bonding: Improve syslog message at device creation time
When the bonding module is loaded, it creates bond0 by default.
Then, when attempting to create bond0, the following messages
are printed to syslog:
kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created...
kernel: bonding: Bond creation failed.
Which seems to indicate a problem, when in reality there is no
problem. Since the actual error code is passed down from bond_create,
make use of it to print a bit less ominous message:
kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created...
kernel: bond0 already exists.

bonding: Call netif_carrier_off after register_netdevice
Bringing up a bond interface with all network cables disconnected
does not properly set the interface as DOWN because the call to
netif_carrier_off occurs too early in bond_init. The call needs
to occur after register_netdevice has set dev->reg_state to
NETREG_REGISTERED, so that netif_carrier_off will trigger the

bonding: Incorrect TX queue offset
When packets come in from a device with >= 16 receive queues
headed out a bonding interface, syslog gets filled with this:
kernel: bond0 selects TX queue 16, but real number of TX queues is 16
because queue_mapping is offset by 1. Adjust return value
to account for the offset.
This is a revision of my earlier patch (which did not use the
skb_rx_queue_* helpers - thanks to Ben for the suggestion).
Andy submitted a similar patch which emits a pr_warning on
invalid queue selection, but I believe the log spew is
not useful. We can revisit that question in the future,
but in the interim I believe fixing the core problem is
worthwhile.

net_sched: fix ip_tos2prio
ECN support incorrectly maps ECN BESTEFFORT packets to TC_PRIO_FILLER

Currently, the new percpu counters are not zeroed and
the zero commands do not work as expected, we still show the old
sum of percpu values. OTOH, we can not reset the percpu counters
from user context without causing the incrementing to use old
and bogus values.
So, as Eric Dumazet suggested fix that by moving all overhead
to stats reading in user context. Do not introduce overhead in
timer context (estimator) and incrementing (packet handling in
softirqs).
The new ustats0 field holds the zero point for all
counter values, the rates always use 0 as base value as before.
When showing the values to user space just give the difference
between counters and the base values. The only drawback is that
percpu stats are not zeroed, they are accessible only from /proc
and are new interface, so it should not be a compatibility problem
as long as the sum stats are correct after zeroing.

macvlan : fix checksums error when we are in bridge mode
When the lower device has offloading capabilities, the packets checksums
are not computed. That leads to have any macvlan port in bridge mode to
not work because the packets are dropped due to a bad checksum.
If the macvlan is in bridge mode, the packet is forwarded to another
macvlan port and reach the network stack where it looks for a checksum
but this one was not computed due to the offloading of the lower device.
In this case, we have to set the packet with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
when it is forwarded to a bridged port and restore the previous value of
ip_summed when the packet goes to the lowerdev.

mac80211: Shortcut minstrel_ht rate setup for non-MRR capable devices
Devices without multi rate retry support won't be able to use all rates
as specified by mintrel_ht. Hence, we can simply skip setting up further
rates as the devices will only use the first one.
Also add a special case for devices with only two possible tx rates. We
use sample_rate -> max_prob_rate for sampling and max_tp_rate ->
max_prob_rate by default.
