Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

We are going to add more parameters to find_vqs, let's wrap the call so

Add a struct irq_affinity pointer to the find_vqs methods, which if set
is used to tell the PCI layer to create the MSI-X vectors for our I/O
virtqueues with the proper affinity from the start. Compared to after
the fact affinity hints this gives us an instantly working setup and
allows to allocate the irq descritors node-local and avoid interconnect
traffic. Last but not least this will allow blk-mq queues are created
based on the interrupt affinity for storage drivers.

alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue().
A dedicated workqueue has been used since the workitems are being used
on a packet tx/rx path. Hence, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to guarantee
forward progress under memory pressure.
An ordered workqueue has been used since workitems &cfhsi->wake_up_work
and &cfhsi->wake_down_work cannot be run concurrently.
Calls to flush_workqueue() before destroy_workqueue() have been dropped
since destroy_workqueue() itself calls drain_workqueue() which flushes
repeatedly till the workqueue becomes empty.

src_net points to the netns where the netlink message has been received. This
netns may be different from the netns where the interface is created (because
the user may add IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD]). In this case, src_net is the link netns.
It seems wrong to override the netns in the newlink() handler because if it
was not already src_net, it means that the user explicitly asks to create the
netdevice in another netns.

The commit d75b1ade56 (net: less

It is now required that if the entire budget is consumed when poll
returns, the napi poll_list must remain empty. However, like some
other drivers caif tries to do a last-ditch check and if there is
more work it will call napi_schedule and then immediately process
some of this new work. Should the entire budget be consumed while
processing such new work then we will violate the new caller
contract.
This patch fixes this by not touching any work when we reschedule
in caif.

Add the CAIF Virtio shared memory driver for talking
to a modem.
This CAIF Link layer communicates to the modem over
shared memory. It is implemented as a virtio_driver.
The underlying virtio device is managed by the remoteproc
framework. The Virtio queue is used for transmitting data
to the modem, and the new vringh is used for receiving data.
Genalloc is used for managing the shared memory used for TX
data. The default dma-alloc-coherent allocator can only
allocate whole pages, and this wastes too much shared memory.
Flow control is implemented by stopping the TX-queues if the
virtio queues go full or we run out of memory. Queued are
reopened when queues are below the watermark.
NAPI is used in RX path, and a dedicated tasklet is used
for releasing TX buffers.

Here's the big tty/serial driver patches for 3.9-rc1.
More tty port rework and fixes from Jiri here, as well as lots of
individual serial driver updates and fixes.
All of these have been in the linux-next tree for a while.

The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.
The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.
bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by
removing TTY. The list is filtered to not show removed entries with awk
'$3 != "-"' as the list was very long.

One point is to have less places where we actually need tty pointer.
The other is that low_latency is bound to buffer processing and
buffers are now in tty_port. So it makes sense to move low_latency to
tty_port too.

Fix the failing merge in net-next by reverting the last
net-next merge for caif_hsi.c and then merge in the commit:
"caif-hsi: Bugfix - Piggyback'ed embedded CAIF frame lost"
from the net repository.
The commit:"caif-hsi: Add missing return in error path" from
net repository was dropped, as it changed code previously removed in the
net-next repository.

Conflicts:
drivers/net/caif/caif_hsi.c
drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c
The qmi_wwan merge was trivial.
The caif_hsi.c, on the other hand, was not. It's a conflict between
1c385f1fdf ("caif-hsi: Replace platform
device with ops structure.") in the net-next tree and commit
39abbaef19 ("caif-hsi: Postpone init of
HIS until open()") in the net tree.
I did my best with that one and will ask Sjur to check it out.

Remove use of module parameters on caif hsi device, as
rtnl configuration parameters are already supported.
All caif hsi configuration data is put in cfhsi_config,
and default values in hsi_default_config.

Remove use of struct platform_device, and replace it with
struct cfhsi_ops. Updated variable names in the same
spirit:
cfhsi_get_dev to cfhsi_get_ops,
cfhsi->dev to cfhsi->ops and,
cfhsi->dev.drv to cfhsi->ops->cb_ops.
