Thanks guys, here an updated version then, before linkwatch surgery ?

In this version, I force the event to be sent synchronously.

[PATCH net-next-2.6] linkwatch: linkwatch_forget_dev() to speedup device dismantle

time ip link del eth3.103 ; time ip link del eth3.104 ; time ip link del eth3.105

real	0m0.266s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.001s

real	0m0.770s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.000s

real	0m1.022s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.000s

One problem of current schem in vlan dismantle phase is the
holding of device done by following chain :

vlan_dev_stop() ->
	netif_carrier_off(dev) ->
		linkwatch_fire_event(dev) ->
			dev_hold() ...

And __linkwatch_run_queue() runs up to one second later...

A generic fix to this problem is to add a linkwatch_forget_dev() method
to unlink the device from the list of watched devices.

dev->link_watch_next becomes dev->link_watch_list (and use a bit more memory),
to be able to unlink device in O(1).

After patch :
time ip link del eth3.103 ; time ip link del eth3.104 ; time ip link del eth3.105

real    0m0.024s
user    0m0.000s

With multi queue devices, its possible that several cpus call
macvlan RX routines simultaneously for the same macvlan device.

We update RX stats counter without any locking, so we can
get slightly wrong counters.

One possible fix is to use percpu counters, to get precise
accounting and also get guarantee of no cache line ping pongs
between cpus.

Note: this adds 16 bytes (32 bytes on 64bit arches) of percpu

the driver can be built on big endian architectures now. Although vmxnet3
is not supported on VMs other than x86 architecture, all this code goes in
to ensure correctness. If the code is not dependent on x86, it should not
assume little endian architecture in any of its operations.

Ben McKeegan 82b3cc1a2f ppp: fix BUG on non-linear SKB (multilink receive)
PPP does not correctly call pskb_may_pull() on all necessary receive paths
before reading the PPP protocol, thus causing PPP to report seemingly
random 'unsupported protocols' and eventually trigger BUG_ON(skb->len <
skb->data_len) in skb_pull_rcsum() when receiving multilink protocol in
non-linear skbs.

ppp_receive_nonmp_frame() does not call pskb_may_pull() before reading the
protocol number.  For the non-mp receive path this is not a problem, as
this check is done in ppp_receive_frame().  For the mp receive path,
ppp_mp_reconstruct() usually copies the data into a new linear skb.
However, in the case where the frame is made up of a single mp fragment,
the mp header is pulled and the existing skb used.  This skb was then
passed to ppp_receive_nonmp_frame() without checking if the encapsulated
protocol header could safely be read.

error later, but the test for non-zero is wrong, because the err might

Jay Vosburgh 2d6682db11 bonding: fix 802.3ad standards compliance error
The language of 802.3ad 43.4.9 requires the "recordPDU" function
to, in part, compare the Partner parameter values in a received LACPDU
to the stored Actor values.  If those match, then the Partner's
synchronization state is set to true.

	The current 802.3ad implementation is performing these steps out
of order; first, the synchronization check is done, then the paramters are
checked to see if they match (the synch check being done against a match
check of a prior LACPDU).  This causes delays in establishing aggregators
in some circumstances.

	This patch modifies the 802.3ad code to call __choose_matched,
the function that does the "match" comparisions, as the first step of
__record_pdu, instead of immediately afterwards.  This new behavior is
in compliance with the language of the standard.

	Some additional commentary relating to code vs. standard is also
added.

	Reported by Martin Patterson <martin@gear6.com> who also supplied
the logic of the fix and verified the patch.

Sriram 5bfa2a17f2 TI Davinci EMAC : Fix Console Hang when bringing the interface down
In the NAPI poll function(emac_poll), check for netif_running()
is unnecassary. In addition to associated runtime overhead, it
also results in a continuous softirq loop when the interface is
brought down under heavy traffic(tested wit Traffic Generator).
Once the interface is disabled, the poll function always returns
zero(with the check for netif_running) and napi_complete() would
never get called resulting in softirq loop.

Sriram f88c5b9887 smsc911x: Fix Console Hang when bringing the interface down.
In the NAPI poll function, check for netif_running() is unnecassary.
In addition to associated runtime overhead, it also results in
continuous softirq loop when the interface is brought down under heavy
traffic(tested with Traffic Generator).Once the interface is disabled,
the poll function always returns zero(with the check for netif_running)
and napi_complete() would never get called resulting in softirq loop.
