In some cases, the network device driver knows what layer-3 address the
device should have. This adds support for the Phonet stack to
automatically request from the driver and add that address to the
network device.

384912ed19 net: Add DEVTYPE support for Ethernet based devices
The Ethernet framing is used for a lot of devices these days. Most
prominent are WiFi and WiMAX based devices. However for userspace
application it is important to classify these devices correctly and
not only see them as Ethernet devices. The daemons like HAL, DeviceKit
or even NetworkManager with udev support tries to do the classification
in userspace with a lot trickery and extra system calls. This is not
good and actually reaches its limitations. Especially since the kernel
does know the type of the Ethernet device it is pretty stupid.

To solve this problem the underlying device type needs to be set and
then the value will be exported as DEVTYPE via uevents and available
within udev.

  # cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/uevent
  DEVTYPE=wlan
  INTERFACE=wlan0
  IFINDEX=5

This is similar to subsystems like USB and SCSI that distinguish
between hosts, devices, disks, partitions etc.

The new SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE() is a convenience helper to set the actual
device type. All device types are free form, but for convenience the
same strings as used with RFKILL are choosen.

48659d3119 tracing: move tgid out of generic entry and into userstack
The userstack trace required the recording of the tgid entry.
Unfortunately, it was added to the generic entry where it wasted
4 bytes of every entry and was only used by one entry.

This patch moves it out of the generic field and moves it into the
only user (userstack_entry).

5e605b64a1 block: add blk-iopoll, a NAPI like approach for block devices
This borrows some code from NAPI and implements a polled completion
mode for block devices. The idea is the same as NAPI - instead of
doing the command completion when the irq occurs, schedule a dedicated
softirq in the hopes that we will complete more IO when the iopoll
handler is invoked. Devices have a budget of commands assigned, and will
stay in polled mode as long as they continue to consume their budget
from the iopoll softirq handler. If they do not, the device is set back
to interrupt completion mode.

This patch holds the core bits for blk-iopoll, device driver support
sold separately.

fb1e75389b block: improve queue_should_plug() by looking at IO depths
Instead of just checking whether this device uses block layer
tagging, we can improve the detection by looking at the maximum
queue depth it has reached. If that crosses 4, then deem it a
queuing device.

This is important on high IOPS devices, since plugging hurts
the performance there (it can be as much as 10-15% of the sys
time).

80a761fd33 block: implement mixed merge of different failfast requests
Failfast has characteristics from other attributes.  When issuing,
executing and successuflly completing requests, failfast doesn't make
any difference.  It only affects how a request is handled on failure.
Allowing requests with different failfast settings to be merged cause
normal IOs to fail prematurely while not allowing has performance
penalties as failfast is used for read aheads which are likely to be
located near in-flight or to-be-issued normal IOs.

This patch introduces the concept of 'mixed merge'.  A request is a
mixed merge if it is merge of segments which require different
handling on failure.  Currently the only mixable attributes are
failfast ones (or lack thereof).

When a bio with different failfast settings is added to an existing
request or requests of different failfast settings are merged, the
merged request is marked mixed.  Each bio carries failfast settings
and the request always tracks failfast state of the first bio.  When
the request fails, blk_rq_err_bytes() can be used to determine how
many bytes can be safely failed without crossing into an area which
requires further retrials.

This allows request merging regardless of failfast settings while
keeping the failure handling correct.

This patch only implements mixed merge but doesn't enable it.  The
next one will update SCSI to make use of mixed merge.

a82afdfcb8 block: use the same failfast bits for bio and request
bio and request use the same set of failfast bits.  This patch makes
the following changes to simplify things.

* enumify BIO_RW* bits and reorder bits such that BIOS_RW_FAILFAST_*
  bits coincide with __REQ_FAILFAST_* bits.

* The above pushes BIO_RW_AHEAD out of sync with __REQ_FAILFAST_DEV
  but the matching is useless anyway.  init_request_from_bio() is
  responsible for setting FAILFAST bits on FS requests and non-FS
  requests never use BIO_RW_AHEAD.  Drop the code and comment from
  blk_rq_bio_prep().

* Define REQ_FAILFAST_MASK which is OR of all FAILFAST bits and
  simplify FAILFAST flags handling in init_request_from_bio().

03ba3782e8 writeback: switch to per-bdi threads for flushing data
This gets rid of pdflush for bdi writeout and kupdated style cleaning.
pdflush writeout suffers from lack of locality and also requires more
threads to handle the same workload, since it has to work in a
non-blocking fashion against each queue. This also introduces lumpy
behaviour and potential request starvation, since pdflush can be starved
for queue access if others are accessing it. A sample ffsb workload that
does random writes to files is about 8% faster here on a simple SATA drive
during the benchmark phase. File layout also seems a LOT more smooth in
vmstat:

A 10 disk test with btrfs performs 26% faster with per-bdi flushing. A
SSD based writeback test on XFS performs over 20% better as well, with
the throughput being very stable around 1GB/sec, where pdflush only
manages 750MB/sec and fluctuates wildly while doing so. Random buffered
writes to many files behave a lot better as well, as does random mmap'ed
writes.

A separate thread is added to sync the super blocks. In the long term,
adding sync_supers_bdi() functionality could get rid of this thread again.

2ab7e1ecb8 [SCSI] libfc: send GPN_ID in reaction to single-port RSCNs.
When an RSCN indicates changes to individual remote ports,
don't blindly log them out and then back in.  Instead, determine
whether they're still in the directory, by doing GPN_ID.

If that is successful, call login, which will send ADISC and reverify,
otherwise, call logoff.  Perhaps we should just delete the rport,
not send LOGO, but it seems safer.

Also, fix a possible issue where if a mix of records in the RSCN
cause us to queue disc_ports for disc_single and then we decide
to do full rediscovery, we leak memory for those disc_ports queued.

So, go through the list of disc_ports even if doing full discovery.
Free the disc_ports in any case.  If any of the disc_single() calls
return error, do a full discovery.

The ability to fill in GPN_ID requests was added to fc_ct_fill().
For this, it needs the FC_ID to be passed in as an arg.
The did parameter for fc_elsct_send() is used for that, since the
actual D_DID will always be 0xfffffc for all CT requests so far.
