brcm80211: smac: fix endless retry of A-MPDU transmissions
The A-MPDU code checked against a retry limit, but it was using
the wrong variable to do so. This patch fixes this to assure
proper retry mechanism.
This problem had a side-effect causing the mac80211 flush callback
to remain waiting forever as well. That side effect has been fixed
by commit by Stanislaw Gruszka:
brcm80211: smac: remove redundant assignments from txpwrctrl_pwr_setup_nphy
The function wlc_phy_txpwrctrl_pwr_setup_nphy() does assign a local
variable target_pwr_qtrdbm in several code paths, but in the end all
code paths are coming to an assignment of that variable which does
override all previous. So those early and redundant assignments have
been removed.

Although this could sit as a separate patch in compat-wireless it seems
best to just merge upstream.

rt2x00: Update comment on freq_offset field in struct rt2x00_dev.
The comment states that the field is only used for rt61pci and rt73usb.
However, it is now used by rt2800pci and rt2800usb as well, so the
comment is not correct anymore.
Update the comment to not state any low-level drivers anymore.

rt2x00: Introduce concept of driver data in struct rt2x00_dev.
We are getting more and more fields in struct rt2x00_dev that are
specific to one or two of the low-level drivers. Instead of putting
these fields inside the main structure and thus clobbering all low-level
drivers with these fields, introduce the concept of driver data inside
struct rt2x00_dev, whose size is indicated by the low-level driver and
which can be populated by the low-level driver.

orinoco: Remove old mailing lists from MAINTAINERS
The two orinoco mailing lists on sourceforge were set up many years
ago and are now more or less moribund. I'd like to shut them down, so
I don't have to keep filtering the spam from them (which is most of
what comes through now). In preparation, this patch removes the
reference to them from the MAINTAINERS file. Any remaining discussion
of this approaching obsolete driver can go to the linux-wireless list.

zd1211rw: firmware needs duration_id set to zero for non-pspoll frames
Some devices (iwl5100) cannot connect to zd1211rw based AP. It appears that
zd1211 firmware messes up duration_id field if it is not set to zero by driver.
Sniffing traffic shows that zd1211 is transmitting frames with duration_id bits
14 and 15 set and other bits appearing random. Setting duration_id at driver to
zero results zd1211 outputting sane duration_id. This means that firmware is
setting correct values itself and expects duration_id to be zero in first
place.
Looking at vendor driver shows that only PSPoll frames have duration_id set by
driver, for other frames duration_id left zero.

mac80211: call rate control only after init
There are situations where we don't have the
necessary rate control information yet for
station entries, e.g. when associating. This
currently doesn't really happen due to the
dummy station handling; explicitly disabling
rate control when it's not initialised will
allow us to remove dummy stations.
