<title>net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdep</title>

<id>827da44c61419f29ae3be198c342e2147f1a10cb</id>
<content type='text'>
In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
must explicitly initialize any locks.

The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
the structure.

This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
this worth while.

Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
the seqcount lockdep enablement.

Feedback would be appreciated!

<title>bridge: pass correct vlan id to multicast code</title>

Currently multicast code attempts to extrace the vlan id from
the skb even when vlan filtering is disabled.  This can lead
to mdb entries being created with the wrong vlan id.
Pass the already extracted vlan id to the multicast
filtering code to make the correct id is used in
creation as well as lookup.

Conflicts:

	net/bridge/br_multicast.c
	net/ipv6/sit.c

The conflicts were minor:

1) sit.c changes overlap with change to ip_tunnel_xmit() signature.

2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using
   msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function
   with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters.

3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated
   and hooked up a dma_cfg based upon the presence of the pbl OF property,
   and another one handling store-and-forward DMA made.  The latter of
   which should not go into the new of_find_property() basic block.

<title>bridge: separate querier and query timer into IGMP/IPv4 and MLD/IPv6 ones</title>

Currently we would still potentially suffer multicast packet loss if there
is just either an IGMP or an MLD querier: For the former case, we would
possibly drop IPv6 multicast packets, for the latter IPv4 ones. This is
because we are currently assuming that if either an IGMP or MLD querier
is present that the other one is present, too.

This patch makes the behaviour and fix added in
"bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af3b04)
to also work if there is either just an IGMP or an MLD querier on the
link: It refines the deactivation of the snooping to be protocol
specific by using separate timers for the snooped IGMP and MLD queries
as well as separate timers for our internal IGMP and MLD queriers.

If there is no querier on a link then we won't get periodic reports and
therefore won't be able to learn about multicast listeners behind ports,
potentially leading to lost multicast packets, especially for multicast
listeners that joined before the creation of the bridge.

These lost multicast packets can appear since c5c23260594
("bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by default")
in particular.

With this patch we are flooding multicast packets if our querier is
disabled and if we didn't detect any other querier.

A grace period of the Maximum Response Delay of the querier is added to
give multicast responses enough time to arrive and to be learned from
before disabling the flooding behaviour again.

Add a flag to control flood of unicast traffic.  By default, flood is
on and the bridge will flood unicast traffic if it doesn't know
the destination.  When the flag is turned off, unicast traffic
without an FDB will not be forwarded to the specified port.
