184d68b2b0 tcp: No need to clear retransmit_skb_hint when SACKing
Because lost counter no longer requires tuning, this is
trivial to remove (the tuning wouldn't have been too
hard either) because no "new" retransmittable skb appeared
below retransmit_skb_hint when SACKing for sure.

f09142eddb tcp: Kill precaution that's very likely obsolete
I suspect it might have been related to the changed amount
of lost skbs, which was counted by retransmit_cnt_hint that
got changed.

The place for this clearing was very illogical anyway,
it should have been after the LOST-bit clearing loop to
make any sense.

006f582c73 tcp: convert retransmit_cnt_hint to seqno
Main benefit in this is that we can then freely point
the retransmit_skb_hint to anywhere we want to because
there's no longer need to know what would be the count
changes involve, and since this is really used only as a
terminator, unnecessary work is one time walk at most,
and if some retransmissions are necessary after that
point later on, the walk is not full waste of time
anyway.

Since retransmit_high must be kept valid, all lost
markers must ensure that.

Now I also have learned how those "holes" in the
rexmittable skbs can appear, mtu probe does them. So
I removed the misleading comment as well.

25d834e162 mac80211: fix virtual interfaces vs. injection
Currently, virtual interface pointers passed to drivers might be
from monitor interfaces and as such completely uninitialised
because we do not tell the driver about monitor interfaces when
those are created. Instead of passing them, we should therefore
indicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by
passing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it.

As a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with
a NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally.

Also, when injecting frames we really don't want to pass NULL all
the time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have
a local interface for that address, we can to use that interface.
This also helps with processing the frame correctly for that
interface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It's not
entirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC
address isn't unique, but it's already a lot better than what we
do now.

Finally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don't
assign sequence numbers at all.

9c31fd635d libertas: Reduce the WPA key installation time.
WPA requires that the PTK is installed immediately after the 4-way handshake
in order to properly decrypt the subsequent incoming EAPOL-GTK frame.  If the
PTK is not enabled by the time the EAPOL-GTK frame arrives, the frame is
dropped and the supplicant does not receive the group key.

This will happen with fast Access Points that send the EAPOL-GTK frame before
the suplicant has successfully installed and enabled the PTK.  To mitigate
this situation, this patch simplifies and accelerates the SIOCSIWENCODEEXT
execution.

bed7aac941 rfkill: remove transmitter blocking on suspend
Currently, rfkill would stand in the way of properly supporting wireless
devices that are capable of waking the system up from sleep or hibernation
when they receive a special wireless message.  It would also get in the way
of mesh devices that need to remain operational even during platform
suspend.

To avoid that, stop trying to block the transmitters on the rfkill class
suspend handler.

Drivers that need rfkill's older behaviour will have to implement it by
themselves in their own suspend handling.

Do note that rfkill *will* attempt to restore the transmitter state on
resume in any situation.  This happens after the driver's resume method is
called by the suspend core (class devices resume after the devices they are
attached to have been resumed).

The following drivers need to check if they need to explicitly block
their transmitters in their own suspend handlers (maintainers Cc'd):

	drivers/net/usb/hso.c

95dac04004 mac80211: small rate control changes
This patch fixes mac80211 to not rely on the rate control
algorithm to update sta->tx_retry_failed and sta->tx_retry_count
(even if we don't currently use them), removes a number of
completely unused values we don't even show in debugfs and
changes the code in ieee80211_tx_status() to not look up the
sta_info repeatedly.

The only behaviour change here would be not calling the rate
control function rate_control_tx_status() when no sta_info is
found, but all rate control algorithms ignore such calls anyway.

81c0652386 mac80211 hwsim: verify sta pointers
In analogy with the previous patch to make mac80211-hwsim
verify that the virtual interface pointers are correct,
this makes it very that it knows about all station structs.

17741cdc26 mac80211: share STA information with driver
This patch changes mac80211 to share some more data about
stations with drivers. Should help iwlwifi and ath9k when
 they get around to updating, and might also help with
implementing rate control algorithms without internals.

8aa21e6fd7 mac80211 hwsim: verify vif pointers
mac80211-hwsim is a debugging tool for mac80211, and as such
it can very well verify that mac80211 isn't passing junk to
drivers, especially the vif pointer is prone to this because
for vlan interfaces the AP interface pointer needs to be passed.
This makes mac80211-hwsim add a magic cookie to the private vif
area and verify it whenever an operation is called that gets a
vif pointer.
