2011-10-11b43: trivial: do not report any link quality instead of invalid oneRafał Miłecki
We don't want to report random quality info (new PHYs are affected). Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-10-11rtlwifi: Change debug parameter to apply to individual driversLarry Finger
The current debug parameter is applied to rtlwifi, which means that all loaded drivers have the same level of debugging applied.

2011-10-11mac80211: dont orphan TX skbJohannes Berg
This was another workaround for truesize "bugs". The reason we did this was that when we orphaned the SKB it wouldn't be truesize-checked later. Now that the check is gone (and we just charge the former smaller size to the socket) there's no longer a reason to orphan the skb here. Keep the skb charged to the socket until it is really freed (or orphaned in TX status). This helps flow control and allows us to get at the socket later for other purposes.

2011-10-11mac80211: dont adjust truesizeJohannes Berg
There's no need to adjust truesize. The history of this was that we always ran into skb_truesize_bug (via skb_truesize_check) which has since been removed in commit 92a0acce186cd. skb_truesize_check() checked that truesize was bigger or equal to the actual allocation, which would trigger in mac80211 due to header adding. The check no longer exists and we shouldn't be messing with the truesize anwyay. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-10-11mac80211: parse radiotap header earlierJohannes Berg
We can now move the radiotap header parsing into ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit(). This moves it out of the hotpath, and also helps the code since now the radiotap header will no longer be present in ieee80211_xmit() etc. which is easier to understand.

2011-10-11mac80211: move fragment flag to info flag as dont-fragmentJohannes Berg
The purpose of this is two-fold: 1) by moving it out of tx_data.flags, we can in another patch move the radiotap parsing so it no longer is in the hotpath 2) if a device implements fragmentation but can optionally skip it, the radiotap request for not doing fragmentation may be honoured Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-10-11ath9k: remove some bogus error handling codeDan Carpenter
If "axq_qnum >= ARRAY_SIZE(sc->tx.txq)", then the call to ath9k_hw_releasetxqueue() would read beyond the end of the ah->txq[] array and possibly corrupt memory.

2011-10-11ath5k: remove some unneeded error handling codeDan Carpenter
th5k_hw_setup_tx_queue() returns a valid offset into the ah->ah_txq[] array. The ah->ah_txq[] and the ah->txqs[] array are the same size. Both have AR5K_NUM_TX_QUEUES elements. So this error handling code will never trigger. Also it's wrong. The call to ath5k_hw_release_tx_queue() with a qnum of AR5K_NUM_TX_QUEUES or more will just trigger a WARN_ON() and return. Or if it missed the WARN_ON(), it would just corrupt some memory and return.

2011-10-11perf hists browser: Recalculate browser pointers after resort/decayArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
In browsers that access dynamic underlying data structures, like in the hists browser and its hist_entry rb_tree, we need to revalidate any reference to the underlying data structure, because they can have gone away, decayed. This fixes a problem where after a while the top entries get behind the top of the screen, i.e. the top_idx stays at 0, which means it is at the first entry in the rb_tree when in fact it wasn't because the browser->top didn't got revalidated after the timer ran and the underlying data structure got updated.

2011-10-11xfs: revert to using a kthread for AIL pushingChristoph Hellwig
Currently we have a few issues with the way the workqueue code is used to implement AIL pushing: - it accidentally uses the same workqueue as the syncer action, and thus can be prevented from running if there are enough sync actions active in the system. - it doesn't use the HIGHPRI flag to queue at the head of the queue of work items At this point I'm not confident enough in getting all the workqueue flags and tweaks right to provide a perfectly reliable execution context for AIL pushing, which is the most important piece in XFS to make forward progress when the log fills. Revert back to use a kthread per filesystem which fixes all the above issues at the cost of having a task struct and stack around for each mounted filesystem. In addition this also gives us much better ways to diagnose any issues involving hung AIL pushing and removes a small amount of code.

2011-10-11staging: zcache: fix crash on cpu removeSeth Jennings
In the case that a cpu is taken offline before zcache_do_preload() is ever called on the cpu, the per-cpu zcache_preloads structure will be uninitialized. In the CPU_DEAD case for zcache_cpu_notifier(), kp->obj is not checked before calling kmem_cache_free() on it. If it is NULL, a crash results. This patch ensures that both kp->obj and kp->page are not NULL before calling the respective free functions. In practice, just checking one or the other should be sufficient since they are assigned together in zcache_do_preload(), but I check both for safety.
