Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6: (1623 commits) netxen: update copyright netxen: fix tx timeout recovery netxen: fix file firmware leak netxen: improve pci memory access netxen: change firmware write size tg3: Fix return ring size breakage netxen: build fix for INET=n cdc-phonet: autoconfigure Phonet address Phonet: back-end for autoconfigured addresses Phonet: fix netlink address dump error handling ipv6: Add IFA_F_DADFAILED flag net: Add DEVTYPE support for Ethernet based devices mv643xx_eth.c: remove unused txq_set_wrr() ucc_geth: Fix hangs after switching from full to half duplex ucc_geth: Rearrange some code to avoid forward declarations phy/marvell: Make non-aneg speed/duplex forcing work for 88E1111 PHYs drivers/net/phy: introduce missing kfree drivers/net/wan: introduce missing kfree net: force bridge module(s) to be GPL Subject: [PATCH] appletalk: Fix skb leak when ipddp interface is not loaded ... Fixed up trivial conflicts: - arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree. The generic header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine. - drivers/net/tun.c fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use. Noted in 'next' by Stephen Rothwell.

9What: PRISM54
10When: 2.6.34
11
12Why: prism54 FullMAC PCI / Cardbus devices used to be supported only by the
13 prism54 wireless driver. After Intersil stopped selling these
14 devices in preference for the newer more flexible SoftMAC devices
15 a SoftMAC device driver was required and prism54 did not support
16 them. The p54pci driver now exists and has been present in the kernel for
17 a while. This driver supports both SoftMAC devices and FullMAC devices.
18 The main difference between these devices was the amount of memory which
19 could be used for the firmware. The SoftMAC devices support a smaller
20 amount of memory. Because of this the SoftMAC firmware fits into FullMAC
21 devices's memory. p54pci supports not only PCI / Cardbus but also USB
22 and SPI. Since p54pci supports all devices prism54 supports
23 you will have a conflict. I'm not quite sure how distributions are
24 handling this conflict right now. prism54 was kept around due to
25 claims users may experience issues when using the SoftMAC driver.
26 Time has passed users have not reported issues. If you use prism54
27 and for whatever reason you cannot use p54pci please let us know!
