net: implement a SO_DOMAIN getsockoption
This sockopt goes in line with SO_TYPE and SO_PROTOCOL. It makes it
possible for userspace programs to pass around file descriptors — I
am referring to arguments-to-functions, but it may even work for the
fd passing over UNIX sockets — without needing to also pass the
auxiliary information (PF_INET6/IPPROTO_TCP).

net: implement a SO_PROTOCOL getsockoption
Similar to SO_TYPE returning the socket type, SO_PROTOCOL allows to
retrieve the protocol used with a given socket.
I am not quite sure why we have that-many copies of socket.h, and why
the values are not the same on all arches either, but for where hex
numbers dominate, I use 0x1029 for SO_PROTOCOL as that seems to be
the next free unused number across a bunch of operating systems, or
so Google results make me want to believe. SO_PROTOCOL for others
just uses the next free Linux number, 38.

xfrm: select sane defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh
Choose saner defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh values on init
Currently, the xfrm[4|6] code has hard-coded initial gc_thresh values
(set to 1024). Given that the ipv4 and ipv6 routing caches are sized
dynamically at boot time, the static selections can be non-sensical.
This patch dynamically selects an appropriate gc threshold based on
the corresponding main routing table size, using the assumption that
we should in the worst case be able to handle as many connections as
the routing table can.
For ipv4, the maximum route cache size is 16 * the number of hash
buckets in the route cache. Given that xfrm4 starts garbage
collection at the gc_thresh and prevents new allocations at 2 *
gc_thresh, we set gc_thresh to half the maximum route cache size.
For ipv6, its a bit trickier. there is no maximum route cache size,
but the ipv6 dst_ops gc_thresh is statically set to 1024. It seems
sane to select a simmilar gc_thresh for the xfrm6 code that is half
the number of hash buckets in the v6 route cache times 16 (like the v4
code does).

Jan reported that his b43-based laptop hangs during suspend.
The problem turned out to be mac80211 asking the driver to
stop the hardware before removing interfaces, and interface
removal caused b43 to touch the hardware (while down, which
causes the hang).
This patch fixes mac80211 to do reorder these operations to
have them in the correct order -- first remove interfaces
and then stop the hardware. Some more code is necessary to
be able to do so in a race-free manner, in particular it is
necessary to not process frames received during quiescing.

1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver

2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a
structure by embedding the latter in the former, which
is also rather confusing because it leads to weird
unions and similarly odd constructs
3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands,
even if only 32 end up being used

1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of
command metadata and device command separately, in
two arrays in each tx queue

iwlwifi: revert to active table when rate is not valid
When performing rate scaling, if detected that the new rate
index is invalid, clear the search_better_tbl flag
so it will not be stuck in the loop.
Since the search table is already set up in uCode,
we need to empty out the the search table;
revert back to the "active" rate and throughput info.
Also pass the "active" table setup to uCode to make
sure the rate scale is functioning correctly.

mac80211: fix oops due to missing private data
This was caused by patch:
"mac80211: cooperate more with network namespaces"
The version of the patch applied doesn't match Johannes' latest:
http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/patches/kernel/all/LATEST/NNN-mac80211-netns.patch
The skb->cb virtual interface data wasn't being reset for
reuse so ath9k pooped out when trying to dereference the
private rate control info from the skb.
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference

mac80211: fix PS-poll response, race
When a station queries us for a PS-poll response, we wrongly
queue the frame on the virtual interface's queue rather than
the pending queue.
Additionally, fix a race condition where we could potentially
send multiple frames to the sleeping station due to using a
station flag rather than a packet flag. When converting to a
packet flag, we can also convert p54 and remove the filter
clearing we added for it.
(Also remove a now dead function)

mac80211: fix MLME issuing of probe requests while scanning
We were issuing probe requests to the associated AP on the wrong
band by having our beacon timer loss trigger while we are scanning.
When we would scan the timer could hit and force us to send a
probe request to the AP but with a chance we'd be on the wrong band.
This leads to finding no usable bitrate but we should not get so
far on the xmit path. We should not be trying to send these probe
request frames so prevent ieee80211_mgd_probe_ap() from sending
these.
As it turns out all callers of ieee80211_mgd_probe_ap() need this
check so we just move the scan check there. This means we can remove
the recenlty added check during ieee80211_sta_monitor_work().
Additionally we now fix a race condition added by the patch
"mac80211: do not monitor the connection while scanning" which
had the same check in ieee80211_sta_conn_mon_timer(). The race
happens because the timer routine *does* a valid check for
scanning but after it queues work into the mac80211 workqueue
the work callback can kick off with scanning enabled and cause
the same issue we were trying to avoid.
The more appropriate solution would be to disable the respective
timers during scan and re-enable them after scan but requires more
complex code and testing.

mac80211: fix mlme timeouts
When a new MLME work is created, its timeout is initialised
to 0. This is wrong, it could then be thought of as having
an actual timeout in the future (time_is_after_jiffies() can
return true). Instead, it should be initialised to jiffies
so that it will run right away as soon as the mlme work is
executed.

mac80211: implement basic background scanning
Introduce a new scan flag "SCAN_OFF_CHANNEL" which basically tells us
that we are currently on a different channel for scanning and cannot
RX/TX. "SCAN_SW_SCANNING" tells us that we are currently running a
software scan but we might as well be on the operating channel to RX/TX.
While "SCAN_SW_SCANNING" is set during the whole scan "SCAN_OFF_CHANNEL"
is set when leaving the operating channel and unset when coming back.
Introduce two new scan states "SCAN_LEAVE_OPER_CHANNEL" and
"SCAN_ENTER_OPER_CHANNEL" which basically implement the functionality we
need to leave the operating channel (send a nullfunc to the AP and stop
the queues) and enter it again (send a nullfunc to the AP and start the
queues again).
Enhance the scan state "SCAN_DECISION" to switch back to the operating
channel after each scanned channel. In the future it sould be simple
to enhance the decision state to scan as much channels in a row as the
qos latency allows us.
