used by broadcast link NACK messages.

Completely redesigns broadcast link ACK and NACK mechanisms to prevent
spurious retransmit requests in dual LAN networks, and to prevent the
broadcast link from stalling due to the failure of a receiving node to
acknowledge receiving a broadcast message or request its retransmission.
Note: These changes only impact the timing of when ACK and NACK messages
are sent, and not the basic broadcast link protocol itself, so inter-
operability with nodes using the "classic" algorithms is maintained.
The revised algorithms are as follows:
1) An explicit ACK message is still sent after receiving 16 in-sequence
messages, and implicit ACK information continues to be carried in other
unicast link message headers (including link state messages). However,
the timing of explicit ACKs is now based on the receiving node's absolute
network address rather than its relative network address to ensure that
the failure of another node does not delay the ACK beyond its 16 message
target.
2) A NACK message is now typically sent only when a message gap persists
for two consecutive incoming link state messages; this ensures that a
suspected gap is not confirmed until both LANs in a dual LAN network have
had an opportunity to deliver the message, thereby preventing spurious NACKs.
A NACK message can also be generated by the arrival of a single link state
message, if the deferred queue is so big that the current message gap
cannot be the result of "normal" mis-ordering due to the use of dual LANs
(or one LAN using a bonded interface). Since link state messages typically
arrive at different nodes at different times the problem of multiple nodes
issuing identical NACKs simultaneously is inherently avoided.
3) Nodes continue to "peek" at NACK messages sent by other nodes. If
another node requests retransmission of a message gap suspected (but not
yet confirmed) by the peeking node, the peeking node forgets about the
gap and does not generate a duplicate retransmit request. (If the peeking
node subsequently fails to receive the lost message, later link state
messages will cause it to rediscover and confirm the gap and send another
NACK.)
4) Message gap "equality" is now determined by the start of the gap only.
This is sufficient to deal with the most common cases of message loss,
and eliminates the need for complex end of gap computations.
5) A peeking node no longer tries to determine whether it should send a
complementary NACK, since the most common cases of message loss don't
require it to be sent. Consequently, the node no longer examines the
"broadcast tag" field of a NACK message when peeking.

Ensures that all attempts to update broadcast link statistics are done

Modifies broadcast link so that it increments the "received duplicate
message" count if an incoming message cannot be added to the deferred
message queue because it is already present in the queue. (The aligns
broadcast link behavior with that of TIPC's unicast links.)

Fixes a pair of problems in broadcast link message reception code
relating to the reclamation of the node lock after consuming an
in-sequence message.
1) Now retests to see if the sending node is still up after reclaiming
the node lock, and bails out if it is non-operational.
2) Now manipulates the node's deferred message queue only after
reclaiming the node lock, rather than using queue head pointer
information that was cached previously.

Ensures that any attempt to send a NACK message over TIPC's broadcast
link has exclusive access to the link's main data structures, to prevent
interference with a simultaneous attempt to send other broadcast link
traffic (such as application-generated multicast messages).

Corrects a problem in which a link endpoint that activates as the
result of receiving a RESET/STATE sequence of link protocol messages
fails to properly record the broadcast link status information about
the node to which it is now communicating with. (The problem does
not occur with the more common RESET/ACTIVATE sequence of messages.)
The fix ensures that the broadcast link status info is updated after
the RESET message resets the link endpoint, rather than before, thereby
preventing new information from being overwritten by the reset operation.

Fix a bug that can prevent TIPC from sending broadcast messages to a node
if contact with the node is lost and then regained. The problem occurs if
the broadcast link first clears the flag indicating the node is part of the
link's distribution set (when it loses contact with the node), and later
fails to restore the flag (when contact is regained); restoration fails
if contact with the node is regained by implicit unicast link activation
triggered by the arrival of a data message, rather than explicitly by the
arrival of a link activation message.
The broadcast link now uses separate fields to track whether a node is
theoretically capable of receiving broadcast messages versus whether it is
actually part of the link's distribution set. The former member is updated
by the receipt of link protocol messages, which can occur at any time; the
latter member is updated only when contact with the node is gained or lost.
This change also permits the simplification of several conditional
expressions since the broadcast link's "supported" field can now only be
set if there are working links to the associated node.

Ensure that sequence number information about incoming broadcast link
messages is initialized only by the activation of the first link to a
given cluster node. Previously, a race condition allowed reset and/or
activation messages for a second link to re-initialize this sequence
number information with obsolete values. This could trigger TIPC to
request the retransmission of previously acknowledged broadcast link
messages from that node, resulting in broadcast link processing becoming
stalled if the node had already released one or more of those messages
and was unable to perform the required retransmission.
Thanks to Laser <gotolaser@gmail.com> for identifying this problem
and assisting in the development of this fix.

Ensures that a link endpoint discards any previously deferred link
protocol message whenever it attempts to send a new one.
Previously, it was possible for a link protocol message that was unsent
due to congestion to be transmitted after newer protocol messages had
been sent. The stale link protocol message might then cause the receiving
link endpoint to malfunction because of its outdated conent.
Thanks to Osamu Kaminuma [okaminum@avaya.com] for diagnosing the problem
and contributing a prototype patch.

Sync DMA descriptor before hitting the TX mailbox for weak memory model
CPUs.
There has been discussions several years ago about this. Some believe
that writel() should guarantee ordering. Others want explicit barriers
if necessary. Today writel() does not have the ordering guarantee and
many other drivers use explicit barriers.
