Add Micrel KSZ884X network driver for KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chips.

This is a new network driver for Micrel KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chips. The same driver can run both chips at the same time. It supports IPv4 TCP hardware checksumming and so can use scatter/gather transmission.
The KSZ8842 switch has 2 ports. Some users like to take direct control of those ports. So KSZ8842 has a multiple devices mode in which the driver creates another network device so that users can specify which port to send packets. This mode is enabled by passing the "multi_dev=1" parameter to the driver during loading.
The KSZ884X can receive huge frames with size up to 1916 bytes. To use this feature change the network device MTU from 1500 to 1898.
The KSZ884X driver has 3 packet receive processing functions for the normal mode, multiple devices mode, and huge frame mode. Those functions are identical except for more checking for the new features. In normal programming point of view the huge frame version is the one to use because it covers all the cases, but this is done for performance consideration because the target clients for the KSZ884X chips are embedded systems, which unlike desktop PC may not have powerful CPU.

A pointer to am79c961_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.
An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

When the fib size exceeds what can be dumped in a single skb, the
dump is suspended and resumed once the last skb has been received
by userspace. When the fib is changed while the dump is suspended,
the walker might contain stale pointers, causing a crash when the
dump is resumed.

For hardware with IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL the rate controller is not
initialized. However, calling functions such as ieee80211_beacon_get result
in the rate_control_get_rate function getting called, which is accessing
(in this case uninitialized) rate control structures unconditionally.
Fix by exiting the function before setting the rates for HW with
IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL set. The initialization of the ieee80211_tx_info
struct is intentionally still executed.

This fixes a problem in the DCCP getsockopt() API: currently there is no way
for a user to a priori know the number of built-in CCIDs, other than trying
DCCP_SOCKOPT_AVAILABLE_CCIDS in a loop, incrementing the option length until
EINVAL is no longer returned.
This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made
when the length is <= 0.
Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the
minimum array length remains 4, which is a reasonable default (only 3
CCIDs, CCID-2..4, are currently defined).

If we have a pinned inode it must have a log item attached to it.
Usually that log item will have ili_last_lsn already set, in which
case we only need to flush the log up to that LSN instead of doing a
full log force. This gives speedups of about 5% in some fsync heavy
workloads.

file_remove_suid already calls into ->setattr to clear the suid and

Currently we treat IGMPv3 reports as if it were an IGMPv2/v1 report.
This is broken as IGMPv3 reports are formatted differently. So we
end up suppressing a bogus multicast group (which should be harmless
as long as the leading reserved field is zero).
In fact, IGMPv3 does not allow membership report suppression so
we should simply ignore IGMPv3 membership reports as a host.
This patch does exactly that. I kept the case statement for it
so people won't accidentally add it back thinking that we overlooked
this case.

Adding support for setting the coverage class in some cases broke
association and data transfer, as it overwrote the initial ACK timeout
value from the initvals with a smaller value.
I don't know why the new value works in 5 GHz (matches the initval
there), but not in 2.4 GHz (initvals use 64us here), so until the
problem is fully understood, the value should be increased again.

performance events support in addition to the software events.
Note: only ARM Ltd ARM cores are supported.
This implementation also provides an ARM PMU abstraction layer to allow
