e693a802f0 iwlwifi: rework iwl_scan_cancel_timeout
Since on timeout version of iwl_scan_cancel procedure we can sleep,
do not have to schedule abort_scan work to begin and perform scanning,
can do this directly. Also now, as we do not queue abort_scan from
restart work anymore, we can queue abort_scan to priv->workqueue.

Don't drop mutex when waiting for scan complete. Use STATUS_HW_SCAN bit
to check if scanning is currently pending, because STATUS_SCANNING will
be cleared only with priv->mutex taken.

cd44600fdd iwlwifi: report scan completion when abort fail
When we are not able to send abort command to firmware, notify mac80211

to assure we catch all failures cases.

d745d472af iwlwifi: cancel scan when down the device
Always cancel scan when stooping device and scan is currently pending,
we should newer have scan running after down device.

To assure we start scan cancel from restart work we have to schedule

d5926d9d6a iwlwifi: move scan completed flags handling
Move the scan completed flags handling so that we
can notify mac80211 about aborted scans with the

Rather than duplicating all the checks and even
in case of errors accepting the scan request

a24d52f390 iwlwifi: fix locking assertions
spin_is_locked() can return zero on some (UP?)
configurations because locks don't exist, and
that causes an endless amount of warnings. Use
lockdep_assert_held() instead, which has two
advantages:
 1) it verifies the current task is holding
    the lock or mutex
 2) it compiles away completely when lockdep
    is not enabled

d28232b461 iwlwifi: fix scan abort
Fix possible double priv->mutex lock introduced by commit
a69b03e941
"iwlwifi: cancel scan watchdog in iwl_bg_abort_scan" .
We can not call cancel_delayed_work_sync(&priv->scan_check) with
priv->mutex locked because workqueue function iwl_bg_scan_check()
take that lock internally.

We do not need to synchronize when canceling priv->scan_check work.
We can avoid races (sending double abort command or send no
command at all) using STATUS_SCAN_ABORT bit. Moreover
current iwl_bg_scan_check() code seems to be broken, as
we should not send abort commands when currently aborting.

073d5eab6f iwlwifi: fix internal scan race
It is possible for internal scan to race against itself if the device is
not returning the scan results from first requests. What happens in this
case is the cleanup done during the abort of the first internal scan also
cleans up part of the new scan, causing it to access memory it shouldn't.

Here are details:
* First internal scan is triggered and scan command sent to device.
* After seven seconds there is no scan results so the watchdog timer
  triggers a scan abort.
* The scan abort succeeds and a SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION is received for
 failed scan.
* During processing of SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION we clear STATUS_SCANNING
  and queue the "scan_completed" work.
** At this time, since the problem that caused the internal scan in first
   place is still present, a new internal scan is triggered.
The behavior at this point is a bit different between 2.6.34 and 2.6.35
since 2.6.35 has a lot of this synchronized. The rest of the race
description will thus be generalized.
** As part of preparing for the scan "is_internal_short_scan" is set to
true.
* At this point the completion work for fist scan is run. As part of this
  there is some locking missing around the "is_internal_short_scan"
  variable and it is set to "false".
** Now the second scan runs and it considers itself a real (not internal0
   scan and thus causes problems with wrong memory being accessed.

The fix is twofold.
* Since "is_internal_short_scan" should be protected by mutex, fix this in
  scan completion work so that changes to it can be serialized.
* Do not queue a new internal scan if one is in progress.

This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15824

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.

d28667f871 iwlwifi: avoid device type checking in generic code
Avoid checking for specified device type to perform certain function,
switch to .cfg approach as more generic and better implementation
method.

1382c71c76 Revert "iwlwifi: Send broadcast probe request only when asked to"
This reverts commit 21b2d8bd2f.

As explained by Johannes:
When we
build a probe request frame in the buffer with the SSID, we could
arrive over the limit of 200 bytes. When we build it in the buffer
without the SSID (wildcard) we don't arrive over 200 bytes, but the
ucode still allows direct probe in addition because it has an internal
buffer that is larger when it inserts the SSID...

bbcbb9ef97 iwlwifi: fix scan race
There is a problem if an "internal short scan" is in progress when a
mac80211 requested scan arrives. If this new scan request arrives within
the "next_scan_jiffies" period then driver will immediately return success
and complete the scan. The problem here is that the scan has not been
fully initialized at this time (is_internal_short_scan is still set to true
because of the currently running scan), which results in the scan
completion never to be sent to mac80211. At this time also, evan though the
internal short scan is still running the state (is_internal_short_scan)
will be set to false, so when the internal scan does complete then mac80211
will receive a scan completion.

Fix this by checking right away if a scan is in progress when a scan
request arrives from mac80211.

a93e7973d0 iwlwifi: multiple force reset mode
Provide the function to perform different type of uCode reset/reload operation.
When uCode detect error and can not fix itself, this iwl_force_reset()
function allow driver to perform the necessary reset/reload functions and help
to bring uCode back to normal operation state.

Currently only 2 type of force reset are available:
 - reset radio
 - reload firmware
