The function
- increments dropped rx_packet count if status code
passed to it is "-1".
- frees SKB buffer.
But currently the function is being called with "0" status code.
This patch replaces above function by dev_kfree_skb_any() call.

The structure definition is
struct mwifiex_opt_sleep_confirm_buffer {
u8 hdr[4];
struct mwifiex_opt_sleep_confirm ps_cfm_sleep;
} __packed;
For sleep_confirm command we already reserve 4 bytes (using skb_reserve())
for an interface header. It will be filled later by interface specific code.
We don't need "hdr[4]" element in above structure. So we can use
"struct mwifiex_opt_sleep_confirm" directly instead of
"struct mwifiex_opt_sleep_confirm_buffer".

With driver rtl8192de, the sizes will be 256 and 256 * 4 respectively. As that
will make the 2D array be 2048 bytes, I have changed the code to use kmalloc to

The function iwl_is_any_associated() was intended
to check both contexts, but due to an oversight
it only checks the BSS context. This leads to a
problem with scanning since the passive dwell
time isn't restricted appropriately and a scan
that includes passive channels will never finish
if only the PAN context is associated since the
default dwell time of 120ms won't fit into the
normal 100 TU DTIM interval.
Fix the function by using for_each_context() and
also reorganise the other functions a bit to take
advantage of each other making the code easier to
read.

so should be considered as regression after:

That commit claim that mac80211 will not use non-IBSS channel in IBSS

mac80211, but that will require more work, so better to apply that patch
temporally, and provide proper mac80211 fix latter.

during suspend/S3 state drv_flush is called from mac80211 irrespective of
interface count. In ath9k we queue a work in ath9k_flush which we expect
to be cancelled in the drv_stop call back. during suspend process mac80211
calls drv_stop only when the interface count(local->count) is non-zero.
unfortunately when the network manager is enabled, drv_flush is called
while drv_stop is not called as local->count reaches '0'.
So fix this by simply checking for the device presence in the
drv_flush call back in the driver before queueing work or anything else.

This patch adds the feature to support the test mode operation through
the generic netlink channel NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE between intel
wireless device iwlwifi and the user space application svtool.
The main purpose is to create a transportation layer between the iwlwifi
device and the user space application so that the interaction between the
user space application svtool and the iwlwifi device in the kernel space is
in a way of generic netlink messaging.
The detail specific functions are:
1. The function iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to digest the svtool test command
from the user space application. The svtool test commands are categorized to
three types : commands to be processed by the device ucode, commands to access
the registers, and commands to be processed at the driver level(such as reload
the ucode). iwl_testmode_cmd() dispatches the commands the corresponding handlers
and reply to user space regarding the command execution status. Extra data is
returned to the user space application if there's any.
2. The function iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is added to multicast all the spontaneous
messages from the iwlwifi device to the user space. Regardless the message types,
whenever there is a valid spontaneous message received by the iwlwifi ISR,
iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is invoked to multicast the message content to user
space. The message content is not attacked and the message parsing is left to
the user space application.
Implementation guidelines:
1. The generic netlink messaging for iwliwif test mode is through NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE
channel, therefore, the codes need to follow the regulations set by cfg80211.ko
to get the actual device instance ieee80211_ops via cfg80211.ko, so that the iwlwifi
device is indicated with ieee80211_ops and can be actually accessed.
Therefore, a callback iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to the structure
iwlagn_hw_ops in iwl-agn.c.
2. It intends to utilize those low level device access APIs from iwlwifi device driver
(ie. iwlagn.ko) rather than creating it's own set of device access functions.
For example, iwl_send_cmd(), iwl_read32(), iwl_write8(), and iwl_write32() are reused.
3. The main functions are maintained in new files instead of spreading all over the
existing iwlwifi driver files.
The new files added are :
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-sv-open.c
- to handle the user space test mode application command
and reply the respective command status to the user space application.
- to multicast the spontaneous messages from device to user space.
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-testmode.h
- the commonly referenced definitions for the TLVs used in
the generic netlink messages
