e9401a2335 kernel: owl-loader for delayed Atheros ath9k fixup
Some devices (like the Cisco Meraki Z1 Cloud Managed Teleworker Gateway)
need to be able to initialize the PCIe wifi device. Normally, this is done
during the early stages of booting linux, because the necessary init code
is read from the memory mapped SPI and passed to pci_enable_ath9k_fixup.
However,this isn't possible for devices which have the init code for the
Atheros chip stored on NAND in an UBI volume. Hence, this module can be
used to initialze the chip when the user-space is ready to extract the
init code.

Martin Blumenstingl made a few fixes and added support for lantiq:
kernel: owl-loader: add support for OWL emulation PCI devices
kernel: owl-loader: don't re-scan the bus when ath9k_pci_fixup failed
kernel: owl-loader: use dev_* instead of pr_* logging functions
kernel: owl-loader: auto-generate the eeprom filename as fallback
kernel: owl-loader: add a debug message when swapping the eeprom data
kernel: owl-loader: add missing newlines in log messages
kernel: owl-loader: add support for the lantiq platform

These patches have been integrated. Thanks!

42f559ed70 kernel: backport upstream overlayfs fixes
First two patches weren't marked for stable but are dependencies for
laters ones. The rest of patches was marked for stable but most likely
will be backported to 4.5+ only so we need to get them on our own.

An important fix is eea2fb4851e9d ("ovl: proper cleanup of workdir") as
it allows mounting overlayfs with dirty workdir, e.g. after power cut.

d9345bc5bf kernel: fix crashlog on x86/64
The bootmem area reserved for crashlog might be smaller than CRASHLOG_OFFSET
bytes, leading to an integer underflow when calculating the memory address
in crashlog_set_addr() which subsequently causes the kernel to crash when
attempting to vmap() the crashlog pages.

Change the logic to only consider the offset when the size of the used memory
area is sufficient.

18f368fa35 linux: Get rid of 000-keep_initrafs_the_default.patch
With that patch in place for initramfs no additional options are
reported for "/" partition. What's really important is missing
info about sizes. Which in its turn makes opkg think that there's
no space on "/" partition to install software.

I understand that's a sort of corner-case, people rarely install
packages on ramfs but anyways why not?

Just in case that's what I see with the patch:
---------------------->8--------------------
root@lede:/# cat /proc/mounts
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0
proc /proc proc rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime 0 0
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid,relatime,size=512k,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,mode=600 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs rw,noatime 0 0
---------------------->8--------------------

And without:
---------------------->8--------------------
root@lede:/# cat /proc/mounts
rootfs / rootfs rw,size=256168k,nr_inodes=32021 0 0
proc /proc proc rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime 0 0
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid,relatime,size=512k,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,mode=600 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs rw,noatime 0 0
---------------------->8--------------------

Note how different is entry for rootfs.

And given there's no known rationale for that patch we're
getting rid of it.

f576ff05a1 kernel: Fix ipv6 mc snooping if bridge has no ipv6 address
This patch is a backport for current LEDE 4.4 Kernels.
It is already upstream, for linux-next and stable.
The initial commit message is below:

The bridge is falsly dropping ipv6 mulitcast packets if there is:
 1. No ipv6 address assigned on the brigde.
 2. No external mld querier present.
 3. The internal querier enabled.

When the bridge fails to build mld queries, because it has no
ipv6 address, it slilently returns, but keeps the local querier enabled.
This specific case causes confusing packet loss.

Ipv6 multicast snooping can only work if:
 a) An external querier is present
 OR
 b) The bridge has an ipv6 address an is capable of sending own queries

Otherwise it has to forward/flood the ipv6 multicast traffic,
because snooping cannot work.

This patch fixes the issue by adding a flag to the bridge struct that
indicates that there is currently no ipv6 address assinged to the bridge
and returns a false state for the local querier in
__br_multicast_querier_exists().

Special thanks to Linus Lüssing.

bf32177a1d kernel: remove full cache flush in fuse_copy_do() for MIPS
This patch was introduced in commit r16412 for the brcm47xx target only
and then moved to generic in commit r32395. It was initially added
because of ticket #5186 and should fix some problems with fuse file
systems and MIPS caches. The commit comment in r32395 says that this a
generic problem in MIPS CPUs, but does not name any specifics about
that. There was a fix added to kernel 2.6.21 in commit commit
7575a49f20 "[MIPS] Implement flush_anon_page()." that should fix this
problem, but that was already available before both commits were done
to OpenWrt.

I just tested fuse with ntfs.3g without this patch on a BCM4704
(BMIPS3300 V0.6) SoC and haven't seen any problems. Someone reported
that removing this patch improves some fuse operations by 5 times on
some modern MIPS cores.
My test was only a simple "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/zero bs=5000" to an
USB stick.

This patch removes the patch to OpenWrt, because I assume that it is
not needed any more and Felix, the orginal author, also thinks so.

f97ad870e1 squashfs4: use upstream xz compression header format
In the upstream kernel and the upstream squashfs4 tools the xz
compression header looks the following:
struct disk_comp_opts {
        __le32 dictionary_size;
        __le32 flags;
};

We added some other members and also moved some existing members. Place
the members which are already in upstream header at the same position
as in that kernel and add our own at the end. The kernel should not
have a problem when there are some additional members and just ignore
them.

67475b0e31 kernel: backport cosmetic ubifs patch
Despite the MS_SILENT flag being set when probing for ubifs rootfs a
logline indicating an error is generated during boot:
UBIFS error (pid: 1): cannot open "ubi0:rootfs", error -19
This leads to confusion and there shouldn't be lines containing
the word 'error' twice in a bootlog if actually everything is fine
(just the rootfs happens to be something else than ubifs)

The patch added has been submitted and was accepted upstream, see:

e288e1bd32 kernel: fq_codel match flows_cnt to limit sizing
OpenWRT changed the default fq_codel sch->limit from 10240 to 1024,
without also adjusting q->flows_cnt.  Eric Dumazet explains below that
you must also adjust the buckets (q->flows_cnt) for this not to break.

Eric explains: Limit of 1024 packets and 1024 flows is not wise I think.
(If all buckets are in use, each bucket has a virtual queue of 1 packet,
which is almost the same than having no queue at all)

I suggest to have at least 8 packets per bucket, to let Codel have a
chance to trigger.  So you could either reduce number of buckets to 128
(if memory is tight), or increase limit to 8192.

flows_cnt is now set to 1024/8=128
