* iwlwifi: fix possible read attempt on ucode that is not availableReinette Chatre2008-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | This fixes a NULL pointer dereference that can occur when the ucode is not loaded at the time __iwl_up is called.

* rt2x00: Fix ieee80211 payload alignmentIvo van Doorn2008-01-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Johannes Berg indicated, the NET_IP_ALIGN doesn't need to be used for ieee80211 frames. This means we can simplify the alignment calculation to just use the result of the header size modulus 4 as frame alignment. Furthermore we shouldn't use NET_IP_ALIGN in rt2x00usb because it could be 0 on some architectures and we absolutely need to have 2 bytes reserved for possible aligning.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes it happens in the tx path that an entry given to the hardware isn't reported in the txdone handler. This ultimately led to the dreaded "non-free entry in the non-full queue" message and the stopping of the tx queue. Work around this issue by allowing the driver to also clear out previos entries in the txdone handler.

* | b43: Fix rfkill radio LEDLarry Finger2007-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes Bug #9414 Since addition of the rfkill callback, the LED associated with the off switch on the radio has not worked for several reasons: (1) Essential data in the rfkill structure were missing. (2) The rfkill structure was initialized after the LED initialization. (3) There was a minor memory leak if the radio LED structure was inited. Once the above problems were fixed, additional difficulties were noted: (4) The radio LED was in the wrong state at startup. (5) The radio switch had to be manipulated twice for each state change. (6) A circular mutex locking situation existed. (7) If rfkill-input is built as a module, it is not automatically loaded. This patch fixes all of the above.
