[ Upstream commit 5fe02e046e6422c4adfdbc50206ec7186077da24 ]

It is not allowed to call kfree_skb() or consume_skb() from hardware
interrupt context or with hardware interrupts being disabled.

It should use dev_kfree_skb_irq() or dev_consume_skb_irq() instead.
The difference between them is free reason, dev_kfree_skb_irq() means
the SKB is dropped in error and dev_consume_skb_irq() means the SKB
is consumed in normal.

In this case, dev_kfree_skb() is called in bmac_tx_timeout() to drop
the SKB, when tx timeout, so replace it with dev_kfree_skb_irq().

<title>net: bmac: Fix read of MAC address from ROM</title>

[ Upstream commit ef01cee2ee1b369c57a936166483d40942bcc3e3 ]

In bmac_get_station_address, We're reading two bytes at a time from ROM,
but we do that six times, resulting in 12 bytes of read &amp; writes. This
means we will write off the end of the six-byte destination buffer.

This change fixes the for-loop to only read/write six bytes.

Based on a proposed fix from Finn Thain &lt;fthain@telegraphics.com.au&gt;.

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it.  And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.

However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next.  We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.

No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

<title>powerpc: Move Power Macintosh drivers to generic byteswappers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f5718726714cd6114876c4e3ca9b6992ab81176c</id>

ppc has special instruction forms to efficiently load and store values
in non-native endianness.  These can be accessed via the arch-specific
{ld,st}_le{16,32}() inlines in arch/powerpc/include/asm/swab.h.

However, gcc is perfectly capable of generating the byte-reversing
load/store instructions when using the normal, generic cpu_to_le*() and
le*_to_cpu() functions eaning the arch-specific functions don't have much
point.

Worse the "le" in the names of the arch specific functions is now
misleading, because they always generate byte-reversing forms, but some
ppc machines can now run a little-endian kernel.

To start getting rid of the arch-specific forms, this patch removes them
from all the old Power Macintosh drivers, replacing them with the
generic byteswappers.
