b092d92a68 Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next
John W. Linville says:

====================
Included is a Bluetooth pull -- Gustavo says:

"These are the Bluetooth bits for inclusion in 3.8, there is basically one big
thing here which is the High Speed patches from Andrei, he did a lot of work on
A2MP and management of AMP devices. The rest are mostly clean up and bug
fixes."

Also included is an NFC pull -- Samuel says:

"With this one we have:

- pn544 p2p support.
- pn544 physical and HCI layers separation. We are getting the pn544 driver
  ready to support non i2c physical layers.
- LLCP SNL (Service Name Lookup). This is the NFC p2p service discovery
  protocol.
- LLCP datagram sockets (connection less) support.
- IDR library usage for NFC devices indexes assignement.
- NFC netlink extension for setting and getting LLCP link characteristics.
- Various code style fixes and cleanups spread over the pn533, LLCP, HCI and
  pn544 code."

There are a couple of mac80211 pulls as well -- Johannes says:

"Please pull my mac80211-next tree to get the first round of new features
for 3.8. We have:
 * finally, the mac80211 multi-channel work
 * scan improvements:
   - bg scan
   - scan flush
   - forced AP scan
 * cfg80211 tracing
 * a bit of new code to allow implementing SAE (secure authentication of
   equals) in managed mode

Along with a few random improvements, features and fixes."

and...

"Please pull from mac80211-next (per below pull request) to get a few
updates. Most important is probably the fix for the WDS regression that
my previous pull request introduced. Other than that, I have some
tracing code, two mesh updates and a change to allow drivers to
calculate the AES CMAC subkeys without having to implement the GF_mulx
operation themselves."

On top of that are the usual updates to iwlwifi, ath9k, rt2x00,
brcmfmac, mwifiex, and a few others here and there.  Of note is the
addition of the ar5523 driver, ported from an original FreeBSD driver.

b26ddd8130 sctp: Clean up type-punning in sctp_cmd_t union
Lots of points in the sctp_cmd_interpreter function treat the sctp_cmd_t arg as
a void pointer, even though they are written as various other types.  Theres no
need for this as doing so just leads to possible type-punning issues that could
cause crashes, and if we remain type-consistent we can actually just remove the
void * member of the union entirely.

Change Notes:

v2)
	* Dropped chunk that modified SCTP_NULL to create a marker pattern
	 should anyone try to use a SCTP_NULL() assigned sctp_arg_t, Assigning
	 to .zero provides the same effect and should be faster, per Vlad Y.

v3)
	* Reverted part of V2, opting to use memset instead of .zero, so that
	 the entire union is initalized thus avoiding the i164 speculative load
	 problems previously encountered, per Dave M..  Also rewrote
	 SCTP_[NO]FORCE so as to use common infrastructure a little more

e6c022a4fa tcp: better retrans tracking for defer-accept
For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility,
we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers
while no SYNACK is sent.

SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for
which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent
so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into
accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless
retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost)

TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary
retransmits.

Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields :

num_retrans : number of retransmit
num_timeout : number of timeouts

num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout,
regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to
compute the exponential timeout.

Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans
only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded.

Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans
when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN.
Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits.

Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS
only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

3c68198e75 sctp: Make hmac algorithm selection for cookie generation dynamic
Currently sctp allows for the optional use of md5 of sha1 hmac algorithms to
generate cookie values when establishing new connections via two build time
config options.  Theres no real reason to make this a static selection.  We can
add a sysctl that allows for the dynamic selection of these algorithms at run
time, with the default value determined by the corresponding crypto library
availability.
This comes in handy when, for example running a system in FIPS mode, where use
of md5 is disallowed, but SHA1 is permitted.

Note: This new sysctl has no corresponding socket option to select the cookie
hmac algorithm.  I chose not to implement that intentionally, as RFC 6458
contains no option for this value, and I opted not to pollute the socket option
namespace.

Change notes:
v2)
	* Updated subject to have the proper sctp prefix as per Dave M.
	* Replaced deafult selection options with new options that allow
	  developers to explicitly select available hmac algs at build time
	  as per suggestion by Vlad Y.

rt6i_siblings.

ECMP routes can be added in one shot, with RTA_MULTIPATH attribute or one after

54d83efa44 ipvs: fix build errors related to config option combinations
Fix two build error introduced by commit 63dca2c0:
 "ipvs: Fix faulty IPv6 extension header handling in IPVS"

First build error was fairly trivial and can occur, when
CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 is disabled.

The second build error was tricky, and can occur when deselecting
both all Netfilter and IPVS, but selecting CONFIG_IPV6.  This is
caused by "kernel/sysctl_binary.c" including "net/ip_vs.h", which
includes "linux/netfilter_ipv6/ip6_tables.h" causing include
of "include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h" which then cannot find
the typedef nf_hookfn.

Fix this by only including "linux/netfilter_ipv6/ip6_tables.h" in
case of CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 as its already used to guard the usage
of ipv6_find_hdr().

on whether a new BSS is being created or joined. When joining
an existing IBSS network, beaconing has to start only after
a TSF-sync has happened - this is explained in 11.1.4.

Introduce a new parameter in the BSS information structure to
indicate creator/joiner mode.

15d6030b4b cfg80211: add support for flushing old scan results
Add an NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH flag that causes old bss cache
entries to be flushed on scan completion. This is useful for
collecting guaranteed fresh scan/survey result (e.g. on resume).

For normal scan, flushing only happens on successful completion
of a scan; i.e. it does not happen if the scan is aborted.
For scheduled scan, previous scan results are flushed everytime
when we get new scan results.

This feature is enabled by default. Drivers can disable it by
unsetting the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_FLUSH flag.

Save the AP's VHT capabilities (in managed
mode) and make them available to the driver
in the station information.

Unlike HT capabilities, they aren't restricted
to the common capabilities, so drivers must be
aware of their own capabilities.

04ecd2578e mac80211: track needed RX chains for channel contexts
On each channel that the device is operating on, it
may need to listen using one or more chains depending
on the SMPS settings of the interfaces using it. The
previous channel context changes completely removed
this ability (before, it was available as the SMPS
mode).

Add per-context tracking of the required static and
dynamic RX chains and notify the driver on changes.
To achieve this, track the chains and SMPS mode used
on each virtual interface and update the channel
context whenever this changes.

Channel context are the foundation for multi-channel
