Sujith Manoharan bd54879958 ath9k_htc: Fix max subframe handling
Commit "ath9k_htc: Fix AMPDU subframe handling" registered the maximum
subframe limit of the driver with mac80211, which was used in ADDBA
negotiation. While technically correct, this causes inter-operability issues
with a few APs. Revert to the older behavior to fix this.

Sujith Manoharan 0cd075d74b ath9k_htc: Fix BSSID calculation
The BSSID/AID has to be set for the first associated station interface.
Subsequent interfaces may move out of assoc/disassoc status, in which
case, the BSSID has to be re-calculated from the available interfaces.
Also, ANI should be enabled or disabled based on the current opmode.

This adds a new generic gpio rfkill driver to support rfkill switches
which are controlled by gpios. The driver also supports passing in
data about the clock for the radio, so that when rfkill is blocking,
it can disable the clock.

This driver assumes platform data is passed from the board files to
configure it for specific devices.

Felix Fietkau c6820f1e6c ath9k: fix ad-hoc mode beacon selection
In ad-hoc mode, beacon timers are configured differently compared to AP
mode, and (depending on the scenario) can vary enough to make the beacon
tasklet not detect slot 0 based on the TSF.
Since staggered beacons are not (and cannot be) used in ad-hoc mode, it
makes more sense to just hardcode slot 0 here, avoiding unnecessary
TSF reads and calculations.

Jouni Malinen ed9d01026f cfg80211: Use consistent BSS matching between scan and sme
cfg80211 scan code adds separate BSS entries if the same BSS shows up
on multiple channels. However, sme implementation does not use the
frequency when fetching the BSS entry. Fix this by adding channel
information to cfg80211_roamed() and include it in cfg80211_get_bss()
calls.

Please note that drivers using cfg80211_roamed() need to be modified to
fully implement this fix. This commit includes only minimal changes to
avoid compilation issues; it maintains the old (broken) behavior for
most drivers. ath6kl was the only one that I could test, so I updated
it to provide the operating frequency in the roamed event.

This adds proper RCU annotations to the mesh path

that I found while checking the sparse warnings I
got as a result of the annotations.

Some things like the changes in mesh_path_add() or
mesh_pathtbl_init() only serve to shut up sparse,
but other changes like the changes surrounding the
for_each_mesh_entry() macro fix real RCU bugs in
the code.

Johannes Berg 1928ecab62 mac80211: fix and simplify mesh locking
The locking in mesh_{mpath,mpp}_table_grow not only
has an rcu_read_unlock() missing, it's also racy
(though really only technically since it's invoked
from a single function only) since it obtains the
new size of the table without any locking, so two
invocations of the function could attempt the same
resize.

Additionally, it uses synchronize_rcu() which is
rather expensive and can be avoided trivially here.

Modify the functions to only use the table lock
and use call_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu().

mac80211 uses call_rcu() with functions that are
defined in the module, so it must use rcu_barrier()
at module exit time.

Luckily, this seems to not be a problem in practice
as module unload and unregistration takes a long
time and probably does multiple synchronize_rcu().

actually an RCU-managed pointer (it only has
a single assignment done before the key even
goes live). As that is otherwise harmless, I
decided to make it part of this patch.

Johannes Berg ec034b208d mac80211: fix TX a-MPDU locking
During my quest to make mac80211 not have any RCU
warnings from sparse, I came across the a-MPDU code
again and it wasn't quite clear why it isn't racy.
So instead of assigning the tid_tx array with just
the spinlock held in ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session
use a separate temporary array protected only by
the spinlock and protect all assignments to the
"live" array by both the spinlock and the mutex so
that other code is easily verified to be correct.

Due to pointer assignment atomicity I don't think
this is a real issue, but I'm not sure, especially
on Alpha the current code might be problematic.

Johannes Berg 7527a782e1 cfg80211: advertise possible interface combinations
Add the ability to advertise interface combinations in nl80211.
This allows the driver to indicate what the combinations are
that it supports. "Combinations" of just a single interface are
implicit, as previously. Note that cfg80211 will enforce that
the restrictions are met, but not for all drivers yet (once all
drivers are updated, we can remove the flag and enforce for all).

When no combinations are actually supported, an empty list will
be exported so that userspace can know if the kernel exported
this info or not (although it isn't clear to me what tools using
the info should do if the kernel didn't export it).

Since some interface types are purely virtual/software and don't
fit the restrictions, those are exposed in a new list of pure SW
types, not subject to restrictions. This mainly exists to handle
AP-VLAN and monitor interfaces in mac80211.

presumably due to buf_size being signed causing GCC to fail to
see that buf_size can't become negative.
