Introduce a function br_parse_ip_options that will audit the
skb and possibly refill IP options before a packet enters the
IP stack. If no options are present, the function will zero out
the skb cb area so that it is not misinterpreted as options by some
unsuspecting IP layer routine. If packet consistency fails, drop it.

qlcnic driver allocates rx skbs and gives to hardware too bytes of extra
storage, allowing for corruption of kernel data.
NET_IP_ALIGN being 0 on some platforms (including x86), drivers should
not assume it's 2.
rds_ring->skb_size = rds_ring->dma_size + NET_IP_ALIGN;
...
skb = dev_alloc_skb(rds_ring->skb_size);
skb_reserve(skb, 2);
pci_map_single(pdev, skb->data, rds_ring->dma_size, PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE);
(and rds_ring->skb_size == rds_ring->dma_size) -> bug
Because of extra alignment (1500 + 32) -> four extra bytes are available
before the struct skb_shared_info, so corruption is not noticed.
Note: this driver could use netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align()

previously, if a vlan master device was moved from one network namespace
to another, all 802.1q and macvlan slaves were deleted.
we can use dev->reg_state to figure out whether dev_change_net_namespace

so, this changes 8021q and macvlan to ignore NETDEV_UNREGISTER when

The first version of the driver had hard-coded the logic
for handling the checksum offloading.
This was designed according to the chips included in
the STM platforms where:
o MAC10/100 supports no COE at all.
o GMAC fully supports RX/TX COE.
This is not good for other chip configurations where,
for example, the mac10/100 supports the tx csum in HW
or when the GMAC has no IPC.
Thanks to Johannes Stezenbach; he provided me a first
draft of this patch that only reviewed the IPC for the
GMAC devices.
This patch also helps on SPEAr platforms where the
MAC10/100 can perform the TX csum in HW.
Thanks to Deepak SIKRI for his support on this.
In the end, GMAC devices for STM platforms have
a bugged Jumbo frame support that needs to have
the Tx COE disabled for oversized frames (due to
limited buffer sizes). This information is also
passed through the driver's platform structure.
