a19d12d742 b43: fix shared IRQ race condition
Fix an IRQ race condition in b43. If we call b43_stop_wireless_core(), it
will set the status of the device to INITIALIZED and the IRQ handler won't
care any longer about IRQs, thus the kernel will disable the IRQ if it's
shared (unless we boot it with the 'irqpoll' option). So we must disable
IRQs before changing the device status.

35c7e6602b b43: Rewrite and fix rfkill init
The rfkill subsystem doesn't like code like that
rfkill_allocate();
rfkill_register();
rfkill_unregister();
rfkill_register(); /* <- This will crash */

This sequence happens with
modprobe b43
ifconfig wlanX up
ifconfig wlanX down
ifconfig wlanX up

Fix this by always re-allocating the rfkill stuff before register.

4150c57212 [PATCH] mac80211: revamp interface and filter configuration
Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor
interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and
they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc.

This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list()
callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes
filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*).
For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much
as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags.
Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g.
FIF_ALLMULTI.

Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that
have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast
frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or
when the mc_count value is positive.

At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about
monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to
implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new
change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop()
ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any
add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after
any remove_interface().

The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid
to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING
is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed
and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced.
This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that
supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID
to all-ones.

(rtl8187, adm8211, and p54), Larry Finger (b43legacy), and

fda9abcf1a [B43]: Support for turning the radio off from software.
This adds support for turning the radio off in software.
That's useful in environments, where you don't want the RF
to radiate any signals, but don't want to bring the interface down.
