<content type='text'>
commit 2d6a0e9de03ee658a9adc3bfb2f0ca55dff1e478 upstream.

Allocating USB buffers on the stack is not portable, and no longer
works on x86_64 (with VMAP_STACK enabled as per default).

<title>USB: remove dbg() usage in USB networking drivers</title>

<content type='text'>
The dbg() USB macro is so old, it predates me.  The USB networking drivers are
the last hold-out using this macro, and we want to get rid of it, so replace
the usage of it with the proper netdev_dbg() or dev_dbg() (depending on the
context) calls.

Some places we end up using a local variable for the debug call, so also
convert the other existing dev_* calls to use it as well, to save tiny amounts
of code space.

<title>USB: Disable hub-initiated LPM for comms devices.</title>
<updated>2012-05-18T22:42:55Z</updated>
<author>

</author>
<published>2012-04-23T17:08:51Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=e1f12eb6ba6f1e74007eb01ed26fad7c5239d62b'/>
<id>urn:sha1:e1f12eb6ba6f1e74007eb01ed26fad7c5239d62b</id>
<content type='text'>
Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices.  Comms
devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power
state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished.
Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state,
using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their
data transfer.

If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable
hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus
as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of
receiving data.  Worse, some devices might blindly accept the
hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the
middle of receiving a transmission.

The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB
communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host.  In order to keep
the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the
same in Linux.

Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications
drivers.  I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that
implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

err() was a very old USB-specific macro that I thought had
gone away.  This patch removes it from being used in the
driver and uses dev_err() instead.

<title>USB: convert drivers/net/* to use module_usb_driver()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d632eb1bf22e11def74e4e53cc47d790fbdba105</id>
<content type='text'>
This converts the drivers in drivers/net/* to use the
module_usb_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.

Added bonus is that it removes some unneeded kernel log messages about
drivers loading and/or unloading.

catc_ctrl_run() calls usb_submit_urb() with GFP_KERNEL, while it is called from
catc_ctrl_async() and catc_ctrl_done() with catc-&gt;ctrl_lock spinlock held.

The patch replaces GFP_KERNEL with GFP_ATOMIC.

<title>ethtool: cosmetic: Use ethtool ethtool_cmd_speed API</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=707394972093e2056e1e8cc39be19cf9bcb3e7b3'/>
<id>urn:sha1:707394972093e2056e1e8cc39be19cf9bcb3e7b3</id>
<content type='text'>
This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the
ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed()
instead.

For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't
fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly
call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes
are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with
future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each
ethtool operation.

All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been
updated.

Tested: make allyesconfig on x86_64 + e1000e/bnx2x work
