Subject: [git pull] firewire net: resource management improvements

David,

please pull from the tag "firewire-net-resource-mgt" at

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394.git firewire-net-resource-mgt

to receive the following firewire-net driver changes:
  - fix memory leak and kmap leak at shutdown
  - release IR DMA context already at ifdown rather than shutdown
    (many controllers have got only 4 of them, so let's not hold it
    longer than strictly necessary)
  - misc startup/shutdown changes which prepare for later addition
    of IPv6-over-1394 support

YOSHIFUJI Hideaki (11):
      firewire net: No need to reset dev->local_fifo after failure of fw_core_add_address_handler().
      firewire net: Introduce fwnet_fifo_{start, stop}() helpers.
      firewire net: Setup broadcast and local fifo independently.
      firewire net: Check dev->broadcast_state inside fwnet_broadcast_start().
      firewire net: Fix memory leakage in fwnet_remove().
      firewire net: Clear dev->broadcast_rcv_context and dev->broadcast_state after destruction of context.
      firewire net: Omit checking dev->broadcast_rcv_context in fwnet_broadcast_start().
      firewire net: Fix leakage of kmap for broadcast receive buffer.
      firewire net: Allocate dev->broadcast_rcv_buffer_ptrs early.
      firewire net: Introduce fwnet_broadcast_stop() to destroy broadcast resources.
      firewire net: Release broadcast/fifo resources on ifdown.
