we want to wake it up so that we will send another START message

When the sunvnet_common code was split out for use by both sunvnet
and the newer ldmvsw, it was made into a static kernel library, which
limits the usefulness of sunvnet and ldmvsw as loadables, since most
of the real work is being done in the shared code. Also, this is
simply dead code in kernels that aren't running the LDoms.
This patch makes the sunvnet_common into a dynamically loadable
module and makes sunvnet and ldmvsw dependent on sunvnet_common.

Firmware files are versioned to prevent older
driver instances to load unsupported firmware
blobs. This is reflected with a fallback logic
which attempts to load several firmware files.
This however produced a lot of unnecessary
warnings sometimes confusing users and leading
them to rename firmware files making things even
more confusing.
Hence use request_firmware_direct() which does not
produce extra warnings. This shouldn't really
break anything because most modern systems don't
rely on udev/hotplug helpers to load firmware
files anymore. For example it was confirmed that
LEDE does not user helper.
This also fixes a 60 second delay per _each_
unexistent firmware/calibration file with distros
which have CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK
enabled, RHEL being a notable example. Using
ath10k with firmware-2.bin this might end up
into a five minute delay in boot.

sfc: prevent bogus interrupt-mode fallbacks
EF10 VFs only support MSI-X interrupts, not MSI or legacy. This series
stops the probe logic from trying to fallback to those if MSI-X interrupt
probe fails. It also prevents selecting them with the interrupt_mode
module parameter.
This avoids producing messages like "failed to hook legacy IRQ 0" and "IRQ
handler type mismatch for IRQ 0", and ensures that the relevant error
(from the attempt to enable MSI-X) is reported to the caller.

This fixes the below crash when ath10k probe firmware fails, NAPI polling tries
to access a rx ring resource which was never allocated. An easy way to
reproduce this is easy to remove all the firmware files, load ath10k modules
and ath10k will crash when calling 'rmmod ath10k_pci'. The fix is to call
napi_enable() from ath10k_pci_hif_start() so that it matches with
napi_disable() being called from ath10k_pci_hif_stop().
Big thanks to Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan who debugged this and provided first

====================
IPv4-mapped on wire, :: dst address issue
Under some circumstances IPv6 datagrams are sent with IPv4-mapped IPv6
addresses as the source. Given an IPv6 socket bound to an IPv4-mapped
IPv6 address, and an IPv6 destination address, both TCP and UDP will
will send packets using the IPv4-mapped IPv6 address as the source. Per
RFC 6890 (Table 20), IPv4-mapped IPv6 source addresses are not allowed
in an IP datagram. The problem can be observed by attempting to
connect() either a TCP or UDP socket, or by using sendmsg() with a UDP
socket. The patch is intended to correct this issue for all socket
types.
linux follows the BSD convention that an IPv6 destination address
specified as in6addr_any is converted to the loopback address.
Currently, neither TCP nor UDP consider the possibility that the source
address is an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address, and assume that the appropriate
loopback address is ::1. The patch adds a check on whether or not the
source address is an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address and then sets the
destination address to either ::ffff:127.0.0.1 or ::1, as appropriate.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
This patch adds a check on the type of the source address for the case
where the destination address is in6addr_any. If the source is an
IPv4-mapped IPv6 source address, the destination is changed to
::ffff:127.0.0.1, and otherwise the destination is changed to ::1. This
is done in three locations to handle UDP calls to either connect() or
sendmsg() and TCP calls to connect(). Note that udpv6_sendmsg() delays
handling an in6addr_any destination until very late, so the patch only
needs to handle the case where the source is an IPv4-mapped IPv6
address.

This driver supports the Lantiq SSC SPI controller in master
mode. This controller is found on Intel (former Lantiq) SoCs like
the Danube, Falcon, xRX200, xRX300.
The hardware uses two hardware FIFOs one for received and one for
transferred bytes. When the driver writes data into the transmit FIFO
the complete word is taken from the FIFO into a shift register. The
data from this shift register is then written to the wire. This driver
uses the interrupts signaling the status of the FIFOs and not the shift
register. It is also possible to use the interrupts for the shift
register, but they will send a signal after every word. When using the
interrupts for the shift register we get a signal when the last word is
written into the shift register and not when it is written to the wire.
After all FIFOs are empty the driver busy waits till the hardware is
not busy any more and returns the transfer status.

The problem is that when the kernel tries to truncate an inode in
ext4_truncate(), it tries to clear any on-disk data beyond i_size.
Without the encryption key, it can't do that, and so it triggers a
BUG.
E2fsck does *not* provide this service, and in practice most file
systems have their orphan list processed by e2fsck, so to avoid
crashing, this patch skips this step if we don't have access to the
encryption key (which is the case when processing the orphan list; in
all other cases, we will have the encryption key, or the kernel
wouldn't have allowed the file to be opened).
An open question is whether the fact that e2fsck isn't clearing the
bytes beyond i_size causing problems --- and if we've lived with it
not doing it for so long, can we drop this from the kernel replay of
the orphan list in all cases (not just when we don't have the key for
encrypted inodes).
