03bffc1341 wireless: make drivers include the TSF RX flag where appropriate
These drivers pass full mactime information to the stack, make them
indicate this via the new RX_FLAG_TSFT to get mac80211 to show this
information in monitor mode.

374fdfbc67 introduce WEXT scan capabilities
Introduce scan capabilities to WEXT so that userspace can do intelligent
things with scan behavior such as handling hidden SSIDs more gracefully.
If the driver reports a specific scan capability, the driver must
respect the options specified in the iw_scan_req structure when handling
the SIOCSIWSCAN call, unless it's mode or state does not allow it to do
so, in which case it must return an error.

This version switches to Dave Kilroy's suggestion of claiming unused
padding space for the scan_capa field.

d7d32c815b HID: Refactor MS Presenter 8K key mapping
Following the suggestion of Jonas, this patch maps the special keys of
the MS Presenter 8000 to targets that should allow for better re-mapping
according to individual use cases (i.e. I avoided hard-wiring to
standard keys). This time I also included the last missing key event
(switching back from presentation mode).

The optimal Xmodmap customization for using the Presenter with
OpenOffice now looks like this for me:

keycode 175 = Escape
keycode 179 = F5
keysym XF86Forward = Right
keysym XF86Back = Left

fe56caa97e HID: Support Samsung IR remote
Samsung USB remotes (0419:0001) are rejected by kernel 2.6.23, because the
report descriptor from the remote contains a 48 bit HID report field. HID 1.11
states: Fields may span at most 4 bytes.

This patch, based on 2.6.23, fixes this by modifying the internal report
descriptor in hid-quirks.c. Additional user space support (e.g. LIRC) is
required to fetch the information from the hiddev interface.

The burden to reconstruct the data is moved into userspace (lirc through hiddev).
There is no need to set HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV quirk, as the device has also output
applications, which trigger the creation of hiddev device automatically.

to

The `bit' in this function is an out parameter.

c4124c9b68 HID: remove redundant WARN_ON()s in order not to scare users
The WARN_ON() in implement() and extract() spit out stacktraces and
a lot of other information that might make users think that there is
something seriously wrong with the system. WARN_ON() should not be
deliberately triggerable by userspace application, which these can be.
Usually this WARN_ON() triggers when hid2hci utility is sending the
data that don't correspond to the device's report descriptor.

Convert these messages to more friendly printk().

0887b4cb21 HID: force hiddev creation for SONY PS3 controller
The device is not discoverable, and needs to be poked to set its master, the
Bluetooth device it will try to connect to when the "Home" button is pressed
without a cable plugged in.

Using libusb means disconnecting the device from its driver to get the report
descriptor. Using hiddev, we can poke it without relinquishing control over it,
so when you plug it in, it would still work as a pad.

This could be then used by sixpair program, after it is rewritten to use
hiddev instead of libusb.
