699669f331 iwl-3945: add #ifdef CONFIG_IWL3945_LEDS to avoid compile warning.
When building the wireless-next-2.6 tree with CONFIG_IWL3945 (for building
iwl-3945 driver) and where CONFIG_IWL3945_LEDS is not set,
we get this warning:
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-3945.c: In function
'iwl3945_pass_packet_to_mac80211':
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-3945.c:633: warning: unused variable 'hdr'

This patch adds #ifdef to iwl3945_pass_packet_to_mac80211() to avoid this
warning. (The variable 'hdr' is used only if CONFIG_IWL3945_LEDS is set)

064af1117b rfkill: mutex fixes
There are two mutexes in rfkill:

rfkill->mutex, which protects some of the fields of a rfkill struct, and is
also used for callback serialization.

rfkill_mutex, which protects the global state, the list of registered
rfkill structs and rfkill->claim.

Make sure to use the correct mutex, and to not miss locking rfkill->mutex
even when we already took rfkill_mutex.

37f55e9d78 rfkill: fix led-trigger unregister order in error unwind
rfkill needs to unregister the led trigger AFTER a call to
rfkill_remove_switch(), otherwise it will not update the LED state,
possibly leaving it ON when it should be OFF.

To make led-trigger unregistering safer, guard against unregistering a
trigger twice, and also against issuing trigger events to a led trigger
that was unregistered.  This makes the error unwind paths more resilient.

Refer to "rfkill: Register LED triggers before registering switch".

2fd9b2212e rfkill: document rfkill_force_state as required (v2)
While the rfkill class does work with just get_state(), it doesn't work
well on devices that are subject to external events that cause rfkill state
changes.

Document that rfkill_force_state() is required in those cases.

274c7c3638 Ath5k: flush work
Make sure that the irq is not in progress after stop. This means
two things:
- ensure the intr setting register is set by flushing posted values
- call synchronize_irq() after that

Also flush stop tx write, inform callers of the tx stop about still
pending transfers (unsuccessful stop) and finally don't wait another
3ms in ath5k_rx_stop, since ath5k_hw_stop_rx_dma ensures transfer to
be finished.

Make sure all writes will be ordered in respect to locks by mmiowb().

3a0f2c8718 Ath5k: fix memory corruption
When signal is noisy, hardware can use all RX buffers and since the last
entry in the list is self-linked, it overwrites the entry until we link
new buffers.

Ensure that we don't free this last one until we are 100% sure that it
is not used by the hardware anymore to not cause memory curruption as
can be seen below.

This is done by checking next buffer in the list. Even after that we
know that the hardware refetched the new link and proceeded further
(the next buffer is ready) we can finally free the overwritten buffer.

We discard it since the status in its descriptor is overwritten (OR-ed
by new status) too.

9b79022ca9 Fix 'get_user_pages_fast()' with non-page-aligned start address
Alexey Dobriyan reported trouble with LTP with the new fast-gup code,
and Johannes Weiner debugged it to non-page-aligned addresses, where the
new get_user_pages_fast() code would do all the wrong things, including
just traversing past the end of the requested area due to 'addr' never
matching 'end' exactly.

This is not a pretty fix, and we may actually want to move the alignment
into generic code, leaving just the core code per-arch, but Alexey
verified that the vmsplice01 LTP test doesn't crash with this.

8c79873da0 lguest: turn Waker into a thread, not a process
lguest uses a Waker process to break it out of the kernel (ie.
actually running the guest) when file descriptor needs attention.

Changing this from a process to a thread somewhat simplifies things:
it can directly access the fd_set of things to watch.  More
importantly, it means that the Waker can see Guest memory correctly,
so /dev/vring file descriptors will work as anticipated (the
alternative is to actually mmap MAP_SHARED, but you can't do that with
/dev/zero).

aa1249840b lguest: Adaptive timeout
Since the correct timeout value varies, use a heuristic which adjusts
the timeout depending on how many packets we've seen.  This gives
slightly worse results, but doesn't need tweaking when GSO is
introduced.

a161883a29 lguest: Tell Guest net not to notify us on every packet xmit
virtio_ring has the ability to suppress notifications.  This prevents
a guest exit for every packet, but we need to set a timer on packet
receipt to re-check if there were any remaining packets.

Here are the times for 1G TCP Guest->Host with different timeout
settings (it matters because the TCP window doesn't grow big enough to
fill the entire buffer):

Timeout value	Seconds		Xmit/Recv/Timeout
None (before)	25.3784		xmit 7750233 recv 1
2500 usec	62.5119		xmit 207020 recv 2 timeout 207020
1000 usec	34.5379		xmit 207003 recv 2 timeout 207003
750 usec	29.2305		xmit 207002 recv 1 timeout 207002
500 usec	19.1887		xmit 561141 recv 1 timeout 559657
250 usec	20.0465		xmit 214128 recv 2 timeout 214110
100 usec	19.2583		xmit 561621 recv 1 timeout 560153

(Note that these values are sensitive to the GSO patches which come
 later, and probably other traffic-related variables, so take with a
 large grain of salt).
