It fixes L2CAP socket based security level elevation during a
connection. The HID profile needs this (for keyboards) and it is the only
way to achieve the security level elevation when using the management
interface to talk to the kernel (hence the management enabling patch
being the one that exposes this issue).
It enables the userspace a security level change when the socket is
already connected and create a way to notify the socket the result of the
request. At the moment of the request the socket is made non writable, if
the request fails the connections closes, otherwise the socket is made
writable again, POLL_OUT is emmited.

In commit b0302ab, the rtlwifi family of drivers was converted to use
asynchronous firmware loading. Unfortumately, the implementation was
racy, and the ieee80211 routines could be started before rtl_init_core()
was called to setup the data.
This patch fixes the bug noted in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43187.

By default, iwlwifi uses order-1 pages (8 KB) to store incoming frames,
but doesnt say so in skb->truesize.
This makes very possible to exhaust kernel memory since these skb evade
normal socket memory accounting.
As struct ieee80211_hdr is going to be pulled before calling IP stack,
there is no need to use dev_alloc_skb() to reserve NET_SKB_PAD bytes.
alloc_skb() is ok in this driver, allowing more tailroom.
Pull beginning of frame in skb header, in the hope we can reuse order-1
pages in the driver immediately for small frames and reduce their
truesize to the minimum (linear skbs)

This reverts commit a844adfd7b.
The commit a844adfd is degrading rx sensitivity of lower rate in
HT40 mode and it is confirmed that reverting the change is
improving rx sensitivity.
spur_freq_sd (for self-corr in AGC) is defined with respect to the
center of each 20MHz channel while spur_phase_delta (for self-corr
in Rx and spur data filter) is defined with respect to the center
of current RF channel.
So in short, we need to subtract spur_freq_sd (for self-corr in AGC)
by the offset between the center of primary20 and the center of RF
channel in SW. This offset could be +/10 MHz for dynamic 40.

EAP frames for stations in an AP VLAN are sent on the main AP interface

For that to work properly, sta_info_get_bss must be used instead of

Currently SDIO glue frees it's own structure before calling
wl1251_free_hw(), which in turn calls ieee80211_unregister_hw().
The later call may result in a need to communicate with the chip
to stop it (as it happens now if the interface is still up before
rmmod), which means calls are made back to the glue, resulting in
freed memory access.
Fix this by freeing glue data last.

There's no need to reload the configuration after a failed

Newer devices have 20 (5000 series) or 30 (6000 series)
hardware queues, rather than the 16 that 4965 had. This
was added to the driver a long time ago, but improperly:
the queue registers for the higher queues aren't just
continuations of the registers for the first 16 queues,
they are in other places. Therefore, the hardware would
lock up when trying to activate queue 16 or above and
the device would have to be restarted.
Thanks goes to Emmanuel who identified this and told me
how the queue programming should be done.
Note that we don't use queues 20 and higher today and
doing so needs more work than this.

Driver incorrectly validates command completion: instead of waiting
for a command to be acknowledged it continues execution. Most of the
time driver gets acknowledge of the command completion in a tasklet
before it executes the next one. But sometimes it sends the next
command before it gets acknowledge for the previous one. In such a
case one of the following error messages appear in the log:
Failed to send SYSTEM_CONFIG: Already sending a command.
Failed to send ASSOCIATE: Already sending a command.
Failed to send TX_POWER: Already sending a command.
After that you need to reload the driver to get it working again.

The 'ath9k_hw_update_regulatory_maxpower'
helper function has been introduced by
commit a55f858852
(ath9k_hw: Cleanup TX power calculation for AR9287).
Updating of the max_power_level value has been moved
into the helper function in that change, however the
removed code from 'ath9k_hw_ar9287_set_txpower' has
not been replaced with a call of the new helper
function.
Due to that missing call, retrieving tx power for 2x2
and 3x3 chainmask is not handled properly. During the
calculation of the tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmasks
the values are reduced. Those reductions must be
compensated during retrieving.
Fix this by adding the missing call of the helper
function.

In order to unifying regulatory limit handling
commit ca2c68cc7b
(ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling) introduced
a new helper function 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower',
and the direct calls of 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'
has been replaced by a call of the helper function.
This caused a change in the behaviour of the
'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' function. The purpose
of that function is to calculate and store the
rate txpower table and the regulatory limit without
touching the hardware registers. Before the commit,
the 'test' parameter of the function was passed to
the 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'. Now the calling of
the 'set_txpower' function happens indirectly through
'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', so the 'test' argument of
the 'set_txpower' is always 'false'.
This patch restores the original behaviour of
'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' by adding a new
argument to 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower.'

The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to
acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When

a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is
reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775.
The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could
be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from
within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync()
by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and
