With my recent commit I introduced two sparse warnings. Looking closer there
were a few more in the same file, so I fixed them all up. Basic rcu pointer
dereferencing suff.

__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is
already held. The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup
outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock.
Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the
rtnl_lock must be held while calling it. Further, it cannot be held, because
rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep.
Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to
get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while
calling __netpoll_cleanup
Tested successfully by myself.

cost when allocating entry, sizeof protocol-speicic data must be
multiple of NEIGH_PRIV_ALIGN. On 64bit archs,

====================
The Linux kernel currently implements the GARP VLAN Registration
Protocol (GVRP) from IEEE 802.1Q-1998 (applicant-only participant).
When the GVRP flag is set for a VLAN interface on a Linux host, the
host advertises its membership in the VLAN to the attached bridge/
switch, so that it is not necessary to manually configure the bridge/
switch port to participate in the VLAN.
GVRP has been superseded by the Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol
(MVRP) in IEEE 802.1Q-2011, which addresses scalability concerns about
the earlier protocol. The following patches add support for MVRP to
the Linux kernel and iproute2 utility. They are based largely off of
the existing implementation of GVRP, but have been modified for the
new PDU structure and state machine.
This implementation was tested with two Juniper EX4200 switches.

====================
At the moment, macvtap crashes are observed if macvtap is attached
to an interface with LRO enabled.
The crash in question is BUG() in macvtap_skb_to_vnet_hdr.
This happens because several drivers set gso_size but not gso_type
in incoming skbs.
This didn't use to be the case: with intel cards on 3.2 and older
kernels, with qlogic - on 3.4 and older kernels, so it's a regression if
not a recent one.
The following patches fix this for qlogic, broadcom and intel drivers.
I tested that the patch fixes the crash for ixgbe but
don't have qlogic/broadcom hardware to test.
I also only tested TCPv4.

In an effort to improve the out-of-the-box experience with Linux kernels for
VMware users, VMware is working on readying the VM Sockets (VSOCK, formerly
VMCI Sockets) (vsock) kernel module for inclusion in the Linux kernel. The
purpose of this post is to acquire feedback on the vsock kernel module.
Unlike previous submissions, where the new socket family was entirely reliant
on VMware's VMCI PCI device (and thus VMware's hypervisor), VM Sockets is now
completely[1] separated out into two parts, each in its own module:
o Core socket code, which is transport-neutral and invokes transport
callbacks to communicate with the hypervisor. This is vsock.ko.
o A VMCI transport, which communicates over VMCI with the VMware hypervisor.
This is vmw_vsock_vmci_transport.ko, and it registers with the core module
as a transport.
This should provide a path to introducing additional transports, for example
virtio, with the ultimate goal being to make this new socket family
hypervisor-neutral.
[1] If Gerd tries it and determines this to be false (still), I'll ship him
a keg of beer.

VM Sockets allows communication between virtual machines and the hypervisor.
User level applications both in a virtual machine and on the host can use the
VM Sockets API, which facilitates fast and efficient communication between
guest virtual machines and their host. A socket address family, designed to be
compatible with UDP and TCP at the interface level, is provided.
Today, VM Sockets is used by various VMware Tools components inside the guest
for zero-config, network-less access to VMware host services. In addition to
this, VMware's users are using VM Sockets for various applications, where
network access of the virtual machine is restricted or non-existent. Examples
of this are VMs communicating with device proxies for proprietary hardware
running as host applications and automated testing of applications running
within virtual machines.
The VMware VM Sockets are similar to other socket types, like Berkeley UNIX
socket interface. The VM Sockets module supports both connection-oriented
stream sockets like TCP, and connectionless datagram sockets like UDP. The VM
Sockets protocol family is defined as "AF_VSOCK" and the socket operations
split for SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM.
For additional information about the use of VM Sockets, please refer to the
VM Sockets Programming Guide available at:

In sctp_auth_make_key_vector, we allocate a temporary sctp_auth_bytes
structure with kmalloc instead of the sctp_auth_create_key allocator.
Change this to sctp_auth_create_key as it is the case everywhere else,
so that we also can properly free it via sctp_auth_key_put. This makes
it easier for future code changes in the structure and allocator itself,
since a single API is consistently used for this purpose. Also, by
using sctp_auth_create_key we're doing sanity checks over the arguments.

so if a multicast message has a hash value collision, we
have to deliver a copy to all macvlans, adding significant

Having a per macvlan hash function permits to reduce the
