Stefano Brivio 00e0b8cb74 b43: reinit on too many PHY TX errors

Sometimes it can be useful to see the FCS, especially when
bad-FCS frames are shown. Pass the FCS to mac80211 and let

Larry Finger 1a8d122782 b43: Fix rfkill radio LED
This fixes Bug #9414

Since addition of the rfkill callback, the LED associated with the off
switch on the radio has not worked for several reasons:

(1) Essential data in the rfkill structure were missing.
(2) The rfkill structure was initialized after the LED initialization.
(3) There was a minor memory leak if the radio LED structure was inited.

Once the above problems were fixed, additional difficulties were noted:

(4) The radio LED was in the wrong state at startup.
(5) The radio switch had to be manipulated twice for each state change.
(6) A circular mutex locking situation existed.
(7) If rfkill-input is built as a module, it is not automatically loaded.

This patch fixes all of the above.

Stefano Brivio 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.

Johannes Berg 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.

Driver modifications by Johannes Berg (b43 & iwlwifi), Michael Wu
(rtl8187, adm8211, and p54), Larry Finger (b43legacy), and
Ivo van Doorn (rt2x00).
