Due to a problem in U-MoBo schematics, the board does not work against Gigabit Ethernet switches, when mounting an i.MX6 SoM.

This change to Linux driver for Micrel KSZ9031 prevent it from advertising its Gigabit capabilities, allowing the board to work with Gigabit switches at reduced speed (10/100 MBps).

Since the hardware does not work at all when connected to Gigabit switches, then I think that this change MUST be merged into the original u-mobo/linux-imx repository; the only other option is to modify the hardware, but we cannot do that on GitHub ;) and anyway it won't fix the boards already produced.

Commit f7513e2 disables Gigabit at all, while commit f48868a introduces a kernel parameter (gigabit=1) which can be useful if in the future we will need enable Gigabit again (e.g. when new board schematics will be created, fixing the problem)

Furthermore the Clicktouch screen touchscreen support has been added to silverbullet kernel default configuration (commi 11ac51c)

commit 3dc91d4 upstream.

While running stress tests on adding and deleting ftrace instances I hit
this bug:

  CR2: 0000000000000020

Investigating, I found that the inode->i_security was NULL, and the
dereference of it caused the oops.

in selinux_inode_permission():

	isec = inode->i_security;

	rc = avc_has_perm_noaudit(sid, isec->sid, isec->sclass, perms, 0, &avd);

Note, the crash came from stressing the deletion and reading of debugfs
files.  I was not able to recreate this via normal files.  But I'm not
sure they are safe.  It may just be that the race window is much harder
to hit.

What seems to have happened (and what I have traced), is the file is
being opened at the same time the file or directory is being deleted.
As the dentry and inode locks are not held during the path walk, nor is
the inodes ref counts being incremented, there is nothing saving these
structures from being discarded except for an rcu_read_lock().

The rcu_read_lock() protects against freeing of the inode, but it does
not protect freeing of the inode_security_struct.  Now if the freeing of
the i_security happens with a call_rcu(), and the i_security field of
the inode is not changed (it gets freed as the inode gets freed) then
there will be no issue here.  (Linus Torvalds suggested not setting the
field to NULL such that we do not need to check if it is NULL in the
permission check).

Note, this is a hack, but it fixes the problem at hand.  A real fix is
to restructure the destroy_inode() to call all the destructor handlers
from the RCU callback.  But that is a major job to do, and requires a
lot of work.  For now, we just band-aid this bug with this fix (it
works), and work on a more maintainable solution in the future.

Setting an empty security context (length=0) on a file will
lead to incorrectly dereferencing the type and other fields
of the security context structure, yielding a kernel BUG.
As a zero-length security context is never valid, just reject
all such security contexts whether coming from userspace
via setxattr or coming from the filesystem upon a getxattr
request by SELinux.

Setting a security context value (empty or otherwise) unknown to
SELinux in the first place is only possible for a root process
(CAP_MAC_ADMIN), and, if running SELinux in enforcing mode, only
if the corresponding SELinux mac_admin permission is also granted
to the domain by policy.  In Fedora policies, this is only allowed for
specific domains such as livecd for setting down security contexts
that are not defined in the build host policy.

[On Android, this can only be set by root/CAP_MAC_ADMIN processes,
and if running SELinux in enforcing mode, only if mac_admin permission
is granted in policy.  In Android 4.4, this would only be allowed for
root/CAP_MAC_ADMIN processes that are also in unconfined domains. In current
AOSP master, mac_admin is not allowed for any domains except the recovery
console which has a legitimate need for it.  The other potential vector
is mounting a maliciously crafted filesystem for which SELinux fetches
xattrs (e.g. an ext4 filesystem on a SDcard).  However, the end result is
only a local denial-of-service (DOS) due to kernel BUG.  This fix is
queued for 3.14.]

Reproducer:
su
setenforce 0
touch foo
setfattr -n security.selinux foo

Caveat:
Relabeling or removing foo after doing the above may not be possible
without booting with SELinux disabled.  Any subsequent access to foo
after doing the above will also trigger the BUG.

We need to delete un-finished td from current request's td list
at ep_dequeue API, otherwise, this non-user td will be remained
at td list before this request is freed. So if we do ep_queue->
ep_dequeue->ep_queue sequence, when the complete interrupt for
the second ep_queue comes, we search td list for this request,
the first td (added by the first ep_queue) will be handled, and
its status is still active, so we will consider the this transfer
still not be completed, but in fact, it has completed. It causes
the peripheral side considers it never receives current data for
this transfer.

We met this problem when do "Error Recovery Test - Device Configured"
test item for USBCV2 MSC test, the host has never received ACK for
the IN token for CSW due to peripheral considers it does not get this
