state machine to scan all four possible sets of channels independently:
2.4GHz active, 2.4GHz passive, 5GHz active and 5GHz passive. The wl1271
firmware doesn't allow these sets to be mixed, so up to several scan commands
have to be issued. This patch also allows scanning more than 24 channels per

a maximum of 24 channels at a time).

actively, not complying with the CRDA values. This is also fixed with this

Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll

a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not
respond with data.
The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this
problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables
power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever
data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time.
This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the
chances of inbound data getting through.

Allow selection of minstrel_ht as default rate control algorithm. At
the moment minstrel_ht can only be requested by the driver code but

ath9k: fix TSF after reset on AR913x
When issuing a reset, the TSF value is lost in the hardware because of
the 913x specific cold reset. As with some AR9280 cards, the TSF needs
to be preserved in software here.
Additionally, there's an issue that frequently prevents a successful
TSF write directly after the chip reset. In this case, repeating the
TSF write after the initval-writes usually works.
This patch detects failed TSF writes and recovers from them, taking
into account the delay caused by the initval writes.

ath9k: fix retry count for A-MPDU rate control status reports
The 'bf_retries' field of the ath_buf structure was used for both
software retries (AMPDU subframes) and hardware retries (legacy
frames). This led to a wrong retry count being reported for the A-MPDU
rate control stats.
This patch changes the code to no longer use bf_retries for reporting
retry counts, but instead always using the real on-chip retry count
from the ath_tx_status.
Additionally, if the first subframe of an A-MPDU was not acked, the tx
status report is submitted along with the first acked subframe, which
may not contain the correct rates in the tx info.
This is easily corrected by saving the tx rate info before looping over
subframes, and then copying it back once the A-MPDU status report is
submitted.
In my tests this change improves throughput visibly.

protection mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.
Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.
For 3945 and 4965, different flags are used for RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self
protection.

iwlwifi: fix multicast
commit
3474ad635db371b0d8d0ee40086f15d223d5b6a4
Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly
broke multicast. The reason, it turns out, is that
the code previously checked if ALLMULTI _changed_,
which the new code no longer did, and normally it
_never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually,
the code prior to my patch there would have been
broken already.
The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask
the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the
new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it
since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending
on the default filter in the device, which isn't
necessarily what we want (since we don't program it
right now).
Fix this by simply not checking allmulti as we have
allmulti behaviour enabled already anyway.

ath9k: Fix bug in paprd
It is possbile that the transmission of paprd test frame
might not get completed in 100ms if tx is stuck. Freeing
this skb upon timeout in ath_paprd_calibrate() will result
in accessing already freed memory when the associated pending
buffer is drained in txq. This patch fixes this issue.

rt2500usb: fallback to SW encryption for TKIP+AES
HW crypto in rt2500usb does not seem to support keys with different ciphers,
which breaks TKIP+AES mode. Fall back to software encryption to fix it.
This should fix long-standing problems with rt2500usb and WPA, such as:

This patch adds transmit power setting type and transmit power level attributes

cfg80211/mac80211: Update set_tx_power to use mBm instead of dBm units
In preparation for a TX power setting interface in the nl80211, change the
.set_tx_power function to use mBm units instead of dBm for greater accuracy and
smaller power levels.
Also, already in advance move the tx_power_setting enumeration to nl80211.
This change affects the .tx_set_power function prototype. As a result, the
corresponding changes are needed to modules using it. These are mac80211,
iwmc3200wifi and rndis_wlan.

at76c50x-usb: Extract bssid from authentication frame
The driver at76c50x-usb is unable to authenticate with an AP since
kernel 2.6.31 for the following reason: The join command of the firmware
needs to be sent with the right bssid before any transmission can start.
Before kernel 2.6.31 mac80211 informed its drivers about the changing
bssid early enough for at76c50x-usb but during the development of 2.6.31
mac80211's behaviour changed. Now a new bssid is set after the
association.
This patch changes the tx routine of the driver at76c50x-usb in such a
way that a new bssid is extracted from an authentication frame and the
join command with that bssid is processed.
