2009-01-12rtl8187: Fix module so that rmmod/insmod does not errorJohannes Berg
Due to misunderstanding of the returned values allowed for the tx callback of mac80211, rtl8187 was using skb's that had been freed. This problem was triggered when the module was sujected to a rmmod/insmod cycle. After that was fixed, the modules would not work after the rmmod/insmod cycle until the USB device was reset.

This patch hopefully fixes a mac80211<->p54 interaction problem, which was described by Larry Finger (ref: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=123009889327707 ) I guess the warning was triggered by pending frames in the receive queue, while we're doing a band change 5GHz.

2009-01-12ath9k: Revert fix to TX status reporting for retries and MCS indexJouni Malinen
This patch reverts "ath9k: Fix TX status reporting for retries and MCS index" because that change ended up breaking ath9k rate control. While the MCS index reporting to mac80211 was indeed fixed by the patch, it did not take into account that the ath9k rate control algorithm was updating private tables based on this index and the index comes through the rate control API call, i.e., based on mac80211 TX status call. In addition, it looks like the "fix" to remove +1 from TX status 'count' field was not correct based on ieee80211_tx_status() implementation that counts the total of count values, but starting from -1, not 0. The TX status reporting for frames using MCS needs to be fixed somehow, but it does not look like there is any easy fix for the ath9k rate control algorithm, so the best option now seems to be to revert the change and bring it back once the rate control code is cleaned up to handle this better.

2009-01-12rt2x00: Fix segementation faultIvo van Doorn
The queue_end() macro points to 1 position after the queue, which means that if we want to know if queue is at the end of the queue we should first increment the position and then check if it is a valid entry. This fixes a segmentation fault which only occurs when the device has enough endpoints to provide a dedicated endpoint for all TX queues (which likely won't happen for rt2500usb and rt73usb, but will happen for rt2800usb).

2009-01-12orinoco: take the driver lock in the rx taskletDavid Kilroy
Fix the warning reproduced below. We add to rx_list in interrupt context and remove elements in tasklet context. While removing elements we need to prevent the interrupt modifying the list. Note that "orinoco: Process bulk of receive interrupt in a tasklet" did not preserve locking semantics on what is now orinoco_rx. This patch reinstates the locking semantics and ensures it covers rx_list as well. This leads to additional cleanup required in free_orinocodev.

2009-01-11cxgb3: Keep LRO off if disabled when interface is downRoland Dreier
I have a system with a Chelsio adapter (driven by cxgb3) whose ports are part of a Linux bridge. Recently I updated the kernel and discovered that things stopped working because cxgb3 was doing LRO on packets that were passed into the bridge code for forwarding. (Incidentally, this problem manifested itself in a strange way that made debugging a bit interesting -- for some reason, the skb_warn_if_lro() check in bridge didn't trigger and these LROed packets were forwarded out a forcedeth interface, and caused the forcedeth transmit path to get stuck) This is because cxgb3 has no way of keeping state for the LRO flag until the interface is brought up, so if the bridging code disables LRO while the interface is down, then cxgb3_up() will just reenable LRO, and on my Debian system at least, the init scripts add interfaces to a bridge before bringing the interfaces up. Fix this by keeping track of each interface's LRO state in cxgb3 so that when bridge disables LRO, it stays disabled in cxgb3_up() when the interface is brought up. I did this by changing the rx_csum_offload flag into a pair of bit flags; the effect of this on the rx_eth() fast path is miniscule enough that it should be fine (eg on x86, a cmpb instruction becomes a testb instruction).

2009-01-11forcedeth: xmit lock fixAyaz Abdulla
This patch fixes a potential race condition between xmit thread and xmit completion thread. The calculation of empty tx descriptors is not performed under the lock. This could cause it to set the stop flag while the completion thread finishes all tx's. This will result in the tx queue in stopped state and no one to wake it up.

2009-01-11drivers/net/wireless/libertas: move a dereference below a NULL testJulia Lawall
In each case, if the NULL test is necessary, then the dereference should be moved below the NULL test. I have also taken advantage of the availability of the value of priv->dev in the subsequent calls to netif_stop_queue and netif_carrier_off.
