99c62dd773 [POWERPC] Remove and replace uses of PPC_MEMSTART with memstart_addr
A number of users of PPC_MEMSTART (40x, ppc_mmu_32) can just always
use 0 as we don't support booting these kernels at non-zero physical
addresses since their exception vectors must be at 0 (or 0xfffx_xxxx).

For the sub-arches that support relocatable interrupt vectors
(book-e), it's reasonable to have memory start at a non-zero physical
address.  For those cases use the variable memstart_addr instead of
the #define PPC_MEMSTART since the only uses of PPC_MEMSTART are for
initialization and in the future we can set memstart_addr at runtime
to have a relocatable kernel.

7f4392cdcc [POWERPC] Efika: Really, don't pretend to be CHRP
Fedora 9 works on Efika without the separate 'device-tree supplement',
thanks to the kernel's own fixups. With one exception -- because 'CHRP'
still appears on the 'machine:' line in /proc/cpuinfo, the installer
misdetects the platform and misconfigures yaboot, putting it into a PReP
boot partition instead of in the /boot filesystem where the Efika's
firmware could find it.

The kernel's fixups for Efika already correct one instance of 'chrp', in
the 'device_type' property. This fixes it in the 'CODEGEN,description'
property too, since that's what's exposed to userspace in /proc/cpuinfo.

This implements various helpers to support OF bindings for the GPIO
LIB API.

Previously this was PowerPC specific, but it seems this code isn't
arch-dependent anyhow, so let's place it into of/.

SPARC will not see this addition yet, real hardware seem to not use
GPIOs at all. But this might change:

e6768a4f39 [POWERPC] Fixup softirq preempt count
This fixes the handling of the preempt count when switching
interrupt stacks so that HW interrupt properly get the softirq
mask copied over from the previous stack.

It also initializes the softirq stack preempt_count to 0 instead
of SOFTIRQ_OFFSET, like x86, as __do_softirq() does the increment,
and we hit some lockdep checks if we have it twice.

That means we do run for a little while off the softirq stack
with the preempt-count set to 0, which could be deadly if we
try to take a softirq at that point, however we do so with
interrupts disabled, so I think we are ok.

7c6352a469 [POWERPC] Initialize paca->current earlier
Currently, we initialize the "current" pointer in the PACA (which
is used by the "current" macro in the kernel) before calling
setup_system(). That means that early_setup() is called with
current still "NULL" which is -not- a good idea. It happens to
work so far but breaks with lockdep when early code calls printk.

This changes it so that all PACAs are statically initialized with
__current pointing to the init task. For non-0 CPUs, this is fixed
up before use.

This patch reworks the scanning code (ieee80211_rx_bss_info) to take
more parameters from beacons and keep a BSS info structure alive when
only beacons for it are received. This fixes a problem with iwlwifi
drivers (where we don't understand the root cause of the problem yet)
and another driver for some broken hardware (which cannot send probe
requests unless associated, so can't always actively scan.)

49ea85961c iwlwifi: remove the statistics work
This patch does 3 things

1) It removes the statistics work. The request statistics command is
sent in ASYNC mode in this flow, the mutex is uneeded, so the request
statistics function can't go to sleep. No need for a workqueue anymore.

2) iwl4965_send_statistics_request has been renamed to
iwl_send_statistics_request and moved to iwl-core.c

3) A request for statistics is sent in alive_notify, the makes the uCode
sends statistics notification periodically starting from association.

ba380013b6 b43: Add fastpath to b43_mac_suspend()
This adds a fastpath for the common workloads to the
MAC suspend flushing.
In common workloads the FIFO flush will take between 100 and
200 microseconds. So we want to avoid calling msleep() in the
common case, as it will waste over 800 microseconds + scheduler
overhead.

This fastpath will hit in workloads where only small chunks
of data are transmitted (downloading a file) or when a TX rate bigger
or equal to 24MBit/s is used when transmitting lots of stuff (iperf).
So in the commonly used workloads it will basically always hit.

In case the fastpath is not hit, there's no real performance or latency
disadvantage from that.

And yes, I measured this. So this is not one of these
bad Programmer Likeliness Assumptions that are always wrong. ;)

245cbe7a65 mac80211: fix key todo list order
When we add multiple todo entries, we rely on them being executed
mostly in the right order, especially when a key is being replaced.
But when a default key is replaced, the todo list order will differ
from the order when the key being replaced is not a default key, so
problems will happen. Hence, just move each todo item to the end of
the list when it is added so we can in the other code ensure that
hw accel for a key will be disabled before it is enabled for the
replacement.

we are associated - these will still be used to send updates to driver as

This change·removes the requirement that bss_info_changed needs to be atomic.
The beacons received during scanning are processed from a tasklet, but if we
do not call bss_info_changed for these beacons there is no need for it to be
atomic. This function (bss_info_changed) is called either from workqueue or

Some command structs contain reserved or unused fields, which the driver
send uninitialized down to the card.

7919b89c82 libertas: convert libertas driver to use an event/cmdresp queue
This patch (co-developed by Dan Williams and Holger Schurig) uses a kfifo
object for events and a swapping buffer scheme for the command response to
preserve the zero-copy semantics of the CF driver and keep memory usage low.
The main thread should only ever touch the buffer indexed by priv->resp_idx,
while the interface code is free to write to the second buffer, then swap
priv->resp_idx under the driver spinlock.  The firmware specs only permit
one in-flight command, so there will only ever be one command response to
process at a time.
