2010-07-08wl1271: rewritten scanning codeLuciano Coelho
This patch is a complete rewrite of the scanning code. It now includes a state machine to scan all four possible sets of channels independently: 2.4GHz active, 2.4GHz passive, 5GHz active and 5GHz passive. The wl1271 firmware doesn't allow these sets to be mixed, so up to several scan commands have to be issued. This patch also allows scanning more than 24 channels per set, by breaking the sets into smaller parts if needed (the firmware can scan a maximum of 24 channels at a time). Previously, the scanning code was erroneously scanning all channels possible actively, not complying with the CRDA values. This is also fixed with this patch.

2010-07-08wl1271: moved scan operations to a separate fileLuciano Coelho
The scanning code is going to get a bit more complex, with proper support for active/passive scans together with 2.4GHz and 5GHz. In the future, also a new type of scan (periodic scan) will be added. When all this is implemented, the code is going to be much more complex, so we'd better separate it into a separate file. This patch doesn't have any impact on functionality.

2010-07-08wl1271: Work around AP's with broken ps-poll functionalityJuuso Oikarinen
Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll functionality. When powersave is enabled, these AP's will set the TIM bit for a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not respond with data. The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time. This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the chances of inbound data getting through. The side effect of this patch is increased power consumption when using a faulty AP.

2010-07-08wl1271: Remove calibration from join commandJuuso Oikarinen
This patch removes the calibration performed on the first join command. The reasoning is that this is unnecessary as devices get their calibration data via the NVS file, and because the commands break BT coexistence. This is actually safe, because of the implementation the calibration was executed on the first JOIN anyway, after an ifdown/ifup the devices have relied on the NVS for calibration anyway (== most of the time.)

2010-07-08mac80211: remove wep dependencyJohn W. Linville
The current mac80211 code assumes that WEP is always available. If WEP fails to initialize, ieee80211_register_hw will always fail. In some cases (e.g. FIPS certification), the cryptography used by WEP is unavailable. However, in such cases there is no good reason why CCMP encryption (or even no link level encryption) cannot be used. So, this patch removes mac80211's assumption that WEP (and TKIP) will always be available for use. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-07-07gianfar: code cleanupEran Liberty
This patch relates to "[PATCH] gainfar.c : skb_over_panic (kernel-2.6.32.15)" While in 2.6.32.15 it actually fixed a bug here it merely cleans up the previous attempts to fix the bug with a more coherent code. Currently before queuing skb into the rx_recycle it is "un-skb_reserve"-ed so when taken out in gfar_new_skb() it wont be reserved twice. This patch makes sure the alignment skb_reserve is done once, upon allocating the skb and not when taken out of the rx_recycle pool. Eliminating the need to undo anything before queue skb back to the pool. NOTE: This patch will compile and is fairly straight forward but I do not have environment to test it as I did with the 2.6.32.15 fix.

2010-07-07net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit archesEric Dumazet
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32 bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a 32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider. One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to dev_get_stats(). Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack) Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.
