Using a period after a newline causes bad output.

<content type='text'>
There were quite a few overlapping sets of changes here.

Daniel's bug fix for off-by-ones in the new BPF branch instructions,
along with the added allowances for "data_end &gt; ptr + x" forms
collided with the metadata additions.

Along with those three changes came veritifer test cases, which in
their final form I tried to group together properly.  If I had just
trimmed GIT's conflict tags as-is, this would have split up the
meta tests unnecessarily.

In the socketmap code, a set of preemption disabling changes
overlapped with the rename of bpf_compute_data_end() to
bpf_compute_data_pointers().

Changes were made to the mv88e6060.c driver set addr method
which got removed in net-next.

The hyperv transport socket layer had a locking change in 'net'
which overlapped with a change of socket state macro usage
in 'net-next'.

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly.

<title>xen-netfront, xen-netback: Use correct minimum MTU values</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e1043a4bb9fce6cfc7d55c5767e429a18ac8c4eb</id>
<content type='text'>
RFC791 specifies the minimum MTU to be 68, while xen-net{front|back}
drivers use a minimum value of 0.

When set MTU to 0~67 with xen_net{front|back} driver, the network
will become unreachable immediately, the guest can no longer be pinged.

xen_net{front|back} should not allow the user to set this value which causes
network problems.

<title>xen-netback: update ubuf_info initialization to anonymous union</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cc8737a5fe9051b7fa052b08c57ddb9f539c389a</id>
<content type='text'>
The xen driver initializes struct ubuf_info fields using designated
initializers. I recently moved these fields inside a nested anonymous
struct inside an anonymous union. I had missed this use case.

This breaks compilation of xen-netback with older compilers.
&gt;From kbuild bot with gcc-4.4.7:

   drivers/net//xen-netback/interface.c: In function
   'xenvif_init_queue':
   &gt;&gt; drivers/net//xen-netback/interface.c:554: error: unknown field 'ctx' specified in initializer
   &gt;&gt; drivers/net//xen-netback/interface.c:554: warning: missing braces around initializer
      drivers/net//xen-netback/interface.c:554: warning: (near initialization for '(anonymous).&lt;anonymous&gt;')
   &gt;&gt; drivers/net//xen-netback/interface.c:554: warning: initialization makes integer from pointer without a cast
   &gt;&gt; drivers/net//xen-netback/interface.c:555: error: unknown field 'desc' specified in initializer

Add double braces around the designated initializers to match their
nested position in the struct. After this, compilation succeeds again.

Fixes: 4ab6c99d99bb ("sock: MSG_ZEROCOPY notification coalescing")

<title>xen-netback: correctly schedule rate-limited queues</title>

<content type='text'>
Add a flag to indicate if a queue is rate-limited. Test the flag in
NAPI poll handler and avoid rescheduling the queue if true, otherwise
we risk locking up the host. The rescheduling will be done in the
timer callback function.

In some cases during XenBus disconnect event handling and subsequent
queue resource release there may be some TX handlers active on
other processors. Use RCU in order to synchronize with them.
