To simplify the locking and not require cfg80211_mutex
(which nl80211 uses to access the global regdomain) and
also to make it possible for drivers to access their
wiphy->regd safely, use RCU to protect these pointers.

Instead of assigning after calling the function do

The channel bandwidth handling isn't really quite right,
it assumes that a 40 MHz channel is really two 20 MHz
channels, which isn't strictly true. This is the way the
regulatory database handling is defined right now though
so remove the logic to handle other channel widths.

There's a bug with the world regulatory domain, it
can be updated any time which is different from all
other regdomains that can only be updated once after
a request for them. Fix this by adding a check for
"processed" to the reg_is_valid_request() function
and clear that when doing a request.
While looking at this I also found another locking
bug, last_request is protected by the reg_mutex not
the cfg80211_mutex so the code in nl80211 is racy.
Remove that code as it only tries to prevent an
allocation in an error case, which isn't necessary.
Then the function can also become static and locking
in nl80211 can have a smaller scope.
Also change __set_regdom() to do the checks earlier
and not different for world/other regdomains.

Many places that currently check that cfg80211_mutex
is held don't actually use any data protected by it.
The functions that need to hold the cfg80211_mutex
are the ones using the cfg80211_regdomain variable,
so add the lock assertion to those and clarify this
in the comments.
The reason for this is that nl80211 uses the regdom
without being able to hold reg_mutex.

The function itself has dual-purpose: it can
retrieve from a given regdomain or from the
globally installed one. Change it to have a
single purpose only: to look up from a given
regdomain. Pass the correct regdomain in the
freq_reg_info() function instead.
This also changes the locking rules for it,
no locking is required any more.

When AP's SSID is hidden the BSS can appear several times in
cfg80211's BSS list: once with a zero-length SSID that comes
from the beacon, and once for each SSID from probe reponses.
Since the mac80211 stores its data in ieee80211_bss which
is embedded into cfg80211_bss, mac80211's data will be
duplicated too.
This becomes a problem when a driver needs the dtim_period
since this data exists only in the beacon's instance in
cfg80211 bss table which isn't the instance that is used
when associating.
Remove the DTIM period from the BSS table and track it
explicitly to avoid this problem.

This is a very old bug, but there's nothing that prevents the
timer from running while the module is being removed when we
only do del_timer() instead of del_timer_sync().
The timer should normally not be running at this point, but
it's not clearly impossible (or we could just remove this.)

Unfortunately, commit b22cfcfcae5b, intended to speed up roaming
by avoiding the synchronize_rcu() broke AP/mesh modes as it moved
some code into that work item that will still call into the driver
at a time where it's no longer expected to handle this: after the
AP or mesh has been stopped.
To fix this problem remove the per-station work struct, maintain a
station cleanup list instead and flush this list when stations are
flushed. To keep this patch smaller for stable, do this when the
stations are flushed (sta_info_flush()). This unfortunately brings
back the original roaming delay; I'll fix that again in a separate
patch.
Also, Ben reported that the original commit could sometimes (with
many interfaces) cause long delays when an interface is set down,
due to blocking on flush_workqueue(). Since we now maintain the
cleanup list, this particular change of the original patch can be
reverted.

Commit 63233159fd4e596568f5f168ecb0879b61631d47:
bridge: Do not unregister all PF_BRIDGE rtnl operations
introduced a bug where a removal of a single bridge from a
multi-bridge system would remove MDB netlink handlers.
The handlers should only be removed once all bridges are gone, but
since we don't keep track of the number of bridge interfaces, it's
simpler to do it when the bridge module is unloaded. To make it
consistent, move the registration code into module initialization
code path.

Currently, we return -EINVAL for malformed or wrong BPF filters.
However, this is not done for BPF_S_ANC* operations, which makes it
more difficult to detect if it's actually supported or not by the
BPF machine. Therefore, we should also return -EINVAL if K is within
the SKF_AD_OFF universe and the ancillary operation did not match.
Why exactly is it needed? If tools such as libpcap/tcpdump want to
make use of new ancillary operations (like filtering VLAN in kernel
space), there is currently no sane way to test if this feature /
BPF_S_ANC* op is present or not, since no error is returned. This
patch will make life easier for that and allow for a proper usage
for user space applications.
There was concern, if this patch will break userland. Short answer: Yes
and no. Long answer: It will "break" only for code that calls ...
{ BPF_LD | BPF_(W|H|B) | BPF_ABS, 0, 0, <K> },
... where <K> is in [0xfffff000, 0xffffffff] _and_ <K> is *not* an
ancillary. And here comes the BUT: assuming some *old* code will have
such an instruction where <K> is between [0xfffff000, 0xffffffff] and
it doesn't know ancillary operations, then this will give a
non-expected / unwanted behavior as well (since we do not return the
BPF machine with 0 after a failed load_pointer(), which was the case
before introducing ancillary operations, but load sth. into the
accumulator instead, and continue with the next instruction, for
instance). Thus, user space code would already have been broken by
introducing ancillary operations into the BPF machine per se. Code
that does such a direct load, e.g. "load word at packet offset
0xffffffff into accumulator" ("ld [0xffffffff]") is quite broken,
isn't it? The whole assumption of ancillary operations is that no-one
intentionally calls things like "ld [0xffffffff]" and expect this
word to be loaded from such a packet offset. Hence, we can also safely
make use of this feature testing patch and facilitate application
development. Therefore, at least from this patch onwards, we have
*for sure* a check whether current or in future implemented BPF_S_ANC*
ops are supported in the kernel. Patch was tested on x86_64.

====================
The following batch contains Netfilter fixes for 3.8-rc1. They are
a mixture of old bugs that have passed unnoticed (I'll pass these to
stable) and more fresh ones from the previous merge window, they are:
* Fix for MAC address in 6in4 tunnels via NFLOG that results in ulogd
showing up wrong address, from Bob Hockney.
* Fix a comment in nf_conntrack_ipv6, from Florent Fourcot.
* Fix a leak an error path in ctnetlink while creating an expectation,
from Jesper Juhl.
* Fix missing ICMP time exceeded in the IPv6 defragmentation code, from
Haibo Xi.
* Fix inconsistent handling of routing changes in MASQUERADE for the
new connections case, from Andrew Collins.
* Fix a missing skb_reset_transport in ip[6]t_REJECT that leads to
crashes in the ixgbe driver (since it seems to access the transport
header with TSO enabled), from Mukund Jampala.
* Recover obsoleted NOTRACK target by including it into the CT and spot
a warning via printk about being obsoleted. Many people don't check the
scheduled to be removal file under Documentation, so we follow some
less agressive approach to kill this in a year or so. Spotted by Florian
Westphal, patch from myself.
* Fix race condition in xt_hashlimit that allows to create two or more
entries, from myself.
* Fix crash if the CT is used due to the recently added facilities to
consult the dying and unconfirmed conntrack lists, from myself.

We should not set con->state to CLOSED here; that happens in
ceph_fault() in the caller, where it first asserts that the state
is not yet CLOSED. Avoids a BUG when the features don't match.
Since the fail_protocol() has become a trivial wrapper, replace
calls to it with direct calls to reset_connection().
