Ben Hutchings 356eebb2b3 sfc: Clean up MDIO flag setting
We often want to set or clear a flag in an MDIO register, but avoid
writing if no change is required since this can have side-effects.
Encapsulate this in a function, mdio_clause45_set_flag().

Neil Turton 28b581ab0a sfc: Add option to use a separate channel for TX completions
In a bidirectional forwarding test, we find that the best performance
is achieved by sending the TX completion interrupts from one NIC to a
CPU which shares an L2 cache with RX completion interrupts from the
other NIC.  To facilitate this, add an option (through a module
parameter) to create separate channels for RX and TX completion with
separate IRQs when MSI-X is available.

Ben Hutchings 2f7f573095 sfc: Work around unreliable strap pins
The SFC4000 has strap pins indicating the presence of SPI flash and/or
EEPROM.  These pins are also used for GPIO, and in some cases they may
be read wrongly at reset.  However, on production boards it must boot
from one or the other device, so we can assume the boot device is
present and read the board config from there.

Ben Hutchings be4ea89c8d sfc: Clean up waits for flash/EEPROM operations
Make falcon_spi_wait() ignore the write timer - it is only relevant to
write commands, it only works for the device that contains VPD, and it
might not be initialised properly at all.

Rename falcon_spi_fast_wait() to falcon_spi_wait_write(), reflecting
its use, and make it wait up to 10 ms (not 1 ms) since buffered writes
to EEPROM may take this long to complete.

Make both wait functions sleep instead of busy-waiting.

Replace wait for command completion at top of falcon_spi_cmd() with a
single poll; no command should be running when the function starts.

Correct some comments.

The 802.11 header is only padded to 32-bit boundary when the frame has
a non-zero length payload. In other words, control frames (e.g., ACK)
do not have a padding and we should not try to remove it. This fixes
monitor mode for short control frames. In addition, the hdrlen&3 use
is described in more detail to make it easier to understand how the
padding length is calculated.

This patch adds the ability to change the number of probe response retries sent
by the mesh interface.

In dense networks it is recommended to change this value to zero to reduce
traffic congestion.

Jouni Malinen b7a530d82c mac80211: Disable requests for new scans in AP mode
AP mode operations are seriously affected if mac80211 runs through a
multi-second scan while the AP is trying to send Beacon frames on the
operation channel. While this could be implemented in a way that does
not cause too many problems, it is not very simple and will require
synchronization with Beacon frame scheduling in the drivers (scan one
channel at a time between Beacon frames). Furthermore, such scanning
takes quite a bit longer time and existing userspace applications
would be likely to timeout while waiting for the results.

For now, just refuse requests for new scans (SIOCSIWSCAN) when in AP
mode. In practice, this moves the rejection from iwl* drivers into
mac80211 to make it apply to every mac80211-based driver.

This issue shows up in associated stations getting disconnected when
something (e.g., Network Manager) requests a scan while the interface
is in AP mode. When doing this continuously (e.g., NM does it every 120
seconds), the network gets close to useless.

Helmut Schaa 14a4dfe2ff ipw2200: fix scanning while associated
This patch fixes sporadic firmware restarts when scanning while associated.

The firmware will quietly cancel a scan (while associated) if the dwell time
for a channel to be scanned is larger than the time it may stay away from the
operating channel (because of DTIM catching). Unfortunately the driver is not
notified about the canceled scan and therefore the scan watchdog timeout will
be hit and the driver causes a firmware restart which results in
disassociation. This mainly happens on passive channels which use a dwell time
of 120 whereas a typical beacon interval is around 100.

The patch changes the dwell time for passive channels to be slightly smaller
than the actual beacon interval to work around the firmware issue. Furthermore
the number of allowed beacon misses is increased from one to three as otherwise
most scans (while associated) won't complete successfully.

However scanning while associated will still fail in corner cases such as a
beacon intervals below 30.

Larry Finger c1db52b9d2 rtl8187: Use usb anchor facilities to manage urbs
When SLUB debugging is enabled in the kernel, and the boot command includes
the option "slub_debug=P", rtl8187 encounters a GPF due to a read-after-free
of a urb.

Following the example of changes in p54usb to fix the same problem, the code
has been modified to use the usb_anchor_urb() method. With this change, the
USB core handles the freeing of urb's.

This patch fixes the problem reported in Kernel Bugzilla #12185
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12185).
