Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains five Netfilter fixes for your net tree,
they are:
1) Silence a warning on falling back to vmalloc(). Since 88eab472ec21, we can
easily hit this warning message, that gets users confused. So let's get rid
of it.
2) Recently when porting the template object allocation on top of kmalloc to
fix the netns dependencies between x_tables and conntrack, the error
checks where left unchanged. Remove IS_ERR() and check for NULL instead.
Patch from Dan Carpenter.
3) Don't ignore gfp_flags in the new nf_ct_tmpl_alloc() function, from
Joe Stringer.
4) Fix a crash due to NULL pointer dereference in ip6t_SYNPROXY, patch from
Phil Sutter.
5) The sequence number of the Syn+ack that is sent from SYNPROXY to clients is
not adjusted through our NAT infrastructure, as a result the client may
ignore this TCP packet and TCP flow hangs until the client probes us. Also
from Phil Sutter.

The 'wacom_wireless_work' function does not recalculate the tablet's
resolution, causing the value contained in the 'features' struct to
always be reported to userspace. This value is valid only for the pen
interface, meaning that the value will be incorrect for the touchpad (if
present). This in particular causes problems for libinput which relies
on the reported resolution being correct.
This patch adds the necessary calls to recalculate the resolution for
each interface. This requires a little bit of code shuffling since both
the 'wacom_set_default_phy' and 'wacom_calculate_res' are declared below
their new first point of use in 'wacom_wireless_work'.

Writing each 4Kb page into flash might take up-to ~100 miliseconds,
during which time management firmware cannot acces the nvram for its
own uses.
Firmware upgrade utility use the ethtool API to burn new flash images
for the device via the ethtool API, doing so by writing several page-worth

management firmware, as the nvram might not be accessible for a long time.

the completion of each page, allowing the management firmware time to

Add an explicit neighbour table overflow message (ratelimited) and
statistic to make diagnosing neighbour table overflows tractable in
the wild.
Diagnosing a neighbour table overflow can be quite difficult in the wild
because there is no explicit dmesg logged. Callers to neighbour code
seem to use net_dbg_ratelimit when the neighbour call fails which means
the "base message" is not emitted and the callback suppressed messages
from the ratelimiting can end-up juxtaposed with unrelated messages.
Further, a forced garbage collection will increment a stat on each call
whether it was successful in freeing-up a table entry or not, so that
statistic is only a hint. So, add a net_info_ratelimited message and
explicit statistic to the neighbour code.

cpu 0 cpu 1
fec_enet_txq_submit_skb
reserve a bdp for the first fragment
fec_enet_txq_submit_frag_skb
update the bdp for the other fragment
update txq->cur_tx
fec_enet_tx_queue
bdp = fec_enet_get_nextdesc(txq->dirty_tx, fep, queue_id);
This bdp is the bdp reserved for the first segment. Given
that this bdp BD_ENET_TX_READY bit is not set and txq->cur_tx
is already pointed to a bdp beyond this one. We think this is a
completed bdp and try to reclaim it.
update the bdp for the first segment
update txq->cur_tx
So we shouldn't update the txq->cur_tx until all the update to the
bdps used for fragments are performed. Also add the corresponding
memory barrier to guarantee that the update to the bdps, dirty_tx and
cur_tx performed in the proper order.

It seems so far plausible that the recursive call into rtnetlink_rcv()
looks suspicious. One way, where this could trigger is that the senders
NETLINK_CB(skb).portid was wrongly 0 (which is rtnetlink socket), so
the rtnl_getlink() request's answer would be sent to the kernel instead
to the actual user process, thus grabbing rtnl_mutex() twice.
One theory would be that netlink_autobind() triggered via netlink_sendmsg()
internally overwrites the -EBUSY error to 0, but where it is wrongly
originating from __netlink_insert() instead. That would reset the
socket's portid to 0, which is then filled into NETLINK_CB(skb).portid
later on. As commit d470e3b483dc ("[NETLINK]: Fix two socket hashing bugs.")
also puts it, -EBUSY should not be propagated from netlink_insert().
It looks like it's very unlikely to reproduce. We need to trigger the
rhashtable_insert_rehash() handler under a situation where rehashing
currently occurs (one /rare/ way would be to hit ht->elasticity limits
while not filled enough to expand the hashtable, but that would rather
require a specifically crafted bind() sequence with knowledge about
destination slots, seems unlikely). It probably makes sense to guard
__netlink_insert() in any case and remap that error. It was suggested
that EOVERFLOW might be better than an already overloaded ENOMEM.
