Using the BSS information stored in mac80211 directly
is racy in certain conditions. For example, in a MCC
setup, if the scheduler is switching channels when
a local deauth is issued, calculation of the opmode/bssid
etc. is incorrect. To avoid this, store the bss params
in the driver and use it.

ath5k: Remove AHB bus support
AHB bus support was added in v2.6.38, through commit a0b907ee2a71
("ath5k: Add AHB bus support."). That code can only be build if the
Kconfig symbol ATHEROS_AR231X is set. But that symbol has never been

ieee802154: 6lowpan: ensure header compression does not corrupt ipv6 header
The 6lowpan ipv6 header compression was causing problems for other interfaces
that expected a ipv6 header to still be in place, as we were replacing the
ipv6 header with a compressed version. This happened if you sent a packet to a
multicast address as the packet would be output on 802.15.4, ethernet, and also
be sent to the loopback interface. The skb data was shared between these
interfaces so all interfaces ended up with a compressed ipv6 header.
The solution is to ensure that before we do any header compression we are not
sharing the skb or skb data with any other interface. If we are then we must
take a copy of the skb and skb data before modifying the ipv6 header.
The only place we can copy the skb is inside the xmit function so we don't
leave dangling references to skb.
This patch moves all the header compression to inside the xmit function. Very
little code has been changed it has mostly been moved from lowpan_header_create
to lowpan_xmit. At the top of the xmit function we now check if the skb is
shared and if so copy it. In lowpan_header_create all we do now is store the
source and destination addresses for use later when we compress the header.

iwlwifi: mvm: rs: fix logic in case of multiple TIDs
In case of traffic on multiple TIDs where one is aggregated
and the other is not RS would toggle between considering
traffic vs. the station as aggregated and not aggregated.
Instead consider the sta state as aggregated as long as
there's at least one TID aggregated.
This limitation is because the rates table is kept per
station and not per TID.
Currently BA notifications which don't reclaim any frames
would not cause the RS to be called as no skbs are passed
to mac80211. This is not optimal as RS can benefit from the
statistics of sent vs. acked of such a BA. This can improve the
reaction time of the RS algorithm. Also, an upcoming change in
the firmware would cause BA timeout to be reported as a BA notif
with 0 acked so this change is required for that as well.
iwlwifi: mvm: limit aggregation size in low latency to 6
This is a tradeoff between enabling better throughput for
bursty traffic and low latency. The number 6 was found to be

Also this is a first step in decoupling rs from the

even for the chipsets supporting SDIO new mode (32 ports).
We will get rid of this chip specific handling.

When aggregation port limit is reached, we stop aggregation and
the data is sent to firmware. It is observed that one less packet
than the port limit is aggregated in this case. ex. 15 instead of
16.
The reason is we have redundant port limit checks before current
packet is added to aggregation buffer.
The issue is fixed by removing these checks. We already have
necessary check in precopy current buffer handling.

mwifiex: fix 5G association failure after leaving 2.4G IBSS
When assocaiting to an AP , mwifiex set supported data rates
based on target AP's capability. For 5G AP(11a mode), a/n/ac mode
would possibly be set.
However, for some chips which dont support 11AC mode current config_bands
will be used instead.
For example, if we join an IBSS in 11b mode ,adapter->config_bands
will be set to 1(11b mode). Then we leave IBSS ,and try to connect
5G a/n mode AP. At this time , only 11b mode data rates will be
supported in assoc request , which result in assoc failure with
reason code 18: Association denied due to requesting station not
supporting all rates.
This patch fix such a cornel case, by adding additional check for
current chip's 11ac capability.
