mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status
When sending authentication/association frames they
might take a bit of time to go out because we may
have to synchronise with the AP, in particular in
the case where it's really a P2P GO. In this case
the 200ms fixed timeout could potentially be too
short if the beacon interval is relatively large.
For drivers that report TX status we can do better.
Instead of starting the timeout directly, start it
only when the frame status arrives. Since then the
frame was out on the air, we can wait shorter (the
typical response time is supposed to be 30ms, wait
100ms.) Also, if the frame failed to be transmitted
try again right away instead of waiting.

mac80211: inform the driver about update of dtim_period
Currently, when the driver requires the DTIM period,
mac80211 will wait to hear a beacon before association.
This behavior is suboptimal since some drivers may be
able to deal with knowing the DTIM period after the
association, if they get it at all.
To address this, notify the drivers with bss_info_changed
with the new BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD flag when the DTIM
becomes known. This might be when changing to associated,
or later when the entire association was done with only
probe response information.
Rename the hardware flag for the current behaviour to
IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC to more accurately
reflect its behaviour. IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_PERIOD is

mac80211: fix aggregation state with current drivers
For drivers that don't actually flush their queues when
aggregation stop with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_FLUSH
or IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_FLUSH_CONT reasons is done,
like iwlwifi or iwlegacy, mac80211 can then transmit on
a TID that the driver still considers busy. This happens
in the following way:
- IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_FLUSH requested
- driver marks TID as emptying
- mac80211 removes tid_tx data, this can copy packets
to the TX pending queues and also let new packets
through to the driver
- driver gets unexpected TX as it wasn't completely
converted to the new API
Fortunately, solving this problem is easy as the station
is being destroyed, so such transmit packets can only
happen due to races. Instead of trying to close the race
just let the race not reach the drivers by making two
changes:
1) remove the explicit aggregation session teardown in
the managed mode code, the same thing will be done
when the station is removed, in __sta_info_destroy.
2) When aggregation stop with AGG_STOP_DESTROY_STA is
requested, leave the tid_tx data around as stopped.
It will be cleared and freed in cleanup_single_sta
later, but until then any racy packets will be put
onto the tid_tx pending queue instead of transmitted
which is fine since the station is being removed.

frames are sent in an AMPDU and then finally sent as single
frame. So a lot of failures weren't reported and the rate
scaling got stuck in high rates leading to very poor
connectivity.
Fix that by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU when the frame
isn't part of an AMPDU.

iwlwifi: enable communication with WoWLAN firmware
On resuming, the opmode may have to be able to talk
to the WoWLAN/D3 firmware in order to query it about
its status and wakeup reasons. To do that, the opmode
has to call the new d3_resume() transport API which
will set up the device for command communcation.

iwlwifi: simplify scheduler memory clearing
Writing 130 dwords into the device one by one is
rather inefficient, every one needs to lock, grab
NIC access (a few register reads/writes) and then
write the address and data registers.
Use the new memory clearing function to make this
easier and faster.

Enabling the RF-kill interrupt is sufficient for getting
RF-kill notifications, and no other interrupt is needed
as the device isn't functional when suspended and will be

The sanity checks allow 1 and 2 byte reads/writes of the extended

bcma: don't map/unmap a subset of the PCI config space
For PCI config space access offsets < 256 for device '0',
bcma_extpci_write_config performs an 'ioremap_nocache' on a 4 byte
section of the PCI config space (an area that has already
previously been mapped), and then subsequently unmaps that 4 byte
section. This can't be a good thing for future read access from
that now unmapped location. Modify the config space writes to use
the existing access functions (similar to how it is done for the reads).

Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com> says:
"This is the first NFC patchset targeted at the 3.9 merge window.
It brings the following goodies:
- LLCP socket timestamping (To be used e.g with the recently released nfctool
application for a more efficient skb timestamping when sniffing).
- A pretty big pn533 rework from Waldemar, preparing the driver to support
more flavours of pn533 based devices.
- HCI changes from Eric in preparation for the microread driver support.
- Some LLCP memory leak fixes, cleanups and slight improvements.
- pn544 and nfcwilink move to the devm_kzalloc API.
- An initial Secure Element (SE) API.
- An nfc.h license change from the original author, allowing non GPL
application code to safely include it."

ath9k: remove sc->rx.rxbuflock to fix a deadlock
The commit "ath9k: fix rx flush handling" added a deadlock that happens
because ath_rx_tasklet is called in a section that has already taken the
rx buffer lock.
It seems that the only purpose of the rxbuflock was a band-aid fix to the
reset vs rx tasklet race, which has been properly fixed in the commit
"ath9k: add a better fix for the rx tasklet vs rx flush race".
Now that the fix is in, we can safely remove the lock to avoid such issues.
