23e76d1a51 iwlwifi: pcie: don't panic on host commands in iwldvm
None of the devices supported by iwldvm have support for
shadow registers. This means that we wake the NIC
when we increment the write pointer on Tx ring.
This happened even before my bad commit mentionned below.
Since my commit below, we wake up the NIC when we put a
host command on the ring regardless of shadow register
support. This means that in iwldvm (when the NIC doesn't
support shadow register), we wake up the NIC twice:

pcie_enqueue_hcmd:
	wake up the NIC
	iwl_pcie_txq_inc_wr_ptr:
		wake up the NIC - no shadow reg support

Since waking up the NIC means that we need to acquire a
spinlock, this obviously leads to a recursive spinlock
and hence a freeze.

2d93aee152 iwlwifi: pcie: enable oscillator for L1 exit
Enabling the oscillator consumes slightly more power (100uA)
but allows to make sure that we exit from L1 on time.

Not doing so might lead to a PCIe specification violation

This issue has been identified on 3160 and 7260 only.
On older NICs L1 off is not enabled, on newer NICs (7265),
the issue is fixed.

When the bug occurs the user sees that the NIC has
disappeared from the PCI bridge, any access to the device
returns 0xff.

071aa9a8b2 ath9k: Process GTT interrupts
Global Transmission Timeout interrupts are generated by
the HW when transmission of a frame fails - this is done
based on the threshold programmed in the AR_GTXTO register.

Currently, even though the interrupt is enabled for all chips,
it is not handled in the driver. This patch handles GTT events
for AR9003 and above chips, checking if the MAC/BB has hung
after successive GTT interrupts crosses a threshold (5).

This can be enabled for the older chips in the AR9002 family once
appropriate HW hang checks are implemented for them.

4520286653 b43legacy: Fix unload oops if firmware is not available
The asyncronous firmware load uses a completion struct to hold firmware
processing until the user-space routines are up and running. There is.
however, a problem in that the waiter is nevered canceled during teardown.
As a result, unloading the driver when firmware is not available causes an oops.

0673effd41 b43: Fix unload oops if firmware is not available
The asyncronous firmware load uses a completion struct to hold firmware
processing until the user-space routines are up and running. There is.
however, a problem in that the waiter is nevered canceled during teardown.
As a result, unloading the driver when firmware is not available causes an oops.

To be able to access the completion structure at teardown, it had to be moved
into the b43_wldev structure.

This patch also fixes a typo in a comment.

09164043f6 b43: Fix lockdep splat
In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67561, a locking dependency is reported
when b43 is used with hostapd, and rfkill is used to kill the radio output.

The lockdep splat (in part) is as follows:

======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
3.12.0 #1 Not tainted
-------------------------------------------------------
rfkill/10040 is trying to acquire lock:
 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8146f282>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x20

but task is already holding lock:
 (rfkill_global_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa04832ca>] rfkill_fop_write+0x6a/0x170 [rfkill]

--snip--

Chain exists of:
  rtnl_mutex --> misc_mtx --> rfkill_global_mutex

The fix is to move the initialization of the hardware random number generator
outside the code range covered by the rtnl_mutex.
