dd04519388 smsc911x: fix BUG if module is removed while interface is up
If the module is removed while its interface is up, smsc911x_stop is not
called until after smsc911x_drv_remove has disposed of phy_dev.  This
patch changes the stop method to handle this situation.

This is a different problem to the one reported by dfoley@telus.net.

908a7a16b8 net: Remove unused netdev arg from some NAPI interfaces.
When the napi api was changed to separate its 1:1 binding to the net_device
struct, the netif_rx_[prep|schedule|complete] api failed to remove the now
vestigual net_device structure parameter.  This patch cleans up that api by
properly removing it..

05a8c1cbfe pkt_sched: Remove smp_wmb() in qdisc_watchdog()
While implementing a TCQ_F_THROTTLED flag there was used an smp_wmb()
in qdisc_watchdog(), but since this flag is practically used only in
sch_netem(), and since it's not even clear what reordering is avoided
here (TCQ_F_THROTTLED vs. __QDISC_STATE_SCHED?) it seems the barrier
could be safely removed.

69fc405318 tg3: Remove unused cfgspc device members
This patch removes the pci_bist and pci_hdr_type members from the
device structure and removes the code that references them.  They are
not really used.

The patch rounds out the changes by moving the pci_cmd member to plug
a structure hole that would have been created.  On 32-bit systems, this
movement removes a subsequent structure hole later in the structure. On
64-bit systems though, the movement merely consolidates two holes into
one larger hole.

520eb82076 mac80211: implement dynamic power save
This patch implements dynamic power save for mac80211. Basically it
means enabling power save mode after an idle period. Implementing it
dynamically gives a good compromise of low power consumption and low
latency. Some hardware have support for this in firmware, but some
require the host to do it.

The dynamic power save is implemented by adding an timeout to
ieee80211_subif_start_xmit(). The timeout can be enabled from userspace
with Wireless Extensions. For example, the command below enables the
dynamic power save and sets the time timeout to 500 ms:

iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m

Power save now only works with devices which handle power save in firmware.
It's also disabled by default and the heuristics when and how to enable is
considered as a policy decision and will be left for the userspace to handle.
In case the firmware has support for this, drivers can disable this feature
with IEEE80211_HW_NO_STACK_DYNAMIC_PS.

Big thanks to Johannes Berg for the help with the design and code.

ce7c9111a9 mac80211: track master queue status
This is a preparation for the dynamic power save support. In future there are
two paths to stop the master queues and we need to track this properly to
avoid starting queues incorrectly. Implement this by adding a status
array for each queue.

The original idea and design is from Johannes Berg, I just did
the implementation based on his notes. All the bugs are mine, of course.

be2864cfff ath9k: Fixed RX decryption status reporting
The RX code in ath9k uses sc_keymap to figure out whether a default
key was used. However, the default key entries in sc_keymap were
always set and as such, frames could have been claimed to be decrypted
by hardware when they were not. This can cause problems especially
with TKIP since mac80211 is validating the Michael MIC in the frame
and this will result in MIC failure and potentially TKIP
countermeasures if the frame was not decrypted correctly.

Change key cache slot allocation to mark only the keys that really
have been used in sc_keymap to avoid the issue. The key cache slot
selection routines are now internally avoiding the slots that may be
needed for TKIP group keys.

f1bc4ac61f iwlwifi: use GFP_KERNEL to allocate Rx SKB memory
Previously we allocate Rx SKB with GFP_ATOMIC flag. This is because we need
to hold a spinlock to protect the two rx_used and rx_free lists operation
in the rxq.

	spin_lock();
	...
	element = rxq->rx_used.next;
	element->skb = alloc_skb(..., GFP_ATOMIC);
	list_del(element);
	list_add_tail(&element->list, &rxq->rx_free);
	...
	spin_unlock();

After spliting the rx_used delete and rx_free insert into two operations,
we don't require the skb allocation in an atomic context any more (the
function itself is scheduled in a workqueue).

	spin_lock();
	...
	element = rxq->rx_used.next;
	list_del(element);
	...
	spin_unlock();
	...
	element->skb = alloc_skb(..., GFP_KERNEL);
	...
	spin_lock()
	...
	list_add_tail(&element->list, &rxq->rx_free);
	...
	spin_unlock();

This patch should fix the "iwlagn: Can not allocate SKB buffers" warning
we see recently.

da027ca00a ath9k: Fix TX status reporting for retries and MCS index
The count field in struct ieee80211_tx_rate does not include the final
successful attempt, so only report retries here.

Fix the struct ieee80211_tx_rate::idx field when MCS was used. It is
supposed to be the MCS index, not an internal index to the rate
control algorithm table.

8d6f658e21 mac80211: Remove radiotap rate-present flag for HT
Since we do not currently report HT rates (MCS index) in radiotap
header for HT rates, we should not claim the rate is present. The rate
octet itself is used as padding in this case, so only the it_present
flag needs to be removed in case of HT rates.

d858822733 rtl8187: Fix crash on unload when using SLUB debug
Reported-by: Hin-Tak Leung <htl10@users.sourceforge.net>

After the code was modified to use urb anchors ("rtl8187: Use usb anchor
facilities to manage urbs"), rtl8187 began generating an intermittent GPF
on shutdown when using SLUB with debugging enabled. Furthermore, rebooting
the system with a ping running caused a GPF every time. There are two problems:
(1) incorrect locking in the rtl8187_rx_cb() routine, a pre-existing bug that
apparently had not been triggered before, and (2) duplicate freeing of receive
skbs that was probably introduced with the change to anchors.
