Firmware folks seem say that this flag can make trouble.
Drop it. The advantage of CTS to self is that it slightly
reduces the cost of the protection, but make the protection
less reliable.
We should always prefer to use full RTS protection. Using
CTS to self gives a meaningless improvement, but this flow
is much harder for the firmware which is likely to have
issues with it.

rtl818x_pci: fix pci probe returns success when it fails
There are several exit path from the PCI probe function.
Some of them, that are taken in case of errors, forget to set the "err"
variable, that is returned by the probe function.
This can lead to the kernel thinking the probe function succeeds while it
didn't, and this in turn causes extra calls to the "remove" function.
This patch fix this problem by ensuring "err" variable is assigned to a proper
non-zero value in each exit path.

rtl818x_pci: handle broken PIO mapping
All boards supported by this driver could work using PIO or MMIO for accessing
registers.
This driver tries to access HW by using MMIO, and, if this fails for somewhat
reason, the driver tries to fall back to PIO mode.
MMIO-mode is straightforward on all boards.
PIO-mode is straightforward on rtl8180 only.
On rtl8185 and rtl8187se boards not all registers are directly available in PIO
mode (they are paged).
On rtl8185 there are two pages and it is known how to switch page.
PIO mode works, except for only one access to a register out of default page,
recently added by me in the initialization code with patch:
rtl818x_pci: Fix rtl8185 excessive IFS after CTS-to-self
This can be easily fixed to work in both cases (MMIO and PIO).
On rtl8187se, for a number of reasons, there is much more work to do to fix PIO
access.
PIO access is currently broken on rtl8187se, and it never worked.
This patch fixes the said register write for rtl8185 and makes the driver to
fail cleanly if PIO mode is attempted with rtl8187se boards.
While doing this, I converted also a couple of printk(KERN_ERR) to dev_err(), in
order to make checkpatch happy.

rtl8180: disable buggy rate fallback mechanism
Currently the driver configures mac80211 to provide two rates for each TX frame:
One initial rate and one alternate fallback rate, each one with its retry count.
HW does not support fully this: rtl8180 doesn't have support for rate scaling at
all, and rtl8185/rtl8187SE supports it in a way that does not fit with mac80211:
The HW does automatically fall back to the next lower rate, and only a lower
limit can be specified, so the HW may TX also on rates in between the two rates
specified by mac80211. Furthermore only the total TX retry count can be
specified for each packet, while the number of TX attempts before scaling rate
can be configured only globally (not per each packet).
Currently the driver sets the HW auto rate fallback mechanism to quickly scale
rate after a couple of retries, and it uses the alternate rate requested by
mac80211 as fallback limit rate (and it does this even wrongly).
The HW indeed will behave differently than what mac80211 mandates, that is
probably undesirable, and the reported TX retry count may not refer to what
mac80211 thinks, and this could fool mac80211.
This patch makes the driver to declare to mac80211 to support only one rate
configuration for each packet, and it does disable the HW auto rate fallback
mechanism, relying only on SW and letting mac80211 to do all by itself.
This should ensure correct operation and fairness respect to mac80211.
Indeed here tests with iperf do not show significant performance differences.

Measuring time between _end_ of CTS-to-self and _end_ of datapacket (with a
prism54 board and mac80211 hacked to let the MAC timestamp stay untouched in the
radiotap header) resulted in about 300uS, while the datapacket itself should be
by far shorter (less than 100uS) and IFS should be SIFS (10uS).
This measure was confirmed whith a scope: about 250uS IFS has been seen between
the two packets.
This situation causes the CTS-to-self protection mechanism to work incorrectly
due to the NAV expiring during, or even before beginning, the packet
transmission, and it also causes the performances to be anyway reduced due to
time waste.
This problem has been seen at every packet TXed with CTS-to-self enabled on
rtl8185 board.
rtl8187se seems not affected (and rtl8180, being a 802.11b card, does not have

iwlwifi: add device / firmware to fw-error-dump file
This can be useful later for parsing since the parsing may
differ based on the device's family / bus.

iwlwifi: mvm: add back support for low-priority scan
The low-priority scan feature can be useful, e.g. for OBSS
scans (if those are required by the AP); add back support
for it, restoring the maximum out time to the value it was
for low-priority scan before that was removed.

mac80211: protect TDLS discovery session
After sending a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on
the AP's channel. We must stay on the channel (no PSM, scan, etc.), since
a TDLS setup-response is a direct packet not buffered by the AP.
Add a new mac80211 driver callback to allow discovery session protection.
