  and 8bbb181308bc348e02bfdbebdedd4e4ec9d452ce ]

The tun module leaks up to 36 bytes of memory by not fully initializing
a structure located on the stack that gets copied to user memory by the
TUNGETIFF and SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl()s.

[ Upstream commit e4c7f259c5be99dcfc3d98f913590663b0305bf8 ]

The problem is that we call this with a spin lock held.  The call tree
is:
	kaweth_start_xmit() holds kaweth-&gt;device_lock.
	-&gt; kaweth_async_set_rx_mode()
	   -&gt; kaweth_control()
	      -&gt; kaweth_internal_control_msg()

The kaweth_internal_control_msg() function is only called from
kaweth_control() which used GFP_ATOMIC for its allocations.

This reverts commit 036dafa28da1e2565a8529de2ae663c37b7a0060.

First it appears in bisection, then reverting it solves the usual
netdev watchdog problem for different people. I don't have a proper
fix yet so get rid of it.

The Apple Thunderbolt ethernet device is already listed in the driver,
but not hooked up in the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE().  This fixes that and
allows it to work properly.

commit fe020120cb863ba918c6d603345342a880272c4d upstream.

mwifiex driver supports 2x2 chips as well. Hence valid mcs values
are 0 to 15. The check for mcs index is corrected in this patch.

For example: if 40MHz is enabled and mcs index is 11, "iw link"
command would show "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s" without this patch.
Now it shows "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s MCS 11 40Mhz" with the patch.

commit f1b00f4dab29b57bdf1bc03ef12020b280fd2a72 upstream.

Commit d83579e2a50ac68389e6b4c58b845c702cf37516 incorporated some
changes from the vendor driver that made it newly important that the
calculated hardware version correctly include the CHIP_92D bit, as all
of the IS_92D_* macros were changed to depend on it.  However, this bit
was being unset for dual-mac, dual-phy devices.  The vendor driver
behavior was modified to not do this, but unfortunately this change was
not picked up along with the others.  This caused scanning in the 2.4GHz
band to be broken, and possibly other bugs as well.

This patch brings the version calculation logic in parity with the
vendor driver in this regard, and in doing so fixes the regression.
However, the version calculation code in general continues to be largely
incoherent and messy, and needs to be cleaned up.

commit 3ce4d85b76010525adedcc2555fa164bf706a2f3 upstream.

In commit a7959c1, the USB part of rtlwifi was switched to convert
_usb_read_sync() to using a preallocated buffer rather than one
that has been acquired using kmalloc. Although this routine is named
as though it were synchronous, there seem to be simultaneous users,
and the selection of the index to the data buffer is not multi-user
safe. This situation is addressed by adding a new spinlock. The routine
cannot sleep, thus a mutex is not allowed.
