The mesh_plink code is doing some interesting things with the
ignore_plink_timer flag. It seems the original intent was to
handle this race:
cpu 0 cpu 1
----- -----
start timer handler for state X
acquire sta_lock
change state from X to Y
mod_timer() / del_timer()
release sta_lock
acquire sta_lock
execute state Y timer too soon
However, using the mod_timer()/del_timer() return values to
detect these cases is broken. As a result, timers get ignored
unnecessarily, and stations can get stuck in the peering state
machine.
Instead, we can detect the case by looking at the timer expiration.
In the case of del_timer, just ignore the timers in the following
(LISTEN/ESTAB) states since they won't have timers anyway.

It is currently possible to have a race due to the station PS
unblock work like this:
* station goes to sleep with frames buffered in the driver
* driver blocks wakeup
* station wakes up again
* driver flushes/returns frames, and unblocks, which schedules
the unblock work
* unblock work starts to run, and checks that the station is
awake (i.e. that the WLAN_STA_PS_STA flag isn't set)
* we process a received frame with PM=1, setting the flag again
* ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() runs, delivering all frames
to the driver, and then clearing the WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER and
WLAN_STA_PS_STA flags
In this scenario, mac80211 will think that the station is awake,
while it really is asleep, and any TX'ed frames should be filtered
by the device (it will know that the station is sleeping) but then
passed to mac80211 again, which will not buffer it either as it
thinks the station is awake, and eventually the packets will be
dropped.
Fix this by moving the clearing of the flags to exactly where we
learn about the situation. This creates a problem of reordering,
so introduce another flag indicating that delivery is being done,
this new flag also queues frames and is cleared only while the
spinlock is held (which the queuing code also holds) so that any
concurrent delivery/TX is handled correctly.

Commit 3fd091e73b81 ("[SCTP]: Remove multiple levels of msecs
to jiffies conversions.") has silently changed permissions for
rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs from 0644 to 0444. The purpose of
this was to discourage users from tweaking rto_alpha and
rto_beta knobs in production environments since they are key
to correctly compute rtt/srtt.
RFC4960 under section 6.3.1. RTO Calculation says regarding
rto_alpha and rto_beta under rule C3 and C4:
[...]
C3) When a new RTT measurement R' is made, set
RTTVAR <- (1 - RTO.Beta) * RTTVAR + RTO.Beta * |SRTT - R'|
and
SRTT <- (1 - RTO.Alpha) * SRTT + RTO.Alpha * R'
Note: The value of SRTT used in the update to RTTVAR
is its value before updating SRTT itself using the
second assignment. After the computation, update
RTO <- SRTT + 4 * RTTVAR.
C4) When data is in flight and when allowed by rule C5
below, a new RTT measurement MUST be made each round
trip. Furthermore, new RTT measurements SHOULD be
made no more than once per round trip for a given
destination transport address. There are two reasons
for this recommendation: First, it appears that
measuring more frequently often does not in practice
yield any significant benefit [ALLMAN99]; second,
if measurements are made more often, then the values
of RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta in rule C3 above should be
adjusted so that SRTT and RTTVAR still adjust to
changes at roughly the same rate (in terms of how many
round trips it takes them to reflect new values) as
they would if making only one measurement per
round-trip and using RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta as given
in rule C3. However, the exact nature of these
adjustments remains a research issue.
[...]
While it is discouraged to adjust rto_alpha and rto_beta
and not further specified how to adjust them, the RFC also
doesn't explicitly forbid it, but rather gives a RECOMMENDED
default value (rto_alpha=3, rto_beta=2). We have a couple
of users relying on the old permissions before they got
changed. That said, if someone really has the urge to adjust
them, we could allow it with a warning in the log.
