'git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git'
We need the following 2 patches from the 'net-next' tree for the BCMA flash
driver:
371a004 bcma: detect and register NAND flash device
d57ef3a bcma: detect and register serial flash device
and this is why we are merging the net-next tree (presumably persistent)
up to commit '371a004'.

In multi-channel scenarios, the channel that we will
transmit a probe request on isn't always the current
channel (which will be NULL anyway) but will instead
be the channel that the AP is on. Pass the channel
to the ieee80211_send_probe_req() function so it can
be used in the different scenarios. The scan code
continues to pass the current channel, of course.

The optimisation of scanning only on the current

Even for single-channel devices it is possible that we
switch the channel temporarily (e.g. for scanning) but
while doing so process a received frame that was still
received on the old channel, so checking the current
band is racy. Use the band from status instead.

With the move to multi-channel and away from
drv_config(), hw.conf.channel will not always

Also break some overly long lines in the code.

Using local->_oper_channel_type in the mesh code is

there are multiple virtual interfaces.

Some devices like the current iwlwifi implementation
require that the P2P interface address match the P2P
Device address (only one P2P interface is supported.)
Add the HW flag IEEE80211_HW_P2P_DEV_ADDR_FOR_INTF
that allows drivers to request that P2P Interfaces
added while a P2P Device is active get the same MAC
address by default.

After cfg80211 got a P2P Device abstraction, add
support to mac80211. Whether it really is supported
or not will depend on whether or not the driver has
support for it, but mac80211 needs to change to be
able to support drivers that need a P2P Device.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

In order to support using a different MAC address
for the P2P Device address we must first have a
P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC
address.
This abstraction will also be useful to support
offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g.
periodic listen for discoverability.
Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning
a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be
changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to
the NEW_INTERFACE command.
As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can
only be identified by its wdev identifier but the
previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier
in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

In IBSS it is possible that the supported rates set for a station changes over
time (e.g. it gets first initialised as an empty set because of no available
information about rates and updated later). In this case the driver has to be
notified about the change in order to update its internal table accordingly (if
needed).
This behaviour is needed by all those drivers that handle rc internally but

This could take a while (100ms+) and may delay sending assoc resp
in AP mode with WPS or P2P GO (as setting the probe resp takes place

ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify is called everytime a peer link is established
or closed, because the accepting_plinks flag in the meshconf IE *might* have changed.
With this patch the corresponding functions return the BSS_CHANGED_BEACON flag when a beacon update is necessary.
Also it makes mesh_accept_plinks_update the common place to update the accepting_plinks flag.
mesh_accept_plinks_update is called upon plink change and also periodically from ieee80211_mesh_housekeeping.
Thus, it also picks up changes of local->num_sta.

Here's a quote of the comment about the BUG macro from asm-generic/bug.h:
Don't use BUG() or BUG_ON() unless there's really no way out; one
example might be detecting data structure corruption in the middle
of an operation that can't be backed out of. If the (sub)system
can somehow continue operating, perhaps with reduced functionality,
it's probably not BUG-worthy.
If you're tempted to BUG(), think again: is completely giving up
really the *only* solution? There are usually better options, where
users don't need to reboot ASAP and can mostly shut down cleanly.
In our case, the status flag of a ring buffer slot is managed from both sides,
the kernel space and the user space. This means that even though the kernel
side might work as expected, the user space screws up and changes this flag
right between the send(2) is triggered when the flag is changed to
TP_STATUS_SENDING and a given skb is destructed after some time. Then, this
will hit the BUG macro. As David suggested, the best solution is to simply
remove this statement since it cannot be used for kernel side internal
consistency checks. I've tested it and the system still behaves /stable/ in
this case, so in accordance with the above comment, we should rather remove it.

Here is a handful of fixes intended for 3.6.
Daniel Drake offers a cfg80211 fix to consume pending events before
taking a wireless device down. This prevents a resource leak.
Stanislaw Gruszka gives us a fix for a NULL pointer dereference in

Johannes Berg provides an iwlwifi patch to disable "greenfield" mode.
Use of that mode was causing a rate scaling problem in for iwlwifi.

commit be9f4a44e7d41cee (ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock) added a
selinux regression, reported and bisected by John Stultz
selinux_ip_postroute_compat() expect to find a valid sk->sk_security
pointer, but this field is NULL for unicast_sock
It turns out that unicast_sock are really temporary stuff to be able
to reuse part of IP stack (ip_append_data()/ip_push_pending_frames())
Fact is that frames sent by ip_send_unicast_reply() should be orphaned
to not fool LSM.
Note IPv6 never had this problem, as tcp_v6_send_response() doesnt use a
fake socket at all. I'll probably implement tcp_v4_send_response() to
remove these unicast_sock in linux-3.7

[Resending again, as the text was corrupted by the email client]
To speed up operations, QFQ internally divides classes into
groups. Which group a class belongs to depends on the ratio between
the maximum packet length and the weight of the class. Unfortunately
the function qfq_change_class lacks the steps for changing the group
of a class when the ratio max_pkt_len/weight of the class changes.
For example, when the last of the following three commands is
executed, the group of class 1:1 is not correctly changed:
tc disc add dev XXX root handle 1: qfq
tc class add dev XXX parent 1: qfq classid 1:1 weight 1
tc class change dev XXX parent 1: classid 1:1 qfq weight 4
Not changing the group of a class does not affect the long-term
bandwidth guaranteed to the class, as the latter is independent of the
maximum packet length, and correctly changes (only) if the weight of
the class changes. In contrast, if the group of the class is not
updated, the class is still guaranteed the short-term bandwidth and
packet delay related to its old group, instead of the guarantees that
it should receive according to its new weight and/or maximum packet
length. This may also break service guarantees for other classes.
This patch adds the missing operations.

Apparently, declaring a const array without initializer put it in

lines.
Since we really want dst_default_metrics be const to avoid any possible
false sharing and catch any buggy writes, I force a null initializer.

IPv6 needs a cookie in dst_check() call.
We need to add rx_dst_cookie and provide a family independent
sk_rx_dst_set(sk, skb) method to properly support IPv6 TCP early demux.

Some action modules free struct tcf_common in their error path
while estimator is still active. This results in est_timer()
dereference freed memory.
Add gen_kill_estimator() in ipt, pedit and simple action.

__neigh_create() returns either a pointer to struct neighbour or PTR_ERR().
But the caller expects it to return either a pointer or NULL. Replace
the NULL check with IS_ERR() check.
The bug was introduced in a263b3093641fb1ec377582c90986a7fd0625184
("ipv4: Make neigh lookups directly in output packet path.").

We are freeing skb instead of nskb, resulting in a double
free on skb and a leak from nskb.

libertas currently calls cfg80211_disconnected() when it is being
brought down. This causes an event to be allocated, but since the
wdev is already removed from the rdev by the time that the event
processing work executes, the event is never processed or freed.

Fix this leak, and other possible situations, by processing the event
queue when a device is being unregistered. Thanks to Johannes Berg for
the suggestion.
