cfg80211: don't allow disabling WEXT if it's required
The change to only export WEXT symbols when required could break
the build if CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT was explicitly disabled while
a driver like orinoco selected it.
Fix this by hiding the symbol when it's required so it can't be
disabled in that case.

mac80211: add an intermediate software queue implementation
This allows drivers to request per-vif and per-sta-tid queues from which
they can pull frames. This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues
short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs.
The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver -
queueing is controlled by mac80211. Drivers can only dequeue packets by
calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue. This makes it possible to add active queue
management later without changing drivers using this code.
This can also be used as a starting point to implement A-MSDU
aggregation in a way that does not add artificially induced latency.

mac80211: use rhashtable for station table
We currently have a hand-rolled table with 256 entries and are
using the last byte of the MAC address as the hash. This hash
is obviously very fast, but collisions are easily created and
we waste a lot of space in the common case of just connecting
as a client to an AP where we just have a single station. The
other common case of an AP is also suboptimal due to the size
of the hash table and the ease of causing collisions.
Convert all of this to use rhashtable with jhash, which gives
us the advantage of a far better hash function (with random
perturbation to avoid hash collision attacks) and of course
that the hash table grows and shrinks dynamically with chain
length, improving both cases above.
Use a specialised hash function (using jhash, but with fixed
length) to achieve better compiler optimisation as suggested
by Sergey Ryazanov.

lesser value but it would be better to be consistent between IPv6 and IPv4
and they still serve as documentation.
The conversion is straightforward and the resulting patches are not that
large, thus I kept all the changes in the patches that introduce the access
functions. If anyone prefers to split the definition of access functions and
the conversion and/or break it out by network protocols, please let me know.

netlink: implement nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addr
IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions
to do that.
For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is
not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is
used to store IPv4 address.

fib_trie: Cleanup ip_fib_net_exit code path
While fixing a recent issue I noticed that we are doing some unnecessary

initialization to NULL for the locally stored fib_local, fib_main, and
fib_default.
In addition I am restoring the original code for flushing the table as
there is no need to split up the fib_table_flush and hlist_del work since
the code for packing the tnodes with multiple key vectors was dropped.

The issue was that as a part of exiting the default rules were being
deleted which resulted in the local trie being unmerged. By moving the
freeing of the FIB tables up we can avoid the unmerge since there is no
local table left when we call the fib4_rules_exit function.

Fixed two warnings in e1000e and igb, when switching to timespec64
some printf formats started to not match. In theses cases actually
the new type is __kernel_time_t which is __kernel_long_t which
unfortunately can be either "long" or "long long". So to solve
this I cases the arguments to "long long". -DaveM

ptp: get ready for 2038
This series converts the core driver methods of the PTP Hardware Clock
(PHC) subsystem to use the 64 bit version of the timespec structure,
making the core API ready for the year 2038.
In addition, I reviewed how each driver and device represents the time
value at the hardware register level. Most of the drivers are ready,
but a few will need some work before the year 2038, as shown:
The commit log messages document how each driver is ready or why it is
not ready. For patch 15, I could not easily find out the hardware
representation of the time value, and so the SFC maintainers will have
to review their low level code in order to resolve any remaining
issues.
* ChangeLog
** V3
- dp83640: use timespec64 throughout per Arnd's suggestion
- tilegx: use timespec64 throughout per Chris' suggestion
- add Jeff's acked-bys
** V2
- use the new methods in the posix clock code right away (patch #3)
