cciss: fix scatter gather chain block dma direction kludge
The data direction for the chained block of scatter gather
elements should always be PCI_DMA_TODEVICE, but was mistakenly
set to the direction of the data transfer, then a kludge to
fix it was added, in which pci_dma_sync_single_for_device or
pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu was called. If the correct direction
is used in the first place, the kludge isn't needed.

cciss: simplify scatter gather code.
Instead of allocating an array of pointers to a structure
containing an SGDescriptor structure, and two other elements
that aren't really used, just allocate SGDescriptor structs.

CFQ currently applies the same logic of detecting seeky queues and
grouping them together for rotational disks as well as SSDs.
For SSDs, the time to complete a request doesn't depend on the
request location, but only on the size.
This patch therefore changes the criterion to group queues by
request size in case of SSDs, in order to achieve better fairness.

Current seeky detection is based on average seek lenght.
This is suboptimal, since the average will not distinguish between:
* a process doing medium sized seeks
* a process doing some sequential requests interleaved with larger seeks
and even a medium seek can take lot of time, if the requested sector
happens to be behind the disk head in the rotation (50% probability).
Therefore, we change the seeky queue detection to work as follows:
* each request can be classified as sequential if it is very close to
the current head position, i.e. it is likely in the disk cache (disks
usually read more data than requested, and put it in cache for
subsequent reads). Otherwise, the request is classified as seeky.
* an history window of the last 32 requests is kept, storing the
classification result.
* A queue is marked as seeky if more than 1/8 of the last 32 requests
were seeky.
This patch fixes a regression reported by Yanmin, on mmap 64k random
reads.

The bug is in virtio-pci: we use msix_vector as array index to get irq
entry, but some vqs do not have a dedicated vector so this causes an out
of bounds access. By chance, we seem to often get 0 value, which
results in this error.
Fix by verifying that vector is legal before using it as index.

This patch allows the user to control the hash elasticity/max
parameters. The elasticity setting does not take effect until
the next new multicast group is added. At which point it is
checked and if after rehashing it still can't be satisfied then
snooping will be disabled.
The max setting on the other hand takes effect immediately. It
must be a power of two and cannot be set to a value less than the
current number of multicast group entries. This is the only way
to shrink the multicast hash.

This patch allows the user to forcibly enable/disable ports as
having multicast routers attached. A port with a multicast router
will receive all multicast traffic.
The value 0 disables it completely. The default is 1 which lets
the system automatically detect the presence of routers (currently
this is limited to picking up queries), and 2 means that the port
will always receive all multicast traffic.

This patch adds code to perform selective multicast forwarding.
We forward multicast traffic to a set of ports plus all multicast
router ports. In order to avoid duplications among these two
sets of ports, we order all ports by the numeric value of their
pointers. The two lists are then walked in lock-step to eliminate
duplicates.

This patch adds the core functionality of IGMP snooping support
without actually hooking it up. So this patch should be a no-op
as far as the bridge's external behaviour is concerned.
All the new code and data is controlled by the Kconfig option
BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING. A run-time toggle is also available.
The multicast switching is done using an hash table that is
lockless on the read-side through RCU. On the write-side the
new multicast_lock is used for all operations. The hash table
supports dynamic growth/rehashing.
The hash table will be rehashed if any chain length exceeds a
preset limit. If rehashing does not reduce the maximum chain
length then snooping will be disabled.
These features may be added in future (in no particular order):
* IGMPv3 source support
* Non-querier router detection
* IPv6

this patch makes BR_INPUT_SKB_CB available on the xmit path so
that we could avoid passing the br pointer around for the purpose
of collecting device statistics.

When the packet is delivered to the local bridge device we may
end up cloning it unnecessarily if no bridge port can receive
the packet in br_flood.
This patch avoids this by moving the skb_clone into br_flood.

This patch allows tail-call on the call to br_pass_frame_up
in br_handle_frame_finish. This is now possible because of the
previous patch to call br_pass_frame_up last.

At the moment we deliver to the local bridge port via the function
br_pass_frame_up before all other ports. There is no requirement
for this.
For the purpose of IGMP snooping, it would be more convenient if
we did the local port last. Therefore this patch rearranges the
bridge input processing so that the local bridge port gets to see
the packet last (if at all).

The pointer data can point to the variable ctv.
Access to data happens when ctv is already out of scope.
