a13883b0bf ath9k: Reduce the frequency of PA offset calibration
PA calibration need not be done if the offset is not varying.
The current logic does PA calibration even if the offset is the
same.

b8ecd988b1 libipw: initiate cfg80211 API conversion
Initiate the conversion of libipw to the new cfg80211 configuration API.

For now, leave CONFIG_IPW2200_PROMISCUOUS stuff alone.  Eventually
migrate it to cfg80211 when the add/del/change_virtual_intf methods

15db0b7fd8 mac80211: fix scan cancel on ifdown
When an interface is taken down while a scan is
pending -- i.e. a scan request was accepted but
not yet acted upon due to other work being in
progress -- we currently do not properly cancel
that scan and end up getting stuck. Fix this by
doing better checks when an interface is taken

aa065263ec iwlwifi: Make injection of non-broadcast frames work again
Commit 1ccb84d87d04df3c76cd4352fe69786d8c7cf016 by Wey-Yi Guy
("iwlwifi: clean up unused NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR for Monitor mode")
broke injection of non-broadcast frames to unassociated stations
(causing a SYSASSERT for all such injected frames), due to injected
frames no longer automatically getting a broadcast station ID assigned.
This patch restores the old behavior, fixing the aforementioned
regression.

Also, consistently check for IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED instead of
iwl_is_monitor_mode in the TX path, as TX_CTL_INJECTED specifically
means that a given packet is coming from a monitor interface, while
iwl_is_monitor_mode only shows whether a monitor interface exists
on the device.

needs some special treatment as it's so old it can't do unaligned register

Also, this card uses only one-stage firmware which is loaded the same way as
helper firmware. The second-stage firmware isn't loaded on this card and doesn't
therefore have to be supplied.

ea77f12f2c mac80211: remove tasklet enable/disable
Due to the way the tasklets work in mac80211 there's
no need to ever disable them.

However, we need to clear the pending packets when
taking down the last interface because otherwise
the tx_pending_tasklet might be queued if the
driver mucks with the queues (which it shouldn't).

I've had a situation occasionally with ar9170 in
which ksoftirq was using 100% CPU time because
a disabled tasklet was scheduled, and I think that
was due to ar9170 receiving a packet while the
tasklet was disabled. That's strange and it really
should not do that for other reasons, but there's
no need to waste that much CPU time over it, it
should just warn instead.

3d54d25515 cfg80211: clean up properly on interface type change
When the interface type changes while connected, and the
driver does not require the interface to be down for a
type change, it is currently possible to get very strange
results unless the driver takes special care, which it
shouldn't have to.

To fix this, take care to disconnect/leave IBSS when
changing the interface type -- even if the driver may fail
the call. Also process all events that may be pending to
avoid running into a situation where an event is reported
but only processed after the type has already changed,
which would lead to missing events and warnings.

A side effect of this is that you will have disconnected
or left the IBSS even if the mode change ultimately fails,
but since the intention was to change it and thus leave or
disconnect, this is not a problem.

f7969969f4 cfg80211: make spurious warnings less likely, configurable
Bob reported that he got warnings in IBSS mode about
the ssid_len being zero on a joined event, but only
when kmemcheck was enabled. This appears to be due
to a race condition between drivers and userspace,
when the driver reports joined but the user in the
meantime decided to leave the IBSS again, the warning
would trigger. This was made more likely by kmemcheck
delaying the code that does the check and sends the
event.

So first, make the warning trigger closer to the
driver, which means it's not locked, but since only
the warning depends on it that's ok.

And secondly, users will not want to have spurious
warnings at all, so make those that are known to be
racy in such a way configurable.

the driver. However, it currently does this too early,
it does this in GOING_DOWN already instead of DOWN, so
it may happen with mac80211. Besides fixing this, also
make it more robust by leaking the scan request so if
the driver later actually finishes the scan, it won't
crash. Also check in ___cfg80211_scan_done whether a
scan request is still pending and exit if not.

40ba60ddfe rndis_wlan: fix broken logic in add_wep_key()
add_wep_key() tries to check if key length is not 5 AND not 13
but uses (key_len != 5 || key_len != 13) instead. Fix this.

84f6a01ce0 mac80211: fix configure_filter invocation after stop
Since configure_filter can sleep now, any multicast
configuration needed to be postponed to a work struct.
This, however, lead to a problem that we could queue
the work, stop the device and then afterwards invoke
configure_filter which may lead to driver hangs and is
a bug. To fix this, we can just cancel the filter work
since it's unnecessary to do after stopping the hw.

Since there are various places that call drv_stop, and
two of them do very similar things, the code for them
can be put into a shared function at the same time.

5eb6ba83aa ath9k: Add support FIF_OTHER_BSS filtering mode.
Support for FIF_OTHER_BSS was missing.  This patch adds support for this
filtering mode which in turn resolves a problem where mesh interfaces would not
receive broadcast traffic.
