Christian Lamparter 29701e5abf p54: enable proper frame injection
This patch enables frame injection in monitor mode for all p54 devices.
As a result, any user can finally use the aircrack-ng suite out of the box.

e.g:
aireplay-ng --test wlan0
Trying broadcast probe requests...
Injection is working!

Christian Lamparter e2fe154e91 p54usb: fix nasty use after free
In theory, the firmware acks the received a data frame, before signaling the driver to free it again.
However Artur Skawina <art.08.09@gmail.com> has shown that it can happen in reverse order as well.
This is very bad and could lead to memory corruptions, oopses and panics.

Thanks to Artur Skawina <art.08.09@gmail.com> for reporting and debugging this issue.

Christian Lamparter 12da401e0d p54: more cryptographic accelerator fixes
If we let the firmware do the data encryption, we have to remove the ICV and
(M)MIC at the end of the frame before we can give it back to mac80211.
Or, these data frames have a few trailing bytes on cooked monitor interfaces.

On x86_64 architecture with 4K page size and SLUB debugging enabled, stress
testing on p54usb has resulted in skb allocation failures of O(1) and extreme

Christian Lamparter dd397dc9dd p54usb: rewriting rx/tx routines to make use of usb_anchor's facilities
Alan Stern found several flaws in p54usb's implementation and annotated:
"usb_kill_urb() and similar routines do not expect an URB's completion
routine to deallocate it.  This is almost obvious -- if the URB is deallocated
before the completion routine returns then there's no way for usb_kill_urb
to detect when the URB actually is complete."

This patch addresses all known limitations in the old implementation and fixes
khub's "use-after-freed" hang, when SLUB debug's poisoning option is enabled.

Christian Lamparter 9e7f3f8e4a p54: more definitions form lmac_longbow.h and pda.h
This patch ports more useful features to p54
  - PDR definitions for the synth chips & regulatory domain.
  - honour IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ flag, if it's set.
  - adds some lost mutex_lock & mutex_unlock.
  - replace two more "magic values" that sneaked past.

Christian Lamparter 9a8675d712 p54: introduce new names for device firmwares
Johannes thought it would have been a good idea to change the firmware names.

Note: we still have fallbacks in case our users don't want to "break their running system",
but we won't advertise them with MODULE_FIRMWARE.

John W. Linville 27df605ebe p54: integrate parts of lmac_longbow.h and other parts of stlc45xx
This patch removes most/all? of the "magic" numbers and unknown structure
variables inside the code and replaces them with meaningful prototypes.

(Plus a one line warning fix from Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>.)

Christian Lamparter b92f30d65a p54: fix memory management
We have to be careful if multiple "control frames" are passed in a very short intervals to
the device's firmware. As p54_assign_address always put them into same memory location.
To guarantee that this won't happen anymore, we have to treat control frames like normal
data frames in the devices own memory management.

Christian Lamparter 9de5776ff3 p54: p54: refactor p54_rx_frame_sent
the long names and the nesting in p54_rx_frame_sent really
became a "line longer than 80 characters" problem.

Johannes Berg e6a9854b05 mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API
So after the previous changes we were still unhappy with how
convoluted the API is and decided to make things simpler for
everybody. This completely changes the rate control API, now
taking into account 802.11n with MCS rates and more control,
most drivers don't support that though.
