This patch makes cfg80211 show the interface in the nl80211

133b822638 mac80211: make master iface not wireless
There's no need to register the master netdev with cfg80211,
in fact, this is quite dangerous and lead to having to add
checks for the master interface all over the config handlers.
This patch removes the "ieee80211_ptr" from the master iface
in favour of having a small netdev_priv() associated with
the master interface that stores the ieee80211_local pointer.
Because of this, a lot of code in the configuration handlers
can go away. To make this patch easier to verify I have also
removed a number of wiphy_priv() calls in favour of getting
the sdata first and then the local pointer from that.

9930ccee16 wireless: Read scan flags correctly on x86-64
The SIOCSIWSCAN handler is passed data in an iw_point structure. Some
drivers erronously use an iw_param instead.

On 32 bit architectures the difference isn't noticed as the flags
parameter tends to be the only one used by scan handlers and is at the
same offset.

On 64 bit architectures the pointer in the iw_point structure means the
flag parameter is at different offsets in these structures.

Thanks to Jean Tourrilhes for tracking this down for orinoco, and Pavel
Roskin for confirming the fix and identifying other suspect handlers.

d87798450a aoe: Fix OOPS after SKB queue changes.
Reported by Thomas Graf.

If we don't unlink the SKB from the queue when we send it
out in aoenet_xmit(), dev_hard_start_xmit() will see skb->next
as non-NULL and interpret this to mean the SKB is part of a
GSO segment list.

Add __skb_unlink() call to fix that.

0b815a1a6d net: network device name ifalias support
This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias
associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining
the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this
to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It
is just an arbitrary text label on the network device.

There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be
read/written either via netlink or sysfs.

This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more
generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good
place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.

5c1824587f ipsec: Fix xfrm_state_walk race
As discovered by Timo Teräs, the currently xfrm_state_walk scheme
is racy because if a second dump finishes before the first, we
may free xfrm states that the first dump would walk over later.

This patch fixes this by storing the dumps in a list in order
to calculate the correct completion counter which cures this
problem.

I've expanded netlink_cb in order to accomodate the extra state
related to this.  It shouldn't be a big deal since netlink_cb
is kmalloced for each dump and we're just increasing it by 4 or
8 bytes.
