Veth stands for Virtual ETHernet. It is a simple tunnel driver
that works at the link layer and looks like a pair of ethernet
devices interconnected with each other.
Mainly it allows to communicate between network namespaces but
it can be used as is as well.
The newlink callback is organized that way to make it easy to
create the peer device in the separate namespace when we have
them in kernel.
This implementation uses another interface - the RTM_NRELINK
message introduced by Patric.

Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.
In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.
The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:
int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
to
int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.
The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.
Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.
With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Similarly to CTS protection, whether short preambles are used for 802.11b
transmissions should be a per-subif setting, not device global.
For STAs, this patch makes short preamble handling automatic based on the ERP
IE. For APs, hostapd still uses the prism ioctls, but the write ioctl has been
restricted to AP-only subifs.
ieee80211_txrx_data.short_preamble (an unused field) was removed.
Unfortunately, some API changes were required for the following functions:
- ieee80211_generic_frame_duration
- ieee80211_rts_duration
- ieee80211_ctstoself_duration
- ieee80211_rts_get
- ieee80211_ctstoself_get
Affected drivers were updated accordingly.

The Yukon FE+ chip appears to have a hardware glitch that causes bogus
receive status values to be posted. The data in the packet is good, but
the status value is random garbage. As a temporary workaround until the
problem is better understood, implement the workaround the vendor driver
used of ignoring the status value on this chip.
Since this means trusting dodgy hardware values; add additional checking
of the receive packet length.

This patch makes pppol2tp_xmit call skb_cow_head so that we don't modify
cloned skb data. It also gets rid of skb2 we only need to preserve the
original skb for congestion notification, which is only applicable for
ppp_async and ppp_sync.
The other semantic change made here is the removal of socket accounting
for data tranmitted out of pppol2tp_xmit. The original code leaked any
existing socket skb accounting. We could fix this by dropping the
original skb owner. However, this is undesirable as the packet has not
physically left the host yet.
In fact, all other tunnels in the kernel do not account skb's passing
through to their own socket. In partciular, ESP over UDP does not do
so and it is the closest tunnel type to PPPoL2TP. So this patch simply
removes the socket accounting in pppol2tp_xmit. The accounting still
applies to control packets of course.
I've also added a reminder that the outgoing checksum here doesn't work.
I suppose existing deployments don't actually enable checksums.

The 8168 ignores the requests to fetch the Tx descriptors when
the relevant TxPoll bit is already set. It easily kills the
performances of the 8168. David Gundersen has noticed that it
is enough to wait for the completion of the DMA transfer (NPQ
bit is cleared) before writing the TxPoll register again.
The extra IO traffic added by the proposed workaround could be
minimalized but it is not a high-priority task.

The function __pppoe_xmit modifies the skb data and therefore it needs
to copy and skb data if it's cloned.
In fact, it currently allocates a new skb so that it can return 0 in
case of error without freeing the original skb. This is totally wrong
because returning zero is meant to indicate congestion whereupon pppoe
is supposed to wake up the upper layer once the congestion subsides.
This makes sense for ppp_async and ppp_sync but is out-of-place for
pppoe. This patch makes it always return 1 and free the skb.
