Remove redundant netif_napi_del() call from disconnect path.
A WARN may be triggered in __netif_napi_del_locked() during USB device
disconnect:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 11 at net/core/dev.c:7417 __netif_napi_del_locked+0x2b4/0x350
This happens because netif_napi_del() is called in the disconnect path while
NAPI is still enabled. However, it is not necessary to call netif_napi_del()
explicitly, since unregister_netdev() will handle NAPI teardown automatically
and safely. Removing the redundant call avoids triggering the warning.

Do not configure Latency Tolerance Messaging (LTM) on USB 2.0 hardware.
The LAN7850 is a High-Speed (USB 2.0) only device and does not support
SuperSpeed features like LTM. Currently, the driver unconditionally
attempts to configure LTM registers during initialization. On the
LAN7850, these registers do not exist, resulting in writes to invalid
or undocumented memory space.
This issue was identified during a port to the regmap API with strict
register validation enabled. While no functional issues or crashes have
been observed from these invalid writes, bypassing LTM initialization
on the LAN7850 ensures the driver strictly adheres to the hardware's
valid register map.

Account for hardware auto-padding in TX byte counters to reflect actual
wire traffic.
The LAN7850 hardware automatically pads undersized frames to the minimum
Ethernet frame length (ETH_ZLEN, 60 bytes). However, the driver tracks
the network statistics based on the unpadded socket buffer length. This
results in the tx_bytes counter under-reporting the actual physical
bytes placed on the Ethernet wire for small packets (like short ARP or
ICMP requests).
Use max_t() to ensure the transmission statistics accurately account for
the hardware-generated padding.

Do not drop packets with checksum errors at the USB driver level;
pass them to the network stack.
Previously, the driver dropped all packets where the 'Receive Error
Detected' (RED) bit was set, regardless of the specific error type. This
caused packets with only IP or TCP/UDP checksum errors to be dropped
before reaching the kernel, preventing the network stack from accounting
for them or performing software fallback.
Add a mask for hard hardware errors to safely drop genuinely corrupt
frames, while allowing checksum-errored frames to pass with their
ip_summed field explicitly set to CHECKSUM_NONE.

Commit c7159e960f14 ("usbnet: limit max_mtu based on device's hard_mtu")
capped net->max_mtu to the device's hard_mtu in usbnet_probe(). While
this correctly prevents oversized packets on standard USB network
devices, it breaks the qmi_wwan driver.
qmi_wwan relies on userspace (e.g. ModemManager) setting a large MTU on
the wwan0 interface to configure rx_urb_size via usbnet_change_mtu().
QMI modems negotiate USB transfer sizes of 16,383 or 32,767 bytes, and
the USB receive buffers must be sized accordingly. With max_mtu capped
to hard_mtu (~1500 bytes), userspace can no longer raise the MTU, the
receive buffers remain small, and download speeds drop from >300 Mbps
to ~0.8 Mbps.
Introduce a FLAG_NOMAXMTU driver flag that allows individual usbnet
drivers to opt out of the max_mtu cap. Set this flag in qmi_wwan's
driver_info structures to restore the previous behavior for QMI devices,
while keeping the safety fix in place for all other usbnet drivers.

pegasus_probe() fills URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without
verifying the endpoint descriptors:
- usb_rcvbulkpipe(dev, 1) for RX data
- usb_sndbulkpipe(dev, 2) for TX data
- usb_rcvintpipe(dev, 3) for status interrupts
A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types
that differ from what the driver assumes.
Add a pegasus_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic
constants throughout. Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and
usb_check_int_endpoints() calls before any resource allocation to
verify endpoint types before use, rejecting devices with mismatched
descriptors at probe time, and avoid triggering assertion.
Similar fix to
- commit 90b7f2961798 ("net: usb: rtl8150: enable basic endpoint checking")
- commit 9e7021d2aeae ("net: usb: catc: enable basic endpoint checking")

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

The LAN7801 is designed exclusively for external PHYs (unlike the
LAN7800/LAN7850 which have internal PHYs), but lan78xx_mdio_init()
restricts PHY scanning to MDIO addresses 0-7 by setting phy_mask to
~(0xFF). This prevents discovery of external PHYs wired to addresses
outside that range.
One such case is the DP83TC814 100BASE-T1 PHY, which is typically
configured at MDIO address 10 via PHYAD bootstrap pins and goes
undetected with the current mask.
Remove the restrictive phy_mask assignment for the LAN7801 so that the
default mask of 0 applies, allowing all 32 MDIO addresses to be
scanned during bus registration.

kaweth_set_rx_mode(), the ndo_set_rx_mode callback, calls
netif_stop_queue() and netif_wake_queue(). These are TX queue flow
control functions unrelated to RX multicast configuration.
The premature netif_wake_queue() can re-enable TX while tx_urb is still
in-flight, leading to a double usb_submit_urb() on the same URB:
kaweth_start_xmit() {
netif_stop_queue();
usb_submit_urb(kaweth->tx_urb);
}
kaweth_set_rx_mode() {
netif_stop_queue();
netif_wake_queue(); // wakes TX queue before URB is done
}
kaweth_start_xmit() {
netif_stop_queue();
usb_submit_urb(kaweth->tx_urb); // URB submitted while active
}
This triggers the WARN in usb_submit_urb():
"URB submitted while active"
This is a similar class of bug fixed in rtl8150 by
- commit 958baf5eaee3 ("net: usb: Remove disruptive netif_wake_queue in rtl8150_set_multicast").
Also kaweth_set_rx_mode() is already functionally broken, the
real set_rx_mode action is performed by kaweth_async_set_rx_mode(),
which in turn is not a no-op only at ndo_open() time.

Several registers referenced in this driver's source code do not
actually exist (they are not writable and read as zero in my testing).
They exist in this driver because it originated as a copy of the dm9601
driver. Notably, these include the multicast filter registers - this
causes the driver to not support multicast packets correctly. Remove
the multicast filter code and register definitions. Instead, set the
chip to receive all multicast filter packets when any multicast
addresses are in the list.

Many USB network drivers define get_drvinfo functions which add no
value over usbnet_get_drvinfo, only setting the driver name and
version. usbnet_get_drvinfo automatically sets the driver name, and
separate driver versions are now frowned upon in the kernel. Remove all
driver versions and replace these get_drvinfo functions with references
to usbnet_get_drvinfo where possible. Where that is not possible,
remove unnecessary code to set the driver name. Also remove two
unnecessary initializations from aqc111_get_drvinfo, an inaccurate

The usbnet driver initializes net->max_mtu to ETH_MAX_MTU before calling
the device's bind() callback. When the bind() callback sets
dev->hard_mtu based the device's actual capability (from CDC Ethernet's
wMaxSegmentSize descriptor), max_mtu is never updated to reflect this
hardware limitation).
This allows userspace (DHCP or IPv6 RA) to configure MTU larger than the
device can handle, leading to silent packet drops when the backend sends
packet exceeding the device's buffer size.
Fix this by limiting net->max_mtu to the device's hard_mtu after the
bind callback returns.

This device does not have a MII, even though the driver

operation (the DM9601 registers to set the speed/duplex mode
are read-only). Remove all MII-related code and implement

The SR9700 chip sends more than one packet in a USB transaction,
like the DM962x chips can optionally do, but the dm9601 driver does not
support this mode, and the hardware does not have the DM962x
MODE_CTL register to disable it, so this driver drops packets on SR9700
devices. The sr9700 driver correctly handles receiving more than one
packet per transaction.
While the dm9601 driver could be improved to handle this, the easiest
way to fix this issue in the short term is to remove the SR9700 device
ID from the dm9601 driver so the sr9700 driver is always used. This
device ID should not have been in more than one driver to begin with.
The "Fixes" commit was chosen so that the patch is automatically
included in all kernels that have the sr9700 driver, even though the
issue affects dm9601.

In commit 7ff14c52049e ("usbnet: Add support for Byte Queue Limits
(BQL)"), it was missed that usbnet_resume() may enqueue SKBs using
__skb_queue_tail() without reporting them to BQL. As a result, the next
call to netdev_completed_queue() triggers a BUG_ON() in dql_completed(),
since the SKBs queued during resume were never accounted for.
This patch fixes the issue by adding a corresponding netdev_sent_queue()
call in usbnet_resume() when SKBs are queued after suspend. Because
dev->txq.lock is held at this point, no concurrent calls to
netdev_sent_queue() from usbnet_start_xmit() can occur.
The crash can be reproduced by generating network traffic
(e.g. iperf3 -c ... -t 0), suspending the system, and then waking it up
(e.g. rtcwake -m mem -s 5).
When testing USB2 Android tethering (cdc_ncm), the system crashed within
three suspend/resume cycles without this patch. With the patch applied,
no crashes were observed after 90 cycles. Testing with an AX88179 USB
Ethernet adapter also showed no crashes.

In async_set_registers(), when usb_submit_urb() fails, the allocated
async_req structure and URB are not freed, causing a memory leak.
The completion callback async_set_reg_cb() is responsible for freeing
these allocations, but it is only called after the URB is successfully
submitted and completes (successfully or with error). If submission
fails, the callback never runs and the memory is leaked.
Fix this by freeing both the URB and the request structure in the error
path when usb_submit_urb() fails.

In the current implementation, usbnet uses a fixed tx_qlen of:
USB2: 60 * 1518 bytes = 91.08 KB
USB3: 60 * 5 * 1518 bytes = 454.80 KB
Such large transmit queues can be problematic, especially for cellular
modems. For example, with a typical celluar link speed of 10 Mbit/s, a
fully occupied USB3 transmit queue results in:
454.80 KB / (10 Mbit/s / 8 bit/byte) = 363.84 ms
of additional latency.
This patch adds support for Byte Queue Limits (BQL) [1] to dynamically
manage the transmit queue size and reduce latency without sacrificing
throughput.
Testing was performed on various devices using the usbnet driver for
packet transmission:
- DELOCK 66045: USB3 to 2.5 GbE adapter (ax88179_178a)
- DELOCK 61969: USB2 to 1 GbE adapter (asix)
- Quectel RM520: 5G modem (qmi_wwan)
- USB2 Android tethering (cdc_ncm)
No performance degradation was observed for iperf3 TCP or UDP traffic,
while latency for a prioritized ping application was significantly
reduced. For example, using the USB3 to 2.5 GbE adapter, which was fully
utilized by iperf3 UDP traffic, the prioritized ping was improved from
1.6 ms to 0.6 ms. With the same setup but with a 100 Mbit/s Ethernet
connection, the prioritized ping was improved from 35 ms to 5 ms.

Raw IP packets have no MAC header, leaving skb->mac_header uninitialized.
This can trigger kernel panics on ARM64 when xfrm or other subsystems
access the offset due to strict alignment checks.
Initialize the MAC header to prevent such crashes.
This can trigger kernel panics on ARM when running IPsec over the
qmimux0 interface.

The code did not check the return value of usbnet_get_endpoints.
Add checks and return the error if it fails to transfer the error.
Found via static anlaysis and this is similar to
commit 07161b2416f7 ("sr9800: Add check for usbnet_get_endpoints").
