b43: avoid PPC fault during resume
The routine b43_is_hw_radio_enabled() has long been a problem.
For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register
B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43_status()
returns a value of 2 (B43_STAT_STARTED) (BUG 14181). Fixing that
results in Bug 14538 in which the driver is unable to reassociate
after resuming from hibernation because b43_status() returns 0.
The correct fix would be to determine why the status is 0; however,
I have not yet found why that happens. The correct value is found for
my device, which has PHY revision >= 3.
Returning TRUE when the PHY revision < 3 and b43_status() returns 0 fixes
the regression for 2.6.32.
This patch fixes the problem in Red Hat Bugzilla #538523.

ath9k: Fix maximum tx fifo settings for single stream devices
Atheros single stream AR9285 and AR9271 have half the PCU TX FIFO
buffer size of that of dual stream devices. Dual stream devices
have a max PCU TX FIFO size of 8 KB while single stream devices
have 4 KB. Single stream devices have an issue though and require
hardware only to use half of the amount of its capable PCU TX FIFO
size, 2 KB and this requires a change in software.
Technically a change would not have been required (except for frame
burst considerations of 128 bytes) if these devices would have been
able to use the full 4 KB of the PCU TX FIFO size but our systems
engineers recommend 2 KB to be used only. We enforce this through
software by reducing the max frame triggger level to 2 KB.
Fixing the max frame trigger level should then have a few benefits:
* The PER will now be adjusted as designed for underruns when the
max trigger level is reached. This should help alleviate the
bus as the rate control algorithm chooses a slower rate which
should ensure frames are transmitted properly under high system
bus load.
* The poll we use on our TX queues should now trigger and work
as designed for single stream devices. The hardware passes
data from each TX queue on the PCU TX FIFO queue respecting each
queue's priority. The new trigger level ensures this seeding of
the PCU TX FIFO queue occurs as designed which could mean avoiding
false resets and actually reseting hw correctly when a TX queue
is indeed stuck.
* Some undocumented / unsupported behaviour could have been triggered
when the max trigger level level was being set to 4 KB on single
stream devices. Its not clear what this issue was to me yet.

We thus have to keep track of the last sequence number that is scheduled

iwlagn: Use iwl_write8() for CSR_INT_COALESCING register
CSR_INT_COALESCING previously had only one, but now has two single-byte fields.
With only one single-byte field (lowest order byte) it was okay to write via
iwl_write32(), but now with two, an iwl_write32() to the lower order field
clobbers the other field (odd-address CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG, offset 0x5), and an
iwl_write32() to CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG could clobber the lowest byte of the
next-higher register (CSR_INT, offset 0x8).
Fortunately, no bad side effects have been produced by the iwl_write32()
usage, due to order of execution (low order byte was always written before
higher order byte), and the fact that writing "0" to the low byte of the
next higher register has no effect (only action is when writing "1"s).
Nonetheless, this cleans up the accesses so no bad side effects might occur
in the future, if execution order changes, or more bit fields get added to
CSR_INT_COALESCING.

ath9k: This patch fix RX unpadding for any received frame.
It has been tested with a 802.11 frame generator and by checking the FCS field
of each received frame with the value reported by the Atheros hardware. This
patch is useful if you are trying to analyze non standard 802.11 frame going
over the air.

ssb: Unconditionally log results of core scans
At present, the results of an SSB core scan are only logged when
CONFIG_SSB_DEBUG is "y". As this may not be set in a distro kernel,
it is difficult interpret many problems posted in bug reports or in
help forums.

ipw2200: Set core hw rfkill status when hardware changes state
ipw2200 is able to detect when it's been hard-killed, but doesn't update
the core rfkill state or update userspace. Ensure that the state is updated,
allowing the rfkill core to notify userspace.

ipw2100: Register the wiphy device
libipw unconditionally calls wiphy_unregister, but it's up to the driver
to register it in the first place. ipw2100 fails to do so. Add the necessary
glue code, and also ensure that rfkill statuses get set up appropriately.
(Augmented for proper wiphy_unregister placement. -- JWL)

libipw: initiate cfg80211 API conversion (v2)
Initiate the conversion of libipw to the new cfg80211 configuration API.
For now, leave CONFIG_IPW2200_PROMISCUOUS stuff alone. Eventually
migrate it to cfg80211 when the add/del/change_virtual_intf methods
are implemented.
(v2: Fix unconditional wiphy_unregister in libipw which was causing
problems for ipw2100, somewhat based on prior attempted fix
by Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com>. Previously both original version of
this patch and Zhu Yi's fix attempt were reverted due to
discovery of regressions. -- JWL)

ixgbe: Only set/clear VFE in ixgbe_set_rx_mode
There appears to be a stray setting of the VFE bit when registering vlans.
This should not be done as vlan filtering should be enabled any time the
interface is not in promiscous mode
