c8a61a7d33 mac80211: New stat counters for multicast and unicast forwarded frames
This expands on the current fwded_frames stat counter which should be equal to
the total of these two new counters.  The new counters are called "fwded_mcast"
and "fwded_unicast".

bcd64e0c20 wl1251: halt the embedded CPU before loading firmware
After initial power-up, the embedded cpu is usually halted.  However,
if we down the interface and only do a soft reset before bringing
the interface back up, it will still be running and the firmware
loading code will bail out.  This change halts the CPU before loading
the firmware, enabling a second call to wl1251_boot() to succeed
without a hard reset.

bfc32e6a95 mac80211: Decouple fail_avg stats used by mesh from rate control algorithm.
Mesh uses the tx failure average to compute the (m)path metric.  This used to
be done inside the rate control module.  This patch breaks the dependency
between the mesh stack and the rate control algorithm.  Mesh will now work
independently of the chosen rate control algorithm.

The mesh stack keeps a moving average of the average transmission losses for
each mesh peer station.  If the fail average exceeds a certain threshold, the
peer link is marked as broken.

3ac64beecd mac80211: allow configure_filter callback to sleep
Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up
with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter
operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify
things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add
a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that
need the multicast address list implement. This new
callback must be atomic, but most drivers either
don't care or just calculate a hash which can be
done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware
non-atomically.

A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170,
mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00,
wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this
new capability.

ea416a793d cfg80211: report userspace SME connected event properly
Instead of hacking the event reporting into the
__cfg80211_connect_result() function which is also
invoked by others, set up things correctly and then
invoke that function, so that it can do more sanity
checking.

Also, it is currently not possible to get a ROAMED
event from the userspace SME anyway since we send
out a DISCONNECTED event when it disassociates and
then a new CONNECTED event on the next association.

Thanks to Zhu Yi for pointing out that the code is
somewhat convoluted and doesn't warn when it should.

0ff6ce7b36 cfg80211: fix deadlock
When removing an interface with nl80211, cfg80211 will
deadlock in the netdev notifier because we're already
holding rdev->mtx and try to acquire it again to verify
the scan has been done.

This bug was introduced by my patch
"cfg80211: check for and abort dangling scan requests".

To fix this, move the dangling scan request check into
wiphy_unregister(). This will not be able to catch all
cases right away, but if the scan problem happens with
a manual ifdown or so it will be possible to remedy it
by removing the module/device.

Additionally, add comments about the deadlock scenario.

396887a2b2 iwlwifi: fix erroneous use of iwl_rx_packet.len as a length
The field called 'len' in struct iwl_rx_packet is in fact not just a length
field but also includes some flags from the flow handler.  In several places
throughout the driver, this causes incorrect values to be interpreted as
lengths when the field is improperly masked.

In most situations the improper use is for debugging output, and simply results
in an erroneous message, such as:

[551933.070224] ieee80211 phy0: I iwl_rx_statistics Statistics notification received (480 vs -1367342620).

which should read '(480 vs 484)'.

In at least one case this could case bad things to happen:

void iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif(struct iwl_priv *priv,
                                      struct iwl_rx_mem_buffer *rxb)
{
        struct iwl_rx_packet *pkt = (struct iwl_rx_packet *)rxb->skb->data;
        IWL_DEBUG_RADIO(priv, "Dumping %d bytes of unhandled "
                        "notification for %s:\n",
                        le32_to_cpu(pkt->len), get_cmd_string(pkt->hdr.cmd));
        iwl_print_hex_dump(priv, IWL_DL_RADIO, pkt->u.raw, le32_to_cpu(pkt->len)
);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif);

Given the rampant misuse of this field without proper masking throughout the
driver (every use but one), this patch renames the field from 'len' to
'len_n_flags' to reduce confusion.  It also adds the proper masking when
this field is used as a length value.

28e6f48953 iwlwifi: check short GI support per-station rather than globally
Short guard interval support is a local per-station parameter not a global
per-NIC parameter.  (mac80211 will correctly remove SGI support from station
capabilities if the BSS does not permit it).  This patch removes the short GI
support bitfield from the global iwl_ht_info struct and properly uses
per-station HT capabilities during rate selection.

28bd723bba iwlwifi: configure HT40 channels in iwl_mac_config
As indicated by note in iwl_ht_conf, some HT parameters are set on association
(e.g., channel width) and some vary over time (HT protection mode) and per
station (e.g., short GI support).  The global parameters should be set in
iwl_mac_config and the local/varying parameters in iwl_ht_conf.

This patch moves the channel width configuration from iwl_ht_conf to
iwl_mac_config, and defers further cleanup of the local/global conflation for a
later patch.

This fixes a bug in using HT40 channels in some modes.

9f30e04e04 iwlwifi: refactor packet reception code
This patch fixes a number of issues in iwl_rx_reply_rx and
iwl_pass_packet_to_mac80211.  These issues stem from the complexities of
managing two different types of packet commands for different hardware.

- Unify code handling rx_phy_res in SKB or cached to eliminate redundancy and
remove potential NULL pointer accesses
- Replace magic number with proper constant
- Optimize functions by moving early exit conditions before computation
- Comment code and improve some variable names
- Remove redundant computation in iwl_pass_packet_to_mac80211 by passing in the
correct, already-computed arguments.
