This patch adds support for the realtek 8211c phy. The driver must
perform a hardware reset of the phy due to an errata where the phy could

The master interface is a virtual interface that is registered
to mac80211, changing that does not seem like a good idea at
the moment. However, since it has no sdata, we cannot accept
any configuration for it. This patch makes the cfg80211 hooks
reject any such attempt.

This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step
from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now,
disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing,
will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software
requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is
not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

Wireless statistics produced by the RTL8187B driver are not particularly
informative about the strength of the received signal. From the data sheet
provided by Realtek, I discovered that certain parts of the RX header
should have the information necessary to calculate signal quality and
strength. With testing, it became clear that most of these quantities were
very jittery - only the AGC correlated with the signals expected from nearby
AP's. As a result, the quality and strength are derived from the agc value.
The scaling has been determined so that the numbers are close to those
obtained by b43 under the same conditions. The results are qualitatively
correct.
Statistics derived for the RTL8187 have not been changed.
The RX header variables have been renamed to match the quantites described
in the Realtek data sheet.

"mac80211: fix TX sequence numbers" broke rtl8187. This
patch makes the same kind of fix that was done for rt2x00. Note that
this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons.
In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state,
not the vif state.

MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
(which in fact is never set) instead of
CONFIG_MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG, as should be.

When the queues are being initialized the entry flags fields must be
reset to 0. When this does not happen some entries might still be
marked as "occupied" after an ifdown & ifup cycle which would trigger
errors when the entry is being accessed:
phy0 -> rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.
Please file bug report to http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com.
This also fixes the mac80211 warning:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at net/mac80211/tx.c:1238 ieee80211_master_start_xmit+0x30a/0x350 [mac80211]()

rt2x00 will only perform configuration changes from
mac80211 when the configuration option has changed.
This means it keeps track of the current active configuration
and will check these values when the config() callback function
is used.
However this causes breakage when the interface has been
brought down and up again, since all stored active values
aren't reset while the registers might have.
This is for example the case with rt61pci antenna registers which
will jump to invalid values when the interface has been started.
To make sure a full configuration takes place after the start()
callback function, a new flag is added which will be checked
during config() and skips the "what's changed" phase.

When IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is not set,
the driver should disable hardware sequence counting
to make sure the mac80211 provided counter is used.
This fixes QOS sequence counting, since that is one
of the cases where mac80211 provides a seperate
sequence counter.
By moving the sequence counting code to rt2x00queue
we make sure that _all_ frames get the sequence counter,
including RTS/CTS and Beacon frames.

When setting up a beacon template, the length of the beacon is
calculated with the assumption that the SKB already contains
the Tx descriptor. In the case of beacons it doesn't.
This patch undoes the damage by adding the Tx descriptor length
to the beacon length. This is safe, because the shortest possible
beacon is longer than the Tx header.

Olivier reported a difference between the EIFS
values used in the legacy driver and the one in
the rt2x00 drivers.
In rt2x00 the value was
( SIFS + (8 * (IEEE80211_HEADER + ACK_SIZE)) )
which comes down to 314us while the legacy driver uses the value 364us
This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime
This patch will fix this by adding the DIFS by the above value,
and creating a SHORT_EIFS define which uses the SHORT_DIFS.

There are two mutexes in rfkill:
rfkill->mutex, which protects some of the fields of a rfkill struct, and is
also used for callback serialization.
rfkill_mutex, which protects the global state, the list of registered
rfkill structs and rfkill->claim.
Make sure to use the correct mutex, and to not miss locking rfkill->mutex
even when we already took rfkill_mutex.

rfkill needs to unregister the led trigger AFTER a call to
rfkill_remove_switch(), otherwise it will not update the LED state,
possibly leaving it ON when it should be OFF.
To make led-trigger unregistering safer, guard against unregistering a
trigger twice, and also against issuing trigger events to a led trigger
that was unregistered. This makes the error unwind paths more resilient.
Refer to "rfkill: Register LED triggers before registering switch".

Make sure that the irq is not in progress after stop. This means
two things:
- ensure the intr setting register is set by flushing posted values
- call synchronize_irq() after that
Also flush stop tx write, inform callers of the tx stop about still
pending transfers (unsuccessful stop) and finally don't wait another
3ms in ath5k_rx_stop, since ath5k_hw_stop_rx_dma ensures transfer to
be finished.
Make sure all writes will be ordered in respect to locks by mmiowb().

When signal is noisy, hardware can use all RX buffers and since the last
entry in the list is self-linked, it overwrites the entry until we link
new buffers.
Ensure that we don't free this last one until we are 100% sure that it
is not used by the hardware anymore to not cause memory curruption as
can be seen below.
This is done by checking next buffer in the list. Even after that we
know that the hardware refetched the new link and proceeded further
(the next buffer is ready) we can finally free the overwritten buffer.
We discard it since the status in its descriptor is overwritten (OR-ed
by new status) too.

Alexey Dobriyan reported trouble with LTP with the new fast-gup code,
and Johannes Weiner debugged it to non-page-aligned addresses, where the
new get_user_pages_fast() code would do all the wrong things, including
just traversing past the end of the requested area due to 'addr' never
matching 'end' exactly.
This is not a pretty fix, and we may actually want to move the alignment
into generic code, leaving just the core code per-arch, but Alexey
verified that the vmsplice01 LTP test doesn't crash with this.

lguest uses a Waker process to break it out of the kernel (ie.
actually running the guest) when file descriptor needs attention.
Changing this from a process to a thread somewhat simplifies things:
it can directly access the fd_set of things to watch. More
importantly, it means that the Waker can see Guest memory correctly,
so /dev/vring file descriptors will work as anticipated (the
alternative is to actually mmap MAP_SHARED, but you can't do that with
/dev/zero).
