Add QoS (WME) support to the ieee80211 subsystem.
NOTE: This requires drivers that use the ieee80211 hard_start_xmit
(ipw2100 and ipw2200) to add the priority parameter to their callback.

payload_size reporting

committer James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> 1127313183 -0500
Fix TKIP, repeated fragmentation problem, and payload_size reporting
1. TKIP encryption
Originally, TKIP encryption issues msdu + mpdu encryption on every
fragment. Change the behavior to msdu encryption on the whole
packet, then mpdu encryption on every fragment.
2. Avoid repeated fragmentation when !host_encrypt.
We only need do fragmentation when using host encryption. Otherwise
we only need pass the whole packet to driver, letting driver do the
fragmentation.
3. change the txb->payload_size to correct value
FW will use this value to determine whether to do fragmentation. If
we pass the wrong value, fw may cut on the wrong bound which will
make decryption fail when we do host encryption.
NOTE: This requires changing drivers (hostap) that have
extra_prefix_len used within them (structure member name change).

Renamed ieee80211_hdr to ieee80211_hdr_3addr and modified ieee80211_hdr
to just contain the frame_ctrl and duration_id.
Changed uses of ieee80211_hdr to ieee80211_hdr_4addr or
ieee80211_hdr_3addr based on what was expected for that portion of code.

Allow drivers to fix an issue when using wpa_supplicant with WEP.
The problem is introduced by the hwcrypto patch. We changed indicator of
the encryption request from the upper layer (i.e. wpa_supplicant):
In the original host based crypto the driver could use: crypt &&
crypt->ops.
In the new hardware based crypto, the driver should use the flags
specified in ieee->sec.encrypt.

Fix kernel Oops when module unload.
Export a new function ieee80211_crypt_quiescing from ieee80211. Device
drivers call it to make the host crypto stack enter the quiescence
state, which means "process existing requests, but don't accept new
ones". This is usually called during a driver's host crypto data
structure free (module unload) path.

As recently done by Russell King for ARM, commit
4732efbeb997189d9f9b04708dc26bf8613ed721 introduces a generic asm/futex.h copied
along most arches, which includes a "-ENOSYS support" to be changed if needed.
However, it includes an unused var (taken from the "real" version) which GCC
warns about.
Remove it from all arches having that file version (i.e. same GIT id).
$ git-diff-tree -r HEAD
and
$ git-ls-tree -r HEAD include/|grep 9feff4ce1424bc390608326240be369eb13aa648
may be more interesting than looking at the patch itself, to make sure I've
just copied the arm header to all other archs having the original dummy version
of this file.

Follow up to 4732efbeb997189d9f9b04708dc26bf8613ed721 - uml must just reuse
as-is the backing architecture support. There is a micro-fixup is needed for the
included file, which won't affect i386 behaviour at all.
I've not tested compilation on x86_64, only on x86, but the code is almost the
same except the culprit test, so everything should be ok on x86_64 too.

Hugh made me note this line for permission checking in mprotect():
if ((newflags & ~(newflags >> 4)) & 0xf) {
after figuring out what's that about, I decided it's nasty enough. Btw
Hugh itself didn't like the 0xf.
We can safely change it to VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC because we never change
VM_SHARED, so no need to check that.

obviously FC Port Speeds in scsi_transport_fc.h are defined according
to FC-HBA:
#define FC_PORTSPEED_1GBIT 1
#define FC_PORTSPEED_2GBIT 2
#define FC_PORTSPEED_10GBIT 4
#define FC_PORTSPEED_4GBIT 8
Problem is, whoever invented FC-HBA did not care about FC-FS or
FC-GS-x. Following FC-FS/FC-GS-x defintions of port speeds would look
like:
1 GBit: 0x0001
2 GBit: 0x0002
4 GBit: 0x0004
10GBit: 0x0008
(and new in FC-LS:
8 Gbit: 0x0010
16GBit: 0x0020)
I really appreciate if scsi_transport_fc.h would define port speeds
according to FC-GS-x/FC-FS. Thus mapping of port speed capabilities to
values defined in scsi_transport_fc.h can be avoided in the LLDD.
Attached is a patch to change the definitions.

As discussed in the dccp@vger mailing list:
Now applications have to use setsockopt(DCCP_SOCKOPT_SERVICE, service[s]),
prior to calling listen() and connect().
An array of unsigned ints can be passed meaning that the listening sock accepts
connection requests for several services.
With this we can ditch struct sockaddr_dccp and use only sockaddr_in (and
sockaddr_in6 in the future).

Kill an unused member of the i2c_adapter structure. This additionally
fixes a potential bug, because <linux/i2c.h> doesn't include
<linux/config.h>, so different files including <linux/i2c.h> could see a
different definition of the i2c_adapter structure, depending on them
including <linux/config.h> (or other header files themselves including
<linux/config.h>) before <linux/i2c.h>, or not.
Credits go to Jörn Engel for pointing me to the problem.

Added ppc_sys device and system definitions for PowerQUICC I devices. This
will allow drivers for PQI to be proper platform device drivers. Currently
sys section contains only MPC885 and MPC866. Identification should be done
with identify_ppc_sys_by_name call, with board-specific "name" string
passed, since PQI do not have any register that could identify the SOC.

This patch implements a stack trace for a thread, not unlike sysrq-t does.
The advantage to this is that a break point can be placed on showreqs, so that
upon showing the stack, you jump immediately into the debugger. While sysrq-t
does the same thing, sysrq-t shows *all* threads stacks. It also doesn't work
right now. In the future, I thought it might be acceptable to make this show
all pids stacks, but perhaps leaving well enough alone and just using sysrq-t
would be okay. For now, upon receiving the stack command, UML switches
context to that thread, dumps its registers, and then switches context back to
the original thread. Since UML compacts all threads into one of 4 host
threads, this sort of mechanism could be expanded in the future to include
other debugging helpers that sysrq does not cover.
Note by jdike - The main benefit to this is that it brings an arbitrary thread
back into context, where it can be examined by gdb. The fact that it dumps it
stack is secondary. This provides the capability to examine a sleeping
thread, which has existed in tt mode, but not in skas mode until now.
Also, the other threads, that sysrq doesn't cover, can be gdb-ed directly
anyway.
