e3d7556b77 ath9k: Calculate IQ-CAL median
This patch adds a routine to calculate the median IQ correction
values for AR955x, which is used for outlier detection.
The normal method which is used for all other chips is
bypassed for AR955x.

97fe6420c9 ath9k: Modify IQ calibration for AR955x
IQ calibration post-processing for AR955x is different
from other chips - instead of just doing it as part
of AGC calibration once, it is triggered 3 times and
a median is determined. This patch adds initial support
for changing the calibration behavior for AR955x.

Also, to simplify things, a helper routine to issue/poll
AGC calibration is used.

For non-AR955x chips, the iqcal_idx (which will be used
in subsequent patches) is set to zero.

9fded99ad7 ath9k: Check explicitly for IQ calibration
In chips like AR955x, the initvals contain the information
whether IQ calibration is to be done in the HW when an
AGC calibration is triggered. Check if IQ-CAL is enabled
in the initvals before flagging 'txiqcal_done' as true.

9e495a2603 ath9k: Remove ath9k rate control
There is no benefit in retaining the legacy rate control module
in the driver codebase.

It is known to be buggy and has less than optimal performance
in real-world environments compared with minstrel. The only
reason that it was kept when we made the switch to minstrel
as default was that it showed higher throughput numbers in a
clean/ideal environment.

This is no longer the case and minstrel can push ath9k to
the same throughput levels. In TCP, with 3-stream cards, more than
295 Mbps can be obtained in open air, with 2-stream cards,
210 Mbps is easily reached. To test performance issues,
instead of using a broken rate control module, it is better
to use the fixed-rate interface provided by mac80211 anyway.

The ath9k RC has not received any bug fixes in years and is
just bit-rotting away - this patch removes it.

2da5cb2979 brcmfmac: CR4 takes precedence over CM3 in brcmf_chip_enter_download()
In the enter and exit download sequence the chip core info was checked

the CM3. However, on devices that have a CM3 and CR4 this is not correct
and the CR4 should be used to enter download state. This patch changes
the ARM core lookup giving CR4 precedence.

bafc20a649 ath9k: Remove unnecessary check
The commit "ath9k: Fix IQ calibration" added a check
to ensure that valid i2_p_q2_a0_d1 values are not discarded.
But since it is masked with 0xfff earlier, the codepath
will not be executed.

The earlier case where all values above 0x800 were considered
invalid is incorrect, since the HW can return valid values
between 0x800 and 0xfff.

c9efe51165 fix a kmap leak in virtio_console
While we are at it, don't do kmap() under kmap_atomic(), *especially*
for a page we'd allocated with GFP_KERNEL.  It's spelled "page_address",
and had that been more than that, we'd have a real trouble - kmap_high()
can block, and doing that while holding kmap_atomic() is a Bad Idea(tm).

d311d79de3 fix O_SYNC|O_APPEND syncing the wrong range on write()
It actually goes back to 2004 ([PATCH] Concurrent O_SYNC write support)
when sync_page_range() had been introduced; generic_file_write{,v}() correctly
synced
	pos_after_write - written .. pos_after_write - 1
but generic_file_aio_write() synced
	pos_before_write .. pos_before_write + written - 1
instead.  Which is not the same thing with O_APPEND, obviously.
A couple of years later correct variant had been killed off when
everything switched to use of generic_file_aio_write().

All users of generic_file_aio_write() are affected, and the same bug
has been copied into other instances of ->aio_write().

The fix is trivial; the only subtle point is that generic_write_sync()
ought to be inlined to avoid calculations useless for the majority of
calls.
