6f3b414aca ath5k: Update gain_F calibration code and add documentation
* Update and cleanup rf gain optimization code

 * Add comments and refferences to docs and use sane function names

 * Use only step index on ath5k_gain, no need to have a pointer to
   the current step since we can determine te step from it's index,
   this also allows us to put all other structs on rfgain.h and cleanup
   ath5k.h a little

 * No need for ah_rfgain variable, we use ah_gain.g_state for everything

 * Tested on RF2112B chip but gain_F calibration is not yet done
   (we will finish this on the next patch where we'll rewrite rf-buffer
   handling)

 * Use initial rf gain settings for 2316 and 2317 SoCs introduced on a previous patch

 It seems big but it's mostly cleanup, very few functional changes have been made on phy.c

33a31826b4 ath5k: PHY code cleanup
* Clean up initial rf buffer settings (new file rfbufer.h) and introduce a
   new way to access specific rf registers (will use it later)

 * Clean up initial rf gain settings by moving them on a new file (rfgain.h)
   so we can later work on gain optimization functions

 * Update initial rf buffer settings and initial rf gain settings from HALs.
   This breaks things for now because our current dumps come from pre-configured
   rf buffer (regdumps already had the needed values set from binary HAL).

7b08b3b4a9 mac80211: Remove TSF atomic requirement from the documentation
The atomic requirement for the TSF callbacks
is outdated. get_tsf() is only called by
ieee80211_rx_bss_info() which is indirectly
called by the work queue ieee80211_sta_work().
In the same context are called several other
non-atomic functions, too.
And the atomic requirement causes problems
for drivers of USB wifi cards.

97d97b8098 mac80211: Fix the wrong WARN_ON message appearing on enabling power save.
This issue happens only when we are associated with a 11n AP and power save
is enabled. In the function 'ieee80211_master_start_xmit', ps_disable_work
is queued where wake_queues is called. But before this work is executed,
we check if the queues are stopped in _ieee80211_tx and return TX_AGAIN to
ieee8011_tx which leads to the warning message.
This patch fixes this erroneous case.

573cca8c6f e1000e: remove RXSEQ link monitoring for serdes
RXSEQ interrupts were used to force link state interrogation of serdes
links, as the Si was not guaranteed to report LSC interrupts when the
link changed state. On some bladeservers this resulted in false link up
reports if no link partner was connected. The RXSEQ treatment is
not necessary, as the link can be monitored from the watchdog timer, and
the false link indications cease.

5df3f0eaf8 e1000e: Disable dynamic clock gating for 82571 per si errata.
82571 and 82572 Errata #13 documents that the Si feature DMA Dynamic
Clock Gating should be disabled, and identifies the workaround of
disabling the feature by EEPROM setting. EEPROM versions that do not
include the recommended workaround have been found in the field, and so
some customers remain at risk. Because the feature DMA Dynamic clock
Gating can be disabled by directly setting the appropriate bit in the
E1000_CTRL_EXT register, this patch overrides the EEPROM setting, and
force-disables the feature.

This crashed when an LRO packet generated by bnx2x reached a
tun device through the bridge.  We're supposed to drop it at
the bridge.  However, because the check was placed in br_forward
instead of __br_forward, it's only effective if we are sending
the packet through a single port.

This patch fixes it by moving the check into __br_forward.

works on a copy of the chunkmap, but at the end it doesn't
check the copy, but the orginal one.

1f9da25616 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix echo if not subscribed to any multicast group
This patch fixes echoing if the socket that has sent the request to
create/update/delete an entry is not subscribed to any multicast
group. With the current code, ctnetlink would not send the echo
message via unicast as nfnetlink_send() would be skip.

c969aa7d2c netfilter: ctnetlink: allow changing NAT sequence adjustment in creation
This patch fixes an inconsistency in the current ctnetlink code
since NAT sequence adjustment bit can only be updated but not set
in the conntrack entry creation.

This patch is used by conntrackd to successfully recover newly
created entries that represent connections with helpers and NAT
payload mangling.

3f9007135c netfilter: nf_conntrack_ipv6: don't track ICMPv6 negotiation message
This patch removes connection tracking handling for ICMPv6 messages
related to Stateless Address Autoconfiguration, MLD, and MLDv2. They
can not be tracked because they are massively using multicast (on
pre-defined address). But they are not invalid and should not be
detected as such.
