A crash upon booting that is caused by bcm43xx has been reported [1] and
found to be due to a work queue being reinitialized while work on that
queue is still pending. This fix modifies the shutdown of work queues and
prevents periodic work from being requeued during shutdown. With this patch,
no more crashes on reboot were observed by the original reporter. I do not
get that particular failure on my system; however, when running a large
number of ifdown/ifup sequences, my system would kernel panic with the
'caps lock' light blinking at roughly a 1 Hz rate. In addition, there were
infrequent failures in the firmware that resulted in 'IRQ READY TIMEOUT'
errors. With this patch, no more of the first type of failure occur, and
incidence of the second type is greatly reduced.

This patch solves a problem that the spidernet driver sometimes fails
to handle IRQ.
The problem happens because,
- In Cell architecture, interrupts may arrive at an interrupt
controller, even if they are masked by the setting on registers of
devices. It happens when interrupt packets are sent just before
the interrupts are masked.
- spidernet interrupt handler compares interrupt reasons with
interrupt masks, so when such interrupts occurs, spidernet interrupt
handler returns IRQ_NONE.
- When all of interrupt handler return IRQ_NONE, linux kernel disables
the IRQ and it no longer delivers interrupts to the interrupt handlers.
spidernet doesn't work after above sequence, because it can't receive
interrupts.
This patch changes spidernet interrupt handler that it compares
interrupt reason with SPIDER_NET_INTX_MASK_VALUE.

Introduces a module parameter to decide whether the physical
port link state is propagated to the network stack or not.
It makes sense not to take the physical port state into account
on machines with more logical partitions that communicate
with each other. This is always possible no matter what the physical
port state is. Thus eHEA can be considered as a switch there.

A hardware bug was revealed after a recent PCI MSI patch was made to
always disable legacy INTX when enabling MSI. The 5714/5780 chips
will not generate MSI when INTX is disabled, causing MSI failure
messages to be reported, and another patch was made to workaround the
problem by disabling MSI on ServerWorks HT1000 bridge chips commonly
found with the 5714.
We workaround this chip bug by enabling INTX after we enable MSI and
after we resume from suspend.
Update version to 3.81.

If the forcedeth driver receives too much work in an interrupt, it
assumes it has a broken hardware with stuck IRQ. It works around the
problem by disabling interrupts on the nic but makes a printk while
holding device spinlog - which isn't smart thing to do if you have
netconsole on the same nic.
This patch moves the printk's out of the spinlock protected area.
Without this patch the machine hangs hard. With this patch everything
still works even when there is significant increase on CPU usage while
using the nic.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8797 shows that the
bonding driver may produce bogus combinations of the checksum
flags and SG/TSO.
For example, if you bond devices with NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM you'll end up with a bonding device that
has neither flag set. If both have TSO then this produces
an illegal combination.
The bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to
deal with this.
In fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch
moves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both
bonding and bridging.
In the process I've made small adjustments such as only
setting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device
supports it.
