Modify acpi_bus_type so that it executes PM callbacks provided
by drivers through their struct dev_pm_ops objects, if present,
while still allowing the legacy ACPI PM callbacks to take precedence.
This will make it possible to convert ACPI drivers one by one to
handling PM through struct dev_pm_ops instead of the legacy way.
The code added by this change is temporary and will be removed
when all of the drivers in question have been switched over to
the PM handling based on struct dev_pm_ops.

None of the drivers implementing the ACPI device suspend callback
uses the pm_message_t argument of it, so this argument may be dropped
entirely from that callback. This will simplify switching the ACPI
bus type to PM handling based on struct dev_pm_ops.

This patch adds the support for the Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
to the Physical Abstraction Layer.
To support the EEE we have to access to the MMD registers 3.20 and
7.60/61. So two new functions have been added to read/write the MMD
registers (clause 45).
An Ethernet driver (I tested the stmmac) can invoke the phy_init_eee to properly
check if the EEE is supported by the PHYs and it can also set the clock
stop enable bit in the 3.0 register.
The phy_get_eee_err can be used for reporting the number of time where
the PHY failed to complete its normal wake sequence.
In the end, this patch also adds the EEE ethtool support implementing:
o phy_ethtool_set_eee
o phy_ethtool_get_eee
v1: initial patch
v2: fixed some errors especially on naming convention
v3: renamed again the mmd read/write functions thank to Ben's feedback
v4: moved file to phy.c and added the ethtool support.
v5: fixed phy_adv_to_eee, phy_eee_to_supported, phy_eee_to_adv return
values according to ethtool API (thanks to Ben's feedback).
Renamed some macros to avoid too long names.
v6: fixed kernel-doc comments to be properly parsed.
Fixed the phy_init_eee function: we need to check which link mode
was autonegotiated and then the corresponding bits in 7.60 and 7.61
registers.
v7: reviewed the way to get the negotiated settings.
v8: fixed a problem in the phy_init_eee return value erroneously added
when included the phy_read_status call.
v9: do not remove the MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV_100TX and MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV_1000T
and fixed the eee_{cap,lp,adv} declaration as "int" instead of u16.

This patch adds the Energy Efficient Ethernet support to the stmmac.
Please see the driver's documentation for further details about this support
in the driver.
Thanks also goes to Rayagond Kokatanur for his first implementation.
Note:
to clearly manage and expose the lpi interrupt status and eee ethtool
stats I've had to do some modifications to the driver's design and I
found really useful to move other parts of the code (e.g. mmc irq stat)
in the main directly. So this means that some core has been reworked
to introduce the EEE.
v1: initial patch
v2: fixed some sparse issues (typos)
v3: erroneously sent the v2 renamed as v3
v4:
o Fixed the return value of the stmmac_eee_init as suggested by D.Miller
o Totally reviewed the ethtool support for EEE
o Added a new internal parameter to tune the SW timer for TX LPI.
v5: do not change any eee setting in case of the stmmac_ethtool_op_set_eee fails
(it has to return -EOPNOTSUPP in that case).

Currently only used when packet split mode is enabled with jumbo frames,
IP payload checksum (for fragmented UDP packets) is mutually exclusive with
receive hashing offload since the hardware uses the same space in the
receive descriptor for the hardware-provided packet checksum and the RSS
hash, respectively. Users currently must disable jumbos when receive
hashing offload is enabled, or vice versa, because of this incompatibility.
Since testing has shown that IP payload checksum does not provide any real
benefit, just remove it so that there is no longer a choice between jumbos
or receive hashing offload but not both as done in other Intel GbE drivers
(e.g. e1000, igb).
Also, add a missing check for IP checksum error reported by the hardware;
let the stack verify the checksum when this happens.

Basic suspend/resume is fixed by ensuring that the PGSR registers are
set correctly before sleep mode is entered. In particular four of the
active low resets need to be driven high while in sleep mode, otherwise
the unit resets itself instead of suspending. Another problem was that
the PCFR_GPROD bit is set by the HTC bootloader; this caused GPIO reset
(i.e. the reset button) to fail immediately after returning from sleep
mode.

It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that
we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't
a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC
2960:
An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK,
etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it
received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This
rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks
together with the reply chunk.
This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations
to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward
since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound
saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings
us into stricter compliance with the RFC.
Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the
transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was
concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had
received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the
RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle
the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state
variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the
last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to
our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to
enable/disable it.

Currently ext4_mb_load_buddy is called for every group, irrespective
of whether the group info is already in memory, while reading
/proc/fs/ext4/<partition>/mb_groups proc file. For the purpose of
mb_groups proc file, it is unnecessary to load the file group info
from disk if it was loaded in past. These calls to ext4_mb_load_buddy
make reading the mb_groups proc file expensive.
Also, the locks around ext4_get_group_info are not required.
This patch modifies the code to call ext4_mb_load_buddy only if the
group info had never been loaded into memory in past. It also removes
