5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Because DTIM information is required for powersave
but is only conveyed in beacons, wait for a beacon
before enabling powersave, and change the way the
information is conveyed to the driver accordingly.

mwl8k doesn't currently seem to implement PS but

ee0ddf1865 mwl8k: enable multi-BSS AP operation
As follows:
- GET_HW_SPEC is now responsible for setting
  priv->{ap,sta}_macids_supported, which are bitmasks of supported
  macids for AP and STA mode.  (Typically, STA firmware images will
  support only one macid, #0, in STA mode, and AP firmware images
  will support macids #0-7, in AP mode.)
- Our wiphy ->interfaces_modes is now set based on the non-zero-ness
  of these two bitmasks.
- We main priv->macids_used, a bitmask of which macids are currently
  in use.  ->add_interface() will assign the lowest free macid for
  this interface type as it is created, or bail out if there are no
  more free macids to assign.  ->delete_interface() will mark the
  macid as being free again.

This enables the multi-BSS code added in the previous commits.

f57ca9c1af mwl8k: prepare for posting per-vif firmware commands
One of the bytes in the mwl8k firmware command header is the 'macid'
byte, which for per-vif commands indicates which of the BSSes this
command is intended for.  (For commands that are not per-vif commands,
this byte can just be 0.)

This patch adds mwl8k_post_pervif_cmd(), which will take the macid
assigned to this interface (to be done in ->add_interface()), copy it
into the command packet macid field, and post the command as usual.

8707d02625 mwl8k: handle 5 GHz legacy rate bitmaps in firmware commands
Whenever mac80211 gives us a legacy rate bitmap in the context of the
5 GHz band, we need to remember to shift the bitmap left by 5 positions
before giving it to the firmware, as the firmware follows the bitmap
bit assignment of the 2.4 GHz rate table even if we're on the 5 GHz
band, and the 2.4 GHz rate table includes five non-OFDM rates at the
start that are not valid in the 5 GHz band.

854783444b mwl8k: properly set receive status rate index on 5 GHz receive
The mwl8k firmware uses indices into the 2.4 GHz band rate table for
the receive descriptor channel field even if the packet was received
on a 5 GHz channel, while mac80211 expects an index into the 5 GHz
band rate table when packets are received on the 5 GHz band, which
presents a mismatch as the 5 GHz band rate table lacks the five
non-OFDM rates that the 2.4 GHz rate table starts with.

To handle this properly, we need to substract 5 from the rate index
field if the packet was received on a 5 GHz channel (and was not
received at an MCS rate).

avoid having to touch the interrupt mask registers.)

1e9f9de3b1 mwl8k: keep TX_DONE interrupt masked while transmit reclaim is running
By making use of the CLEAR_SEL feature of the mwl8k host interface
interrupt controller, we can keep the TX_DONE interrupt source masked
while the transmit reclaim tasklet is running (NAPI style) without
having to touch the interrupt controller's interrupt mask register
when entering or exiting polling mode, and without having to do any
more register reads/writes than we do now.

When CLEAR_SEL is enabled on the TX_DONE interrupt source, reading
the interrupt status register will clear the TX_DONE status bit if
it was set, allowing it to be set again if a new TX_DONE event arrives
while we are running the TX reclaim tasklet, but such a new event will
then not trigger another PCI interrupt until a zero is written to the
TX_DONE interrupt status register bit.

I.e., if we write a zero to the TX_DONE interrupt source bit in the
interrupt status register when the TX reclaim tasklet thinks it's
done, a PCI interrupt will be triggered if a new TX_DONE event arrived
from the hardware between us deciding that there is no more work to do
and re-enabling the TX_DONE interrupt source, thereby avoiding the
classic NAPI poll mode exit race that would otherwise occur.

While it is reasonable to expect that at least one transmit ring entry
will be processed per second while we are waiting for the transmit
rings to drain, the firmware can end up doing batching of transmit ring

for more than a second at a time.

this.

c3cbbe8a5c mwl8k: fix changed flags handling in mwl8k_bss_info_changed()
Previously, mwl8k_bss_info_changed() would refuse to do anything if
the 'changed' argument indicated that the association status hadn't
changed.  Fix this up so that it will allow changing things like the
preamble type, the slot time and the CTS-to-self protection method
without having to reassociate.

c6e9601071 mwl8k: honor peer rate set
When calling SET_RATE, SET_AID, or when creating a station database
entry for our AP, pass in the AP's rate set instead of just blindly
enabling all legacy rates, so as to end up doing the right thing when
talking to 11b-only APs.

a680400e8a mwl8k: move ->peer_id from mwl8k_vif to mwl8k_sta
For STA firmware, move the per-peer hardware station ID to the
driver-private part of struct ieee80211_sta, where it belongs.

(Since issuing a hardware station database maintenance command sleeps,
we can't hold a reference to the ieee80211_sta * across the command,
and since we won't know the station ID until after the command
completes, we need to re-lookup the sta when the command is done to
write the returned station ID back to its driver-private part.)

bbfd9128d3 mwl8k: handle station database update for AP's sta entry via ->sta_notify()
Inserting and removing a hardware station database entry for the AP
when we are in managed mode is currently done in ->bss_info_changed().

To prepare for adding AP mode support, implement the ->sta_notify()
driver method, and let that handle inserting and removing the hardware
station database entry for our AP instead.
