950094cb06 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn.c: Fix return value from an unsigned function
The function has an unsigned return type, but returns a negative constant
to indicate an error condition.  Another error condition in the same
function is indicated by returning 0, and indeed the only call to the
function checks for 0 to detect errors, so the return of a negative value
it converted to a return of 0.

f7322f8f05 iwlagn: open/close envlope to force move BT state machine
In uCode, BT state machine need to receive open envlope
command before perform calibration; followed by close envlope
command to move to next stage.

Since Linux has two separated uCode, one for init and the second
one for runtime; we use open envlope commands for init uCode to
indicate we are ready to perform calibration operation.
But for runtime uCode, we are not doing any init calibration,
so we issue open/close envlope commands to force uCode move to
"BT COEX ON" state.

This function exists to clean-up after a hardware error or something
similar.  The restart is accomplished using the same infrastructure used
to resume after a suspend.  The suspend path cancels running scans, so
it seems appropriate to do that here as well for software-based scans.
If a hardware-based scan is pending, issue a warning message since this
indicates that the drivers has failed to clean-up after itself.

cd35a39121 rt2x00: Cleanup rt2x00usb_watchdog_reset_tx
rt2x00usb_watchdog_reset_tx performs the same task
as rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue, with the only difference
is that it waits for all entries to be returned to
the driver and for all frames the status has been
reported to mac80211.

We can easily split this task by calling rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue,
sleep for a short period and invoke the TX status reporting
function. By adding the sleep() to the kill_entry we make sure
that even during shutdown we guarentee the entry has been killed when
the function returns. To make this work correctly the interrupt
handlers have to be updated to prevent checking for the RADIO_ENABLED
flag too early which prevents the ownership of the entry to be reset.
Additionally a check for the DEVICE_PRESENT flag is not required but
is nice to prevent race conditions when the device was unplugged.

Additionally rather then calling rt2x00usb_work_txdone() for
status reporting we let the driver perform the TX status reporting
first. If this is not sufficient then rt2x00usb_work_txdone() will
still be used to cleanup the mess.

652a9dd2a0 rt2x00: Split watchdog check into a DMA and STATUS timeout
The watchdog for rt2800usb triggers frequently causing all URB's
to be canceled often enough to interrupt the normal TX flow.
More research indicated that not the URB upload to the USB host
were hanging, but instead the TX status reports.

To correctly detect what is going on, we introduce Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE
which is an index counter between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX and indicates
if the frame has been transfered to the device.

This also requires the rt2x00queue timeout functions to be updated
to differentiate between a DMA timeout (time between Q_INDEX and
Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE timeout) and a STATUS timeout (time between
Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE and Q_INDEX_DONE timeout)

All Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE code was taken from the RFC from
Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> for the implementation
for watchdog for rt2800pci.

42da2f948d wireless extensions: fix kernel heap content leak
Wireless extensions have an unfortunate, undocumented
requirement which requires drivers to always fill
iwp->length when returning a successful status. When
a driver doesn't do this, it leads to a kernel heap
content leak when userspace offers a larger buffer
than would have been necessary.

Arguably, this is a driver bug, as it should, if it
returns 0, fill iwp->length, even if it separately
indicated that the buffer contents was not valid.

However, we can also at least avoid the memory content
leak if the driver doesn't do this by setting the iwp
length to max_tokens, which then reflects how big the
buffer is that the driver may fill, regardless of how
big the userspace buffer is.

To illustrate the point, this patch also fixes a
corresponding cfg80211 bug (since this requirement
isn't documented nor was ever pointed out by anyone
during code review, I don't trust all drivers nor
all cfg80211 handlers to implement it correctly).

f880c2050f p54: fix tx feedback status flag check
Michael reported that p54* never really entered power
save mode, even tough it was enabled.

It turned out that upon a power save mode change the
firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing
frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the
designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the
driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures
to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc.

d8e1ba76d6 ath5k: check return value of ieee80211_get_tx_rate
This avoids a NULL pointer dereference as reported here:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=625889

When the WARN condition is hit in ieee80211_get_tx_rate, it will return
NULL.  So, we need to check the return value and avoid dereferencing it
in that case.

5b714c6a37 mac80211: fix offchannel queue stop
Somebody noticed this problem, and I outlined
to them how to fix it, but haven't heard back
from them. So while I was adding the state
field I figured I could use it to fix it.

The problem, as I understand it, is that when
we go offchannel while the driver has a queue
stopped, the driver will likely start draining
the queue and then enable it while offchannel.
This in turn will enable the interface queue,
and that leads to transmitting data frames on
the wrong channel.

Fix this by keeping track of offchannel status
per interface, and not enabling the interface
queues on interfaces that are offchannel when
the driver enables a queue.

34d4bc4d41 mac80211: support runtime interface type changes
Add support to mac80211 for changing the interface
type even when the interface is UP, if the driver
supports it.

To achieve this
 * add a new driver callback for switching,
 * split some of the interface up/down code out
   into new functions (do_open/do_stop), and
 * maintain an own __SDATA_RUNNING bit that will
   not be set during interface type, so that any
   other code doesn't use the interface.

bf533e0bfd mac80211: simplify zero address checks
The libertas_tf special code for zero addresses
is a bit too complex, it compares against a stack
value instead of using is_zero_ether_addr() and
tries to update all interfaces even if just the
one that's being brought up needs to be changed.
Additionally, the repeated check for a valid MAC
address need only be done if we actually changed
it on the fly.

b9dcf712d1 mac80211: clean up ifdown/cleanup paths
There's a lot of redundant code in mac80211's
interface cleanup/down, for example freeing
AP beacons is done both when the interface is
set DOWN as well as when it is torn down, of
which only the former has any effect.

Also, a bunch of things should be closer to
where they matter, like the MLME timers that
we should cancel when disassociating, rather
than only when the interface is set DOWN.

Clean up all this code.
