2ae1b8b35f libertas: fix cmdpendingq locking
We occasionally see list corruption using libertas.

While we haven't been able to diagnose this precisely, we have spotted
a possible cause: cmdpendingq is generally modified with driver_lock
held. However, there are a couple of points where this is not the case.

Fix up those operations to execute under the lock, it seems like
the correct thing to do and will hopefully improve the situation.

eb85de3f84 iwlegacy: fix IBSS mode crashes
We should not switch to non-IBSS channels when working in IBSS mode,
otherwise there are microcode errors, and after some time system
crashes.

This bug is only observable when software scan is used in IBSS mode,
so should be considered as regression after:

    iwlwifi: remove IBSS channel sanity check

That commit claim that mac80211 will not use non-IBSS channel in IBSS
mode, what definitely is not true. Bug probably should be fixed in
mac80211, but that will require more work, so better to apply that patch
temporally, and provide proper mac80211 fix latter.

99aa55b66e ath9k: Fix a warning due to a queued work during S3 state
during suspend/S3 state drv_flush is called from mac80211 irrespective of
interface count. In ath9k we queue a work in ath9k_flush which we expect
to be cancelled in the drv_stop call back. during suspend process mac80211
calls drv_stop only when the interface count(local->count) is non-zero.
unfortunately when the network manager is enabled, drv_flush is called
while drv_stop is not called as local->count reaches '0'.
	So fix this by simply checking for the device presence in the
drv_flush call back in the driver before queueing work or anything else.
this patch fixes the following WARNING

2232d31bf1 ath9k: fix the return value of ath_stoprecv
The patch 'ath9k_hw: fix stopping rx DMA during resets' added code to detect
a condition where rx DMA was stopped, but the MAC failed to enter the idle
state. This condition requires a hardware reset, however the return value
of ath_stoprecv was 'true' in that case, which allowed it to skip the reset
when issuing a fast channel change.

5882da02e9 ath9k_hw: fix stopping rx DMA during resets
During PHY errors, the MAC can sometimes fail to enter an idle state on older
hardware (before AR9380) after an rx stop has been requested.

This typically shows up in the kernel log with messages like these:

ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c:504 ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k]()
Call Trace:
[<8023f0e8>] dump_stack+0x8/0x34
[<80075050>] warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xa4
[<80075094>] warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x24

[<80d642cc>] ath_set_channel+0xbc/0x270 [ath9k]
[<80d65254>] ath_radio_disable+0x4a4/0x7fc [ath9k]

When this happens, the state that the MAC enters is easy to identify and
does not result in bogus DMA traffic, however to ensure a working state
after a channel change, the hardware should still be reset.

This patch adds detection for this specific MAC state, after which the above
warnings completely disappear in my tests.

a6756da9ea p54: Initialize extra_len in p54_tx_80211
This patch fixes a very serious off-by-one bug in
the driver, which could leave the device in an
unresponsive state.

The problem was that the extra_len variable [used to
reserve extra scratch buffer space for the firmware]
was left uninitialized. Because p54_assign_address
later needs the value to reserve additional space,
the resulting frame could be to big for the small
device's memory window and everything would
immediately come to a grinding halt.

It turned out that the regdomain 'APL7_FCCA' was not mapped yet.

FCC_CTL and FCCA maps to FCC_CTL as well, so the attached patch

09b661b332 wl12xx: fix potential buffer overflow in testmode nvs push
We were allocating the size of the NVS file struct and not checking
whether the length of the buffer passed was correct before copying it
into the allocated memory.  This is a security hole because buffer
overflows can occur if the userspace passes a bigger file than what is
expected.

With this patch, we check if the size of the data passed from
userspace matches the size required.

2fc713b204 zd1211rw: remove URB_SHORT_NOT_OK flag in zd_usb_iowrite16v_async()
Patch removes the bogus flag introduced by upstream commit
eefdbec1ea. Old code had buffer length check
that new code tried to handle with URB_SHORT_NOT_OK flag. With USB debugging
enabled bogus flag caused usb_submit_urb fail.

Remove URB_SHORT_NOT_OK flag and add buffer length check to urb completion
handler.

ffd8c746fb iwlegacy: fix bugs in change_interface
If change_interface gets invoked during a firmware
restart, it may crash; prevent that from happening
by checking if ctx->vif is assigned.

Additionally, in my initial commit I forgot to set
the vif->p2p variable correctly, so fix that too.

24047e2c4f carl9170: Fix tx aggregation problems with some clients
Some clients seem to rely upon the reception of BlockAckReqs to flush
their rx reorder buffer. In order to fix aggregation for these clients
carl9170 should set IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU_NO_BACK to generate a
BlockAckReq if the transmission of an AMPDU subframe fails.

This fixes aggregation problems with Intel 5100 Windows STAs (and maybe
others as well).

0263aa4529 iwl3945: disable hw scan by default
After new NetworkManager 0.8.996 changes, hardware scanning is causing
microcode errors as reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683571
and sometimes kernel crashes:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688252

Also with hw scan there are very bad performance on some systems
as reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671366

Since Intel no longer supports 3945, there is no chance to get proper
firmware fixes, we need workaround problems by disable hardware scanning
by default.

d78f4b3e2c ath9k: Fix TX queue stuck issue.
commit 86271e460a introduced a
regression that caused mac80211 queues in stopped state.

ath_drain_all_txq is called in driver flush which would reset
the stopped flag and the mac80211 queues were never started
after that. iperf traffic is completely stalled due to this issue.

Restart the mac80211 queues in driver flush only if the txqs were
drained.

19b9675069 ath9k: Fix kernel panic caused by invalid rate index access.
With the recent tx status optimization in mac80211, we bail out as
and and when invalid rate index is found. So the behavior of resetting
rate idx to -1 and count to 0 has changed for the rate indexes that
were not part of the driver's retry series.

This has resulted in ath9k using incorrect rate table index which
caused the system to panic. Ideally ath9k need to loop only for the
indexes that were part of the retry series and so simply use hw->max_rates
as the loop counter.

Pasted the stack trace of the panic issue for reference.
