621cac8529 rfkill: remove user_claim stuff
Almost all drivers do not support user_claim, so remove it
completely and always report -EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. Since
userspace cannot really drive rfkill _anyway_ (due to the
odd restrictions imposed by the documentation) having this
code is just pointless.

ec9a1d8c13 b43: Poison RX buffers
This patch adds poisoning and sanity checking to the RX DMA buffers.
This is used for protection against buggy hardware/firmware that raises
RX interrupts without doing an actual DMA transfer.

This mechanism protects against rare "bad packets" (due to uninitialized skb data)
and rare kernel crashes due to uninitialized RX headers.

The poison is selected to not match on valid frames and to be cheap for checking.

The poison check mechanism _might_ trigger incorrectly, if we are voluntarily
receiving frames with bad PLCP headers. However, this is nonfatal, because the
chance of such a match is basically zero and in case it happens it just results
in dropping the packet.
Bad-PLCP RX defaults to off, and you should leave it off unless you want to listen
to the latest news broadcasted by your microwave oven.

This patch also moves the initialization of the RX-header "length" field in front of
the mapping of the DMA buffer. The CPU should not touch the buffer after we mapped it.

a3c0b87c4f b43: fix b43_plcp_get_bitrate_idx_ofdm return type
This patch fixes the return type of b43_plcp_get_bitrate_idx_ofdm. If
the plcp contains an error, the function return value is 255 instead
of -1, and the packet was not dropped. This causes a warning in
__ieee80211_rx function because rate idx is out of range.

3e3ccb3d9b b43: Mask PHY TX error interrupt, if not debugging
This masks the PHY TX error interrupt, if debugging is disabled.

Currently we have a bug somewhere which triggers this interrupt once
in a while. (Depends on the network noise/quality). While this is nonfatal,
it scares the hell out of users and we frequently receive bugreports
that incorrectly identify this error message as the reason.

There's another problem with this. The PHY TX error interrupt is protected
with a watchdog that will restart the device if it keeps triggering very often.
This is used to fix interrupt storms from completely broken devices.

However, this watchdog might trigger in completely normal operation.
If the TX capacity of the card is saturated, the likeliness of the watchdog
triggering increases, as more TX errors occur. The current threshold
for the watchdog is 1000 errors in 15 seconds.

This patch adds a workaround for the issue by just enabling the interrupt
if debugging is disabled (by Kconfig or by modparam).

This has the downside that real fatal PHY TX errors are not caught anymore.
But this is nonfatal due to the following reasons:
* If the card is not able to transmit anymore, MLME will notice anyway.
* I did _never_ see a real fatal PHY TX error in a mainline b43 driver.
* It does _not_ result in interrupt storms or something like that.
  It will simply result in a stalled card. It can be debugged by enabling
  the debugging module parameter.

bdceeb2dad b43: Optimize DMA buffers
In the old days we used one slot per frame. But when we changed that to 2,
we didn't raise the overall slot count. Which resulted in an effective
division of two to the number of slots.

Double the number of TX slots, so we have an effective hardware queue
of 128 frames per QoS queue.

Also optimize the TX header cache handling. We don't need a cached TX header
for slots that will never carry an actual header.
So we reduce the memory consumption of the cache by 50%.

So as a net result we end up with more or less the same memory usage before
and after this patch (except a few tiny meta structures), but have twice
the number of TX slots available.

060210f938 b43: Dynamically control log verbosity
Dynamically control the log verbosity with a module parameter.
This enables us to dynamically enable debugging messages (or disable
info, warn, error messages) via module parameter or /sys/module/b43/parameters/verbose.

This increases the module size by about 3k. But in practice it reduces the
module size for the user, because some distributions ship the b43 module
with CONFIG_B43_DEBUG set, which increases the module by about 15k.

So with this patch applied, distributions should really _disable_ CONFIG_B43_DEBUG.
There is no reason to keep it in a production-release kernel.
So we have a net reduction in size by about 12k.

This patch also adds a printk of the wireless core revision, so people
don't have to enable SSB debugging to get the wireless core revision.

18c8adeb02 b43: Rewrite TX power adjustment
This patch rewrites the TX power recalculation algorithms to scale better
with changed enviromnent. If there's low
TX traffic, the power will be checked against the desired values
every 60 seconds.
If there is high TX traffic, the check is redone every 2 seconds. This improves
the reaction times a lot and confuses the rate control less.
It will also reduce the time it initially takes to tune to a new TX power
value. With the old algorithm it could take about 30 to 45 seconds to settle to
a new power value. This will happen in about two to four seconds now.

430cd47fa9 b43: Fix for another Bluetooth Coexistence SPROM Programming error for BCM4306
In trying to help users on the Ubuntu Bugzilla, I discovered another
BCM4306 with the Bluetooth Coexistence programming error in the SPROM.

This patch is contingent on the one that added the Linksys device with
subdevice code of 0x0014.

d0f0980414 mac80211: partially fix skb->cb use
This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step
from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now,
disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing,
will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software
requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is
not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

0b57664cf2 wireless: fix warnings from QoS patch
When I removed the special "default" meaning from the QoS
parameters, I forgot to update drivers and this lead to
warnings because some drivers were checking for the special
values and putting in defaults. This fixes that by removing
the default special-casing completely.

f591fa5dbb mac80211: fix TX sequence numbers
This patch makes mac80211 assign proper sequence numbers to
QoS-data frames. It also removes the old sequence number code
because we noticed that only the driver or hardware can assign
sequence numbers to non-QoS-data and especially management
frames in a race-free manner because beacons aren't passed
through mac80211's TX path.

This patch also adds temporary code to the rt2x00 drivers to
not break them completely, that code will have to be reworked
for proper sequence numbers on beacons.

It also moves sequence number assignment down in the TX path
so no sequence numbers are assigned to frames that are dropped.

9d139c810a mac80211: revamp beacon configuration
This patch changes mac80211's beacon configuration handling
to never pass skbs to the driver directly but rather always
require the driver to use ieee80211_beacon_get(). Additionally,
it introduces "change flags" on the config_interface() call
to enable drivers to figure out what is changing. Finally, it
removes the beacon_update() driver callback in favour of
having IBSS beacon delivered by ieee80211_beacon_get() as well.
