commit 73b26df5fa1a6245d6fc982362518b620bc7c2fe upstream.

This reverts commit a240dc7b3c7463bd60cf0a9b2a90f52f78aae0fd.

This commit is reducing tx power by at least 10 db on some devices,
e.g. the Buffalo WZR-HP-G450H.

commit 8f7b8db6e0557c8437adf9371e020cd89a7e85dc upstream.

The channel switch command for 6000 series devices
is larger than the maximum inline command size of
320 bytes. The command is therefore refused with a
warning. Fix this by allocating the command and
using the NOCOPY mechanism.

commit bf11315eeda510ea4fc1a2bf972d8155d31d89b4 upstream.

The driver does not count space of radiotap fields when allocating skb for
radiotap packet. This leads to kernel panic with the following call trace:

commit 046b6802c8d3c8a57448485513bf7291633e0fa3 upstream.

Currently, ASPM is disabled for all WLAN+BT combo chipsets
when BTCOEX is enabled. This is incorrect since the workaround
is required only for WB195, which is a AR9285+AR3011 combo
solution. Fix this by checking for the HW version when enabling
the workaround.

commit 022e1d0680c7b4366017393417b8758be5abcee8 upstream.

There are a number of problems that occur for the latest version
of the Realtek RTL8188CE device with the in-kernel driver. These
include selection of the wrong firmware, and system lockup. A full
fix is known, but is too invasive for inclusion in stable. This patch
fixes the problem with loading the wrong firmware, and logs a message
that the device may not work for kernels 3.6 and older.

commit efd5d6b03bd9c9e0df646c56fb5f4f3e25e5c1ac upstream.

On our system (ARM Cortex-M3 SOC running linux-2.6.33)
frequent crashes were observed in the rt2800usb module
because of the invalid length of the received packet (3392,
46920...). This patch adds the sanity check on the packet
legth. Also, changed WARNING to ERROR in rt2x00lib_rxdone()
so that the bad packet condition would be noticed.

The fix was tested on the latest compat-wireless-3.5.1-1-snpc.

commit a396e10019eaf3809b0219c966865aaafec12630 upstream.

We need to program the rfkill switch GPIO pin direction to input at
device initialization time, not only when the interface is brought up.
Doing this only when the interface is brought up could lead to rfkill
detecting the switch is turned on erroneously and inability to create
the interface and bringing it up.
