Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

Four minor merge conflicts:

1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device
   from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call
   got moved further up in the probe function.

2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params
   structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the
   initializer function.

3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is
   completely removed in 'net-next'.

4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations
   had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the
   argument signature a bit.

This also matches example merge resolutions posted by Stephen
Rothwell over the past two days.

 Syscalls
 ========
 
-Syscalls made from within an active transaction will not be performed and the
-transaction will be doomed by the kernel with the failure code TM_CAUSE_SYSCALL
-| TM_CAUSE_PERSISTENT.
+Performing syscalls from within transaction is not recommended, and can lead
+to unpredictable results.
 
-Syscalls made from within a suspended transaction are performed as normal and
-the transaction is not explicitly doomed by the kernel.  However, what the
-kernel does to perform the syscall may result in the transaction being doomed
-by the hardware.  The syscall is performed in suspended mode so any side
-effects will be persistent, independent of transaction success or failure.  No
-guarantees are provided by the kernel about which syscalls will affect
-transaction success.
+Syscalls do not by design abort transactions, but beware: The kernel code will
+not be running in transactional state.  The effect of syscalls will always
+remain visible, but depending on the call they may abort your transaction as a
+side-effect, read soon-to-be-aborted transactional data that should not remain
+invisible, etc.  If you constantly retry a transaction that constantly aborts
+itself by calling a syscall, you'll have a livelock & make no progress.
 
-Care must be taken when relying on syscalls to abort during active transactions
-if the calls are made via a library.  Libraries may cache values (which may
-give the appearance of success) or perform operations that cause transaction
-failure before entering the kernel (which may produce different failure codes).
-Examples are glibc's getpid() and lazy symbol resolution.
+Simple syscalls (e.g. sigprocmask()) "could" be OK.  Even things like write()
+from, say, printf() should be OK as long as the kernel does not access any
+memory that was accessed transactionally.
+
+Consider any syscalls that happen to work as debug-only -- not recommended for
+production use.  Best to queue them up till after the transaction is over.
