7262796ab7 iwl3945: Fix rate scale for B-mode connection
This patch make sure we use only CCK rate for B only network.
For 3945 driver, it sets REPLY_RATE_SCALE command every time
we connect to a new network. In this command we set for every
rate the number of try and next rate. The problem mac80211 reports
same mode for both B and G mode as IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ which will cause
using invalid rate other than CCK in B only network. THis patch
on association will examine sta valid rate on association, if no
OFDM rate in valid available rates it considers it as B only mode so
we can set REPLY_RATE_SCALE command with valid B only network and only
choose CCK rate in rate scaling.

447107fb32 mac80211: remove WARN_ON() from ieee80211_hw_config
ieee80211_hw_config can return an error when the hardware
has rfkill enabled. A WARN_ON() is too harsh for this
failure as it is a valid scenario. Only comment this warning
as we would like to have it back when rfkill is integrated into
mac80211.

Also reintroduce propagation of error if ieee80211_hw_config fails
in ieee80211_config_beacon.

7a3c66e2d3 net: Add support for the KS8695 ethernet devices.
Implements the KS8695 ethernet device (ks8695net).

This driver is only of use on the KS8695 which is an ARM9 based SoC. The
documentation on this SoC is sparse and poor, with barely a register
description and a rough outline of how the ethernet works, this driver was
therefore written with strong reference to the Micrel supplied Linux 2.6.9
port, and to Andrew Victor's ks8695eth driver.

8229efdaef netns: ip6mr: enable namespace support in ipv6 multicast forwarding code
This last patch makes the appropriate changes to use and propagate the
network namespace where needed in IPv6 multicast forwarding code.

This consists mainly in replacing all the remaining init_net occurences
with current netns pointer retrieved from sockets, net devices or 
mfc6_caches depending on the routines' contexts.

Some routines receive a new 'struct net' parameter to propagate the current
netns:
* ip6mr_get_route
* ip6mr_cache_report
* ip6mr_cache_find
* ip6mr_cache_unresolved
* mif6_add/mif6_delete
* ip6mr_mfc_add/ip6mr_mfc_delete
* ip6mr_reg_vif

All the IPv6 multicast forwarding variables moved to struct netns_ipv6 by
the previous patches are now referenced in the correct namespace.

Changelog:
==========
* Take into account the net associated to mfc6_cache when matching entries in
  mfc_unres_queue list.
* Call mroute_clean_tables() in ip6mr_net_exit() to free memory allocated
  per-namespace.
* Call dev_net_set() in ip6mr_reg_vif() to initialize dev->nd_net 
  correctly.

4045e57c19 netns: ip6mr: declare counter cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace
Preliminary work to make IPv6 multicast forwarding netns-aware.

Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: moves it into
struct netns_ipv6.

This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the
list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number
of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine 
ip6mr_cache_unresolved).
Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be
identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in 
struct mfc6_cache.

Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single
timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration.
In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming 
or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing 
mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch.

At the moment, cache_resolve_queue_len is only referenced in init_net.

e19caae717 bluetooth: Fix unused var warning properly in rfcomm_sock_ioctl().
As Stephen Rothwell points out, we don't want 'sock' here but
rather we really do want 'sk'.

This local var is protected by all sorts of bluetooth debugging
kconfig vars, but BT_DBG() is just a straight pr_debug() call
which is unconditional.

pr_debug() evaluates it's args only if either DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is defined.

Solving this inside of the BT_DBG() macro is non-trivial since
it's varargs.  And these ifdefs are ugly.

So, just mark this 'sk' thing __maybe_unused and kill the ifdefs.

6fdd34d43b dccp ccid-2: Phase out the use of boolean Ack Vector sysctl
This removes the use of the sysctl and the minisock variable for the Send Ack
Vector feature, as it now is handled fully dynamically via feature negotiation
(i.e. when CCID-2 is enabled, Ack Vectors are automatically enabled as per
 RFC 4341, 4.).

Using a sysctl in parallel to this implementation would open the door to
crashes, since much of the code relies on tests of the boolean minisock /
sysctl variable. Thus, this patch replaces all tests of type

	if (dccp_msk(sk)->dccpms_send_ack_vector)
		/* ... */
with
	if (dp->dccps_hc_rx_ackvec != NULL)
		/* ... */

The dccps_hc_rx_ackvec is allocated by the dccp_hdlr_ackvec() when feature
negotiation concluded that Ack Vectors are to be used on the half-connection.
Otherwise, it is NULL (due to dccp_init_sock/dccp_create_openreq_child),
so that the test is a valid one.

The activation handler for Ack Vectors is called as soon as the feature
negotiation has concluded at the
 * server when the Ack marking the transition RESPOND => OPEN arrives;
 * client after it has sent its ACK, marking the transition REQUEST => PARTOPEN.

Adding the sequence number of the Response packet to the Ack Vector has been
removed, since
 (a) connection establishment implies that the Response has been received;
 (b) the CCIDs only look at packets received in the (PART)OPEN state, i.e.
     this entry will always be ignored;
 (c) it can not be used for anything useful - to detect loss for instance, only
     packets received after the loss can serve as pseudo-dupacks.

There was a FIXME to change the error code when dccp_ackvec_add() fails.
I removed this after finding out that:
 * the check whether ackno < ISN is already made earlier,
 * this Response is likely the 1st packet with an Ackno that the client gets,
 * so when dccp_ackvec_add() fails, the reason is likely not a packet error.

4098dce5be dccp: Remove manual influence on NDP Count feature
Updating the NDP count feature is handled automatically now:
 * for CCID-2 it is disabled, since the code does not use NDP counts;
 * for CCID-3 it is enabled, as NDP counts are used to determine loss lengths.

Allowing the user to change NDP values leads to unpredictable and failing
behaviour, since it is then possible to disable NDP counts even when they
are needed (e.g. in CCID-3).

This means that only those user settings are sensible that agree with the
values for Send NDP Count implied by the choice of CCID. But those settings
are already activated by the feature negotiation (CCID dependency tracking),
hence this form of support is redundant.

At startup the initialisation of the NDP count feature uses the default
value of 0, which is done implicitly by the zeroing-out of the socket when
it is allocated. If the choice of CCID or feature negotiation enables NDP
count, this will then be updated via the NDP activation handler.

0049bab5e7 dccp: Remove obsolete parts of the old CCID interface
The TX/RX CCIDs of the minisock are now redundant: similar to the Ack Vector
case, their value equals initially that of the sysctl, but at the end of
feature negotiation may be something different.

The old interface removed by this patch thus has been replaced by the newer
interface to dynamically query the currently loaded CCIDs.

Also removed are the constructors for the TX CCID and the RX CCID, since the
switch "rx <-> non-rx" is done by the handler in minisocks.c (and the handler
is the only place in the code where CCIDs are loaded).

991d927c86 dccp: Integration of dynamic feature activation - part 3 (client side)
This integrates feature-activation in the client:

 1. When dccp_parse_options() fails, the reset code is already set; request_sent\
    _state_process() currently overrides this with `Packet Error', which is not
    intended - changed to use the reset code supplied by dccp_parse_options().

 2. When feature negotiation fails, the socket should be marked as not usable,
    so that the application is notified that an error occurred. This is achieved
    by a new label 'unable_to_proceed': generating an error code of `Aborted',
    setting the socket state to CLOSED, returning with ECOMM in sk_err.

 3. Avoids parsing the Ack twice in Respond state by not doing option processing
    again in dccp_rcv_respond_partopen_state_process (as option processing has
    already been done on the request_sock in dccp_check_req).

Since this addresses congestion-control initialisation, a corresponding
FIXME has been removed.

192b27ff35 dccp: Integration of dynamic feature activation - part 2 (server side)
This patch integrates the activation of features at the end of negotiation
into the server-side code.

Note regarding the removal of 'const':
--------------------------------------
 The 'const' attribute has been removed from 'dreq' since dccp_activate_values()
 needs to operate on dreq's feature list. Part of the activation is to remove
 those options from the list that have already been confirmed, hence it is not
 purely read-only.
