These are full of unresolved problems, mainly that conversions don't
work 1-1 from hrtimers to tasklet_hrtimers because unlike hrtimers
tasklets can't be killed from softirq context.
And when a qdisc gets reset, that's exactly what we need to do here.
We'll work this out in the net-next-2.6 tree and if warranted we'll
backport that work to -stable.
This reverts the following 3 changesets:

("pkt_sched: Fix bogon in tasklet_hrtimer changes.")

("pkt_sched: Convert CBQ to tasklet_hrtimer.")

After commit 2b85a34e91
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
sk_free() frees socks conditionally and depends
on sk_wmem_alloc being set e.g. in sock_init_data(). But in some
cases sk_free() is called earlier, usually after other alloc errors.
Fix is to move sk_wmem_alloc initialization from sock_init_data()
to sk_alloc() itself.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14053
If we're in the case where we need to force a reencode and then resend of
the RPC request, due to xprt_transmit failing with a networking error, then
we _must_ retransmit the entire request.

The NFSv4 and NFSv4.1 protocols both allow for the redirection of a client
from one server to another in order to support filesystem migration and
replication. For full protocol support, we need to add the ability to
convert a DNS host name into an IP address that we can feed to the RPC
client.
We'll reuse the sunrpc cache, now that it has been converted to work with
rpc_pipefs.

In 5e140dfc1f "net: reorder struct Qdisc
for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic
changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to
userland via netlink.
Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason.
Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and
teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land,
using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic)

The networking code checks CAP_SYS_MODULE before using request_module() to
try to load a kernel module. While this seems reasonable it's actually
weakening system security since we have to allow CAP_SYS_MODULE for things
like /sbin/ip and bluetoothd which need to be able to trigger module loads.
CAP_SYS_MODULE actually grants those binaries the ability to directly load
any code into the kernel. We should instead be protecting modprobe and the
modules on disk, rather than granting random programs the ability to load code
directly into the kernel. Instead we are going to gate those networking checks
on CAP_NET_ADMIN which still limits them to root but which does not grant
those processes the ability to load arbitrary code into the kernel.

We splice skbs from the pending queue for a TID
onto the local pending queue when tearing down a
block ack request. This is not necessary unless we
actually have received a request to start a block ack
request (rate control, for example). If we never received
that request we should not be splicing the tid pending
queue as it would be null, causing a panic.
Not sure yet how exactly we allowed through a call when the
tid state does not have at least HT_ADDBA_REQUESTED_MSK set,
that will require some further review as it is not quite
obvious.

kernel_sendpage() does the proper default case handling for when the
socket doesn't have a native sendpage implementation.
Now, arguably this might be something that we could instead solve by
just specifying that all protocols should do it themselves at the
protocol level, but we really only care about the common protocols.
Does anybody really care about sendpage on something like Appletalk? Not
likely.

For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited
sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An
alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the
cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends.
The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall
mechanisms for these particular cases.

While we do want to protect against multiple concurrent readers and writers
on each upcall/downcall pipe, we don't want to limit concurrent reading and
writing to separate caches.
This patch therefore replaces the static buffer 'write_buf', which can only
be used by one writer at a time, with use of the page cache as the
temporary buffer for downcalls. We still fall back to using the the old
global buffer if the downcall is larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, since this is
apparently needed by the SPKM security context initialisation.
It then replaces the use of the global 'queue_io_mutex' with the
inode->i_mutex in cache_read() and cache_write().

In order to allow rpc_pipefs to create directories with different types of
subtrees, it is useful to allow the caller to customise the subtree filling
process.
In order to do so, we separate out the parts which are specific to making

the process of filling the directory contents into a callback.
