This is a backport of upstream commit 013978b6 ("b43: Changes to enable
BCM4311 rev 02 with wireless core revision 13") and the changes include
the following:
(1) Add the 802.11 rev 13 device to the ssb_device_id table to load b43.
(2) Add PHY revision 9 to the supported list.
(3) Change the 2-bit routing code for address extensions to 0b10 rather
than the 0b01 used for the 32-bit case.
(4) Remove some magic numbers in the DMA setup.
The DMA implementation for this chip supports full 64-bit addressing with
one exception. Whenever the Descriptor Ring Buffer is in high memory, a
fatal DMA error occurs. This problem was not present in 2.6.24-rc2 due
to code to "Bias the placement of kernel pages at lower PFNs". When
commit 44048d70 reverted that code, the DMA error appeared. As a "fix",
use the GFP_DMA flag when allocating the buffer for 64-bit DMA. At present,
this problem is thought to arise from a hardware error.

(not in mainline, as it is not applicable.)
We must reject new incompatible firmware early to avoid
running into strange transmission failures.
The current development tree supports newer firmware revisions.
These revisions cause strange failures on the stable 2.6.24 kernel.
Add a check to avoid confusing users a lot.

patch 8dd0100ce9511e52614ecd0a6587c13ce5769c8b in mainline.
This fixes four resource leakages.
In any error path we must deallocate the DMA frame slots we
previously allocated by request_slot().
This is done by storing the ring pointers before doing any ring
allocation and restoring the old pointers in case of an error.
This patch by Michael Buesch has been ported to b43legacy.

patch 9eca9a8e81928685b4de00ecef83a7c13c340fc9 in mainline.
We must drop any packets we are not able to encrypt.
We must not send them unencrypted or with an all-zero-key (which
basically is the same as unencrypted, from a security point of view).
This might only trigger shortly after resume before mac80211 reassociated
and reconfigured the keys.
It is safe to drop these packets, as the association they belong to
is not guaranteed anymore anyway.
This is a security fix in the sense that it prevents information leakage.

patch ada50731c0346bf900dc387edd3a6961297bf2d3 in mainline.
This patch makes suspend/resume work with the b43legacy driver.
We must not overwrite the MAC addresses in the init function, as this
would also overwrite the MAC on resume. With an all-zero MAC the device
firmware is not able to ACK any received packets anymore.
Fix this by moving the initializion stuff that must be done on init but
not on resume to the start function.
Also zero out filter_flags to make sure we don't have some flags
from a previous instance for a tiny timeframe until mac80211 reconfigures
them.

As Johannes Berg indicated, the NET_IP_ALIGN doesn't
need to be used for ieee80211 frames. This means we
can simplify the alignment calculation to just
use the result of the header size modulus 4 as frame
alignment.
Furthermore we shouldn't use NET_IP_ALIGN in rt2x00usb
because it could be 0 on some architectures and we absolutely
need to have 2 bytes reserved for possible aligning.

Sometimes it happens in the tx path that an entry given to the hardware isn't
reported in the txdone handler. This ultimately led to the dreaded "non-free
entry in the non-full queue" message and the stopping of the tx queue. Work
around this issue by allowing the driver to also clear out previos entries in
the txdone handler.

This fixes Bug #9414
Since addition of the rfkill callback, the LED associated with the off
switch on the radio has not worked for several reasons:
(1) Essential data in the rfkill structure were missing.
(2) The rfkill structure was initialized after the LED initialization.
(3) There was a minor memory leak if the radio LED structure was inited.
Once the above problems were fixed, additional difficulties were noted:
(4) The radio LED was in the wrong state at startup.
(5) The radio switch had to be manipulated twice for each state change.
(6) A circular mutex locking situation existed.
(7) If rfkill-input is built as a module, it is not automatically loaded.
This patch fixes all of the above.

The validation of the chipset revision was broken
since for rt2500usb and rt73usb different registers
should be read. When rt2500usb was loaded for a rt73
device it would false think the chipset was correct
because the wrong register was read and validated.
This has been fixed by expanding the check to also
see if the first 4 bits of the revision is not-0
(When reading the wrong register offset the returned
value is usually 0 which can be interpreted as invalid)

Prior to this patch, iwlwifi would always use the first
registered rate control algorithm which, depending on system
setup, could be anything. After the mac80211 patch to make
the simple algorithm built-in, it would always be simple.
This has always been a bug in iwlwifi.
This fixes it by requesting that mac80211 selects the right
rate control algorithm.
