It appears we constantly flip peers refcnt between 0 and 1 values, and

spinlock.

Remove this list completely and perform a garbage collection on-the-fly,
at lookup time, using the expired nodes we met during the tree
traversal.

This removes a lot of code, makes locking more standard, and obsoletes
two sysctls (inet_peer_gc_mintime and inet_peer_gc_maxtime). This also
removes two pointers in inet_peer structure.

There is still a false sharing effect because refcnt is in first cache

mac80211: Stop BA session event from device

Some devices support BT/WLAN co-existence algorigthms.
In order not to harm the system performance and user experience, the device
requests not to allow any RX BA session and tear down existing RX BA sessions
based on system constraints such as periodic BT activity that needs to limit
WLAN activity (eg.SCO or A2DP).
In such cases, the intention is to limit the duration of the RX PPDU and
therefore prevent the peer device to use A-MPDU aggregation.

Adding ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session() callback
that can be used by the driver to stop existing BA sessions.

5MB/s to 8MB/s. Similar percentage boost can be observed on 2.4 GHz.

These are test results of 5x downloading of approximately 700MB iso

Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"

This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c.

It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.

It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").

It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.

And it didn't actually work at all.  BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
  "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
   server for me, possibly related to PTYs.  For example, cat'ing a
   large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
   loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
   data in the quoted bits further down).

   ...

   Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
   flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
   the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
   forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
   process that could have emptied the PTY."

which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.

Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

libertas_sdio: handle spurious interrupts

Commit 06e8935febe687e2a561707d4c7ca4245d261dbe adds an IRQ handling
optimization for single-function SDIO cards like this one, but at the
same time exposes a small hardware bug.

During hardware init, an interrupt is generated with (apparently) no
source. Previously, mmc threw this interrupt away, but now (due to the
optimization), the mmc layer passes this onto libertas, before it is ready
(and before it has enabled interrupts), causing a crash.

Work around this hardware bug by registering the IRQ handler later and
making it capable of handling interrupts with no cause. The change that
makes the IRQ handler registration happen later actually eliminates
the spurious interrupt as well.

    iwlwifi: support channel switch offload in driver

To fix remove mutex from iwl_chswitch_done() and use atomic bitops for
marking channel switch pending.

Also remove iwl2030_hw_channel_switch() since 2000 series adapters are
2.4GHz only devices.
