47ff65c487 iwlwifi: fix bugs in beacon configuration
When sending beacon commands to the uCode, we must
inform it of the offset in the beacon frame of the
TIM Element so it can transmit packets from the
correct queue. This functionality is implemented
in iwl_set_beacon_tim().

Fix a bug setting the rate_n_flags for the beacon
packet. First, it should not use the station table's
rate (it's a management frame), and second it needs
to properly configure the TX antennas.

Finally, also, clean up and comment relevant functions.

e43ab94d2e iwlagn: power up device before initializing EEPROM
A recent change optimized the power usage by the device by only powering it
up during EEPROM load if it is required (for OTP devices). This change causes
an error on the 1000 series devices during module load.

The error looks as follows:

Adding a dump_stack() to where that error is printed shows the following:

We know that the routines in this trace, iwlcore_eeprom_acquire_semaphore
and iwlcore_eeprom_verify_signature, only access CSR registers and thus do
not need the device to be awake if it is EEPROM. But for OTP it is required
for the device to be awake to read these registers. Ensure device is awake
before accessing these registers.

ae16fc3c31 iwlwifi: eliminate the possible 1/2 dBm tx power loss in 6x00 & 6x50 series
In both 6x00 and 6x50 series, the enhanced/extended tx power table in
EEPROM is used to set the max. tx power limit.
This new tx power table is in 1/2 dBm format, which creates an issue of
possibility of 1/2 dBm loss when driver set the tx power limit; because
of driver keep track and report the tx power in dBm format.

In order to prevent the 1/2 dBm loss, keep track of the true max tx
power in 1/2 dBm format in driver; do the comparison and adjust the tx
power if needed when send tx power command to uCode.

4d6ccbf57f iwl3945: Reset saved POWER_TABLE_CMD in "up"
Power-saving logic will not re-issue a POWER_TABLE_CMD if a new command
matches the prior one.  This can be bad if we re-start the device due to
e.g. uCode error; the new POWER_TABLE_CMD (required to invoke power-saving)
may match the prior POWER_TABLE_CMD issued before the uCode error.

Ensure the POWER_TABLE_CMD is sent to device when uCode is up.

ef8d5529b0 iwlwifi: update reply_statistics_cmd with 'clear' parameter
When issue REPLY_STATISTICS_CMD to uCode, two possible flag
can be set in the configuration flags

bit 0: Clear statistics
       0: Do not clear Statistics counters
       1: Clear to zero Statistics counters

Allow "clear" parameter to be set from the caller.

Add debugfs file to clear the statistics counters to help monitor and
debug the uCode behavior.

Thanks guys, here an updated version then, before linkwatch surgery ?

In this version, I force the event to be sent synchronously.

[PATCH net-next-2.6] linkwatch: linkwatch_forget_dev() to speedup device dismantle

time ip link del eth3.103 ; time ip link del eth3.104 ; time ip link del eth3.105

real	0m0.266s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.001s

real	0m0.770s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.000s

real	0m1.022s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.000s

One problem of current schem in vlan dismantle phase is the
holding of device done by following chain :

vlan_dev_stop() ->
	netif_carrier_off(dev) ->
		linkwatch_fire_event(dev) ->
			dev_hold() ...

And __linkwatch_run_queue() runs up to one second later...

A generic fix to this problem is to add a linkwatch_forget_dev() method
to unlink the device from the list of watched devices.

dev->link_watch_next becomes dev->link_watch_list (and use a bit more memory),
to be able to unlink device in O(1).

After patch :
time ip link del eth3.103 ; time ip link del eth3.104 ; time ip link del eth3.105

real    0m0.024s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.000s

real    0m0.032s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.001s

real    0m0.033s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.000s

395264d509 net: introduce NETDEV_UNREGISTER_PERNET
This new event is called once for each unique net namespace in batched
unregister operations (with the argument set to a random device from
that namespace) and once per device in non-batched unregister
operations.

It allows us to factorize some device unregister work such as clearing the
routing cache.

fccaf71011 macvlan: Precise RX stats accounting
With multi queue devices, its possible that several cpus call
macvlan RX routines simultaneously for the same macvlan device.

We update RX stats counter without any locking, so we can
get slightly wrong counters.

One possible fix is to use percpu counters, to get precise
accounting and also get guarantee of no cache line ping pongs
between cpus.

Note: this adds 16 bytes (32 bytes on 64bit arches) of percpu
data per macvlan device.

znet was including "wireless/i82593.h" (which is a bit wierd), and I
missed that when I relocated i82593.h to drivers/staging/wavelan.  Since
I don't have ISA turned-on in my normal .config, I didn't see the build
failures -- mea culpa!

115924b6bd net: Getting rid of the x86 dependency to built vmxnet3
This patch removes config dependency on x86 to build vmxnet3 driver. Thus
the driver can be built on big endian architectures now. Although vmxnet3
is not supported on VMs other than x86 architecture, all this code goes in
to ensure correctness. If the code is not dependent on x86, it should not
assume little endian architecture in any of its operations.

but it should be called for such sockets as well
since they might _also_ be used for sending and
not solely for receiving multicast. We will need
that for nl80211 (generic netlink sockets) in the
future.
