This flag is intended to indicate streaming errors, which might have
resulted in corrupted video data in the buffer, but the buffer can still
be reused and streaming may continue.
Setting this flag and returning 0 is different from returning EIO. The
latter should now indicate more serious (unrecoverable) errors.
This patch also solves a problem with the ioctl handling code in
vl42-ioctl.c, which does not copy buffer identification data back to the
userspace when EIO is returned, so there is no way for applications
to discover on which buffer the operation failed in such cases.

The enum fe_caps provides flags that allow an application to detect
whether a device is capable of handling various modulation types etc.
A flag for detecting PSK_8, however, is missing.
This patch adds the flag FE_CAN_PSK_8 to frontend.h and implements
it for the gp8psk-fe.c and cx24116.c driver (apparently the only ones
with PSK_8). Only the gp8psk-fe.c has been explicitly tested, though.

Instead of the host and guest independently enumerating ports, switch to
a control message to add ports where the host supplies the port number
so there's no ambiguity or a possibility of a race between the host and
the guest port numbers.
We now no longer need the 'nr_ports' config value. Since no kernel has
been released with the MULTIPORT changes yet, we have a chance to fiddle
with the config space without adding compatibility features.
This is beneficial for management software, which would now be able to
instantiate ports at known locations and avoid problems that arise with
implicit numbering in the host and the guest. This removes the 'guessing
game' part of it, and management software can now actually indicate
which id to spawn a particular port on.

Multiport support was disabled for 2.6.34 because we wanted to introduce

padata_get_next needs to check whether the next object that
need serialization must be parallel processed by the local cpu.
This check was wrong implemented and returned always true,
so the try_again loop in padata_reorder was never taken. This
can lead to object leaks in some rare cases due to a race that
appears with the trylock in padata_reorder. The try_again loop
was not a good idea after all, because a cpu could take that
loop frequently, so we handle this with a timer instead.
This patch adds a timer to handle the race that appears with
the trylock. If cpu1 queues an object to the reorder queue while
cpu2 holds the pd->lock but left the while loop in padata_reorder
already, cpu2 can't care for this object and cpu1 exits because
it can't get the lock. Usually the next cpu that takes the lock
cares for this object too. We need the timer just if this object
was the last one that arrives to the reorder queues. The timer
function sends it out in this case.

framebuffer. To do it hardware must be fully functional, so there's a short

two drivers touch the hardware. Unfortunately sometimes it breaks nouveau

Add new netdev ops ndo_{set|get}_vf_port to allow setting of
port-profile on a netdev interface. Extends netlink socket RTM_SETLINK/
RTM_GETLINK with two new sub msgs called IFLA_VF_PORTS and IFLA_PORT_SELF
(added to end of IFLA_cmd list). These are both nested atrtibutes
using this layout:
[IFLA_NUM_VF]
[IFLA_VF_PORTS]
[IFLA_VF_PORT]
[IFLA_PORT_*], ...
[IFLA_VF_PORT]
[IFLA_PORT_*], ...
...
[IFLA_PORT_SELF]
[IFLA_PORT_*], ...
These attributes are design to be set and get symmetrically. VF_PORTS
is a list of VF_PORTs, one for each VF, when dealing with an SR-IOV
device. PORT_SELF is for the PF of the SR-IOV device, in case it wants
to also have a port-profile, or for the case where the VF==PF, like in
enic patch 2/2 of this patch set.
A port-profile is used to configure/enable the external switch virtual port
backing the netdev interface, not to configure the host-facing side of the
netdev. A port-profile is an identifier known to the switch. How port-
profiles are installed on the switch or how available port-profiles are
made know to the host is outside the scope of this patch.
There are two types of port-profiles specs in the netlink msg. The first spec
is for 802.1Qbg (pre-)standard, VDP protocol. The second spec is for devices
that run a similar protocol as VDP but in firmware, thus hiding the protocol
details. In either case, the specs have much in common and makes sense to
define the netlink msg as the union of the two specs. For example, both specs
have a notition of associating/deassociating a port-profile. And both specs
require some information from the hypervisor manager, such as client port
instance ID.
The general flow is the port-profile is applied to a host netdev interface
using RTM_SETLINK, the receiver of the RTM_SETLINK msg communicates with the
switch, and the switch virtual port backing the host netdev interface is
configured/enabled based on the settings defined by the port-profile. What
