WUS-201), which works with the zd1211rw driver with the following device
id definition.

ea0c925370 mac80211: Only flush workqueue when last interface was removed
Currently the ieee80211_hw->workqueue is flushed each time
an interface is being removed. However most scheduled work
is not interface specific but device specific, for example things like
periodic work for link tuners.

This patch will move the flush_workqueue() call to directly behind
the call to ops->stop() to make sure the workqueue is only flushed
when all interfaces are gone and there really shouldn't be any scheduled
work in the drivers left.

Putting netif_carrier_on before configuring the driver/device with the

0ff1cca0e2 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-3945.c Fix type issue on 64bit
Coverity CID: 2265 NEGATIVE_RETURNS

"rate" is of an unsigned type, and the code requires a signed type.
The following patch makes it so.

7f2d38eb7a can: add sanity checks
Even though the CAN netlayer only deals with CAN netdevices, the 
netlayer interface to the userspace and to the device layer should 
perform some sanity checks.

This patch adds several sanity checks that mainly prevent userspace apps 
to send broken content into the system that may be misinterpreted by 
some other userspace application.

This is caused by the following snippet in nv_set_settings:

	netif_carrier_off(dev);
	if (netif_running(dev)) {
		nv_disable_irq(dev);
		netif_tx_lock_bh(dev);
		spin_lock(&np->lock);
		/* stop engines */
		nv_stop_rxtx(dev);
		spin_unlock(&np->lock);
		netif_tx_unlock_bh(dev);
	}

Because of nv_disable_irq this is probably not really a problem
though (I guess) and replacing the spin_lock with spin_lock_irqsave
could keep interrupts disabled for a longer period of time because
of delays in nv_stop_rx and nv_stop_tx.

54364b752e Add missing skb->dev assignment in Frame Relay RX code
Commit 4c13eb6657 ([ETH]: Make
eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans) removed
skb->dev assignment from hdlc_fr.c:fr_rx(). Unfortunately it was also
needed for cases other than eth_type_trans().

Adding it back.

It's quite serious and may be a security risk as it causes a wrong
input interface indication (the physical hdlcX instead of logical
pvcX). Probably -stable class fix.

ab1b20467c bridge: fix use-after-free in br_cleanup_bridges()
Unregistering a bridge device may cause virtual devices stacked on the
bridge, like vlan or macvlan devices, to be unregistered as well.
br_cleanup_bridges() uses for_each_netdev_safe() to iterate over all
devices during cleanup. This is not enough however, if one of the
additionally unregistered devices is next in the list to the bridge
device, it will get freed as well and the iteration continues on
the freed element.

Restart iteration after each bridge device removal from the beginning to
fix this, similar to what rtnl_link_unregister() does.

ec04fd60fd iwlwifi: fix incorrect 5GHz rates reported in monitor mode
This patch fixes the rates reported in monitor mode operation
(Wireshark) for iwlwifi.

Previously, packets with rates of 6M..24M would be reported
incorrectly and packets with rates of 36M..54M would not passed
up the stack.

a13307cef8 PCI: acpiphp: cleanup notify handler on all root bridges
During the development of the physical PCI slot patch series, Gary Hade
kept on reporting strange oopses due to interactions between pci_slot
and acpiphp.

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/28/319

find_root_bridges() unconditionally installs
handle_hotplug_event_bridge() as an ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY handler for all
root bridges.

However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the
notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly
underneath. That is:

	root bridge -> hotplug slot

But, if the topology looks like either of the following:

	root bridge -> non-hotplug slot
	root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slot

Then we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root
bridge.

This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets
loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a
hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify
handler and we blow up.

Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.

99cb233d60 PCI: Limit VPD read/write lengths for Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev.
For Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev. A nics, any read beyond the
VPD end tag will hang the device.  This problem was initially
observed when a vpd entry was created in sysfs
('/sys/bus/pci/devices/<id>/vpd').   A read to this sysfs entry
will dump 32k of data.  Reading a full 32k will cause an access
beyond the VPD end tag causing the device to hang.  Once the device
is hung, the bnx2 driver will not be able to reset the device.
We believe that it is legal to read beyond the end tag and
therefore the solution is to limit the read/write length.

A majority of this patch is from Matthew Wilcox who gave code for
reworking the PCI vpd size information.  A PCI quirk added for the
Broadcom NIC's to limit the read/write's.

06f3ed23b1 V4L/DVB (8178): uvc: Fix compilation breakage for the other drivers, if uvc is selected
UVC makefile defines obj as:
	obj-$(CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS) := uvcvideo.o
Instead of:
	obj-$(CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS) += uvcvideo.o

Due to that, if uvc is selected, all obj-y or obj-m that were added to
compilation were forget. This breaks a proper kernel build.

93b3cff991 netdevice: Fix wrong string handle in kernel command line parsing
v1->v2: Use strlcpy() to ensure s[i].name be null-termination.

1. In netdev_boot_setup_add(), a long name will leak.
   ex. : dev=21,0x1234,0x1234,0x2345,eth123456789verylongname.........
2. In netdev_boot_setup_check(), mismatch will happen if s[i].name
   is a substring of dev->name.
   ex. : dev=...eth1 dev=...eth11
