This reverts commit 7e0bfad24d.

A late objection to the ABI has arrived:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/10/253

Keep the ABI disabled out of caution, to not create premature
user-space expectations.

While the hw-branch-tracing variant uses and tests the BTS code.

0fea615e52 CPUFREQ: Mark e_powersaver driver as EXPERIMENTAL and DANGEROUS
The e_powersaver driver for VIA's C7 CPU's needs to be marked as
DANGEROUS as it configures the CPU to power states that are out
of specification.

According to Centaur, all systems with C7 and Nano CPU's support
the ACPI p-state method.  Thus, the acpi-cpufreq driver should
be used instead.

5e50b9ef97 floppy: fix hibernation
Based on Ingo Molnar's patch from 2006, this makes the floppy work after
resume from hibernation, at least on my machine.

This fix resets the floppy controller on resume.  It was experimentally
determined to bring the controller back to life - we don't really know why
it works.

floppy_init() does the same thing at boot/modprobe time.

d9c7d394a8 block: prevent possible io_context->refcount overflow
Currently io_context has an atomic_t(32-bit) as refcount.  In the case of
cfq, for each device against whcih a task does I/O, a reference to the
io_context would be taken.  And when there are multiple process sharing
io_contexts(CLONE_IO) would also have a reference to the same io_context.

Theoretically the possible maximum number of processes sharing the same
io_context + the number of disks/cfq_data referring to the same io_context
can overflow the 32-bit counter on a very high-end machine.

Even though it is an improbable case, let us make it atomic_long_t.

4eedeb75e7 Btrfs: pin buffers during write_dev_supers
write_dev_supers is called in sequence.  First is it called with wait == 0,
which starts IO on all of the super blocks for a given device.  Then it is
called with wait == 1 to make sure they all reach the disk.

It doesn't currently pin the buffers between the two calls, and it also
assumes the buffers won't go away between the two calls, leading to
an oops if the VM manages to free the buffers in the middle of the sync.

This fixes that assumption and updates the code to return an error if things
are not up to date when the wait == 1 run is done.

e5e9a5206a Btrfs: avoid races between super writeout and device list updates
On multi-device filesystems, btrfs writes supers to all of the devices
before considering a sync complete.  There wasn't any additional
locking between super writeout and the device list management code
because device management was done inside a transaction and
super writeout only happened  with no transation writers running.

With the btrfs fsync log and other async transaction updates, this
has been racey for some time.  This adds a mutex to protect
the device list.  The existing volume mutex could not be reused due to
transaction lock ordering requirements.

2f0accc135 cfg80211: fix rfkill locking problem
rfkill currently requires a global lock within the
rfkill_register() function, and holds that lock over
calls to the set_block() methods. This means that we
cannot hold a lock around rfkill_register() that we
also require in set_block(), directly or indirectly.
Fix cfg80211 to register rfkill outside the block
locked by its global lock. Much of what cfg80211 does
in the locked block doesn't need to be locked anyway.

43f7853180 mac80211: disable moving between PS modes during scan
We don't want to trigger moving between PS mode during scan,
because then we will sometimes end up sending nullfunc frames
during scan. We're supposed to only send one prior to scan
and after scan.

This fixes an oops which occured due to an assert in ath9k:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=124277331319024

The assert was happening because the rate control algorithm
figures it should find at least one valid dual stream or
single stream rate. Since we allow mac80211 to send nullfunc
frames during scan and dynamic PS was enabled at times we ended
up trying to send nullfunc frames for the target sta on the
wrong band for which we have no valid rate to communicate with
it. This breaks the assumptions in rate control.

We determine we also need to disable moving between PS modes
when not associated so lets just add that now as well, and we
should not have a ps_sdata when that interface cannot actually
go into PS because it's not associated.

5eae6592e9 ath9k: Fix tx stuck when connected to aggr disabled HT AP
This patch along with my previous patch in mac80211 "Fix the
way ADDBA count..", fixes hang in tx when connected to an HT
AP which rejects/times out on addba req.

AGGR_ADDBA_PROGRESS should be cleared in aggr state when addba
negotiation is terminated due to either addba response is timed out
or addba is denied by the AP. With out clearing this bit,
all frames are queued onto s/w queue for getting tx'd as aggr and
will never be scheduled onto hw queue.

736708bd04 mac80211: Fix the way ADDBA request count being modified
addba_req_num[tid] is supposed to have the count of consecutive
addba request attempts on 'tid' which failed. This count is checked
against a retry threshold (3 times) before starting the addba negotiation.
This patch fixes the way this addba count is incremented/reset and thereby
avoids indefinite addba attempts.

908209c160 rfkill: don't impose global states on resume (just restore the previous states)
Once rfkill-input is disabled, the "global" states will only be used as

Since the states will always be the same after resume, we shouldn't

b3fa1329ea rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state
rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no
longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core.

Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state
across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling
rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration.  Otherwise, they will be
initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call.

We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before
registration, since these had no effect in the old model.  If these
drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject
to testing :-).  This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi.

Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if
rfkill-input is enabled.  This is required, otherwise booting with
wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would
have no apparent effect.  This special case will be removed in future
along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon
(see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt).

Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states
over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

8f77f3849c mac80211: do not pass PS frames out of mac80211 again
In order to handle powersave frames properly we had needed
to pass these out to the device queues again, and introduce
the skb->requeue bit. This, however, also has unnecessary
overhead by needing to 'clean up' already tried frames, and
this clean-up code is also buggy when software encryption
is used.

Instead of sending the frames via the master netdev queue
again, simply put them into the pending queue. This also
fixes a problem where frames for that particular station
could be reordered when some were still on the software
queues and older ones are re-injected into the software
queue after them.

e6a3b61681 ath5k: added cfg80211 based rfkill support
This patch introduces initial rfkill support for the ath5k driver
based on rfkill support in the cfg80211 framework.
All rfkill related code is separated into newly created rfkill.c.

Changes to existing code are minimal:

* added a new data structure ath5k_rfkill to the ath5k_softc structure
* inserted calls to HW rfkill init/deinit routines
* ath5k_intr() has been extended to handle AR5K_INT_GPIO interrupts

9b9c5aaeed ar9170: xmit code revamp
This patch is a back-port from aggregation testing code.

In the past, we didn't limit the amount of active tx urbs.
However, ar9170 only has a limited buffer reserved for
pending data frames.

This wasn't much of a problem with the slower 802.11b/g.
We simply stopped the full queue and moved on to something different
in the mean time. But - as you guessed it -  this simple approach
stands in way for a decent aggregation implementation.
