7f38e5bc93 brcmsmac: use channel flags to restrict OFDM
brcmsmac cannot call freq_reg_info() during channel changes as it does
not hold cfg80211_lock, and as a result it generates a lockdep warning.
freq_reg_info() is being used to determine whether OFDM is allowed on
the current channel, so we can avoid the errant call by using the new
IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_OFDM for this purpose instead.

a0e881b7c1 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull second vfs pile from Al Viro:
 "The stuff in there: fsfreeze deadlock fixes by Jan (essentially, the
  deadlock reproduced by xfstests 068), symlink and hardlink restriction
  patches, plus assorted cleanups and fixes.

  Note that another fsfreeze deadlock (emergency thaw one) is *not*
  dealt with - the series by Fernando conflicts a lot with Jan's, breaks
  userland ABI (FIFREEZE semantics gets changed) and trades the deadlock
  for massive vfsmount leak; this is going to be handled next cycle.
  There probably will be another pull request, but that stuff won't be
  in it."

Fix up trivial conflicts due to unrelated changes next to each other in
drivers/{staging/gdm72xx/usb_boot.c, usb/gadget/storage_common.c}

644e8c0739 brcmsmac: restructure info->control.sta handling as it is goning to be removed soon.
brcmsmac uses info->control.sta while doing ampdu aggregation. This patch
changes the usage of the structure info->control.sta, as it is going to be
removed soon from struct ieee80211_tx_info. This patch is a pre-requisit in
order to add transmission power control (TPC) to the mac80211 subsystem.

a55b316e02 brcmsmac: remove PCIE() macro
Instead of checking if there is a PCIe core on the bus, better check if
hosttype is PCIe.

In the original submission to staging PCIE() checked, if the bustype is
PCI and the buscore is a PCIe core. Now we assume that all cores bcma
supports are PCIe based, so we just have to check if the bustype is PCI.

The old code bcmsmac currently uses searches for a PCIe core on the bus
and if there is one assumes that this is the buscore, which is wrong.
Some SoCs have a PCIe core operating in host mode and this is not the
bus core. The old code also caused a null pointer in
ai_get_buscoretype() and ai_get_buscorerev() if buscore was not set
because there was no PCIe core on the bus.

2cf5089ed5 brcm80211: smac: use mac80211 channel data for tx power limits
Currently the limits from the internal X2 domain are used, regardless
of what regulatory rules are in effect. Instead use the power limits set
by the higher-level regulatory support.

The rules for the MIMO power limits are still always derived from the
world domain, pending guidance from Broadcom as to how these need to be
handled. This will be fixed later, but using the limits from the world
domain works for now.

2ab631f48c brcm80211: smac: enable/disable radio on regulatory updates
Currently the radio disable state is only updated during initialization,
and it's only checked against the internal world domain. This is
unnecessary, as there are always valid channels against this domain.
Instead, check whether any channels are enabled in the regulatory
notifier and update the radio state accordingly.

cf03c5dac8 brcm80211: smac: inform mac80211 of the X2 regulatory domain
brcmsmac implements enforcement of regulatory constraints internally,
using a Broadcom-specific world roaming domain named X2. Besides being
duplication of functionality this can also conflict with mac80211's
regulatory implementation, as mac80211 is unaware of the X2 domain and
thus might apply a more restrictive domain.

This patch is the first step in making brcmsmac cooperate with
mac80211's regulatory support. X2 is registered as a custom domain with
mac80211, so that at least both implementations will be enforcing the
same set of constraints. The internal enforcement of rules is kept for
now; this will be converted over to relying on mac80211 regulatory
enforcement in later patches.

2810a619ca brcm80211: smac: clean up channel.c
Much of the code is either unsed or never put to any useful purpose.
Remove this code in advance of reworking the driver's regulatory
support.

a3ce5cc1a6 brcm80211: smac: remove unused code for 40MHz channels
This code has been kept around in anticipation of adding support for
40MHz channels, but subsequent patches to better integrate with mac80211
regulatory support will render it completely broken. Therefore we should
go ahead and remove it.

Keep these changes separate from other cleanup patches in order to make
it easier to resurrect 40MHz channel support at some point in the
future.

9169129552 brcm80211: smac: always set channel specified by mac80211
In some situations brcmsmac is choosing a channel internally. This makes
it difficult at times to know what channel to use for enforcing
regulatory constraints, so instead always use the channel from the
mac80211 configuration.

0bd8b79fe9 brcm80211: smac: don't set up tx power limits during initialization
This code is unnecessary, and in fact it's never executed because the
interface is never up when brcms_c_channels_commit() is called. Removing
it helps simplify the implementation of proper regulatory support.
