Merge branch 'for-3.6-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
"It's later than I'd like but well the timing just didn't work out this
time.
There are three bug fixes. One from before 3.6-rc1 and two from the
new CPU hotplug code. Kudos to Lai for discovering all of them and
providing fixes.
* Atomicity bug when clearing a flag and setting another. The two
operation should have been atomic but wasn't. This bug has existed
for a long time but is unlikely to have actually happened. Fix is
safe. Marked for -stable.
* If CPU hotplug cycles happen back-to-back before workers finish the
previous cycle, the states could get out of sync and it could get
stuck. Fixed by waiting for workers to complete before finishing
hotplug cycle.
* While CPU hotplug is in progress, idle workers could be depleted
which can then lead to deadlock. I think both happening together
is highly unlikely but still better to fix it and the fix isn't too
scary.
There's another workqueue related regression which reported a few days
ago:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47301
It's a bit of head scratcher but there is a semi-reliable reproduce
case, so I'm hoping to resolve it soonish."
* 'for-3.6-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
workqueue: fix possible idle worker depletion across CPU hotplug
workqueue: restore POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS
workqueue: fix possible deadlock in idle worker rebinding
workqueue: move WORKER_REBIND clearing in rebind_workers() to the end of the function
workqueue: UNBOUND -> REBIND morphing in rebind_workers() should be atomic
Pull crypto fixes from Herbert Xu:
"This fixes the authenc self-test crash as well as a missing export of
a symbol used by a module."
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/crypto-2.6:
crypto: authenc - Fix crash with zero-length assoc data
crypto/caam: Export gen_split_key symbol for other modules

Pull blackfin updates from Bob Liu:
"One kbuild and a smp build fix."

kbuild: add symbol prefix arg to kallsyms

powerpc/powernv: I/O and memory alignment for P2P bridges
The patch implements ppc_md.pcibios_window_alignment for powernv
platform so that the resource reassignment in PCI core will be
done according to the I/O and memory alignment returned from
powernv platform. The alignments returned from powernv platform
is closely depending on the scheme for PE segmenting. Besides,
the patch isn't useful for now, but the subsequent patches will
be working based on it.

This patch implements pcibios_window_alignment() so powerpc platforms can
force P2P bridge windows to be at larger alignments than the PCI spec
requires.
The original idea comes from Ram Pai. This patch puts the chunk of
code for calculating the minimal alignment of memory window into a
separate inline function.
PCI: Align P2P windows using pcibios_window_alignment()
This patch changes pbus_size_io() and pbus_size_mem() to do window (I/O,
memory and prefetchable memory) reassignment based on the minimal
alignments for the P2P bridge, which was retrieved by window_alignment().
This patch implements a weak function to return the default I/O or memory
window alignment for a P2P bridge. By default, I/O windows are aligned to
4KiB or 1KiB and memory windows are aligned to 4MiB. Some platforms, e.g.,
powernv, have special alignment requirements and can override
pcibios_window_alignment().
added a device specific entry assuming that the device would use
class/subclass/proto == ff/ff/ff like other ZTE devices. It
turns out that ZTE has started using vendor specific subclass
and protocol codes:
We do not have any information on how ZTE intend to use these
codes, but let us assume for now that the 3 sets matching
serial functions in the K5006-Z always will identify a serial
function in a ZTE device.

libertas: set mac control synchronously during init
CMD_MAC_CONTROL is currently sent async to the firmware, and is sent
from the lbs_setup_firmware() path during device init.
This means that device init can complete with commands pending, and
the if_sdio driver will sometimes power down the device (after init)
with this command still pending.
This was causing an occasional spurious command timeout after init,
leading to a device reset.
Fix this by making CMD_MAC_CONTROL synchronous when called from the
lbs_setup_firmware() path.

This patch adds separate tx packet descriptor routine for AP
interface. This function fills bss_type, bss_num, wmm packet
delay information etc for TxPD going on AP interface.

mwifiex: do not hint regulatory domain with f/w country code
We will use world regulatory domain (country 00) as default
when driver is loaded. Later after a successful association
cfg80211 will change the regulatory domain to a specific country
if the AP has advertised country IE.

mwifiex: use country ie of requested AP while associating
AP's country ie is parsed and 11d information is updated in firmware
while associating. Previous mwifiex_send_domain_info_cmd_fw() call in
association path is not necessary now. Hence it is removed in this
patch.

"adapter->bss_prio_tbl[j].bss_prio_head" points to linked list of
interfaces with priority 'j'. "bss_prio_tbl[j].bss_prio_cur" is
supposed to point to next interface every time the routine for
dequeuing the packet is called. This ensures that each interface
gets fair chance.
Currently we have AP and station interfaces with priority '0'.
Therefore "adapter->bss_prio_tbl[0].bss_prio_cur" should
alternately point to AP and station nodes. Since "bss_prio_cur"
is not correctly updated, for each packet picked for AP, two
packets are picked for station interface.
This patch fixes the problem by correctly updating "bss_prio_cur".
