From: Sunil Goutham <sgoutham(a)cavium.com>
[ Upstream commit 87de083857aa269fb171ef0b39696b2888361c58 ]
on T81 there are only 4 cores, hence setting max queue count to 4
would leave nothing for XDP_TX. This patch fixes this by doubling
max queue count in above scenarios.

[ Upstream commit 2067e0a13cfe0b1bdca7b91bc5e4f2740b07d478 ]
On PPv2.2, the streaming mappings can be anywhere in the first 40 bits
of the physical address space. However, for the coherent mappings, we
still need them to be in the first 32 bits of the address space,
because all BM pools share a single register to store the high 32 bits
of the BM pool address, which means all BM pools must be allocated in
the same 4GB memory area.

Subject: net/8021q: create device with all possible features in wanted_features
From: Andrey Vagin <avagin(a)openvz.org>
[ Upstream commit 88997e4208aea117627898e5f6f9801cf3cd42d2 ]
wanted_features is a set of features which have to be enabled if a
hardware allows that.
Currently when a vlan device is created, its wanted_features is set to
current features of its base device.
The problem is that the base device can get new features and they are
not propagated to vlan-s of this device.
If we look at bonding devices, they doesn't have this problem and this
patch suggests to fix this issue by the same way how it works for bonding
devices.
We meet this problem, when we try to create a vlan device over a bonding
device. When a system are booting, real devices require time to be
initialized, so bonding devices created without slaves, then vlan
devices are created and only then ethernet devices are added to the
bonding device. As a result we have vlan devices with disabled
scatter-gather.
* create a bonding device
$ ip link add bond0 type bond
$ ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: off
tx-scatter-gather: off [requested on]
tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off [requested on]
* create a vlan device
$ ip link add link bond0 name bond0.10 type vlan id 10
$ ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: off
tx-scatter-gather: off
tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off
* Add a slave device to bond0
$ ip link set dev eth0 master bond0
And now we can see that the bond0 device has got the scatter-gather
feature, but the bond0.10 hasn't got it.
[root@laptop linux-task-diag]# ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: on
tx-scatter-gather: on
tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: on
[root@laptop linux-task-diag]# ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: off
tx-scatter-gather: off
tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off
With this patch the vlan device will get all new features from the
bonding device.
Here is a call trace how features which are set in this patch reach
dev->wanted_features.

dev->hw_features = NETIF_F_HW_CSUM | NETIF_F_SG |

dev->wanted_features = dev->features & dev->hw_features;

[ Upstream commit ecd7eb7c2bcf99f6c23d68ad56ce15949da848a1 ]
We have to use start port, for TX/RX of single packet,
instead of current aggregating port. This will fix SDIO
CMD53(TX/RX) returning -ETIMEDOUT and halting the data path.
Fixes: 0cb52aac4d19 ("mwifiex: do not set multiport flag for tx/rx single packet")

Subject: mwifiex: cfg80211: do not change virtual interface during scan processing
From: Limin Zhu <liminzhu(a)marvell.com>
[ Upstream commit c61cfe49f0f0f0d1f8b56d0b045838d597e8c3a3 ]
(1) Change virtual interface operation in cfg80211 process reset and
reinitilize private data structure.
(2) Scan result event processed in main process will dereference private
data structure concurrently, ocassionly crash the kernel.
The cornel case could be trigger by below steps:
(1) wpa_cli mlan0 scan
(2) ./hostapd mlan0.conf
Cfg80211 asynchronous scan procedure is not all the time operated
under rtnl lock, here we add the protect to serialize the cfg80211
scan and change_virtual interface operation.
