. Implement EMAD transaction layer
which is responsible for the reliable transmission of EMADs. Also, add
