Since the PF gathers statistics for the VF, when the VF is about to unload
we must synchronize the release of its statistics buffer with the PF, so that
no DMA operation will be made to that address after the buffer release.

If driver will fail to allocate all queues, it will shrink the number of
queues and move the storage queue to its correct place (i.e., the last
queue among the newly supported number).
When changing the pointers of the new location of the FCoE queue, we need
to pay special attention to the aggregations pointer - that memory is allocated
during probe and released upon driver removal. Current implementation has 2
pointers pointing to the same chunk of allocated memory, meaning upon removal
there will be two kfree() of the same chunk while the other won't be released.

John W. Linville says:
====================
This is one more set of fixes intended for the 3.11 stream...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"I have three more patches for the 3.11 stream: Felix's fix for the
fairly visible brcmsmac crash, a fix from Simon for an IBSS join bug I
found and a fix for a channel context bug in IBSS I'd introduced."
Along with those...
Sujith Manoharan makes a minor change to not use a PLL hang workaroun
for AR9550. This one-liner fixes a couple of bugs reported in the Red Hat
bugzilla.
Helmut Schaa addresses an ath9k_htc bug that mangles frame headers
during Tx. This fix is small, tested by the bug reported and isolated
to ath9k_htc.
Stanislaw Gruszka reverts a recent iwl4965 change that broke rfkill
notification to user space.
Please let me know if there are problems!

error detection
Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for
BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case.
The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as
complete() function was called (or will be called) because
nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of
times set to sb_nbio:
do {
wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event);
} while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);
Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
same number of times for the same sb_bio_event. Otherwise,
wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g. olpc-battery) assume
that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during
probe. Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other
drivers try to use it. This was the case until it was recently moved
out of arch/x86 and restructured around commits ac2504151f5a ("Platform:
OLPC: turn EC driver into a platform_driver") and 85f90cf6ca56 ("x86:
OLPC: switch over to using new EC driver on x86").
Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the
previous behaviour.
Fixes a regression introduced in Linux-3.6 where various drivers such as
olpc-battery and olpc-xo1-sci failed to load due to an inability to
communicate with the EC. The user-visible effect was a lack of battery
monitoring, missing ebook/lid switch input devices, etc.

ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during
TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX
status handling the header is not moved back into its original position.
This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc
again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an
skb_under_panic oops.
Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position
before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00
or ath5k do.

This reverts commit df54d6fa54275ce59660453e29d1228c2b45a826.
The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.
In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774
So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

This fixes a regression exposed during the merge window by commit
9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS regulator GPIO polarity in DT"; namely that
USB VBUS doesn't get turned on, so USB devices are not detected. This
affects the internal USB port on TrimSlice (i.e. the USB->SATA bridge, to
which the SSD is connected) and the external port(s) on Seaboard/
Springbank and Whistler.
The Tegra DT as written in v3.11 allows two paths to enable USB VBUS:
1) Via the legacy DT binding for the USB controller; it can directly
acquire a VBUS GPIO and activate it.
2) Via a regulator for VBUS, which is referenced by the new DT binding
for the USB controller.
Those two methods both use the same GPIO, and hence whichever of the
USB controller and regulator gets probed first ends up owning the GPIO.
In practice, the USB driver only supports path (1) above, since the
patches to support the new USB binding are not present until v3.12:-(
In practice, the regulator ends up being probed first and owning the
GPIO. Since nothing enables the regulator (the USB driver code is not
yet present), the regulator ends up being turned off. This originally
caused no problem, because the polarity in the regulator definition was
incorrect, so attempting to turn off the regulator actually turned it
on, and everything worked:-(
However, when testing the new USB driver code in v3.12, I noticed the
incorrect polarity and fixed it in commit 9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS
regulator GPIO polarity in DT". In the context of v3.11, this patch then
caused the USB VBUS to actually turn off, which broke USB ports with VBUS
control. I got this patch included in v3.11-rc1 since it fixed a bug in
device tree (incorrect polarity specification), and hence was suitable to
be included early in the rc series. I evidently did not test the patch at
all, or correctly, in the context of v3.11, and hence did not notice the
issue that I have explained above:-(
Fix this by making the USB VBUS regulators always enabled. This way, if
the regulator owns the GPIO, it will always be turned on, even if there
is no USB driver code to request the regulator be turned on. Even
ignoring this bug, this is a reasonable way to configure the HW anyway.
If this patch is applied to v3.11, it will cause a couple pretty trivial
conflicts in tegra20-{trimslice,seaboard}.dts when creating v3.12, since
the context right above the added lines changed in patches destined for
v3.12.

Already existing property flags are filled wrong for properties created from
initial FDT. This could cause problems if this DYNAMIC device-tree functions
are used later, i.e. properties are attached/detached/replaced. Simply dumping
flags from the running system show, that some initial static (not allocated via
kzmalloc()) nodes are marked as dynamic.
I putted some debug extensions to property_proc_show(..) :
..
+ if (OF_IS_DYNAMIC(pp))
+ pr_err("DEBUG: xxx : OF_IS_DYNAMIC\n");
+ if (OF_IS_DETACHED(pp))
+ pr_err("DEBUG: xxx : OF_IS_DETACHED\n");
when you operate on the nodes (e.g.: ~$ cat /proc/device-tree/*some_node*) you
will see that those flags are filled wrong, basically in most cases it will dump
a DYNAMIC or DETACHED status, which is in not true.
(BTW. this OF_IS_DETACHED is a own define for debug purposes which which just
make a test_bit(OF_DETACHED, &x->_flags)
If nodes are dynamic kernel is allowed to kfree() them. But it will crash
attempting to do so on the nodes from FDT -- they are not allocated via
kzmalloc().

Pull MIPS fix from Ralf Baechle:
"Just a single patch which fixes a special case in the MIPS FPU
emulator which is always required, even on CPUs with FPU. There is
the rare special case that an FPU (or certain other instructions) in a
branch delay slot is causing an exception and then the branch
instruction will need to be emulated by the kernel before resuming
execution. This is working great except if the branch instruction is
an Octeon BBIT instruction.
The boring disclaimer - all MIPS defconfigs build tested and no
regressions and runtime tested on Octeon, no known issues"

my earlier patch "mac80211: change IBSS channel state to chandef"
created a regression by ignoring the channel parameter in
__ieee80211_sta_join_ibss, which breaks IBSS channel selection. This
patch fixes this situation by using the right channel and adopting the
selected bandwidth mode.

commit 385904f819e3 ('sfc: Don't use
efx_filter_{build,hash,increment}() for default MAC filters') used the
wrong name to find the index of default RX MAC filters at insertion/
update time. This could result in memory corruption and would in any
case silently fail to update the filter.

brcm80211 cannot handle sending frames with CCK rates as part of an
A-MPDU session. Other drivers may have issues too. Set the flag in all
drivers that have been tested with CCK rates.
This fixes a reported brcmsmac regression introduced in
commit ef47a5e4f1aaf1d0e2e6875e34b2c9595897bef6
"mac80211/minstrel_ht: fix cck rate sampling"

The VLAN code needs to know the length of the per-port VLAN bitmap to
perform its most basic operations (retrieving VLAN informations, removing
VLANs, forwarding database manipulation, etc). Unfortunately, in the
current implementation we are using a macro that indicates the bitmap
size in longs in places where the size in bits is expected, which in
some cases can cause what appear to be random failures.
Use the correct macro.

John W. Linville says:
====================
Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:
"We revert an rfkill bugfix that unfortunately caused more bugs, shuffle
some code to avoid touching the PCIe device before it's enabled and
disconnect if firmware fails to do our bidding. I also have Stanislaw's
fix to not crash in some channel switch scenarios."
As for the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"This time, I have one fix from Dan Carpenter for users of
nl80211hdr_put(), and one fix from myself fixing a regression with the
libertas driver."
Along with the above...
Dan Carpenter fixes some incorrectly placed "address of" operators
in hostap that caused copying of junk data.
Jussi Kivilinna corrects zd1201 to use an allocated buffer rather
than the stack for a URB operation.
