When b43 gets build into the kernel and it should use bcma we have to
ensure that bcma was also build into the kernel and not as a module.
In this patch this is also done for SSB, although you can not
build b43 without ssb support for now.
This fixes a build problem reported by Randy Dunlap in

The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered,
and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates
ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err()
parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware,
this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation.

Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could
happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can
handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and
refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This
patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will
handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers
bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example:
offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j];
formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat
number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes:
0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25.

Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.
This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.
Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.

Bastian Bittorf reported that some of the silent freezes on a Linksys WRT54G
were due to overflow of the RX DMA ring buffer, which was created with 64
slots. That finding reminded me that I was seeing similar crashed on a netbook,
which also has a relatively slow processor. After increasing the number of
slots to 128, runs on the netbook that previously failed now worked; however,
I found that 109 slots had been used in one test. For that reason, the number
of slots is being increased to 256.

There were no break statements in this switch statement so everything
used the default settings. Per Walter Harms's suggestion, I've replaced
the switch statement and done a little cleanup.

The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a

Recent versions of udev cause synchronous firmware loading from the
probe routine to fail because the request to user space would time
out. The original fix for b43 (commit 6b6fa58) moved the firmware
load from the probe routine to a work queue, but it still used synchronous
firmware loading. This method is OK when b43 is built as a module;
however, it fails when the driver is compiled into the kernel.
This version changes the code to load the initial firmware file
using request_firmware_nowait(). A completion event is used to
hold the work queue until that file is available. This driver
reads several firmware files - the remainder can be read synchronously.
On some test systems, the async read fails; however, a following synch
read works, thus the async failure falls through to the sync try.

The BCM4706 has two PCIe host controller on the bcma bus. For PCIe
client mode it is assumed that there is only one PCIe controller so the
PCIe driver, like b43 and brcmsmac are accessing the first PCIe
controller when they want to issue a operation on the host controller.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.
2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.
3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.
4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.
5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.
7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
Borkmann.
8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very
many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.
From Eric Dumazet.
10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are
a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
allocator c) less waste of space.
From Eric Dumazet.
11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.
12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
From Stephen Hemminger.
13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.
Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.

There's no Kconfig symbol BRCMSMAC_MODULE, so the check for it will
always fail. There's no need to append _MODULE to tristate symbols
anyhow, because the config tools will do the right thing automagically.
(While we're touching this Kconfig file replace a tab between "default"
and "y" with a space.)

b43 with open firmware crashes mac80211 because
it changes the number of queues at runtime which,
while it was never really supported, now crashes
mac80211 due to the new hardware queue logic.
Fix this by detecting open vs. proprietary fw
earlier and registering with mac80211 with the
right number of queues.
