* iwlagn: new RXON processing for modern devicesJohannes Berg2010-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to simplify the flow, and make new enhancements easier, separate out the RXON processing for modern AGN (5000 and newer) from RXON processing for the older 3945 and 4965 devices. Avoid changing these old ones to avoid regressions and move their code to a new file (iwl-legacy.c). 4965 gets the commit_rxon that used to be common for all AGN devices, but with removed PAN support. The new RXON processing is more central and does more work in committing, so that it is easier to follow. To make it more evident what is split out for legacy, split the necessary operations for that into a new struct iwl_legacy_ops. Those parts that still exist in the new AGN code don't need to be parametrized.

* iwlagn: don't resend RXON timingJohannes Berg2010-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Resending RXON timing here caused issues with dual-mode under certain circumstances, so avoid doing it here right now. This effectively reverts b01efe434bd6ea807eb72b and partially 2491fa42d9bdf26075765. The next patch will make all this cleaner for just the devices that need it.

* ath9k: content DMA start / stop through the PCU lockLuis R. Rodriguez2010-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This helps align resets / RX enable & disable / TX stop / start. Locking around the PCU is important to ensure the hardware doesn't get stale data when working with DMA'able data. This is part of a series of patches which fix stopping TX DMA completley when requested on the driver.

* ath9k: add a debug warning when we cannot stop RXLuis R. Rodriguez2010-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have seen several DMA races when we race against stopping and starting the PCU. I suspect that when we cannot stop the PCU we may hit some of these same races so warn against them for now but only when debugging (CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG) is enabled. If you run into this warning and are a developer, please fix the cause of the warning. The potential here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA engine can be confused and start writing to a buffer that was already DMA'd before and at least the kernel assumes is not being accessed by hardware anymore.

* cfg80211: fix disabling channels based on hintsLuis R. Rodriguez2010-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After a module loads you will have loaded the world roaming regulatory domain or a custom regulatory domain. Further regulatory hints are welcomed and should be respected unless the regulatory hint is coming from a country IE as the IEEE spec allows for a country IE to be a subset of what is allowed by the local regulatory agencies. So disable all channels that do not fit a regulatory domain sent from a unless the hint is from a country IE and the country IE had no information about the band we are currently processing. This fixes a few regulatory issues, for example for drivers that depend on CRDA and had no 5 GHz freqencies allowed were not properly disabling 5 GHz at all, furthermore it also allows users to restrict devices further as was intended. If you recieve a country IE upon association we will also disable the channels that are not allowed if the country IE had at least one channel on the respective band we are procesing. This was the original intention behind this design but it was completely overlooked...
