drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations

rt2x00: Cleanup rt2x00usb_watchdog_reset_tx
rt2x00usb_watchdog_reset_tx performs the same task
as rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue, with the only difference
is that it waits for all entries to be returned to
the driver and for all frames the status has been
reported to mac80211.
We can easily split this task by calling rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue,
sleep for a short period and invoke the TX status reporting
function. By adding the sleep() to the kill_entry we make sure
that even during shutdown we guarentee the entry has been killed when
the function returns. To make this work correctly the interrupt
handlers have to be updated to prevent checking for the RADIO_ENABLED
flag too early which prevents the ownership of the entry to be reset.
Additionally a check for the DEVICE_PRESENT flag is not required but
is nice to prevent race conditions when the device was unplugged.
Additionally rather then calling rt2x00usb_work_txdone() for
status reporting we let the driver perform the TX status reporting
first. If this is not sufficient then rt2x00usb_work_txdone() will
still be used to cleanup the mess.

rt2x00: Split watchdog check into a DMA and STATUS timeout
The watchdog for rt2800usb triggers frequently causing all URB's
to be canceled often enough to interrupt the normal TX flow.
More research indicated that not the URB upload to the USB host
were hanging, but instead the TX status reports.
To correctly detect what is going on, we introduce Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE
which is an index counter between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX and indicates
if the frame has been transfered to the device.
This also requires the rt2x00queue timeout functions to be updated
to differentiate between a DMA timeout (time between Q_INDEX and
Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE timeout) and a STATUS timeout (time between
Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE and Q_INDEX_DONE timeout)

rt2x00: Correctly kill beacon queue
USB devices upload their beacon and then automatically send
it out every beacon interval. However when killing a TX queue
we only kill the URB and not the actual transmission of the beacon.
This will reset the Beacon register to prevent any beacons from
being transmitted.

This updates the use of larger initial windows, as originally specified in

The changes made in RFC 5681 are:
a) the setting now is more clearly specified in units of segments (as the
comments by John Heffner emphasized, this was not very clear in RFC 3390);
b) for connections with 1095 < SMSS <= 2190 there is now a change:
- RFC 3390 says that IW <= 4380,
- RFC 5681 says that IW = 3 * SMSS <= 6570.
Since RFC 3390 is older and "only" proposed standard, whereas the newer RFC 5681
is already draft standard, it seems preferable to use the newer IW variant.

tcp: Add TCP_USER_TIMEOUT socket option.
This patch provides a "user timeout" support as described in RFC793. The
socket option is also needed for the the local half of RFC5482 "TCP User
Timeout Option".
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is a TCP level socket option that takes an unsigned int,
when > 0, to specify the maximum amount of time in ms that transmitted
data may remain unacknowledged before TCP will forcefully close the
corresponding connection and return ETIMEDOUT to the application. If
0 is given, TCP will continue to use the system default.
Increasing the user timeouts allows a TCP connection to survive extended
periods without end-to-end connectivity. Decreasing the user timeouts
allows applications to "fail fast" if so desired. Otherwise it may take
upto 20 minutes with the current system defaults in a normal WAN
environment.
The socket option can be made during any state of a TCP connection, but
is only effective during the synchronized states of a connection
(ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, or LAST-ACK).
Moreover, when used with the TCP keepalive (SO_KEEPALIVE) option,
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT will overtake keepalive to determine when to close a
connection due to keepalive failure.
The option does not change in anyway when TCP retransmits a packet, nor
when a keepalive probe will be sent.
This option, like many others, will be inherited by an acceptor from its
listener.

mac80211: fix offchannel queue stop
Somebody noticed this problem, and I outlined
to them how to fix it, but haven't heard back
from them. So while I was adding the state
field I figured I could use it to fix it.
The problem, as I understand it, is that when
we go offchannel while the driver has a queue
stopped, the driver will likely start draining
the queue and then enable it while offchannel.
This in turn will enable the interface queue,
and that leads to transmitting data frames on
the wrong channel.
Fix this by keeping track of offchannel status
per interface, and not enabling the interface
queues on interfaces that are offchannel when
the driver enables a queue.

mac80211: clean up ifdown/cleanup paths
There's a lot of redundant code in mac80211's
interface cleanup/down, for example freeing
AP beacons is done both when the interface is
set DOWN as well as when it is torn down, of
which only the former has any effect.
Also, a bunch of things should be closer to
where they matter, like the MLME timers that
we should cancel when disassociating, rather
than only when the interface is set DOWN.
Clean up all this code.

mac80211: allow changing port control protocol
Some vendor specified mechanisms for 802.1X-style
functionality use a different protocol than EAP
(even if EAP is vendor-extensible). Support this

cfg80211: allow vendor specific cipher suites
cfg80211 currently rejects all cipher suites it

purposes. This can lead to inconsistencies when
a driver advertises an algorithm that cfg80211
doesn't know about. Remove this rejection so
drivers can specify any algorithm they like.

wl12xx: remove unneeded locking
With the scan callback now being callable from
any context, these unlocks/locks can go away.
This makes the code easier to understand, since
callers of these functions must no longer be
aware that the mutex may be dropped.
As Stanislaw is working on iwlwifi scanning, I
didn't change it to take advantage of the new
mac80211 semantics.

mac80211: allow scan to complete from any context
The ieee80211_scan_completed() function was a frequent
source of potential deadlocks, since it is called by
drivers but may call back into drivers, so drivers had
to make sure to call it without any locks held, which
frequently lead to more complex code in drivers. Avoid
that problem by allowing the function to be called in
any context, and queueing the actual work it does.
Also update the documentation for it to indicate this.
