This bug was being triggered by a call to acx_rate_policies in tx_work
without calling ps_elp_wakeup first. If we have full PSM enabled, this
happens rather often, immediately after association.

While scanning, it is possible that beacon and probe response frames are
received on other band than configured to the driver. In rx status
handling this has caused "Unsupported RX rate from HW" warnings. This
patch changes the wl1271_rate_to_index function to take the band of the
received frame as a parameter instead of using value configuret to
wl->band.

The number of entries in the TX queue is compared to the low watermark
value each time TX completion interrupts are handled.
However, the fact that a TX completion arrived does not necessarily mean
there are any less skbs in the TX queue.
In addition, a TX completion interrupt does not necessarily mean that there
are any new available TX blocks. Thus, queuing TX work when the low
watermark is reached might not be needed.
Fix this by moving the low watermark handling to the TX work function,
and avoid queuing TX work in this case.

While wl1271_irq_work handles RX directly (by calling wl1271_rx), a different
work is scheduled for transmitting packets. The IRQ work might handle more than
one interrupt during a single call, including multiple TX completion
interrupts. This might starve TX, since no packets are transmitted until all
interrupts are handled.
Fix this by calling the TX work function directly, instead of deferring
it.

In order to simplify the flow, and make new
enhancements easier, separate out the RXON
processing for modern AGN (5000 and newer)
from RXON processing for the older 3945 and
4965 devices. Avoid changing these old ones
to avoid regressions and move their code to
a new file (iwl-legacy.c). 4965 gets the
commit_rxon that used to be common for all
AGN devices, but with removed PAN support.
The new RXON processing is more central and
does more work in committing, so that it is
easier to follow.
To make it more evident what is split out
for legacy, split the necessary operations
for that into a new struct iwl_legacy_ops.
Those parts that still exist in the new AGN
code don't need to be parametrized.

We have seen several DMA races when we race against

here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA

There was some locking for starting some parts of
RX but not for starting the PCU. Include this otherwise
we can content against stopping the PCU.
This can potentially lead to races against different
buffers on the PCU which can lead to to the DMA RX
engine writing to buffers which are already freed.
This is part of a series that will help resolve the bug:

ath9k locks for starting RX but not for stopping RX. We could
potentially run into a situation where tried to stop RX
but immediately started RX. This allows for races on the
the RX engine deciding what buffer we last left off on
and could potentially cause ath9k to DMA into already
free'd memory or in the worst case at a later time to
already given memory to other drivers.
Fix this by locking stopping RX.

Timing issues in microcode for some devices can cause a compressed BA to
be sent to the driver prior to returning any a-MPDU notification.
Traces show RTS-CTS is exchanged and then the timer fires which causes an
empty BA to be sent which acknowledges nothing. This results in a noisy
printk. Only print the message if the bitmap is non-zero.

Since aggregation is usually triggered by tx completion, a hardware
reset (because of beacon stuck, tx hang or baseband hang) can
significantly delay the transmission of the next AMPDU (until the next
tx completion event).
Fix this by rescheduling aggregation after such a reset.

The ath9k aggregation code was already checking the rate control probe flag
to prevent starting an aggregate frame with a sampling rate. What was missing
was closing an aggregate before adding a probing frame to it.
Without that, rate control cannot have precise control over probing, which
delays using faster rates when the channel conditions improve.

This updates the initvals for the AR9003 2.2 chipsets. The initvals
are the initial register values we use for our registers upon hardware
reset. This synchs up the initvals to match what our latest recommendation
from our systems engineering team.
The description of changes in this update:
Improves ability to support very strong Rx conditions.
Enhances DFS support for AP-mode.
Improves performance of Tx carrier leak calibration.
Adds support for Japan channel 14 Tx filtering requirements.
Improves Tx power accuracy.
Impact:
Update required to address degraded throughput at very short range.
Update required for AP-mode DFS certification.
Update required to comply to IEEE Tx carrier leak specification.
May not meet expected +/- 2 dB Tx power accuracy without update.
The most important fix here would be the TX carrier leakage required
to comply with IEEE 802.11 specifications. The group of changes have
been tested all together in one release.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

calling dev_kfree_skb() since it is valid
to call it on NULL -- it becomes a no-op.
There's also no need to initialise the
beacon_skb variable to NULL just after
the memory it is in has been kzalloc'ed.
Some minor whitespace cleanups, and a
lock assertion in a function that needs
the mutex (to access the beacon_skb var)
complete the patch.

There are two passive 2.4 GHz channels: 12 and 13.
If you have a hidden SSID on those, you will not
be able to connect to it because we don't send out
probe requests there. We can allow this by using
the firmware's probe-after-rx functionality on
those channels as well.

iwlagn: reduce redundant parameter definitions
broke 3945 because Jay accidentally removed the
num_of_queues parameter for 3945, so that we now
attempt to allocate a zero-sized queue array,
which leads to SLUB returning ZERO_SIZE_PTR (0x10)
which we then try to dereference thus crashing the
system. Restore the necessary num_of_queues param.

kill_urb guarentees that when the function returns, the URB has
been fully killed. This means we don't need the extra sleeping
after the call to kill_urb.
kill_urb can however also guarentee the submit_urb to fail, as
a result, we must catch the return value from submit_urb an

The watchdog function must run on a work_queue
which is independent of any other work inside rt2x00.
The main reasons, being that a broken work on the mac80211
work_queue can otherwise prevent the watchdog to run (while
in fact the watchdog could fix the issue). And on the other
hand because the watchdog relies on the completion of the
completion handlers for RX/TX which for the USB case, occur
on the mac80211 workqueue.
This fixes some "Queue %d failed to flush" errors, which were
caused by the watchdog function waiting on the completion
handler which was scheduled to run right after the watchdog.

A lot of functions accept a struct rt2x00_dev combined with
either a struct queue_entry or struct data_queue argument.
This can be simplified by only passing on the queue/entry
argument.
In cases where rt2x00_dev and a sk_buff are send together,
we can send the queue_entry instead.
rt2x00usb_alloc_urb and rt2x00usb_free_urb have a bit
of vague naming. Instead they allocate all the data which
belongs to a rt2x00 data queue entry.

This patch attempts to ensure that ath9k's built-in rate control algorithm
does not rely on the value of the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len tx status
fields unless the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag is set.
This patch has not been tested.

This patch fixes the following problems with the rate control feedback
generated by ath9k for A-MPDU frames:
1. Rate control feedback is carried on the first frame of an aggregate
that is either ACKed, or has execeeded the software retry count and is
considered failed. However, ath9k would incorrectly assume the aggregate
had the length 1 if one of these conditions did not apply to the first
frame of the aggregate, but instead a later frame. This fix therefor
copies the bf_nframes field of the buffer in the same manner as the rates
field of the tx status.
2. Sometimes the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields of the tx status was
left uninitialized eventhough the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag was set.
This is now avoid by setting flag and fields in the same place.
3. Even if a frame has been selected for aggregation by mac80211 and
marked with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag it can sometimes happen that
ath9k transmits the frame without aggregation. In these cases the
ampdu_ack_len field could be incorrectly computed because the nbad
parameter to ath_tx_rc_status was incorrect.

wl1271 driver is under heavy development but on the other hand the older
wl1251 driver is currently considered more as a legacy driver. To make it
easier to develop wl1271 features move wl1251 to it's own directory,
drivers/net/wireless/wl1251.
There are no functional changes, only moving of files. One regression
is that Kconfig won't be updated automatically and user needs to enable
wl1251 manually with an older config file.

phy1 -> rt2800pci_txdone: Warning - Got TX status for an unavailable queue 7, dropping
Fix this by using the correct field definition for getting the QID out of the
