90c215c476 cfg80211: fix SME connect
There's a check saying
	/* we're good if we have both BSSID and channel */
	if (wdev->conn->params.bssid && wdev->conn->params.channel) {

but that isn't true -- we need the BSS struct. This leads
to errors such as

    Trying to associate with 00:1b:53:11:dc:40 (SSID='TEST' freq=2412 MHz)
    ioctl[SIOCSIWFREQ]: No such file or directory
    ioctl[SIOCSIWESSID]: No such file or directory
    Association request to the driver failed
    Associated with 00:1b:53:11:dc:40

in wpa_supplicant, as reported by Holger.

Instead, we really need to have the BSS struct, and if we
don't, then we need to initiate a scan for it. But we may
already have the BSS struct here, so hang on to it if we
do and scan if we don't.

96d8c6af24 iwlwifi: disable powersave for 4965
There's a bug in 4965 powersave that appears to
be related to the way it keeps track of its data
during sleep, but we haven't found it yet. Due to
that, using powersave may spontaneously cause the
device to SYSASSERT when transitioning from sleep
to wake. Therefore, disable powersave for 4965,
until (if ever, unfortunately) we can identify
and fix the problem.

Cf. http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1982
which was closed, but now has re-appeared with
IDLE mode, which probably means we never really
fixed it.

de0bd50845 iwlwifi: fix potential rx buffer loss
RX handling maintains a few lists that keep track of the RX buffers.
Buffers move from one list to the other as they are used, replenished, and
again made available for usage. In one such instance, when a buffer is used
it enters the "rx_used" list. When buffers are replenished an skb is
attached to the buffer and it is moved to the "rx_free" list. The problem
here is that the buffer is first removed from the "rx_used" list _before_ the
skb is allocated. Thus, if the skb allocation fails this buffer remains
removed from the "rx_used" list and is thus lost for future usage.

Fix this by first allocating the skb before trying to attach it to a list.
We add an additional check to not do this unnecessarily.

91d372c0af b43: Fix resume failure
This fixes a resume failure where a signal is pending on resume
so the firmware upload fails.
This removes the interruptible sleep, because we don't really need it.
In the worst case (with broken firmware) the sleep loop will take 1 second.
In the common case (working firmware), it will only take a few milliseconds.
So we don't really need to be interruptible.

05f57195ab hostap: Revert a toxic part of the conversion to net_device_ops
As the hostap driver was converted to use net_device_ops, a mistake was
made in hostap_main.c (commit 5ae4efbcd2).
Originally, the tx_queue_len was set to 0 for every other interface than
HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER, but the new fragment of code sets tx_queue_len to
0 only for HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER. The opposite of the previous
behavior makes the driver to drop all packets in AP mode.

Change the way 0 is assigned to tx_queue_len according to the original
logic.

cbc8cc3352 udf: Fix possible corruption when close races with write

81056dd044 udf: Perform preallocation only for regular files
So far we preallocated blocks also for directories but that brings a
problem, when to get rid of preallocated blocks we don't need. So far
we removed them in udf_clear_inode() which has a disadvantage that
1) blocks are unavailable long after writing to a directory finished
   and thus one can get out of space unnecessarily early
2) releasing blocks from udf_clear_inode is problematic because VFS
   does not expect us to redirty inode there and it also slows down
   memory reclaim.

So preallocate blocks only for regular files where we can drop preallocation
in udf_release_file.

2daea67e96 fsync: wait for data writeout completion before calling ->fsync
Currenly vfs_fsync(_range) first calls filemap_fdatawrite to write out
the data, the calls into ->fsync to write out the metadata and then finally
calls filemap_fdatawait to wait for the data I/O to complete.  What sounds
like a clever micro-optimization actually is nast trap for many filesystems.

For many modern filesystems i_size or other inode information is only
updated on I/O completion and we need to wait for I/O to finish before
we can write out the metadata.  For old fashionen filesystems that
instanciate blocks during the actual write and also update the metadata
at that point it opens up a large window were we could expose uninitialized
blocks after a crash.  While a few filesystems that need it already wait
for the I/O to finish inside their ->fsync methods it is rather suboptimal
as it is done under the i_mutex and also always for the whole file instead
of just a part as we could do for O_SYNC handling.

Here is a small audit of all fsync instances in the tree:

 - spufs_mfc_fsync:
 - ps3flash_fsync:
 - vol_cdev_fsync:
 - printer_fsync:
 - fb_deferred_io_fsync:
 - bad_file_fsync:
 - simple_sync_file:

	don't care - filesystems/drivers do't use the page cache or are
	purely in-memory.

 - simple_fsync:
 - file_fsync:
 - affs_file_fsync:
 - fat_file_fsync:
 - jfs_fsync:
 - ubifs_fsync:
 - reiserfs_dir_fsync:
 - reiserfs_sync_file:

	never touch pagecache themselves.  We need to wait before if we do
	not want to expose stale data after an allocation.

 - afs_fsync:
 - fuse_fsync_common:

	do the waiting writeback itself in awkward ways, would benefit from
	proper semantics

 - block_fsync:

	Does a filemap_write_and_wait on the block device inode.  Because we
	now have f_mapping that is the same inode we call it on in vfs_fsync.
	So just removing it and letting the VFS do the work in one go would
	be an improvement.

 - btrfs_sync_file:
 - cifs_fsync:
 - xfs_file_fsync:

	need the wait first and currently do it themselves. would benefit from
	doing it outside i_mutex.

 - coda_fsync:
 - ecryptfs_fsync:
 - exofs_file_fsync:
 - shm_fsync:

	only passes the fsync through to the lower layer

 - ext3_sync_file:

	doesn't seem to care, comments are confusing.

 - ext4_sync_file:

	would need the wait to work correctly for delalloc mode with late
	i_size updates.  Otherwise the ext3 comment applies.

	currently implemens it's own writeback and wait in an odd way,
	could benefit from doing it properly.

 - gfs2_fsync:

	not needed for journaled data mode, but probably harmless there.
	Currently writes back data asynchronously itself.  Needs some
	major audit.

 - hostfs_fsync:

	just calls fsync/datasync on the host FD.  Without the wait before
	data might not even be inflight yet if we're unlucky.

 - hpfs_file_fsync:
 - ncp_fsync:

	no-ops.  Dangerous before and after.

 - jffs2_fsync:

	just calls jffs2_flush_wbuf_gc, not sure how this relates to data.

 - nfs_fsync_dir:

	just increments stats, claims all directory operations are synchronous

 - nfs_file_fsync:

	only writes out data???  Looks very odd.

 - nilfs_sync_file:

	looks like it expects all data done, but not sure from the code

 - ntfs_dir_fsync:
 - ntfs_file_fsync:

	appear to do their own data writeback.  Very convoluted code.

 - ocfs2_sync_file:

	does it's own data writeback, but no wait.  probably needs the wait.

 - smb_fsync:

	according to a comment expects all pages written already, probably needs
	the wait before.

This patch only changes vfs_fsync_range, removal of the wait in the methods
that have it is left to the filesystem maintainers.  Note that most
filesystems really do need an audit for their fsync methods given the
gems found in this very brief audit.

2f3d675bcd fat: Opencode sync_page_range_nolock()
fat_cont_expand() is the only user of sync_page_range_nolock(). It's also the
only user of generic_osync_inode() which does not have a file open.  So
opencode needed actions for FAT so that we can convert generic_osync_inode() to
a standard syncing path.

Update a comment about generic_osync_inode().

af0f4414f3 xfs: Convert sync_page_range() to simple filemap_write_and_wait_range()
Christoph Hellwig says that it is enough for XFS to call
filemap_write_and_wait_range() instead of sync_page_range() because we do
all the metadata syncing when forcing the log.

d23c937b0f ocfs2: Update syncing after splicing to match generic version
Update ocfs2 specific splicing code to use generic syncing helper. The sync now
does not happen under rw_lock because generic_write_sync() acquires i_mutex
which ranks above rw_lock. That should not matter because standard fsync path
does not hold it either.

148f948ba8 vfs: Introduce new helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode
Introduce new function for generic inode syncing (vfs_fsync_range) and use
it from fsync() path. Introduce also new helper for syncing after a sync
write (generic_write_sync) using the generic function.

Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes
O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really
care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire
it before it returns.

eef9938067 vfs: Rename generic_file_aio_write_nolock
generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw
character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case
generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to
blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c.

918941a3f3 ocfs2: Use __generic_file_aio_write instead of generic_file_aio_write_nolock
Use the new helper. We have to submit data pages ourselves in case of O_SYNC
write because __generic_file_aio_write does not do it for us. OCFS2 developpers
might think about moving the sync out of i_mutex which seems to be easily
possible but that's out of scope of this patch.

c7b50db21f vfs: Remove syncing from generic_file_direct_write() and generic_file_buffered_write()
generic_file_direct_write() and generic_file_buffered_write() called
generic_osync_inode() if it was called on O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode. But
this is superfluous since generic_file_aio_write() does the syncing as well.
Also XFS and OCFS2 which call these functions directly handle syncing
themselves. So let's have a single place where syncing happens:
generic_file_aio_write().

We slightly change the behavior by syncing only the range of file to which the
write happened for buffered writes but that should be all that is required.
