Merge tag 'mac80211-next-for-davem-2015-04-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next

Johannes Berg says:

====================
There isn't much left, but we have
 * new mac80211 internal software queue to allow drivers to have
   shorter hardware queues and pull on-demand
 * use rhashtable for mac80211 station table
 * minstrel rate control debug improvements and some refactoring
 * fix noisy message about TX power reduction
 * fix continuous message printing and activity if CRDA doesn't respond
 * fix VHT-related capabilities with "iw connect" or "iwconfig ..."
 * fix Kconfig for cfg80211 wireless extensions compatibility
====================

/**
* DOC: mac80211 software tx queueing
*
* mac80211 provides an optional intermediate queueing implementation designed
* to allow the driver to keep hardware queues short and provide some fairness
* between different stations/interfaces.
* In this model, the driver pulls data frames from the mac80211 queue instead
* of letting mac80211 push them via drv_tx().
* Other frames (e.g. control or management) are still pushed using drv_tx().
*
* Drivers indicate that they use this model by implementing the .wake_tx_queue
* driver operation.
*
* Intermediate queues (struct ieee80211_txq) are kept per-sta per-tid, with a
* single per-vif queue for multicast data frames.
*
* The driver is expected to initialize its private per-queue data for stations
* and interfaces in the .add_interface and .sta_add ops.
*
* The driver can't access the queue directly. To dequeue a frame, it calls
* ieee80211_tx_dequeue(). Whenever mac80211 adds a new frame to a queue, it
* calls the .wake_tx_queue driver op.
*
* For AP powersave TIM handling, the driver only needs to indicate if it has
* buffered packets in the driver specific data structures by calling
* ieee80211_sta_set_buffered(). For frames buffered in the ieee80211_txq
* struct, mac80211 sets the appropriate TIM PVB bits and calls
* .release_buffered_frames().
* In that callback the driver is therefore expected to release its own
* buffered frames and afterwards also frames from the ieee80211_txq (obtained
* via the usual ieee80211_tx_dequeue).
