Commit fcc5a03ac42564e9e255c1134dda47442289e466:
[NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to fail
makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the
NETDEV_REGISTER event, sent to the registering block.
The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is
not removed from the list, but the error is returned to the
caller. In case the caller is in module init function and
handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but
will be left in the list. Oops :(
I think that the notifier block should be removed from the
chain in case of error, regardless whether this error is
handled by the caller or not. In the worst case (the error
is _not_ handled) module will not receive the events any
longer.

NULL ptr can be returned from tcp_write_queue_head to cached_skb
and then assigned to skb if packets_out was zero. Without this,
system is vulnerable to a carefully crafted ACKs which obviously
is remotely triggerable.
Besides, there's very little that needs to be done in sacktag
if there weren't any packets outstanding, just skipping the rest
doesn't hurt.

Otherwise TCP might violate packet ordering principles that FRTO
is based on. If conventional recovery path is chosen, this won't
be significant at all. In practice, any small enough value will
be sufficient to provide proper operation for FRTO, yet other
users of snd_cwnd might benefit from a "close enough" value.
FRTO's formula is now equal to what tcp_enter_cwr() uses.
FRTO used to check application limitedness a bit differently but
I changed that in commit 575ee7140d
and as a result checking for application limitedness became
completely non-existing.

The only qdiscs that check subqueue state before dequeue'ing are PRIO
and RR. The other qdiscs, including the default pfifo_fast qdisc,
will allow traffic bound for subqueue 0 through to hard_start_xmit.
The check for netif_queue_stopped() is done above in pkt_sched.h, so
it is unnecessary for qdisc_restart(). However, if the underlying
driver is multiqueue capable, and only sets queue states on subqueues,
this will allow packets to enter the driver when it's currently unable
to process packets, resulting in expensive requeues and driver
entries. This patch re-adds the check for the subqueue status before
calling hard_start_xmit, so we can try and avoid the driver entry when
the queues are stopped.

In net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c::sctp_sf_abort_violation() we may leak
the storage allocated for 'abort' by returning from the function
without using or freeing it. This happens in case
"sctp_auth_recv_cid(SCTP_CID_ABORT, asoc)" is true and we jump to
the 'discard' label.
Spotted by the Coverity checker.
The simple fix is to simply move the creation of the "abort chunk"
to after the possible jump to the 'discard' label. This way we don't
even have to allocate the memory at all in the problem case.

The unix_nr_socks value is limited with the 2 * get_max_files() value,
as seen from the unix_create1(). However, the check and the actual
increment are separated with the GFP_KERNEL allocation, so this limit
can be exceeded under a memory pressure - task may go to sleep freeing
the pages and some other task will be allowed to allocate a new sock
and so on and so forth.
So make the increment before the check (similar thing is done in the
sock_kmalloc) and go to kmalloc after this.

Make "decrypt failed" and "have no key" debugging messages compile

Fixes subtle bug like the one with fastpath_cnt_hint happening
due to the way the GSO and hints interact. Because hints are not
reset when just a GSOed skb is partially ACKed, there's no
guarantee that the relevant part of the write queue is going to
be processed in sacktag at all (skbs below snd_una) because
fastpath hint can fast forward the entrypoint.
This was also on the way of future reductions in sacktag's skb
processing. Also future cleanups in sacktag can be made after
this (in 2.6.25).
This may make reordering update in tcp_try_undo_partial
