c1c5523dd1 can/netlink: add CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT
This patch adds the flag CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT. It is used as mask
or flag in the "struct can_ctrlmode".

It allows userspace via netlink to set a CAN controller into the special
"one-shot" mode. In this mode, if supported by the CAN controller, it
tries only once to deliver a CAN frame and aborts it if an error
(e.g.: arbitration lost) happens.

20dd3850bc can: Speed up CAN frame receiption by using ml_priv
this patch removes the hlist that contains the CAN receiver filter lists.
It uses the 'midlayer private' pointer ml_priv and links the filters directly
to the CAN netdevice, which allows to omit the walk through the complete CAN
devices hlist for each received CAN frame.

This patch is tested and does not remove any locking.

1f731b6375 rose_loopback_timer sets VC number <= ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC
cat /proc/net/rose displayed a rose sockets abnormal lci value, i.e.
greater than maximum number of VCs per neighbour allowed.
This number prevents further test of lci value during rose operations.

Example (lines shortened) :
[bernard]# cat /proc/net/rose
dest_addr  dest_call src_addr   src_call  dev   lci neigh st vs vr va
*          *         2080175520 F6BVP-1   rose0 000 00000  0  0  0  0
2080175520 FPAD-0    2080175520 WP-0      rose0 FFE 00001  3  0  0  0

Here are the default parameters :

linux/include/net/rose.h:#define ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC 50 /* Maximum number of VCs per neighbour */
linux/net/rose/af_rose.c:int sysctl_rose_maximum_vcs = ROSE_DEFAULT_MAXVC;

With the following patch, rose_loopback_timer() attributes a VC number
within limits.

35bb5cadc8 via-velocity: Give RX descriptors to the NIC later on open or MTU change
velocity_open() calls velocity_give_many_rx_descs(), which gives RX
descriptors to the NIC, before installing an interrupt handler or
calling velocity_init_registers().  I think this is very unsafe and it
appears to explain the bug report <http://bugs.debian.org/508527>.

On MTU change, velocity_give_many_rx_descs() is again called before
velocity_init_registers().  I'm not sure whether this is unsafe but
it does look wrong.

Therefore, move the calls to velocity_give_many_rx_descs() after
request_irq() and velocity_init_registers().

b3319b1052 fsl_pq_mdio: Fix iomem unmapping for non-eTSEC2.0 controllers
We use a rather complicated logic to support eTSEC and eTSEC2.0
registers maps in a single driver. Currently, the code tries to
unmap 'regs', but for non-eTSEC2.0 controllers 'regs' doesn't
point to a mapping start, and this might cause badness on probe

2f5cb43406 phylib: Properly reinitialize PHYs after hibernation
Since hibernation assumes power loss, we should fully reinitialize
PHYs (including platform fixups), as if PHYs were just attached.

This patch factors phy_init_hw() out of phy_attach_direct(), then
converts mdio_bus to dev_pm_ops and adds an appropriate restore()
callback.

 [cf9a7d50] [c01d514c] ugeth_resume+0x6c/0x13c
 [...]

Here is why.

On suspend:

- PM core starts suspending devices, ucc_geth_suspend gets called;

- ucc_geth calls phy_stop() on suspend. Note that phy_stop() is
  mostly asynchronous so it doesn't block ucc_geth's suspend routine,
  it just sets PHY_HALTED state and disables PHY's interrupts;

- Suddenly the state machine gets scheduled, it grabs the phydev->lock
  mutex and tries to process the PHY_HALTED state, so it calls
  phydev->adjust_link(phydev->attached_dev). In ucc_geth case
  adjust_link() calls msleep(), which reschedules the code flow back to
  PM core, which now finishes suspend and so we end up sleeping with
  phydev->lock mutex held.

On resume:

- PM core starts resuming devices (notice that nobody rescheduled
  the state machine yet, so the mutex is still held), the core calls
  ucc_geth's resume routine;

- ucc_geth_resume restarts the PHY with phy_stop()/phy_start()
  sequence, and the phy_*() calls are trying to grab the phydev->lock
  mutex. Here comes the deadlock.

This patch fixes the issue by stopping the state machine on suspend
and starting it again on resume.

mac80211 doesn't seem to use get_tx_stats anywhere currently. Just to be on

9588bbd552 cfg80211: add remain-on-channel command
Add new commands for requesting the driver to remain awake
on a specified channel for the specified amount of time
(and another command to cancel such an operation). This
can be used to implement userspace-controlled off-channel
operations, like Public Action frame exchange on another
channel than the operation channel.

The off-channel operation should behave similarly to scan,
i.e. the local station (if associated) moves into power
save mode to request the AP to buffer frames for it and
then moves to the other channel to allow the off-channel
operation to be completed. The duration parameter can be
used to request enough time to receive a response from
the target station.

The off-channel operations for going into power save mode (station
mode) or stop beaconing (AP/IBSS) are not limited to scanning. Move
these into a separate file and allow them to be used for other
purposes, too.

0c1ad2cac1 mac80211: proper bss private data handling
cfg80211 offers private data for each BSS struct,
which mac80211 uses. However, mac80211 uses internal
and external (cfg80211) BSS pointers interchangeably
and has a hack to put the cfg80211 bss struct into
the private struct.

Remove this hack, properly converting between the
pointers wherever necessary.

8e664fb3fd mac80211: split up and insert custom IEs correctly
Currently, we insert all user-specified IEs before the HT
IE for association, and after the HT IE for probe requests.
For association, that's correct only if the user-specified
IEs are RSN only, incorrect in all other cases including
WPA. Change this to split apart the user-specified IEs in
two places for association: before the HT IE (e.g. RSN),
after the HT IE (generally empty right now I think?) and
after WMM (all other vendor-specific IEs). For probes,
split the IEs in different places to be correct according
to the spec.

77c8144ad3 mac80211: refactor association
Refactor the code to reserve an skb of the right size
(instead of hoping 200 bytes are enough forever), and
also put HT IE generation into an own function.

Additionally, put the HT IE before the vendor-specific
WMM IE. This still leaves things not quite ordered
correctly, due to user-specified IEs, add a note about
that for now.

af6b63741c mac80211: generalise work handling
In order to use auth/assoc for different purposes
other than MLME, it needs to be split up. For other
purposes, a generic work handling (potentially on
another channel) will be useful.

To achieve that, this patch moves much of the MLME
work handling out of mlme into a new work API. The
API can currently handle probing a specific AP,
authentication and association. The MLME previously
handled probe/authentication as one step and will
continue to do so, but they are separate in the new
work handling.

Work items are RCU-managed to be able to check for
existence of an item for a specific frame in the RX
path, but they can be re-used which the MLME right
now will do for its combined probe/auth step.

f679f65d41 mac80211: generalise management work a bit
As a first step of generalising management work,
this renames a few things and puts more information
directly into the struct so that auth/assoc need
not access the BSS pointer as often -- in fact it
can be removed from auth completely. Also since the
previous patch made sure a new work item is used
for association, we can make the different data a
union.

63f170e0c8 mac80211: let cfg80211 manage auth state
mac80211 currently hangs on to the auth state by
keeping it on the work list. That can lead to
confusing behaviour like rejecting scans while
authenticated to any AP (but not yet associated.)
It also means that it needs to keep track of the
work struct while associated for when it gets
disassociated (or disassociates.)

Change this to free the work struct after the
authentication completed successfully and
allocate a new one for associating, thereby
letting cfg80211 manage the auth state. Another
change necessary for this is to tell cfg80211
about all unicast deauth frames sent to mac80211
since now it can no longer check the auth state,
but that check was racy anyway.

a80f7c0b08 mac80211: introduce flush operation
We've long lacked a good confirmation that frames
have really gone out, e.g. before going off-channel
for a scan. Add a flush() operation that drivers
can implement to provide that confirmation, and use
it in a few places:
 * before scanning sends the nullfunc frames
 * after scanning sends the nullfunc frames, if any
 * when going idle, to send any pending frames

d30506e035 rtl8187: remove priv->mode
It is checked in add_interface, but there it is easily replaced with
a check of priv->vif.  If that information should become necessary,
it is available in vif->type anyway.

It is also checked in led_turn_on and led_turn_off, where I made the
substitutions as described above.  Of course, these checks seem to
have been incorrect since the driver was using NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR
to indicate no interface rather than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED.
Anyway, I think these checks may be extraneous...?
