iwlwifi: remove unneeded locks from apm_stop() and stop_master()
Since priv->reg_lock was added to keep multi-access register manipulation
atomic, priv->lock protection is no longer needed. Remove this from
iwl_apm_stop_master() and iwl_apm_stop().
Add warning of timeout when polling for busmaster disablement confirmation,

NOTE: This is needed to enable use of apm_ops.stop() within iwl_eeprom_init();
priv->lock does not get initialized until after this flow. See patch

libertas: remove internal buffers from GSPI driver
This patch removes the internal command and data buffers that the GSPI driver
maintained and instead relies on the Libertas core to synchronize access
to the command and data ports as with the other interface drivers. This
cleanup reduces the GSPI driver's memory footprint and should improve
performance by removing the need to copy to these internal buffers.
This also simplifies the bottom half of the interrupt handler.
This is an incremental cleanup: after removing the redundant buffers, we
can further improve the driver to use a threaded IRQ handler instead of
maintaining its own thread. However I would like a few folks to test
the buffer removal first and make sure that I'm not introducing
regressions.
Tested on Blackfin BF527 with DMA disabled due to an issue with the SPI
host controller driver in the current bleeding-edge Blackfin kernel. I
would appreciate it if someone with working DMA could test this patch
and provide feedback.

code was added that tried to align the radiotap header
position in memory based on the radiotap header length.
Quite obviously, that is completely useless.
Instead of trying to do that, use unaligned accesses
to generate the radiotap header. To properly do that,
we also need to mark struct ieee80211_radiotap_header

(and it should be marked packed anyway since its a

hardware scan that is done while the hardware is

driver uses the mac80211 IEs). Vice versa, if the

Fix this by splitting up cfg80211 scan requests by

mac80211: fix dynamic power save for devices with nullfunc support in hw
In TX path it was assumed that dynamic power save works only if
IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK is set. But is not the case, there are
devices which have nullfunc support in hardware but need mac80211
to handle dynamic power save timers, TI's wl1251 is one of them.
The fix is to not check for IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK in

IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS flags and act accordingly.

AF_RAW: Augment raw_send_hdrinc to expand skb to fit iphdr->ihl (v2)
Augment raw_send_hdrinc to correct for incorrect ip header length values
A series of oopses was reported to me recently. Apparently when using AF_RAW
sockets to send data to peers that were reachable via ipsec encapsulation,
people could panic or BUG halt their systems.
I've tracked the problem down to user space sending an invalid ip header over an
AF_RAW socket with IP_HDRINCL set to 1.
Basically what happens is that userspace sends down an ip frame that includes
only the header (no data), but sets the ip header ihl value to a large number,
one that is larger than the total amount of data passed to the sendmsg call. In
raw_send_hdrincl, we allocate an skb based on the size of the data in the msghdr
that was passed in, but assume the data is all valid. Later during ipsec
encapsulation, xfrm4_tranport_output moves the entire frame back in the skbuff
to provide headroom for the ipsec headers. During this operation, the
skb->transport_header is repointed to a spot computed by
skb->network_header + the ip header length (ihl). Since so little data was
passed in relative to the value of ihl provided by the raw socket, we point
transport header to an unknown location, resulting in various crashes.
This fix for this is pretty straightforward, simply validate the value of of
iph->ihl when sending over a raw socket. If (iph->ihl*4U) > user data buffer
size, drop the frame and return -EINVAL. I just confirmed this fixes the
reported crashes.
