<content type='text'>
Macro for_each_child_of_node() makes it easy to iterate over all of the
children for a given device tree node, including those nodes that are
marked as unavailable (i.e. status = "disabled").

Introduce for_each_available_child_of_node(), which is like
for_each_child_of_node(), but it automatically skips unavailable nodes.
This also requires the introduction of helper function
of_get_next_available_child(), which returns the next available child
node.

Pull networking changes from David S Miller:

 1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache.  Now lookups go directly into the FIB
    trie and use prebuilt routes cached there.

    No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing
    cache.  Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance,
    no matter what the pattern of traffic we service.

    This has been almost 2 years in the making.  Special thanks to
    Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who
    have helped along the way.

    I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some
    kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this
    point.  Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to
    fix things :-)

    The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced
    merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description
    of the motivations and implementation issues.

 2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on
    input.

 3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao
    Feng.

 5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from
    Yuval Mintz.

 6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo
    Neira Ayuso.

 8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver,
    from Jiri Pirko.

 9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with
    embedded gotos.

10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued
    up in the packet scheduler layer.  Whereas the existing BQL (Byte
    Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --&gt; netdevice queuing levels,
    this controls the TCP --&gt; pkt_sched queueing levels.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments,
    from Alexander Duyck.

12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from
    Eric Dumazet.

13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to
    send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng.

    Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using
    MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up
    fastopen data.

14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events
    hit a locked socket.  The TCP Small Queues changes added a
    tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the
    release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too.  From Eric
    Dumazet.

15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S. Tsirkin.

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "Notable highlights:

   - iommu improvements from Anton removing the per-iommu global lock in
     favor of dividing the DMA space into pools, each with its own lock,
     and hashed on the CPU number.  Along with making the locking more
     fine grained, this gives significant improvements in multiqueue
     networking scalability.

   - Still from Anton, we know provide a vdso based variant of getcpu
     which makes sched_getcpu with the appropriate glibc patch something
     like 18 times faster.

   - More anton goodness (he's been busy !) in other areas such as a
     faster __clear_user and copy_page on P7, various perf fixes to
     improve sampling quality, etc...

   - One more step toward removing legacy i2c interfaces by using new
     device-tree based probing of platform devices for the AOA audio
     drivers

   - A nice series of patches from Michael Neuling that helps avoiding
     confusion between register numbers and litterals in assembly code,
     trying to enforce the use of "%rN" register names in gas rather
     than plain numbers.

   - A pile of FSL updates

   - The usual bunch of small fixes, cleanups etc...

  You may spot a change to drivers/char/mem.  The patch got no comment
  or ack from outside, it's a trivial patch to allow the architecture to
  skip creating /dev/port, which we use to disable it on ppc64 that
  don't have a legacy brige.  On those, IO ports 0...64K are not mapped
  in kernel space at all, so accesses to /dev/port cause oopses (and
  yes, distros -still- ship userspace that bangs hard coded ports such
  as kbdrate)."

prom_update_property() currently fails if the property doesn't
actually exist yet which isn't what we want. Change to add-or-update
instead of update-only, then we can remove a lot duplicated lines.

This reverts commit 107a84e61cdd3406c842a0e4be7efffd3a05dba6.

Meelis Roos reports a regression since 3.5-rc5 that stops Sun Fire V100
and Sun Netra X1 sparc64 machines from booting, hanging after enabling
serial console.  He bisected it to commit 107a84e61cdd.

Rob Herring explains:
 "The problem is match combinations of compatible plus name and/or type
  fail to match correctly.  I have a fix for this, but given how late it
  is for 3.5 I think it is best to revert this for now.  There could be
  other cases that rely on the current although wrong behavior.  I will
  post an updated version for 3.6."

This patch does the following:
 -const int of_get_nand_ecc_mode(struct device_node *np)
 +int of_get_nand_ecc_mode(struct device_node *np)

because:
1. it is probably just a typo?
2. it causes warnings like this when people assing the returned
   value to an 'int' variable:
   include/linux/of_mtd.h:14:18: warning: type qualifiers ignored on functi=
on return type [-Wignored-qualifiers]

Remove also the unnecessary "extern" qualifier to be consistent with other
declarations in this file.

Sometimes it doesn't make any sense for a node to have an address.
In this case device lookup will always be unsuccessful because we
currently assume every node will have a reg property. This patch
changes the semantics so that the resource address and the lookup
address will only be compared if one exists.

Things like AUXDATA() rely on of_dev_lookup to return the lookup
entry of a particular device in order to do things like apply
platform_data to a device. However, this is currently broken for
nodes which do not have a reg property, meaning that platform_data
can not be passed in those cases.
