hostap_pci and hostap_plx drivers still use PCI driver names
"prism2_pci" and "prism2_plx" respectively. This is unfriendly to
linux-wlan-ng, which uses the same names. So, if e.g. hostap_pci and
prism2_pci are loaded, they will "share" /sys/bus/pci/drivers/prism2_plx
directory.
Change PCI driver names of hostap_pci and hostap_plx to be equal to
their module names.

Current kernel has a couple of sneaky bugs in the ppc64 hugetlb code that
cause huge pages to be potentially left stale in the hash table and TLBs
(improperly invalidated), with all the nasty consequences that can have.
One is that we forgot to set the "secondary" bit in the hash PTEs when
hashing a huge page in the secondary bucket (fortunately very rare).
The other one is on non-LPAR machines (like Apple G5s), flush_hash_range()
which is used to flush a batch of PTEs simply did not work for huge pages.
Historically, our huge page code didn't batch, but this was changed without
fixing this routine. This patch fixes both.

properly kill a process under just the right cicumstances: a stopped

Address space resources for ACPI devices have a producer/consumer
flag. All devices "consume" the indicated address space. If the
resource is marked as a "producer", the range is also passed on
to child devices.
We currently ignore this flag when setting up MMIO and I/O port
windows for PCI root bridges, so we could mistakenly interpret
a "consumed-only" range, like CSR space for the device itself,
as a window that is routed to children.

Currently rpc_mkdir/rpc_rmdir and rpc_mkpipe/mk_unlink have an API that's
a little unfortunate. They take a path relative to the rpc_pipefs root and
thus need to perform a full lookup. If you look at debugfs or usbfs they
always store the dentry for directories they created and thus can pass in
a dentry + single pathname component pair into their equivalents of the
above functions.
And in fact rpc_pipefs actually stores a dentry for all but one component so
this change not only simplifies the core rpc_pipe code but also the callers.
Unfortuntately this code path is only used by the NFS4 idmapper and
AUTH_GSSAPI for which I don't have a test enviroment. Could someone give
it a spin? It's the last bit needed before we can rework the
lookup_hash API

Implement a best practice: if the remote end drops our connection, try to
reconnect using the same port number. This is important because the NFS
server's Duplicate Reply Cache often hashes on the source port number.
If the client reuses the port number when it reconnects, the server's DRC
will be more effective.

The next several patches introduce an API that allows transports to
choose whether the RPC client provides congestion control or whether
the transport itself provides it.
The first method we abstract is the one that serializes access to the
RPC transport to prevent the bytes from different requests from mingling
together. This method provides proper request serialization and the
opportunity to prevent new requests from being started because the
transport is congested.
The normal situation is for the transport to handle congestion control
itself. Although NFS over UDP was first, it has been recognized after
years of experience that having the transport provide congestion control
is much better than doing it in the RPC client. Thus TCP, and probably
every future transport implementation, will use the default method,
xprt_lock_write, provided in xprt.c, which does not provide any kind
of congestion control. UDP can continue using the xprt.c-provided
Van Jacobson congestion avoidance implementation.
