Paul Gortmaker ee40fa0656 drivers/net: Add export.h to files using EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE
These were getting the macros from an implicit module.h
include via device.h, but we are planning to clean that up.

drivers/net: Add export.h to wireless/brcm80211/brcmfmac/bcmsdh.c

This relatively recently added file uses EXPORT_SYMBOL and hence
needs export.h included so that it is compatible with the module.h
split up work.

Paul Gortmaker 9d9779e723 drivers/net: Add module.h to drivers who were implicitly using it
The device.h header was including module.h, making it present for
most of these drivers.  But we want to clean that up.  Call out the
include of module.h in the modular network drivers.

Johannes Berg 47086fc51a mac80211: implement uAPSD
Add uAPSD support to mac80211. This is probably not
possible with all devices, so advertising it with
the cfg80211 flag will be left up to drivers that
want it.

Due to my previous patches it is now a fairly
straight-forward extension. Drivers need to have
accurate TX status reporting for the EOSP frame.
For drivers that buffer themselves, the provided
APIs allow releasing the right number of frames,
but then drivers need to set EOSP and more-data
themselves. This is documented in more detail in
the new code itself.

Christian Lamparter be8d98eab8 p54: implement multicast filter
"For best CPU usage and power consumption, having as few
frames as possible percolate through the stack is
desirable. Hence, the hardware should filter as much
as possible."

Note: Not all firmwares include the multicast filter
feature and the stack does not filter them either.
The ARP filter on the other hand was dropped from the
patch since it does not work correctly:

Quote from: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com>
<http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg67466.html>
"In the ARP case, when there's no other traffic on p54spi,
all ARP requests are dropped. But if there's some egress
traffic from p54spi, filter seems to work correctly:
only ARP requests that match filter pass through.

In the multicast case filter seems to work correctly, but
it treats broadcast as subject to that filtering too. By
default only 01:00:5e:00:00:01 gets into priv->mc_maclist,
so we miss all broadcasts.

These two filters seem to interfere:
- if we set ARP filter and multicast filter without bc
	=>  we miss all ARPs if there's no egress traffic;
- if we set ARP filter and multicast filter with bc or
	don't set mc filter at all => we get all ARPs.

This effect does not depend on filter setup order."

Jason Conti a6756da9ea p54: Initialize extra_len in p54_tx_80211
This patch fixes a very serious off-by-one bug in
the driver, which could leave the device in an
unresponsive state.

The problem was that the extra_len variable [used to
reserve extra scratch buffer space for the firmware]
was left uninitialized. Because p54_assign_address
later needs the value to reserve additional space,
the resulting frame could be to big for the small
device's memory window and everything would
immediately come to a grinding halt.

Johannes Berg 7bb4568372 mac80211: make tx() operation return void
The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).

Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.

Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

Whereas IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is set for

either the driver or firmware has to assign one.

Yup, it's the exact opposite!

In this code, 0 is returned on memory allocation failure, even though other
failures return -ENOMEM or other similar values.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression ret;
expression x,e1,e2,e3;
@@

ret = 0
... when != ret = e1
*x = \(kmalloc\|kcalloc\|kzalloc\)(...)
... when != ret = e2
if (x == NULL) { ... when != ret = e3
  return ret;
}
// </smpl>

Michael Büsch f4bbf922f3 p54spi: Add error message for eeprom failure
This adds an error message for the eeprom request failure
case. This way it's easier for the user to figure out
what went wrong.

Christian Lamparter f880c2050f p54: fix tx feedback status flag check
Michael reported that p54* never really entered power
save mode, even tough it was enabled.

It turned out that upon a power save mode change the
firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing
frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the
designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the
driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures
to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc.
and so on...

Christian Lamparter 45f7e3116f p54: better rssi->dbm conversion for longbow phys
This patch should fix the dodgy signal and noise value
reports for most longbow (p54spi) users:

e.g.: (an older tcpdump extract)
> 2.0 Mb/s 2437 MHz (0x00a0) -49dB signal -41dB noise
> 1.0 Mb/s 2437 MHz (0x00a0) 4dB signal -41dB noise

The formula is taken from stlc45xx:
