This allows workqueue users to run just their own pending work, rather
than wait for the whole workqueue to finish running. This solves the
deadlock with networking libphy that was due to other workqueue entries
possibly needing a lock that was held by the routine that wanted to
flush its own work.
It's not wonderful: if you absolutely need to synchronize with the work
function having been executed, any user strictly speaking should have
its own completion tracking logic, since when we run things explicitly
by hand, the generic workqueue layer can no longer help us synchronize.
Also, this is strictly only usable for work that has been scheduled
without any delayed timers. You can not mix the new interface with
schedule_delayed_work().
But it's better than what we had currently.

Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()
dma_cache_sync() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct device
pointer argument which makes proper support for systems that consist of a
mix of coherent and non-coherent DMA devices hard. Change dma_cache_sync
to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix all its callers
to pass it.

This patch makes the receive performance on some systems go from
714MB/s to 941MB/s. It adjusts the watermark of the receive queue
to be lower, thereby avoiding excess hardware flow control. This is
most important on the systems which have little/no additional buffering.

Different chips have different sizes of ram buffers, and some versions have
no ram buffer at all!. Be more careful about sizing the ram usage because
it maybe a problem if vendor keeps changing sizes.
There is the (unlikely) possibility that some of the errors on some of the
chips have been caused by partitioning not on a 1K boundary.

Create a paravirt.h header for all the critical operations which need to be
replaced with hypervisor calls, and include that instead of defining native
operations, when CONFIG_PARAVIRT.
This patch does the dumbest possible replacement of paravirtualized
instructions: calls through a "paravirt_ops" structure. Currently these are
function implementations of native hardware: hypervisors will override the ops
structure with their own variants.
All the pv-ops functions are declared "fastcall" so that a specific
register-based ABI is used, to make inlining assember easier.
And:
+From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org>
The paravirt ops introduce a 'weak' attribute onto memory_setup().
Code ordering leads to the following warnings on x86:
arch/i386/kernel/setup.c:651: warning: weak declaration of
`memory_setup' after first use results in unspecified behavior
Move memory_setup() to avoid this.

The ipw2200 BSS firmware passes on the TSF information within ipw_rx_frame,
but monitor firmware doesn't. I add back the IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_TSFT flags
so that we can get the MAC timestamp if we use the rtap interface. We will
see the MAC timestamp equals to zero if we capture the packets with a
monitor mode interface. But this is the expected behaviour.

ip_summed changes last summer had missed that one. As the result,
we have ip_summed interpreted as CHECKSUM_PARTIAL now. IOW,
->csum is interpreted as offset of checksum in the packet. net/core/*
will both read and modify the value as that offset, with obvious
reasons. At the very least it's a remote memory corruptor.
