First probe for proprietary firmware and then probe for opensource firmware.
This way around it's a win-win situation.
1) If proprietary fw is available, it will work.
2) If opensource firmware is available, but no proprietary (Distros can only ship open fw)
it might work.
3) If both open and proprietary are available, it will work, because it selects

rtl8187: Fix driver to return TX retry info for RTL8187L
Current code for the RTL8187 is not returning valid retry information, thus the

is only obtained by reading a register, which cannot be read while in interrupt
context.
This patch implements the TX status return to mac80211 through the use of a

One additional problem is that the driver currently enables the rate fallback
mechanism of the device, which conflicts with the mac80211 rate-setting

This is the same patch for p54spi.
It removes all N800/N810 specific code from p54spi, so the driver can be used on
other architectures, or configurations as well.

A recent change in the usb core "USB: change interface to usb_lock_device_for_reset()"
conflicts with "p54usb: utilize usb_reset_device for 3887".
Sadly, we have to call usb_reset_device before we can upload the firmware on 3887.
Unless someone figures out how to reliably stop the 3887 so the hardware is still usable
next time we want to start it.

nl80211: New command for adding extra IE(s) into management frames
A new nl80211 command, NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE, can be used to
add arbitrary IE data into the end of management frames. The interface
allows extra IEs to be configured for each management frame subtype, but
only some of them (ProbeReq, ProbeResp, Auth, (Re)AssocReq, Deauth,
Disassoc) are currently accepted in mac80211 implementation.
This makes it easier to implement IEEE 802.11 extensions like WPS and
FT that add IE(s) into some management frames. In addition, this can
be useful for testing and experimentation purposes.

iwl3945: report killswitch changes even if the interface is down
Currently iwl3945 is not able to report hw-killswitch events while the
interface is down. This has implications on user space tools (like
NetworkManager) relying on rfkill notifications to bring the interface
up once the wireless gets enabled through a hw killswitch.
Thus, enable the device already in iwl3945_pci_probe instead of iwl3945_up
and poll the CSR_GP_CNTRL register to update the killswitch state every
two seconds. The polling is only needed on 3945 hardware as this adapter
does not use interrupts to signal rfkill changes to the driver (in case no
firmware is loaded). The firmware loading is still done in iwl3945_up.
