Its possible for cfg80211 to have scheduled the work and for
the global workqueue to not have kicked in prior to a cfg80211
driver's regulatory hint or wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory().
Although this is very unlikely its possible and should fix
this race. When this race would happen you are expected to have
hit a null pointer dereference panic.

Calling cancel_delayed_work() from inside
spin_lock_irqsave, introduces a potential deadlock.
As explained by Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
A - lock
T - timer
phase CPU 1 CPU 2
---------------------------------------------
some place that calls
cancel_timer_sync()
(which is the | code)
lock-irq(A)
| "lock-irq"(T)
| "unlock"(T)
| wait(T)
unlock(A)
timer softirq
"lock"(T)
run(T)
"unlock"(T)
irq handler
lock(A)
unlock(A)
Now all that again, interleaved, leading to deadlock:
lock-irq(A)
"lock"(T)
run(T)
IRQ during or maybe
before run(T) --> lock(A)
"lock-irq"(T)
wait(T)
We fix this by moving the call to cancel_delayed_work() into workqueue.
There are cases where the work may not actually be queued or running
at the time we are trying to cancel it, but cancel_delayed_work() is
able to deal with this.
Also cleanup iwl_set_mode related to this call. This function
(iwl_set_mode) is only called when bringing interface up and there will
thus not be any scanning done. No need to try to cancel scanning.
Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13224, which was also
reported at http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=124081921903223&w=2 .

Commit e8f055f0c3 ("ath5k: Update reset code") subtly changed the
code that computes floating point values for the PHY3_TIMING register
such that the exponent is off by a decimal point, which can cause
problems with OFDM channel operation.
get_bitmask_order() actually returns the highest bit set plus one,
whereas the previous code wanted the highest bit set. Instead, use
ilog2 which is what this code is really calculating. Also check
coef_scaled to handle the (invalid) case where we need log2(0).

Another design flaw in wireless extensions (is anybody
surprised?) in the way it handles the iw_encode_ext
structure: The structure is part of the 'extra' memory
but contains the key length explicitly, instead of it
just being the length of the extra buffer - size of
the struct and using the explicit key length only for
the get operation (which only writes it).
Therefore, we have this layout:
extra: +-------------------------+
| struct iw_encode_ext { |
| ... |
| u16 key_len; |
| u8 key[0]; |
| }; |
+-------------------------+
| key material |
+-------------------------+
Now, all drivers I checked use ext->key_len without
checking that both key_len and the struct fit into the
extra buffer that has been copied from userspace. This
leads to a buffer overrun while reading that buffer,
depending on the driver it may be possible to specify
arbitrary key_len or it may need to be a proper length
for the key algorithm specified.
Thankfully, this is only exploitable by root, but root
can actually cause a segfault or use kernel memory as
a key (which you can even get back with siocgiwencode
or siocgiwencodeext from the key buffer).
Fix this by verifying that key_len fits into the buffer
along with struct iw_encode_ext.

One of the purposes of bonding is to allow for redundant links, and failover
correctly if the cable is pulled. If all the members of a bonded device have
no carrier present, the bonded device itself needs to report no carrier present
to user space so management tools (like routing daemons) can respond.
Bonding in 802.3ad mode does not work correctly for this because it incorrectly
chooses a link that is down as a possible aggregator.

If bridge is configured with no STP and forwarding delay of 0 (which
is typical for virtualization) then when link starts it will flood all
packets for the first 20 seconds.
This bug was introduced by a combination of earlier changes:
* forwarding database uses hold time of zero to indicate
user wants to always flood packets
* optimzation of the case of forwarding delay of 0 avoids the initial
timer tick
The fix is to just skip all the topology change detection code if
kernel STP is not being used.

Currently the bridge catches all STP packets; even if STP is turned
off. This prevents other systems (which do have STP turned on)
from being able to detect loops in the network.
With this patch, if STP is off, then any packet sent to the STP
multicast group address is forwarded to all ports.
Based on earlier patch by Joakim Tjernlund with changes
to go through forwarding (not local chain), and optimization
that only last octet needs to be checked.

If a DHCP server is delayed, it's possible for the client to receive the
DHCPOFFER after it has already sent out a new DHCPDISCOVER message from
a second interface. The client then sends out a DHCPREQUEST from the
second interface, but the server doesn't recognize the device and
rejects the request.
This patch simply tracks the current device being configured and throws
away the OFFER if it is not intended for the current device. A more
sophisticated approach would be to put the OFFER information into the

Ian Campbell noticed that since "Eliminate thousands of warnings with
gcc 3.2 build" (commit 57adc4d2db) all
WARN_ON()'s currently appear to come from warn_slowpath_null(), eg:
WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:143 warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x20()
because now that warn_slowpath_null() is in the call path, the
__builtin_return_address(0) returns that, rather than the place that
caused the warning.
Fix this by splitting up the warn_slowpath_null/fmt cases differently,
using a common helper function, and getting the return address in the
right place. This also happens to avoid the unnecessary stack usage for
the non-stdargs case, and just generally cleans things up.
Make the function name printout use %pS while at it.

The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return
