Daniel Drake 5628221caf [PATCH] mac80211: ERP IE handling improvements
The "protection needed" flag is currently parsed out of the ERP IE in
beacons. This patch allows the ERP IE to be available at assocation time
and causes the appropriate actions to be performed earlier.

It is slightly complicated by the fact that most APs don't include the
ERP IE in association responses. To work around this, we store ERP
values in the ieee80211_sta_bss structure.

Also added some WLAN_ERP defines for use by upcoming patches.

Larry Finger 1fd5e589d8 [PATCH] mac80211: Implementation of SIOCSIWRATE
The WEXT ioctl SIOCSIWRATE is not implemented in mac80211. This patch
adds the missing routine. It supports the 'auto' keyword, fixed rates,
and the combination of 'auto' and a fixed rate to select an upper bound.

Based on the patch from Mohamed Abbas <mabbas@linux.intel.com>.

Johannes Berg 4480f15ca6 [PATCH] mac80211: clarify some mac80211 things
The semantics of not having an add_interface callback are not well
defined, this callback is required because otherwise you cannot obtain
the requested MAC address of the device. Change the documentation to
reflect this, add a note about having no MAC address at all, add a
warning that mac_addr in struct ieee80211_if_init_conf can be NULL and
finally verify that a few callbacks are assigned by way of BUG_ON()

Johannes Berg 3ef8bed469 [PATCH] mac80211: kill rate control ioctls
These aren't used anywhere (hostapd, wpa_supplicant) and until we
have a proper interface to the rate control algorithms they don't
make much sense either since e.g. rc80211_lowest won't honour them.

Larry Finger eef6caf8a9 [MAC80211]: Set low initial rate in rc80211_simple
The initial rate for STA's using rc80211_simple is set to the last
rate in the rate table. For situations for which the signal is weak,
the rate may be too high for authentication and association. Although
the rc80211_simple module will adjust the speed, the response may not
be fast enough for a successful connection. This modification sets the
initial rate to the lowest supported value.

Mattias Nissler 14042cbefc [PATCH] mac80211: Don't stop tx queue on master device while scanning.
mac80211 stops the tx queues during scans. This is wrong with respect
to the master deivce tx queue, since stopping it prevents any probes
from being sent during the scan. Instead, they accumulate in the queue
and are only sent after the scan is finished, which is obviously
wrong.

Zhu Yi f11b0f0eb2 [PATCH] mac80211: fail back to use associate from reassociate
Some APs have strict checking between associate and reassociate. In
a case when an AP is restarted during a connection, it denies the
mac80211 reassoc request since this is a new association for the AP.
To fix this problem, we need to check the status code against
WLAN_STATUS_REASSOC_NO_ASSOC and clear ifsta->prev_bssid_set in
handling the association failure response.
