14f92952bf ssb: add dma_dev to ssb_device structure
Add dma_dev, a pointer to struct device, to struct ssb_device.  We pass it
to the generic DMA API with SSB_BUSTYPE_PCI and SSB_BUSTYPE_SSB.
ssb_devices_register() sets up it properly.

This is preparation for replacing the ssb bus specific DMA API (ssb_dma_*)
with the generic DMA API.

9e55ba7bc2 ath9k: Fix bug in rate table
The following commit added an entry in 11na and 11ng rate
table but missed to update its rate count field. This
inconsistency between the rate count and the actual number
of rates in the table will leave out the final rate entry
(mcs15 with half gi in ht40) while forming the valid
rate indices. Not having mcs15+shortGI in ht40 will have
a performance impact (on max throughput) of about 10% both
in nght40 and naht40 mode.

While the comment removed in this patch claims board_n800.c uses

files for Nokia N8x0 devices are expected "p54spi", and thus don't
work because the modalias is "cx3110x".  To my knowledge, these
devices are the only real-world use of p54spi, and will not work

8b9a4e6e44 mac80211: process station blockack action frames from work
Processing an association response could take a bit
of time while we set up the hardware etc. During that
time, the AP might already send a blockack request.
If this happens very quickly on a fairly slow machine,
we can end up processing the blockack request before
the association processing has finished. Since the
blockack processing cannot sleep right now, we also
cannot make it wait in the driver.

As a result, sometimes on slow machines the iwlagn
driver gets totally confused, and no traffic can pass
when the aggregation setup was done before the assoc
setup completed.

I'm working on a proper fix for this, which involves
queuing all blockack category action frames from a
work struct, and also allowing the ampdu_action driver
callback to sleep, which will generally clean up the
code and make things easier.

However, this is a very involved and complex change.
To fix the problem at hand in a way that can also be
backported to stable, I've come up with this patch.
Here, I simply process all aggregation action frames
from the managed interface skb queue, which means
their processing will be serialized with processing
the association response, thereby fixing the problem.

9d1ac34ec3 ssb: Handle alternate SSPROM location

between dma mapping and dma unmapping, we should use
dma_sync_single_for_cpu to sync the buffer between cpu with

device gain the buffer again.

84642d6bdd ath9k: fix queue stop/start based on the number of pending frames
Because there is a limited number of tx buffers available, once the
queue has been filled to a certain point, ath9k needs to stop accepting
new frames from mac80211. In order to prevent a full WMM queue from
stopping another queue with fewer frames, this patch limits the number
of queued frames to a quarter of the total available tx buffers, minus
some reserved frames to be used for other purposes (e.g. beacons).

Because tx buffers are reserved for frames when they're staged in
software queues as well, the actual queue depth cannot be used for
this, so this patch stores a reference to the tx queue in the ath_buf
struct and keeps track of the total number of pending frames.

881ac6a535 ath9k_htc: Revamp CONF_IDLE handling
This patch revamps IDLE power save handling in the driver.
Two separate functions (radio enable/disable) are introduced,
because the semantics of radio handling is just not the same
as the start()/stop() callbacks. For example, the HW must not
be disabled, instead, the PHY has to be disabled in radio_disable().
Also, the HW has to be reset properly in radio enable/disable and
certain registers have to be programmed only once, in the
start() callback.

The radio_enable() routine doesn't need the PS wrappers since
we set the HW power mode to AWAKE anyway before calling it.

Rather than doing a series of RMWs, calculate the
value to be written to the register in question and
do a single REGWRITE. This improves bringup time.

This depends on the analog_shiftreg configuration option,
which is currently buggy. For AP mode, a delay of 100us
has to be the default. For station mode, this knob has to
be enabled on a per-case basis, though it is a little
unclear on when to enable a delay. This can be fixed later though.

e0961f112c mac80211: remove useless work starting
Ever since we use only cfg80211 for configuration,
there is no configuration that could be pending at
this point, cfg80211 will have the configuration
that is pending and apply it afterwards.

761ab47036 mac80211: move WEP weak IV check
I suspect the compiler will do this optimisation
anyway, but it seems cleaner to move this into
the WEP switch case.

Also make rx_h_decrypt use a local variable for
the frame_control so that we don't need to reload
the hdr variable for this after linearizing.

6a8579d0e6 mac80211: clean up ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session
There's no sense in letting anything but internal
mac80211 functions set the initiator to anything
but WLAN_BACK_INITIATOR, since WLAN_BACK_RECIPIENT
is only valid when we have received a frame from
the peer, which we react to directly in mac80211.

The debugfs code I recently added got this wrong
as well.

2b2c009ecf mac80211: Add support for hardware ARP query filtering
Some hardware allow extended filtering of ARP frames not intended for
the host. To perform such filtering, the hardware needs to know the current
IP address(es) of the host, bound to its interface.

Add support for ARP filtering to mac80211 by adding a new op to the driver
interface, allowing to configure the current IP addresses. This op is called
upon association with the currently configured address(es), and when
associated whenever the IP address(es) change.

This patch adds configuration of IPv4 addresses only, as IPv6 addresses don't
need ARP filtering.

095dfdb0c4 mac80211: remove tx status ampdu_ack_map
There's a single use of this struct member, but
as it is write-only it clearly not necessary.
Thus we can free up some space here, even if we
don't need it right now it seems pointless to
carry around the variable.

3a4d4aa2d3 mac80211: remove bogus mod_timer() call
The IBSS code has a bogus mod_timer(..., 0) call,
we shouldn't ever pass a constant value to the
function since any constant value could be in the
future or the past.

However, invoking the timer here is not necessary
at all, since we just finished scanning and just
need to have the IBSS code run again from the
workqueue later, so factor out the work starting
and use that instead.
