iwlagn: move context init after firmware loading
The availability of contexts depends on the
firmware capabilities. Currently only the
presence of the second context depends on it,
but soon P2P support will also be different.
Move the context initialisation code to the
firmware-dependent setup before registering
with mac80211 to make it easier to handle.

iwlagn: separate firmware version warning
We sometimes need to support new firmware API for
a while before we can publish them since testing
them fully takes a long time. We could keep all
the new code private, but that causes plenty of
problems and sometimes we can give a pre-release
version of firmware to people who need to test.
However, when we just bump the API version, the
driver will warn everybody that their firmware is
outdated, when in fact it isn't. (Currently our
case for this doesn't really change the API but
bumping the API version is necessary because the
firmware isn't fully backward compatible)
In order to handle this in the future, add a new
"api_ok" version; only below this will the driver
warn that the uCode is too old.

ath9k: skip ->config_pci_powersave() if PCIe port has ASPM disabled
We receive many bug reports about system hang during suspend/resume
when ath9k driver is in use. Adrian Chadd remarked that this problem
happens on systems that have ASPM disabled.
To do not hit the bug, skip doing ->config_pci_powersave magic if PCIe
downstream port device, which ath9k device is connected to, has ASPM
disabled.
Bug was introduced by:

I noticed that you took some time back in late 2009 to 'consolidate' the
split format-strings present in the bonding driver at the time and I've
decided I'm fine to leave them the way they are. The main point of my
patch was to change the output and I would like to get that included.
Here is my updated patch...

Many are using sysfs to configure bonding rather than module options, so

bonding: fix string comparison errors
When a bond contains a device where one name is the subset of another
(eth1 and eth10, for example), one cannot properly set the primary
device or the currently active device.
This was reported and based on work by Takuma Umeya. I also verified
the problem and tested that this fix resolves it.
V2: A few did not like the the current code or my changes, so I
refactored bonding_store_primary and bonding_store_active_slave to be a
bit cleaner, dropped the use of strnicmp since we did not really need
the comparison to be case insensitive, and formatted the input string
from sysfs so a comparison to IFNAMSIZ could be used.
I also discovered an error in bonding_store_active_slave that would
modify bond->primary_slave rather than bond->curr_active_slave before
forcing the bonding driver to choose a new active slave.

md/raid10 - avoid reading from known bad blocks - part 3
When attempting to repair a read error, don't read from
devices with a known bad block.
As we are only reading PAGE_SIZE blocks, we don't try to
narrow down to smaller regions in the hope that only part of this
page is bad - it isn't worth the effort.

md/raid10: avoid reading from known bad blocks - part 2
When redirecting a read error to a different device, we must

md/raid10: avoid reading from known bad blocks - part 1
This patch just covers the basic read path:
1/ read_balance needs to check for badblocks, and return not only
the chosen slot, but also how many good blocks are available
there.
2/ read submission must be ready to issue multiple reads to
different devices as different bad blocks on different devices
could mean that a single large read cannot be served by any one
device, but can still be served by the array.
This requires keeping count of the number of outstanding requests
per bio. This count is stored in 'bi_phys_segments'
On read error we currently just fail the request if another target
cannot handle the whole request. Next patch refines that a bit.

md/raid5: avoid reading from known bad blocks.
There are two times that we might read in raid5:
1/ when a read request fits within a chunk on a single
working device.
In this case, if there is any bad block in the range of
the read, we simply fail the cache-bypass read and
perform the read though the stripe cache.
2/ when reading into the stripe cache. In this case we
mark as failed any device which has a bad block in that
strip (1 page wide).
Note that we will both avoid reading and avoid writing.
This is correct (as we will never read from the block, there
is no point writing), but not optimal (as writing could 'fix'
the error) - that will be addressed later.
If we have not seen any write errors on the device yet, we treat a bad
block like a recent read error. This will encourage an attempt to fix
the read error which will either generate a write error, or will
ensure good data is stored there. We don't yet forget the bad block
in that case. That comes later.
Now that we honour bad blocks when reading we can allow devices with
bad blocks into the array.
