01d77d8d47 libertas: separate mesh connectivity from that of the main interface
The transmit and receive traffic as soon as the mesh interface is
brought up.

Test case 1:  Bring up only the mesh interface and ping.  No need for
any iwconfig commands on the main interface.

$ ifconfig msh0 192.168.5.3
$ iwconfig msh0 channel X
$ ping 192.168.5.2
If ping succeeds, PASS

Test case 2:  Associate with the main interface, and turn off AP.  Mesh
interface should not lose connectivity.

$ iwconfig eth0 mode managed essid "my_ssid"
$ ifconfig msh0 192.168.5.3
$ ping 192.168.5.2
<turn off access point>
If ping continues uninterrupted, PASS

This feature requires firmware version 5.110.19.p0 or newer, available
here: http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/libertas/

be13f1897f libertas: reset devices upon disconnect rather than module unloading
1) Do not reset libertas devices upon module unload.  We're unloading
the module, we're not killing off devices.
2) Instead, reset libertas devices inside if_usb_disconnect, as we're
killing off interfaces and so on.
3) Resetting via disconnect callback means we no longer need to keep
track of probed libertas devices; kill off that list (and its wonderful
lack of locking..), as well.

Drop a useless comment as well.

c272ef4403 ssb: Convert to use of the new SPROM structure
In disagreement with the SPROM specs, revision 3 devices appear to have
moved the MAC address.

Change ssb to handle the revision 4 SPROM, which is a different size.
This change in size is handled by adding a new variable to the ssb_sprom
struct and using it whenever possible. For those routines that do not
have access to this structure, a 'u16 size' argument is added.

The new PCI_ID for the BCM4328 is also added.

Testing of the Revision 4 SPROM, which is used on the BCM4328, was done
by Michael Gerdau <mgerdau@tiscali.de>.

ac82fab44f ssb: Add new SPROM structure while keeping the old
The SPROM's for various devices utilizing the Sonics Silicon Backplane come
with various revisions. The Revision 2 SPROM inherited the data layout of 1, and
Revision 3 inherited the layout of 2. The first instance of Revision 4 has
now been found in a BCM4328 wireless LAN card. This device does not inherit any
layout from previous versions. Although it was possible to create a data
structure that kept all the old layouts, we decided to start fresh, keep only
those SPROM variables that are used by the drivers that utilize ssb, and to
do the conversion in such a manner that neither compilation or execution will
be affected if a bisection lands in the middle of these changes, while keeping
the patches as small as possible.

In this patch, the sprom structures are changed while maintaining the old ones.

906674abab pasemi_mac: Improve RX interrupt mitigation
pasemi_mac: Improve RX interrupt mitigation

Currently the receive side interrupts will go off on the reception of
a packet, NAPI will poll the ring and keep polling as long as there's
a decent amount of packets to receive.

This is less than optimal, especially for LRO where it's better if we
have a more substantial amount of packets to process at once, to get
the real LRO benefits.

So, set the count threshold to a higher value and use the timeout feature
that will give us an interrupt even if not enough packets have come in
to set off the count threshold.

FIXME: It'd be real nice to have ethtool support for users to tune this
at runtime.

61cec3bddc pasemi_mac: Fix TX cleaning
pasemi_mac: Fix TX cleaning

This is a bit awkward. We don't have a timer-delayed interrupt on TX
complete, but we have a count threshold. So set that reasonably high
(32 packets), and schedule the NAPI poll when it goes off. Also bump a
regular timer that will take care of rotting packets for the last 1..31
ones in case we don't trigger a TX interrupt (and there's no RX activity
that would otherwise trigger the poll).

The longer-term fix is to separate TX from RX NAPI and do two separate
poll loops.
