a7af530d45 iwmc3200wifi: 802.11n Tx aggregation support
To support 802.11n Tx aggregation support with iwmc3200 wifi, we have to
handle the UMAC_CMD_OPCODE_STOP_RESUME_STA_TX notification from the UMAC.
Before sending an AddBA, the UMAC synchronizes with the host in order to
know what is the last Tx frame it's supposed to receive before it will be
able to start the actual aggregation session.
We thus have to keep track of the last sequence number that is scheduled
for transmission on a particular RAxTID, send an answer to the UMAC with
this sequence number. The UMAC then does the BA negociation and once it's
done with it sends a new UMAC_CMD_OPCODE_STOP_RESUME_STA_TX notification
to let us know that we can resume the Tx flow on the specified RAxTID.

e85498b21d iwmc3200wifi: CT kill support
We set the initial CT (Temperature control) value to 110 degrees.
If the chip goes over that threshold, we hard block the device which will turn
it down. At the same time we schedule a 30 seconds delayed work that unblock
the device (and userspace is supposed to bring it back up), hoping that the
chip will have cooled down by then...

a9a11622c5 cfg80211: self-contained wext handling where possible
Finally! This is what you've all been waiting for!

This patch makes cfg80211 take care of wext emulation
_completely_ by itself, drivers that don't need things
cfg80211 doesn't do yet don't even need to be aware of
wireless extensions.
This means we can also clean up mac80211's and iwm's
Kconfig and make it possible to build them w/o wext
now!

		RIP wext.

2a21f86917 wireless: ERR_PTR vs null
iwm_wdev_alloc() returns an ERR_PTR on failure and not null.  It also
prints its own dev_err() message so I removed that as well.

Compile tested only.  Sorry.

513a2396d8 iwmc3200wifi: fix NULL pointer dereference in iwm_if_free
The driver private data is now based on wiphy. So we should not
touch the private data after wiphy_free() is called. The patch
fixes the potential NULL pointer dereference by making the
iwm_wdev_free() the last one on the interface removal path.

257862f3fa iwmc3200wifi: rfkill cleanup
The patch cleans up the unused rfkill related structures and flags.
It also adds wext and cfg80211 handlers for txpower auto and off so
that software rfkill could be issued by user space.

3549716484 iwmc3200wifi: cache keys when interface is down
When the interface is down and one sets a WEP key from userspace, we should
be able to simply cache it.
Since that implies setting part of the profile's security settings, we now
alloc/free the umac_profile at probe/remove time, and no longer at interface
bring up/down time. Simply resetting it during the latter is enough.

d7e057dca3 iwmc3200wifi: add iwm_if_add and iwm_if_remove
We used to do alloc_netdev and register_netdev at the same time in
iwm_if_alloc. But some bus related structures will only be initialized
after iwm_priv is allocated. This caused a race condition that the
netdev might be registered earlier. The patch adds iwm_if_add and
iwm_if_remove so that the bus layer could register the device after
all initialization is done.

8d96e7960b iwmc3200wifi: check for iwm_priv_init error
We need to check for iwm_priv_init() errors and do proper cleanups.
Otherwise we may fail to catch the create_singlethread_workqueue()
error which will cause a kernel oops when destroy_workqueue() later.

soft-kill which cfg80211 will now handle in exactly the

This driver supports Intel's full MAC wireless multicomm 802.11 hardware.
Although the hardware is a 802.11agn device, we currently only support
802.11ag, in managed and ad-hoc mode (no AP mode for now).
