commit ddd9b5e3e765d8ed5a35786a6cb00111713fe161 upstream.

Dev_hold has to be called always in rx_queue_add_kobject.
Otherwise usage count drops below 0 in case of failure in
kobject_init_and_add.

commit b8eb718348b8fb30b5a7d0a8fce26fb3f4ac741b upstream.

kobject_init_and_add takes reference even when it fails. This has
to be given up by the caller in error handling. Otherwise memory
allocated by kobject_init_and_add is never freed. Originally found
by Syzkaller:

commit a3e23f719f5c4a38ffb3d30c8d7632a4ed8ccd9e upstream.

In netdev_queue_add_kobject and rx_queue_add_kobject,
if sysfs_create_group failed, kobject_put will call
netdev_queue_release to decrease dev refcont, however
dev_hold has not be called. So we will see this while
unregistering dev:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for bcsh0 to become free. Usage count = -1

It should call kset_unregister to free 'dev-&gt;queues_kset'
in error path of register_queue_kobjects, otherwise will cause a mem leak.

If kobject_init_and_add failed, then the failure path would
decrement the reference count of the queue kobject whose reference
count was already zero.

This allows to monitor carrier on/off transitions and detect link
flapping issues:
 - new /sys/class/net/X/carrier_changes
 - new rtnetlink IFLA_CARRIER_CHANGES (getlink)

Tested:
  - grep . /sys/class/net/*/carrier_changes
    + ip link set dev X down/up
    + plug/unplug cable
  - updated iproute2: prints IFLA_CARRIER_CHANGES
  - iproute2 20121211-2 (debian): unchanged behavior

devices that have multiple ports on the same PCI function.
