register_sysctl_rotable never caught on as an interesting way to
register sysctls. My take on the situation is that what we want are
sysctls that we can only see in the initial network namespace. What we
have implemented with register_sysctl_rotable are sysctls that we can
see in all of the network namespaces and can only change in the initial
network namespace.
That is a very silly way to go. Just register the network sysctls
in the initial network namespace and we don't have any weird special
cases to deal with.
The sysctls affected are:
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_max_dist
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/mld_max_msf
I really don't expect anyone will miss them if they can't read them in a
child user namespace.

Right now all of the networking sysctl registrations are running in a
compatibiity mode. The natvie sysctl registration api takes a cstring
for a path and a simple ctl_table. Implement register_net_sysctl so
that we can register network sysctls without needing to use
compatiblity code in the sysctl core.
Switching from a ctl_path to a cstring results in less boiler plate
and denser code that is a little easier to read.
I would simply have changed the arguments to register_net_sysctl_table
instead of keeping two functions in parallel but gcc will allow a
ctl_path pointer to be passed to a char * pointer with only issuing a
warning resulting in completely incorrect code can be built. Since I
have to change the function name I am taking advantage of the situation
to let both register_net_sysctl and register_net_sysctl_table live for a
short time in parallel which makes clean conversion patches a bit easier
to read and write.

batman-adv: use ETH_HLEN instead of sizeof(struct ethhdr)
Instead of using sizeof(struct ethhdr) it is strongly recommended to use the
kernel macro ETH_HLEN. This patch substitute each occurrence of the former
expressione with the latter one.

dmfe: enforce consistent timing delay.
The driver does not always use the same timing for what looks like
the same operations.
- DCR0
Use the same udelay everywhere for reset. Upper bound is 100 us.
- DCR9
Use 5us delay for srom clock. 1us delay for phy_write_1bit (writes
PHY_DATA_[01]) are not changed as they stay withing a 2,5MHz MDIO
clock range.

We get two timing related fields for each bss from firmware in scan
results.
1) timestamp - Actual timestamp information in probe response/beacon
2) network_tsf - firmware's TSF value at the time the beacon or probe
response was received.
Both are needed while associating by firmware.
The patch takes care of following things.
1) We should pass "timestamp" to cfg80211_inform_bss(), but currently
"network_tsf" is being provided. This error is corrected here.
2) Rename "network_tsf" to "fw_tsf"
3) Make use of u64 variable instead of an array of u8/u32 to save
parsed "timestamp" information.
4) Use timestamp provided to stack in scan results using
cfg80211_inform_bss() while associating. (bss->tsf)
5) Allocate space to save fw_tsf in "priv" of cfg80211_bss
and retrieve it while associating.

As described at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/86084
libertas is taking a long time to load because it loads firmware
during module loading.
Add a new API for interface drivers to load their firmware
asynchronously. The same semantics of the firmware table are followed
like before.
Interface drivers will be converted in follow-up patches, then we can
remove the old, synchronous firmware loading function.

libertas: harden-up exit paths
These simple sanity check avoids extra complexity in error paths when
moving to asynchronous firmware loading (which means the device may fail to
init some time after its creation).

libertas: Firmware loading simplifications
Remove the ability to pass module parameters with firmware filenames
for USB and SDIO interfaces.
Remove the ability to pass custom "user" filenames to lbs_get_firmware().
Remove the ability to reprogram internal device memory with a different
firmware from the USB driver (we don't know of any users), and simplify
the OLPC firmware loading quirk to simply placing the OLPC firmware
at the top of the list (we don't know of any users other than OLPC).
Move lbs_get_firmware() into its own file.
These simplifications should have no real-life effect but make the
upcoming transition to asynchronous firmware loading considerably less
painful.

rt2x00: Don't let mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails
There are connection stalls or very poor throughputs with rt2800
hardware using 802.11n in AP mode since patch "mac80211: retry sending
failed BAR frames later instead of tearing down aggr"[1][2].
Since rt2800 hardware is not able to correctly report the tx status of
BAR frames, this patch removes as workaround the existing error handling
on AP side, which lets mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails.
As a result, most wifi clients (aside from Intel STAs on Windows)
instead will timeout now the reorder buffer and request the lost frame
again.
The correct solution would be, to tear down BA session on AP side.
This patch was born on the basis of "[RFT] rt2x00: Tear down BA
session on QoS frame failure"[3].
