eb85de3f84 iwlegacy: fix IBSS mode crashes
We should not switch to non-IBSS channels when working in IBSS mode,
otherwise there are microcode errors, and after some time system
crashes.

This bug is only observable when software scan is used in IBSS mode,
so should be considered as regression after:

commit 0263aa4529
Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>
Date:   Tue Mar 29 11:24:21 2011 +0200

    iwl3945: disable hw scan by default

However IBSS mode check, which this patch add again, was removed by

commit b2f30e8bdd
Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
Date:   Thu Jan 21 07:32:20 2010 -0800

    iwlwifi: remove IBSS channel sanity check

That commit claim that mac80211 will not use non-IBSS channel in IBSS
mode, what definitely is not true. Bug probably should be fixed in
mac80211, but that will require more work, so better to apply that patch
temporally, and provide proper mac80211 fix latter.

Check status bits with mutex taken, because when we wait for mutex
unlock, status can change. Patch should also make remaining sync
commands be send with priv->mutex taken. That will prevent execute
these commands when we are currently reset firmware, what could

81e63263aa iwlegacy: fix enqueue hcmd race conditions
We mark command as huge by using meta->flags from other (non huge) command,
but flags can be possibly overridden, when non huge command is enqueued,
what can lead to:

WARNING: at lib/dma-debug.c:696 dma_debug_device_change+0x1a3/0x1f0()
DMA-API: device driver has pending DMA allocations while released from device [count=1]

To fix introduce additional CMD_MAPPED to mark command as mapped and
serialize iwl_enqueue_hcmd() with iwl_tx_cmd_complete() using
hcmd_lock. Serialization will also fix possible race conditions,
because q->read_ptr, q->write_ptr are modified/used in parallel.

Do not change callback, I did (and fixed) that mistake in iwlagn.

069f40fc07 iwl4965: fix skb usage after free

commit a120e912eb
Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>
Date:   Fri Feb 19 15:47:33 2010 -0800

    iwlwifi: sanity check before counting number of tfds can be free

we use skb->data after calling ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe(), which
could free skb instantly.

On current kernels I do not observe practical problems related with
bug, but on 2.6.35.y it cause random system hangs when stressing
wireless link, making bisection of other problems impossible.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683571
and sometimes kernel crashes:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688252

Also with hw scan there are very bad performance on some systems
as reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671366

Since Intel no longer supports 3945, there is no chance to get proper
firmware fixes, we need workaround problems by disable hardware scanning

7bb4568372 mac80211: make tx() operation return void
The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).

Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.

Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

6ebacbb79d mac80211: rename RX_FLAG_TSFT
The flag isn't very descriptive -- the intention
is that the driver provides a TSF timestamp at
the beginning of the MPDU -- make that clearer
by renaming the flag to RX_FLAG_MACTIME_MPDU.
