3a8fede115 mwifiex: restart rxreorder timer correctly
During 11n RX reordering, if there is a hole in RX table,
driver will not send packets to kernel until the rxreorder
timer expires or the table is full.
However, currently driver always restarts rxreorder timer when
receiving a packet, which causes the timer hardly to expire.
So while connected with to 11n AP in a busy environment,
ping packets may get blocked for about 30 seconds.

This patch fixes this timer restarting by ensuring rxreorder timer
would only be restarted either timer is not set or start_win
has changed.

iwl_poll_bit may return a strictly positive value when the
poll doesn't match on the first try.
This was caught when WoWLAN started failing upon resume
even if the poll_bit actually succeeded.

Also change a wrong print. If we reach the end of
iwl_pcie_prepare_card_hw, it means that we couldn't
get the devices.

a0855054e5 iwlwifi: dvm: drop non VO frames when flushing
When mac80211 wants to ensure that a frame is sent, it calls
the flush() callback. Until now, iwldvm implemented this by
waiting that all the frames are sent (ACKed or timeout).
In case of weak signal, this can take a significant amount
of time, delaying the next connection (in case of roaming).
Many users have reported that the flush would take too long
leading to the following error messages to be printed:

iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues Q 2
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Current SW read_ptr 161 write_ptr 201
iwl data: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fe ff 01 00 00 00 00 00
[snip]
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: FH TRBs(0) = 0x00000000
[snip]
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Q 0 is active and mapped to fifo 3 ra_tid 0x0000 [9,9]
[snip]

Instead of waiting for these packets, simply drop them. This
significantly improves the responsiveness of the network.
Note that all the queues are flushed, but the VO one. This
is not typically used by the applications and it likely
contains management frames that are useful for connection
or roaming.

This bug is tracked here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56581

But it is duplicated in distributions' trackers.
A simple search in Ubuntu's database led to these bugs:

Don't add the time event to the list. We added it several

Since we (currently) don't support more than one ROC for STA
vif at a time, enforce this and don't add the time event
to any list.

We were also missing the locking of the mutex which led to

rtl92c_set_fw_rsvdpagepkt is used by rtl8192cu and its pci sibling rtl8192ce.
rtl_cmd_send_packet crashes when called inside rtl8192cu because it works on
memory allocated only by rtl8192ce.
Fix the crash by calling a dummy function when used in rtl8192cu.
Comparision with the realtek vendor driver makes me think, something is missing in
the dummy function.

94e0590077 ath: use CTL region from cfg80211 if unset in EEPROM
Many AP devices do not have the proper regulatory domain programmed in
EEPROM. Instead they expect the software to set the appropriate region.
For these devices, the country code defaults to US, and the driver uses
the US CTL tables as well.
On devices bought in Europe this can lead to tx power being set too high
on the band edges, even if the cfg80211 regdomain is set correctly.
Fix this issue by taking into account the DFS region, but only when the
EEPROM regdomain is set to default.

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-10-09

Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.18 stream!

Andrea Merello makes rtl818x_pci use a more reasonable transmission
rate for HW generated frames.

Fabian Frederick tweaks some kernel-doc bits to avoid warnings.

Larry Finger corrects a possible unaligned access in the rtlwifi code.

Marek Puzyniak avoids a kernel panic in ath9k_hw_reset.

Sujith Manoharan goes for the hat trick -- he fixes a smatch warning
in the shared ath code, he fixes a crash in ath9k, and he corrects
a sequence number assignment problem in ath9k too.

For ease of merging, I pulled the last bits of the wireless tree as well...

Please let me know if there are problems!

35a9ad8af0 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Most notable changes in here:

   1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
      contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit.  This is
      the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
      several individuals.

      Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
      skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
      telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.

      skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
      call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.

      There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
      packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
      software is now done with no locks held.

      Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
      be used to test a multi-send implementation.

      Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
      virtio_net

      Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
      support this optimization soon.

      I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
      Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
      Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
      David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.

   2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.

   3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
      ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver.  From
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan.

   4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
      driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
      Florian Fainelli.

   5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
      to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
      into pools of pages.  The objective is to get exactly the
      necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
      but no more.  The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
      From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
      by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
      Dumazet.

   6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
      encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility.  From Tom
      Herbert.

   7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
      Fainelli.

   8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
      testsuite.  Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.

   9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
      areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators.  From John
      Fastabend.

  10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
      Duyck.

  11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
      Dumazet.

  12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
      Florian Westphal.

  13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
      faster.  From Eric Dumazet"

1fca350b76 rtlwifi: Fix possible unaligned array in ether_addr_copy()
Two macros used to copy BSSID information use ether_addr_copy(), thus
the arrays must be 2-byte aligned. In one case, the array could become
unaligned if the struct containing it were changed. Use the __unaligned(2)
attribute to retain the necessary alignment. In addition, the magic number
used to specify the size of the array is replaced by ETH_ALEN.

ca14405e3b ath9k: Fix sequence number assignment
Currently, ath9k uses a global counter for all
frames that need to be assigned a sequence number.
QoS-data frames are handled properly since they
have a per-tid counter. But, beacons and other
management frames use the same counter even if
multiple interfaces or contexts are present.

Fix this issue by making the counter per-interface
and using it when mac80211 sets IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ.

b18111d911 ath9k: Fix crash in MCC mode
When a channel context is removed, the hw_queue_base
is set to -1, this will result in a panic because
ath9k_chanctx_stop_queues() can be called on an interface
that is not assigned to any context yet - for example,
when trying to scan.

Fix this issue by setting the hw_queue_base to zero

79ee65659e rtl818x_pci: fix response rate may be incorrect.
Currently the allowed "respose rate" set (rates for HW generated frames
like ACKs) is the same as the basic rate set.

The HW will use the higher allowed response rate that is lower than the
rate of the received frame.

This is more or less what IEEE80211 mandates, but I missed the fact
that IEEE80211 also says that whenever it happens that for a modulation
class there is no any rate in the basic rates set, then the response rate
set shall include also all the mandatory rates for that modulation class.

This patch adds mandatory OFDM rates to the allowed response rate set if
no OFDM rate is included in the basic rate set.

Depending by the AP, I faced cases in which this patch seems to cause a
noticeable perfomance improvement.

- With my usual test AP there is no particular perfomance difference.
- With a prism54/hostapd AP this patch causes RX thoughput increase from
  about 5Mbps to about 20Mbps.

Hopefully this patch may help people that faced performance regression wrt
the old staging driver.

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-10-03

Please pull tihs batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream!

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"I have here a few things that depend on the latest mac80211's changes:
RRM, TPC, Quiet Period etc...  Eyal keeps improving our rate control
and we have a new device ID. This last patch should probably have
gone to wireless.git, but at that stage, I preferred to send it to
-next and CC stable."

For (most of) the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"The only new feature is testmode support from me. Ben added a new method
to crash the firmware with an assert for debug purposes. As usual, we
have lots of smaller fixes from Michal. Matteo fixed a Kconfig
dependency with debugfs. I fixed some warnings recently added to
checkpatch."

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"We've had major updates for TI and ST Microelectronics drivers, and a
few NCI related changes.

For TI's trf7970a driver:

- Target mode support for trf7970a
- Suspend/resume support for trf7970a
- DT properties additions to handle different quirks
- A bunch of fixes for smartphone IOP related issues

For ST Microelectronics' ST21NFCA and ST21NFCB drivers:

- ISO15693 support for st21nfcb
- checkpatch and sparse related warning fixes
- Code cleanups and a few minor fixes

Finally, Marvell added ISO15693 support to the NCI stack, together with a
couple of NCI fixes."

For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:

"This 3.18 pull request replaces the one I did on Monday ("bluetooth-next
2014-09-22", which hasn't been pulled yet). The additions since the last
request are:

 - SCO connection fix for devices not supporting eSCO
 - Cleanups regarding the SCO establishment logic
 - Remove unnecessary return value from logging functions
 - Header compression fix for 6lowpan
 - Cleanups to the ieee802154/mrf24j40 driver

Here's a copy from previous request that this one replaces:

'
Here are some more patches for 3.18. They include various fixes to the
btusb HCI driver, a fix for LE SMP, as well as adding Jukka to the
MAINTAINERS file for generic 6LoWPAN (as requested by Alexander Aring).

I've held on to this pull request a bit since we were waiting for a SCO
related fix to get sorted out first. However, since the merge window is
getting closer I decided not to wait for it. If we do get the fix sorted
out there'll probably be a second small pull request later this week.
'"

And,

"Unless 3.17 gets delayed this will probably be our last -next pull request for
3.18. We've got:

  - New Marvell hardware supportr
  - Multicast support for 6lowpan
  - Several of 6lowpan fixes & cleanups
  - Fix for a (false-positive) lockdep warning in L2CAP
  - Minor btusb cleanup"

On top of all that comes the usual sort of updates to ath5k, ath9k,
ath10k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, and wil6210.  This time around there are
also a number of rtlwifi updates to enable some new hardware and
to reconcile the in-kernel drivers with some newer releases of the
Realtek vendor drivers.  Also of note is some device tree work for
the bcma bus.

Please let me know if there are problems!

5ba8d9d2f0 ath9k: Fix queue handling for channel contexts
When a full chip reset is done, all the queues
across all VIFs are stopped, but if MCC is enabled,
only the queues of the current context is awakened,
when we complete the reset.

This results in unfairness for the inactive context.
Since frames are queued internally in the driver if
there is a context mismatch, we can awaken all the
queues when coming out of a reset.

The VIF-specific queues are still used in flow control,
to ensure fairness when traffic is high.
