Johannes Berg 948f5a2f08 iwlwifi: refactor iwl_setup_rxon_timing
All callers of iwl_setup_rxon_timing() also send
the command right away, so rename the function
to iwl_send_rxon_timing() and move the sending
into it. Also, some callers clear the data, this
can be done always and thus moved in as well.
Finally, there's no reason for the function to
acquire the spinlock, but it should be called
with the mutex held, so assert that.

Shanyu Zhao 3edb5fd6ac iwlwifi: cleanup iwl_set_rxon_channel()
Update outdated comments of iwl_set_rxon_channel() to reflect the
current signature. Also remove the unnecessary validation of the
channel. Those channel info are constructed in iwlwifi driver
and mac80211 will never modify the content of the struct. Also
everytime before this function is called the channel info has
been validated already (as a paranoid check).

Shanyu Zhao aa2dc6b529 iwlwifi: avoid race condition in channel change
When iwl_mac_config() is called by mac80211, the channel pointer
hw->conf->channel can potentially change, resulting in mismatch
band and channel number when configuring RXON command. To avoid
this situation, save the channel pointer in local variables
and validate the channel before using it. Note that priv->mutex
is locked during the whole function so the local variables are safe.

Same change is applied to iwl_mac_channel_switch() since basically
it copies code from iwl_mac_config().

Also removed an outdated comment in the flow.

Shanyu Zhao 81e95430aa iwlwifi: do not call ieee80211_frequency_to_channel
A few cases in iwlwifi driver function ieee80211_frequency_to_channel()
is called to get channel number from center frequency. This is not needed
since the channel number is already saved in hw_value field of struct
ieee80211_channel in function iwlcore_init_geos(). So replace those function
calls with hw_value field of struct ieee80211_channel.

Christian Lamparter d7eb50c0f7 p54: improve eeprom parser
Like other vendors, p54* devices have a checksum for
the EEPROM descriptor data. This patch enhances the
parser code to generate and verify the data fields,
before initializing the radio-chip on the card.

Note:
	If you have to bootstrap an alternative EEPROM image
	for your device and you don't know how to generate a
	valid crc ccitt checksum, you should take a look at:
	http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/chr/p54tools.git

	The "checksum" utility loads a binary p54 EEPROM blob
	(use the -f switch, to skip the check) and applies
	the correct crc automatically.

Dan Williams 72f7a6671e libertas: add two-stage firmware request helper
SDIO, GSPI, and CS all use 2-stage firmware and the loading
process and logic should be the same.  Allow module parameters
to override the automatic firmware choice, otherwise just walk
the bus driver's firmware table and pick out the first firmware
pair that exists for the given model.

Some special care is taken to allow overriding of just the helper
or the main firmware, but let the other of the pair be chosen
automatically.

Dan Williams 5cddea816e libertas: [usb] use new firmware locations
Look for firmware where the linux-firmware tree actually puts it, but
fall back to original firmware name & location when the new location
doesn't exist.

Ivo van Doorn e5ef5bad34 rt2x00: Remove ieee80211_rx_status from rt2x00_dev
rt2x00 was keeping a copy of ieee80211_rx_status embedded
into the rt2x00_dev structure. For each RX frame, this structure
was copied into the skb->cb where mac80211 would handle it further.

However at the moment only the fields current band, and frequency
were updated. Whereas the band was already provided directly within
the rt2x00_dev structure. Save a memcpy action, and reduce memory
a bit, by adding a curr_freq field to rt2x00_dev, and completely
remove the ieee80211_rx_status structure from rt2x00_dev.

Helmut Schaa 0856d9c04a rt2x00: Update comments regarding TXWI and TX_STA_FIFO
Add some comments about the TXWI fields and the TX_STA_FIFO register.
Especially describe the relationship between the TXWI field PACKETID
and the PID field in the TX_STA_FIFO register.

Ivo van Doorn 96481b20f4 rt2x00: Implement TX status reporting for rt2800usb
The TX_STA_FIFO register which is used for per-frame TX frame
status reporting is also valid on rt2800usb. We can move the
rt2800pci_txdone function into rt2800lib where it can also
be used by rt2800usb.

rt2800usb needs to overwrite the txdone work handler to
a different function.

Both rt2800usb as rt2800_txdone need to take into account
that IO failures can occur while uploading the URB, which
means that when obtaining the new entry the IO status must
be checked.

Ivo van Doorn 0c5879bc62 rt2x00: Request TXWI pointer from driver
The only reason why the write_tx_data callback function
is needed inside the driver, is because the location of
the TXWI descriptor is different on PCI and USB hardware.
Except for the beacon, where the TXWI is always at the
start of the SKB buffer.

In both cases the drivers write_tx_data function only
wrap around the function rt2800_write_txwi. Move write_tx_data
completely into the rt2800lib library, and add a callback
function to obtain the TXWI pointer.

Ivo van Doorn 3392beced3 rt2x00: Add helper function for reporting tx status
At some points, some drivers can't report the full TX status
information. This can happen for the UNKNOWN state, or the
FAILURE state (in case the URB failed).
Add a wrapper function to simplify reporting the
empty TX information.
