The wl12xx FW supports HW channel switch. If we don't use it,
sometimes the firmware gets confused when recalibrating to the new
channel, causing RX problems. This commit adds HW channel switch
support by implementing the channell_switch op.

p2p packets should go out only with OFDM rates.
Configure a new rate policy that will (later) be used
during p2p_find (when the p2p_cli / p2p_go interfaces
are in use, we won't have to use this policy, as
the configured rates should already be OFDM-only).
Additionally, update CONF_TX_MAX_RATE_CLASSES to reflect
the current value from the fw api.

In summary, this DMI quirk uses the _CRS info by default for the ASUS
M2V-MX SE by turning on `pci=use_crs` and is similar to the quirk
added by commit 2491762cfb47 ("x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info on
ASRock ALiveSATA2-GLAN") whose commit message should be read for further
information.
Since commit 3e3da00c01d0 ("x86/pci: AMD one chain system to use pci

Trusting the ACPI _CRS information (`pci=use_crs`) fixes this problem.
$ dmesg | grep -i crs # with the quirk
PCI: Using host bridge windows from ACPI; if necessary, use "pci=nocrs" and report a bug
The match has to be against the DMI board entries though since the vendor entries are not populated.
DMI: System manufacturer System Product Name/M2V-MX SE, BIOS 0304 10/30/2007
This quirk should be removed when `pci=use_crs` is enabled for machines

Using coreboot [1] with this board the problem does not exist but this
quirk also does not affect it either. To be safe though the check is
tightened to only take effect when the BIOS from American Megatrends is
used.

This is based on an earlier patch by Nick Carter with comments
by David Lamparter but with some refinements. Thanks for their patience
this is a confusing area with overlap of standards, user requirements,
and compatibility with earlier releases.
It adds a new sysfs attribute
/sys/class/net/brX/bridge/group_fwd_mask
that controls forwarding of frames with address of: 01-80-C2-00-00-0X
The default setting has no forwarding to retain compatibility.
One change from earlier releases is that forwarding of group
addresses is not dependent on STP being enabled or disabled. This
choice was made based on interpretation of tie 802.1 standards.
I expect complaints will arise because of this, but better to follow
the standard than continue acting incorrectly by default.
The filtering mask is writeable, but only values that don't forward
known control frames are allowed. It intentionally blocks attempts
to filter control protocols. For example: writing a 8 allows
forwarding 802.1X PAE addresses which is the most common request.

This resolves a regression seen by some users of bridging.
Some users use the bridge like a dummy device.
They expect to be able to put an IPv6 address on the device
with no ports attached. Although there are better ways of doing
this, there is no reason to not allow it.
Note: the bridge still will reflect the state of ports in the
bridge if there are any added.

There's no good reason to turn off the eDP force VDD bit synchronously
while probing devices; that just sticks a huge delay into all mode

appropriate delay is respected before trying to turn it back on.

Store the panel power sequencing delays in the dp private structure,
rather than the global device structure. Who knows, maybe we'll get
more than one eDP device in the future.
From the eDP spec, we need the following numbers:
T1 + T3 Power on to Aux Channel operation (panel_power_up_delay)
This marks how long it takes the panel to boot up and
get ready to receive aux channel communications.
T8 Video signal to backlight on (backlight_on_delay)
Once a valid video signal is being sent to the device,
it can take a while before the panel is actuall
showing useful data. This delay allows the panel
to get something reasonable up before the backlight
is turned on.
T9 Backlight off to video off (backlight_off_delay)
Turning the backlight off can take a moment, so
this delay makes sure there is still valid video
data on the screen.
T10 Video off to power off (panel_power_down_delay)
Presumably this delay allows the panel to perform
an orderly shutdown of the display.
T11 + T12 Power off to power on (panel_power_cycle_delay)
So, once you turn the panel off, you have to wait a
while before you can turn it back on. This delay is
usually the longest in the entire sequence.
Neither the VBIOS source code nor the hardware documentation has a
clear mapping between the delay values they provide and those required
by the eDP spec. The VBIOS code actually uses two different labels for
the delay values in the five words of the relevant VBT table.
**** MORE LATER ***
Look at both the current hardware register settings and the VBT
specified panel power sequencing timings. Use the maximum of the two
delays, to make sure things work reliably. If there is no VBT data,
then those values will be initialized to zero, so we'll just use the
values as programmed in the hardware. Note that the BIOS just fetches
delays from the VBT table to place in the hardware registers, so we
should get the same values from both places, except for rounding.
VBT doesn't provide any values for T1 or T2, so we'll always just use
the hardware value for that.
The panel power up delay is thus T1 + T2 + T3, which should be
sufficient in all cases.
The panel power down delay is T1 + T2 + T12, using T1+T2 as a proxy
for T11, which isn't available anywhere.
For the backlight delays, the eDP spec says T6 + T8 is the delay from the
end of link training to backlight on and T9 is the delay from
backlight off until video off. The hardware provides a 'backlight on'
delay, which I'm taking to be T6 + T8 while the VBT provides something
called 'T7', which I'm assuming is s
On the macbook air I'm testing with, this yields a power-up delay of
over 200ms and a power-down delay of over 600ms. It all works now, but
we're frobbing these power controls several times during mode setting,
making the whole process take an awfully long time.

For nohz kernels, for the cpu doing nohz idle load balance on behalf of
all the idle cpu's, its rq->idle_at_tick might have a stale value (which is
recorded when it got the timer tick presumably when it is busy).
As the nohz idle load balancing is also being done at the same place
as the regular load balancing, nohz idle load balancing was bailing out
when it sees rq's idle_at_tick not set.
Thus leading to poor system utilization.
Rename rq's idle_at_tick to idle_balance and set it when someone requests
for nohz idle balance on an idle cpu.

Current use of smp call function to kick the nohz idle balance can deadlock
in this scenario.
1. cpu-A did a generic_exec_single() to cpu-B and after queuing its call single
data (csd) to the call single queue, cpu-A took a timer interrupt. Actual IPI
to cpu-B to process the call single queue is not yet sent.
2. As part of the timer interrupt handler, cpu-A decided to kick cpu-B
for the idle load balancing (sets cpu-B's rq->nohz_balance_kick to 1)
and __smp_call_function_single() with nowait will queue the csd to the
cpu-B's queue. But the generic_exec_single() won't send an IPI to cpu-B
as the call single queue was not empty.
3. cpu-A is busy with lot of interrupts
4. Meanwhile cpu-B is entering and exiting idle and noticed that it has
it's rq->nohz_balance_kick set to '1'. So it will go ahead and do the
idle load balancer and clear its rq->nohz_balance_kick.
5. At this point, csd queued as part of the step-2 above is still locked
and waiting to be serviced on cpu-B.
6. cpu-A is still busy with interrupt load and now it got another timer
interrupt and as part of it decided to kick cpu-B for another idle load
balancing (as it finds cpu-B's rq->nohz_balance_kick cleared in step-4
above) and does __smp_call_function_single() with the same csd that is
still locked.
7. And we get a deadlock waiting for the csd_lock() in the
__smp_call_function_single().
Main issue here is that cpu-B can service the idle load balancer kick
request from cpu-A even with out receiving the IPI and this lead to
doing multiple __smp_call_function_single() on the same csd leading to
deadlock.
To kick a cpu, scheduler already has the reschedule vector reserved. Use
that mechanism (kick_process()) instead of using the generic smp call function
mechanism to kick off the nohz idle load balancing and avoid the deadlock.
[ This issue is present from 2.6.35+ kernels, but marking it -stable
only from v3.0+ as the proposed fix depends on the scheduler_ipi()
that is introduced recently. ]

The encoders are supposedly fully routeable, but changing the mapping
doesn't always seem to take. Using a hardcoded mapping is much more
reliable.
