Larry Finger 30899cc6ab rtlwifi: Preallocate USB read buffers and eliminate kalloc in read routine
The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to
acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When
_usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is
a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is
reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775.
The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could
be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from
within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync()
by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and
allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

Chun-Yeow Yeoh 292c41acdd mac80211: fix the sparse warnings on endian handling in RANN propagation
The HWMP sequence number of received RANN element is compared to decide whether to be
propagated. The sequence number is required to covert from 32bit little endian data into
CPUs endianness for comparison. The same applies to the RANN metric.

Ronald Wahl 70b12f2612 mac80211: when receiving DTIM disable power-save mode only if it was enabled
When receiving DTIM we currently disable power save mode in the
hardware unconditionally, i.e. also when the hardware was not sleeping.
This causes trouble with at least one wireless chipset (Ralink RT3572).
When the hardware is not sleeping and we send a wakeup command (e.g.
this happens after a scan) then a significant decrease of the link
quality or a disconnect may occur.
Disabling power save mode only when it was enabled prevents this issue.

Felix Fietkau 12d3952fc4 mac80211: optimize aggregation session timeout handling
Calling mod_timer from the rx/tx hotpath is somewhat expensive, and the
timeout doesn't need to be so precise.

Switch to a different strategy: Schedule the timer initially, store jiffies
of all last rx/tx activity which would previously modify the timer, and
let the timer re-arm itself after checking the last rx/tx timestamp.
Make the session timers deferrable to avoid causing extra wakeups on systems
running on battery.
This visibly reduces CPU load under high network load on small embedded
systems.

Larry Finger 5612a508d1 p54usb: Load firmware asynchronously
Drivers that load firmware from their probe routine have problems with
the latest versions of udev as they get timeouts while waiting for user
space to start. The problem is fixed by using request_firmware_nowait()
and delaying the start of mac80211 until the firmware is loaded.

To prevent the possibility of the driver being unloaded while the
firmware loading callback is still active, a completion queue entry
is used.

Also, to simplify the firmware loading procedure, this patch removes
the old, unofficial and confusing fallback firmware names. However,
they are still supported! So any user - who is still using them -
is hereby advised to link/rename their old firmware filenames:
	isl3890usb to isl3886usb
	isl3887usb_bare to isl3887usb

Rajkumar Manoharan 6f0756a38f mac80211: do not send pspoll when powersave is disabled
There might be latency at AP side to update TIM IE which could cause the
station to send pspoll frame even after the wakeup. If the powersave is
disabled, the nullfunc notification alone is sufficient to receive
frames from the AP. And if the pspoll frame was already sent, no need to
resend the frame till it was acked by AP.

Rajkumar Manoharan 01e189182d ath9k: recover ar9380 chips from rare stuck state
In the experiment with Azimuth ADEPT-n testbed where the APs transmit
power was reduced to 25% and the signal strength was futher attenuated
by 20dB and induced a path loss of ~7dB, the station was reporting
beacon losses and the following issue were observed.

* rx clear is stuck at low for more than 300ms
* dcu chain and complete state is stuck at one of the hang signature

This patch triggers the hang detection logic that recovers the chip
from any of the above conditions. As the issue was originally reported
in ChromeOs with AR9382 chips, this detection logic is enabled only for
AR9380/2 chips.

Rajkumar Manoharan 54da20d83f ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters
This patch improves ANI operations by switching among the immunity
levels based on PHY errors and beacon rssi which will adjust receiver
desensitizing parameters. The changes are

* Configure the Weak Signal Detection based on current immunity value.
* At highest OFDM immunity level poor performance was observed with
  strong interference. By tuning the FIR step and spur immunity levels
  and not changing any weak signal detection thresholds at any level
  helped to improve the performance.
* ANI took long time to recover back to lower immunity levels on heavy
  data load. As the listen time got reset to zero before reaching to
  the 5x of aniperiod, the immunity level is not lowering back even
  without any interference. This patch fix that.

Linus Torvalds f68e556e23 Make the "word-at-a-time" helper functions more commonly usable
I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these
same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses
them.  This is preparation for that.

This moves them into an architecture-specific header file.  It's
architecture-specific for two reasons:

 - some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific
   implementations.  Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in
   the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's
   likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation
   is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast
   bit count instruction, for example.

 - I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing
   around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in
   particular the actual unaligned accesses).  So we're likely to have
   more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using
   this.

   (and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using
   this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the
   right thing to do, of course)

    Fix from Eric Dumazet.

11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it
    invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't.  Let the natural sequence
    generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE
    settings, guide the tcp_push() calls.

    Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch
    effectively into GSO/TSO clusters.

    From Eric Dumazet.

12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a
    socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we
    cannot touch it after queueing it like that.

    Fixes from Eric Dumazet.

13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
    immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
    to transmit the PPP frame.

    But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
    TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.

    Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
    particular things like the equalizers.  Well behaved devices should
    only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
    when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.

    David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
    it's downstream can't take data any more.

14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver
    changes, re-add.  From Marc Kleine-Budde.

Eric Dumazet 4a7e7c2ad5 netlink: fix races after skb queueing
As soon as an skb is queued into socket receive_queue, another thread
can consume it, so we are not allowed to reference skb anymore, or risk
use after free.

Linus Torvalds 314489bd4c ARM: SoC fixes for 3.4-rc2
A bunch of fixes for regressions (and a few other problems) in 3.4-rc1:
 
 * Fix for regression of mach/io.h cleanup on platforms with PCI or PCMCIA
   (adding back the include file on those for now)
 * AT91 fixes for usb and spi
 * smsc911x ethernet fixes for i.MX
 * smsc911x fixes for OMAP
 * gpio fixes for Tegra
 * A handful of build error and warning fixes for various platforms
 * cpufreq kconfig dependencies, build and lowlevel debug fixes for
   Samsung platforms
 
 In other words, more or less the regular collection of -rc1/2 type
 material. A few of them, in particular the smsc911x for OMAP series, aren't
 technically regressions for 3.4, but they're valid fixes and we're still
 relatively early in the rc cycle so it seems appropriate to include them.

Mike Frysinger 95fc2d8f96 blackfin: fix L1 data A overflow link issue
This patch fix below compile error:
"bfin-uclinux-ld: L1 data A overflow!"

It is due to the recent lib/gen_crc32table.c change:
46c5801eaf
crc32: bolt on crc32c

it added 8KiB more data to __cacheline_aligned which cause blackfin L1 data
cache overflow.
