2012-03-13b43: Load firmware from a work queue and not from the probe routineLarry Finger
Recent changes in udev are causing problems for drivers that load firmware from the probe routine. As b43 has such a structure, it must be changed. As this driver loads more than 1 firmware file, changing to the asynchronous routine request_firmware_nowait() would be complicated. In this implementation, the probe routine starts a queue that calls the firmware loading routines. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-03-12mac80211: set basic rates earlierJohannes Berg
The authentication and association handshake already happens in the context of the new BSS, and the basic rates are needed at least for the ACK response frame to the authentication or association response frames. Therefore the basic rates should already be configured into the driver when those frames are sent. Change the logic to set up the basic rates in the connection preparation that happens for authentication and association (if needed).

2012-03-12rt2x00: Fix beacon skew in rt2800pciHelmut Schaa
rt2800pci is suffering from beacon skew in AP mode. Some powersaving clients (like VOIP phones) are getting into trouble after some time when the beacon skew is getting too big. The ralink legacy drivers contain a function that indicates that the beacon timer is off by 1us per tbtt. And this function works around that by reducing the beacon interval for every 64th beacon transmission by 64us (the smallest possible value). Do the same in rt2800pci. This allows proper powersaving when rt2800pci is used in AP mode. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2012-03-12mac80211: Disable MCS > 7 in minstrel_ht when STA uses static SMPSHelmut Schaa

2012-03-12mac80211: set channel back after disassociatingJohannes Berg
As we've discussed, we want to avoid channel changes while associated. While the part when we actually associate needs a bit more work, the bit that happens on disassociating can be changed quite easily. Move the channel type change later in the disassociate process to set the channel only after the driver was told that it's now disassociated. As the driver could expect powersave to be enabled only when associated, this thus results in splitting the config call, but overall what happens makes more sense this way.

2012-03-12mac80211: Limit TID buffering during BA session setup/teardownHelmut Schaa
While setting up or tearing down a BA session mac80211 is buffering pending frames for the according TID. However, there's currently no limit on how many frames are buffered possibly leading to an out-of- memory situation.
