d20ef63d32 mac80211: document ieee80211_rx() context requirement
ieee80211_rx() must be called with softirqs disabled
since the networking stack requires this for netif_rx()
and some code in mac80211 can assume that it can not
be processing its own tasklet and this call at the same
time.

It may be possible to remove this requirement after a
careful audit of mac80211 and doing any needed locking
improvements in it along with disabling softirqs around
netif_rx(). An alternative might be to push all packet
processing to process context in mac80211, instead of
to the tasklet, and add other synchronisation.

edbfdcceb4 b43: fix ieee80211_rx() context
Due to the way it interacts with the networking
stack and other parts of mac80211, ieee80211_rx()
must be called with disabled softirqs.

51f98f1313 mac80211: fix ibss race
When a scan completes, we call ieee80211_sta_find_ibss(),
which is also called from other places. When the scan was
done in software, there's no problem as both run from the
single-threaded mac80211 workqueue and are thus serialised
against each other, but with hardware scan the completion
can be in a different context and race against callers of
this function from the workqueue (e.g. due to beacon RX).
So instead of calling ieee80211_sta_find_ibss() directly,
just arm the timer and have it fire, scheduling the work,
which will invoke ieee80211_sta_find_ibss() (if that is
appropriate in the current state).

2facba769d iwlwifi: incorrect method used for finding valid OTP blocks
The address stored in the next link address is a word address but when
reading the OTP blocks, a byte address is used. Also if the blocks are
full and the last link pointer is not zero, then none of the blocks are
valid so return an error.

The algorithm is simply valid blocks have a next address and that
address's contents is zero.

Using the wrong address for the next link address gets arbitrary data,
obviously. In cases seen, the first block is considered valid when it is not.

If the block has in fact been invalidated there may be old data or
there may be no data, bad data, or partial data, there is no way of
telling. Without this patch it is possible that a device with valid OTP data
is unable to work.

fbc44bf717 mac80211: fix vlan and optimise RX
When receiving data frames, we can send them only to
the interface they belong to based on transmitting
station (this doesn't work for probe requests). Also,
don't try to handle other frames for AP_VLAN at all
since those interface should only receive data.

Additionally, the transmit side must check that the
station we're sending a frame to is actually on the
interface we're transmitting on, and not transmit
packets to functions that live on other interfaces,
so validate that as well.

Another bug fix is needed in sta_info.c where in the
VLAN case when adding/removing stations we overwrite
the sdata variable we still need.
