This patch fixes a deadlock situation in the receive path by allowing
temporary spillover of the receive buffer.
- If the chunk we receive has a tsn that immediately follows the ctsn,
accept it even if we run out of receive buffer space and renege data with
higher TSNs.
- Once we accept one chunk in a packet, accept all the remaining chunks
even if we run out of receive buffer space.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre
Intel PXA27x developers manual section 5.4.1.1 lists a priority
distribution for the DMA channels differently than what the code
currently assumes. This patch fixes that.

This patch is the first step towards rate control inside softmac.
The txrates substructure has been extended to provide
different fields for different types of packets (management/data,
unicast/multicast). These fields are updated on association to values
compatible with the access point we are associating to.
Drivers can then use the new ieee80211softmac_suggest_txrate() function
call when deciding which rate to transmit each frame at. This is
immensely useful for ZD1211, and bcm can use it too.
The user can still specify a rate through iwconfig, which is matched
for all transmissions (assuming the rate they have specified is in
the rate set required by the AP).
At a later date, we can incorporate automatic rate management into
the ieee80211softmac_recalc_txrates() function.
This patch also removes the mcast_fallback field. Sam Leffler pointed
out that this field is meaningless, because no driver will ever be
retransmitting mcast frames (they are not acked).

zd1211 with softmac and wpa_supplicant revealed an issue with softmac
and the use of workqueues. Some of the work functions actually
reschedule themselves, so this meant that there could still be
pending work after flush_scheduled_work() had been called during
ieee80211softmac_stop().
This patch introduces a "running" flag which is used to ensure that
rescheduling does not happen in this situation.
I also used this flag to ensure that softmac's hooks into ieee80211 are
non-operational once the stop operation has been started. This simply
makes softmac a little more robust, because I could crash it easily
by receiving frames in the short timeframe after shutting down softmac
and before turning off the ZD1211 radio. (ZD1211 is now fixed as well!)

This patch moves the i.MX uart resources and the gpio pin setup to the
board files. This allows the boards to decide how many internal uarts
are connected to the outside world and whether they use rts/cts or
not.

We have a case where __get_user and __put_user can validly be used
on kernel addresses in interrupt context - namely, the alignment
exception handler, as our get/put_unaligned just do a single access
and rely on the alignment exception handler to fix things up in the
rare cases where the cpu can't handle it in hardware. Thus we can
get alignment exceptions in the network stack at interrupt level.
The alignment exception handler does a __get_user to read the
instruction and blows up in might_sleep().
Since a __get_user on a kernel address won't actually ever sleep,
this makes the might_sleep conditional on the address being less
than PAGE_OFFSET.

The CSD contains a "read2write factor" which determines the multiplier to
be applied to the read timeout to obtain the write timeout. We were
ignoring this parameter, resulting in the possibility for writes being
timed out too early.

Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly
to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it,
however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU
list or not.
So remove PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU and do this check/add manually in pipe_to_file()
instead.
