mac80211: redefine usage of the mac80211 workqueue
The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers
to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211
takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never
really had requirements on drivers for how they should use
the workqueue in consideration for suspend.
We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should
be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to
the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers
to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue:
These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its
suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211
flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times,
but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more
work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when
someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the
suspend cycle.
Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work
in the mac80211 stop() callback.

Choose saner defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh values on init
Currently, the xfrm[4|6] code has hard-coded initial gc_thresh values

This patch dynamically selects an appropriate gc threshold based on
the corresponding main routing table size, using the assumption that
we should in the worst case be able to handle as many connections as
the routing table can.
For ipv4, the maximum route cache size is 16 * the number of hash
buckets in the route cache. Given that xfrm4 starts garbage
collection at the gc_thresh and prevents new allocations at 2 *
gc_thresh, we set gc_thresh to half the maximum route cache size.
For ipv6, its a bit trickier. there is no maximum route cache size,
but the ipv6 dst_ops gc_thresh is statically set to 1024. It seems
sane to select a simmilar gc_thresh for the xfrm6 code that is half

cfg80211: combine iwfreq implementations
Until now we implemented iwfreq for managed mode, we
needed to keep the implementations separate, but now
that we have all versions implemented we can combine
them and export just one handler.

mac80211: verify info->control.vif is not NULL
When enqueuing packets on the internal packet queue, we
need to ensure that we have a valid vif pointer since
that is required since the net namespace work. Add some
assertions to verify this, but also don't crash is for
some reason we don't end up with a vif pointer -- warn
and drop the packet in all these cases.
Since this code touches a number of hotpaths, it is
intended to be temporary, or maybe configurable in the
future, at least the bit that is in the path that gets
hit for every packet, ieee80211_tx_pending().

nl80211: add missing parameter clearing
Jouni and Maxim reported an oops when using wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211,
which seems to be due to random data being contained in the crypto
settings for the assoc() command. This seems to be due to the missing
memset here, so add it -- it's certainly missing but I'm not 100%
certain that it will fix the problem.

There is a small window where the mac80211 changes the IEEE80211_CONF_PS
flag, and then informs the driver about the change. We have a race
condition if we are checking the flag in the same time. Avoid it by
introducing a local variable, and using that instead of checking the
IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag directly.
This fix the problem reported by Luis:

mac80211: fix receiving deauth
Marcel reported a warning, which quite obviously comes
from an oversight in the code handling deauth frames,
and which resulted in multiple follow-up warnings due
to this missing handling. This patch adds the missing
deauth handling (telling cfg80211 about it) and also
removes the follow-up warnings since they could happen
due to races even if nothing is wrong. I've explained
the races in the comments.

cfg80211: fix circular lock dependency (1)
Luis reported this lockdep complaint, that he had also

(slightly abridged)
=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.31-rc4-wl #6
-------------------------------------------------------
wpa_supplicant/3799 is trying to acquire lock:
(cfg80211_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa009246a>] cfg80211_get_dev_from_ifindex+0x1a/0x90 [cfg80211]
but task is already holding lock:
(rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81400ff2>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x20
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
When looking at the correct code, the problem is quite
obvious. I'm not entirely sure which code paths lead
here, so until I can analyse it better let's just use
RCU to avoid the problem.

mac80211: fix suspend
Jan reported that his b43-based laptop hangs during suspend.
The problem turned out to be mac80211 asking the driver to
stop the hardware before removing interfaces, and interface
removal caused b43 to touch the hardware (while down, which
causes the hang).
This patch fixes mac80211 to do reorder these operations to
have them in the correct order -- first remove interfaces
and then stop the hardware. Some more code is necessary to
be able to do so in a race-free manner, in particular it is
necessary to not process frames received during quiescing.
