d15dd3e5d7 ath: add common ath_rxbuf_alloc() and make ath9k use it
Turns out ath5k and ath9k can share the same helper to
allocates RX skbs. We allocate skbs aligned to the cache line
size. This requirement seems to have come from AR5210; when
this was not done it seems sometimes we'd get bogus data. I'm
also told it may have been a performance enhancement
consideration. In the end I can't be sure we can remove this
on new hardware so just keep this and start sharing it through
ath.ko.

Make ath9k start using this, ath5k is next.

3c5772a527 mac80211: Use 3-address format for mesh broadcast frames.
The 11s task group recently changed the frame mesh multicast/broadcast frame
format to use 3-address.  This was done to avoid interactions with widely
deployed lazy-WDS access points.

This patch changes the format of group addressed frames, both mesh-originated
and proxied, to use the data format defined in draft D2.08 and forward.  The
address fields used for group addressed frames is:

In 802.11 header
 ToDS:0  FromDS:1
 addr1: DA  (broadcast/multicast address)
 addr2: TA
 addr3: Mesh SA

In address extension header:
 addr4: SA  (only present if frame was proxied)

Note that this change breaks backward compatibility with earlier mesh stack
versions.

6e220662bf ath5k: Use SWI to trigger calibration
* Get rid of calibration timer, instead use a software interrupt
  to schedule the calibration tasklet.

 a) We don't need a timer for this, there is no need for accuracy
   even with round_jiffies i think this is a waste of resources.
   Also we don't need to run calibration if we are idle (no
   interrupts).

 b) When we add ANI support we 'll just extend the poll function
   and calibration tasklet and handle all periodic phy calibration
   on one place (much cleaner).

 c) Having calibration on a tasklet is better since during calibration
   we can't transmit or receive (antennas are detached to measure
   noise floor), previously calibration could run in parallel with
   tx/rx and interfere (packet loss).

 v2: kill tasklet on stop_hw, stop/wake queues
 v3: use time_is_before_eq_jiffies to compare timestamp with current
     time

17512dc3b7 rt2x00: Fix for race condition while update beacon
The patch "Implement set_tim callback for all drivers" can cause kernel
oops in rt73usb_write_beacon. The oops is caused by one of the following
race conditions:
* In case of two near calls to set_tim: rt2x00lib_beacondone_iter is
cleaning the beacon skb, whereas rt73usb_write_beacon is still using it.
* In case of two near updates of beacon: first as the result of set_tim
and second as the result of a call from an application (e.g. hostapd).
This patch fixes the race condition by rearranging the update logic and
guarding rt2x00_intf->beacon->skb with a mutex.

267e898755 rt2x00: Use IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES flag
Check the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_MORE_FRAMES flag to help determining
if the DMA queue should be kicked. At the moment this is combined
with the ieee80211_has_morefrags() but we might remove that later.

bdfa500b8b rt2x00: Remove usage of deprecated radio_enabled & IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_RADIO_ENABLED
In the config() callback function the fields radio_enabled and
the change flag IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_RADIO_ENABLED have been
deprecated. This removes the usage of those fields by improving
antenna change detection in the antenna configuration function.

4d30d309a3 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k: Change constant name
Elsewhere, the tqi_type field is compared to constants having a name
beginning with AR5K_TX_QUEUE, rather than AR5K_TX_QUEUE_ID.  I have thus
converted AR5K_TX_QUEUE_ID_CAB to AR5K_TX_QUEUE_CAB.  This does, however,
change the value, so perhaps something else was wanted.

4b181144e6 cfg80211: fix locking for SIWFREQ
"cfg80211: validate channel settings across interfaces"
contained a locking bug -- in the managed-mode SIWFREQ
call it would end up running into a lock recursion.

This fixes it by not checking that particular interface
for a channel that it needs to stay on, which is as it
should be as that's the interface we're setting the
channel for.

e312c24cf8 iwlwifi: automatically adjust sleep level
Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211)
we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has
a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to
stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive
response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the
sleep command.

Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default
to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter
to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency
requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due
to requiring more testing.

The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the
deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking
latency requirements.

This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device)
when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is
not of big concern.

Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for
thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using
the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs
to allow easier testing of such parameters.
