<id>bd6b0242652a8a284eed2adec5ac1fc043b8f2ef</id>
<content type='text'>
Likely wl3501_reset should acquire spinlock as wl3501_{open, close}.
One of calls of wl3501_reset has been already protected.
The others were unprotected and might lead to a race condition.
The patch adds spinlock into the wl3501_reset and removes it from
wl3501_tx_timeout.

<title>wl3501_cs: avoid bogus gcc-6 warning</title>

gcc-6 on x86 started warning about wl3501_get_encode when building
with -O2:

drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c: In function ‘wl3501_get_encode’:
drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1769:5: warning: ‘implemented’ may be used uninitialized in this function
drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1686:19: warning: ‘threshold’ may be used uninitialized in this function
drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1702:20: warning: ‘threshold’ may be used uninitialized in this function

drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1383:24: warning: ‘value’ may be used uninitialized in this function

I could not figure out what exactly confuses gcc here, but splitting the
wl3501_get_mib_value function into two helps the compiler to figure out
that the variables are not actually used uninitialized, and makes it
slightly clearer to a human reader what the function actually does and
which parts of it are under the spinlock.

<title>cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band</title>

<content type='text'>
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of
it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of
bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one.

Replace ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan} with more
generic ieee80211_{channel_to_frequency, frequency_to_channel}.

Include &lt;net/cfg80211.h&gt; for the defination of IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ.
Because &lt;net/cfg80211.h&gt; includes &lt;linux/ieee80211.h&gt;, so we can
replace &lt;linux/ieee80211.h&gt; with &lt;net/cfg80211.h&gt;.

This change is a preparation for the removal of function
ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan}.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.
