struct pci_dev.

   Please, this kind of stuff rots forever and not using bool properly
   drives me crazy.

Joe Perches &lt;joe@perches.com&gt; gave me the spatch script:

	@@
	bool b;
	@@
	-b = 0
	+b = false
	@@
	bool b;
	@@
	-b = 1
	+b = true

I merely installed coccinelle, read the documentation and took credit.

<title>b43: avoid packet losses in the dma worker code.</title>

<id>bad6919469662b7c92bc6353642aaaa777b36bac</id>
<content type='text'>
Following Rafal request, we verified that on "modern" CPUs using one
or more workers is equivalent. Here is patch V3 that addresses the
packet loss bug in the dma engine using only one worker.

-------

This patch addresses a bug in the dma worker code that keeps draining
packets even when the hardware queues are full. In such cases packets
can not be passed down to the device and are erroneusly dropped by the
code.

This problem was already discussed here

http://www.mail-archive.com/b43-dev@lists.infradead.org/msg01413.html

and acknowledged by Michael.

Number of hardware queues is now defined in b43.h (B43_QOS_QUEUE_NUM).

<title>b43: Relax requirement for descriptors to be in the DMA zone</title>

<content type='text'>
When 64-bit DMA was first used, there were problems with the
BCM4311 (14e4:4311). The problem was "fixed" by using the GFP_DMA
flag in the allocation of coherent ring descriptor memory.

The original problem is now believed to have been due to bugs in
the 64-bit DMA implementation in the rest of the kernel, and that
those bugs have been fixed. Accordingly, the requirement for the
descriptors to be in the DMA zone is relaxed.

Bounce buffers are left in the DMA zone.

Some hardware with 64-bit DMA uses lower address word for setting
routing (translation) bit. Add workaround for such boards.
