myri_sbus: remove driver
Remove the myri_sbus driver. Why?
* There is no possibility of ethernet mode on this adapter, so it's
Myrinet only.
* It won't inter-op with modern versions of Myrinet, and thus can only
work with legacy adapters.
* There are no in-kernel Linux drivers for the PCI version of this
adapter, so it only can work on ~15 year old Sun hardware.
It's long in the tooth, let's take it to the knackers.

- Objects functionality is based on the private function pointers, which

preserving the same interface towards the driver.
- Objects interface is not influenced by the HSI changes which do not require

SNMP mibs use two percpu arrays, one used in BH context, another in USER

commit be281e554e2a (ipv6: reduce per device ICMP mib sizes) shrinked

need this BH/USER separation since we can update counters in a single
x86 instruction, regardless of the BH/USER context.
Other arches than x86 might need to disable irq in their
irqsafe_cpu_inc() implementation : If this happens to be a problem, we
can make SNMP_ARRAY_SZ arch dependent, but a previous poll
( https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/17/174 ) to arch maintainers did not
raise strong opposition.
Only on 32bit arches, we need to disable BH for 64bit counters updates
done from USER context (currently used for IP MIB)

bonding: clean up bond_del_vlan()
1) the setting of NETIF_F_VLAN_CHALLENGED in bond_del_vlan() is
useless since commit b2a103e6 because bond_fix_features() now
sets NETIF_F_VLAN_CHALLENGED whenever the last slave is being
removed.
2) the code never triggers anyway as vlan_list is never empty
since ad1afb00.

virtio_net: introduce VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID
There's no need for the guest to validate the checksum if it have been
validated by host nics. So this patch introduces a new flag -
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID which is used to bypass the checksum
examing in guest. The backend (tap/macvtap) may set this flag when
met skbs with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to save cpu utilization.
No feature negotiation is needed as old driver just ignore this flag.
Iperf shows 12%-30% performance improvement for UDP traffic. For TCP,
when gro is on no difference as it produces skb with partial
checksum. But when gro is disabled, 20% or even higher improvement
could be measured by netperf.

net: DM9000: Add support for byte EEPROM access
Given many versions of ethtool's reluctance to do anything other than
byte accesses to the EEPROM interface, it is easier to update the driver
to support byte accesses so that all the ethtool versions that have been
observed in Debian can write the EEPROM.

rtnetlink: Compute and store minimum ifinfo dump size
The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to
a single page. This is not enough for additional interface info
available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in
which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately
40 VFs were created per interface.
Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will
calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate
enough data to satisfy the request.
