Retrying commands seldomly works, most often the firmware is in a
weird state anyway and needs the device to reset. So it's better
to report the broken state back to user-space.
Also rename command_timer_fn() into lbs_cmd_timeout_handler(),
which better reflect it's usage.

With the v10 firmware running on 8688 HW, clearing WPA keys after setting the
WEP key prevents us from being able to associate with WEP APs.
Swapping the calling order for assoc_helper_wpa_keys() and
assoc_helper_wep_keys fixes that issue.

Commit f001fde5ea changed
net_device.dev_addr from a 32-byte array to a pointer.
I found 4 ethernet drivers which rely on sizeof(dev_addr), which are now

Move the pointer to the spinlock out of struct kfifo. Most users in
tree do not actually use a spinlock, so the few exceptions now have to
call kfifo_{get,put}_locked, which takes an extra argument to a
spinlock.

This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation.
The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to
many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it.
FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles
the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory
resources.
I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use:
- The API is to simple, important functions are missing
- A fifo can be only allocated dynamically
- There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not
- There is no support for data records inside a fifo
So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up
the API to much. The new API has the following benefits:
- Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver.
- Provide an API for the most use case.
- Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions.
- Linux style habit.
- DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros
- Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo.
- The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an
indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator.
- Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo,
which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary.
- Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if
one is required.
- Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported:
- Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size
field of 1 bytes.
- Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size
field of 2 bytes.
- Fixed size records, which no record size field.
- Preserve memory resource.
- Performance!
- Easy to use!
This patch:
Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object,
reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data
structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init
prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This
patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

The libertas driver copies the SSID buffer back to the wireless core and
appends a trailing NULL character for termination. This is
a) unnecessary because the buffer is allocated with kzalloc and is hence
already NULLed when this function is called, and
b) for priv->curbssparams.ssid_len == 32, it writes back one byte too
much which causes memory corruptions.
Fix this by removing the extra write.

Most of the irq_req_t typedef'd struct can be re-worked quite
easily:
(1) IRQInfo2 was unused in any case, so drop it.
(2) IRQInfo1 was used write-only, so drop it.
(3) Instance (private data to be passed to the IRQ handler):
Most PCMCIA drivers using pcmcia_request_irq() to actually
register an IRQ handler set the "dev_id" to the same pointer
as the "priv" pointer in struct pcmcia_device. Modify the two
exceptions (ipwireless, ibmtr_cs) to also work this waym and
set the IRQ handler's "dev_id" to p_dev->priv unconditionally.
(4) Handler is to be of type irq_handler_t.
(5) Handler != NULL already tells whether an IRQ handler is present.
Therefore, we do not need the IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT flag in
irq_req_t.Attributes.
