2f2f8f2a35 Revert "p54pci: Add PCI ID for SMC2802W"
This reverts commit 5f7aebd845.

Apparently, that PCI ID data was incorrectly taken from the subsystem
information.  The actual ID matches another already known ID.

5f1e83dbc3 p54spi: replace internal "cx3110x" name with "p54spi"
While the comment removed in this patch claims board_n800.c uses
"cx3110x", it was never merged to mainline like this.  Mainlined board
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
without this change.  Tested against my Nokia N810.

a4b770972b drivers/net: Remove unnecessary returns from void function()s
This patch removes from drivers/net/ all the unnecessary
return; statements that precede the last closing brace of
void functions.

It does not remove the returns that are immediately
preceded by a label as gcc doesn't like that.

It also does not remove null void functions with return.

Done via:
$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -l "return;\n}" net/ | \
  xargs perl -i -e 'local $/ ; while (<>) { s/\n[ \t\n]+return;\n}/\n}/g; print; }'

with some cleanups by hand.

Quote from comment #17:
"The problem is the innocent looking moving of the tx processing to
 after the rx processing in the tasklet. Quoting from the changelog:
  This patch does it the same way, except that it also prioritize
  rx data processing, simply because tx routines *can* wait.

 This is causing an issue with us referencing already freed memory,
 because some skb's we transmit, we immediately receive back, such
 as those for reading the eeprom (*) and getting stats.

 What can happen because of the moving of the tx processing to after
 the rx processing is that when the tasklet first runs after doing a
 special skb tx (such as eeprom) we've already received the answer
 to it.

 Then the rx processing ends up calling p54_find_and_unlink_skb to
 find the matching tx skb for the just received special rx skb and
 frees the tx skb.

 Then after the processing of the rx skb answer, and thus freeing
 the tx skb, we go process the completed tx ring entires, and then
 dereference the free-ed skb, to see if it should free free-ed by
 p54p_check_tx_ring()."

there are two ring indices. 1 => tx data and 3 => tx management.
But the old code had a constant "1" and this resulted in spurious

5988f385b4 p54pci: prevent stuck rx-ring on slow system
This patch fixes an old problem, which - under certain
circumstances - could cause the device to become
unresponsive.

most of p54pci's rx-ring management is implemented in just
two distinct standalone functions. p54p_check_rx_ring takes
care of processing incoming data, while p54p_refill_rx_ring
tries to replenish all depleted communication buffers.

This has always worked fine on my fast machine, but
now I know there is a hidden race...

The most likely candidate here is ring_control->device_idx.
Quintin Pitts had already analyzed the culprit and posted
a patch back in Oct 2009. But sadly, no one's picked up on this.
( https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/53079/ [2 & 3] ).
This patch does the same way, except that it also prioritize
rx data processing, simply because tx routines *can* wait.

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.

97e93fcd86 p54: remove get_tx_stats() mac80211 op
get_tx_stats() will be removed from mac80211.

p54 uses struct ieee80211_tx_queue_stats also internally, so create a new
identical struct p54_tx_queue_stats which the driver can use.

Compile-tested only.

b92f7d3083 p54pci: revise tx locking
This patch continues the effort which began with:
"[PATCH] p54pci: move tx cleanup into tasklet".

Thanks to these changes, p54pci's interrupt & tx
cleanup routines can be made lock-less.

d713804c60 p54pci: move tx cleanup into tasklet
This patch moves the tx cleanup routines out of the critical
interrupt context and into the (previously known as rx) tasklet.

The main goal of this operation is to remove the extensive
usage of spin_lock_irqsaves in the generic p54common library.

The next step would be to modify p54usb to do the
rx processing inside a tasklet (just like usbnet).

f5300e04df p54pci: rx frame length check
A long time ago, a user reported several crashes due to
data corruptions which are likely the result of a
not-100%-supported, or faulty? PCI bridge.
( http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/53004/ )

This patch fixes entry #1.
"1.  p54p_check_rx_ring - skb_over_panic: Under a ping flood
or just left running for a bit would panic with a skb_over_panic."
As described in the mail: The invalid frame length causes
skb_put to bailout and trigger a crash.

Note:
Simply dropping the frame is problematic, because if its content
contains a tx feedback we would lose some portion of the device
memory space.... And the driver/mac80211 should handle all other
invalid data.
