Franky Lin 38b0b0ddee brcmfmac: protect consecutive SDIO access with sdio_claim_host
Semaphore sdsem is used to protect consecutive memory access
through SDIO bus. Same functionality is provided by sdio_claim_host/
sdio_release_host interface as well. Replace sdsem with
sdio_claim_host.

Arend van Spriel bb451c8304 brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer access in brcmf_create_iovar()
The function brcmf_fil_bsscfg_data_get() calls brcmf_create_iovar()
with data pointer set to NULL, which caused a NULL pointer access.
As it should be possible to provide data in message towards the
firmware, it should just pass the data buffer instead.

Avinash Patil 47411a06c0 mwifiex: add multi-queue support
This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex
driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories
are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is
received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for
particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has
reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of
stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully
transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per
queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue
operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all
tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value
suddenly increases.

Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start
to enable traffic on all queues.

this patch adds card reset support for SDIO interface when
command timeout happens. If the SDIO host contoller supports
MMC_POWER_OFF|UP|ON operations, the chip will be reset and the
firmware will be re-downloaded.

Johannes Berg 04baaa27b4 iwlwifi: fix monitor mode FCS flag
When the firmware is in SNIFFER mode, it leaves
the FCS at the end of frame. Not telling mac80211
means it won't add the right flag to the radiotap
header and that confuses wireshark.

Since mac80211 doesn't have a per-packet flag, set
the HW flag dynamically. This works as the monitor
vif can only be present in the driver by itself.

This fixes a regression introduced by my

commands but also return an error (-EIO) and block any new
commands as well. Currently, an error is only returned if
WANT_SKB was set which is confusing and can lead to issues.

Blocking is done until a new firmware image is loaded.

Johannes Berg 6352c87ff6 mac80211: reassign channel contexts before stations
Since channel contexts are usually present before
stations can be added to an interface, reassign
before stations them in reconfiguration as well.

Johannes Berg 8b2c98243e mac80211: clarify interface iteration and make it configurable
During hardware restart, all interfaces are iterated even
though they haven't been re-added to the driver, document
this behaviour. The same also happens during resume, which
is even more confusing since all of the interfaces were
previously removed from the driver. Make this optional so
drivers relying on the current behaviour can still use it,
but to let drivers that don't want this behaviour disable
it.

Also convert all API users, keeping the old semantics
except in hwsim, where the new normal ones are desired.

Johannes Berg 9214ad7f9a mac80211: call driver method when restart completes
When the driver requests a restart (reconfiguration) it
gets all the normal method calls, but can't really tell
why they're happening. Call a new restart_complete op
in the driver when the restart completes, so it could
keep its own state about the restart and clear it there.

Johannes Berg 20f544eea0 mac80211: don't send null data packet when not associated
On resume or firmware recovery, mac80211 sends a null
data packet to see if the AP is still around and hasn't
disconnected us. However, it always does this even if
it wasn't even connected before, leading to a warning
in the new channel context code. Fix this by checking
that it's associated.
