28bd620c7a drivers/net: Add Micrel KS8841/42 support to ks8842 driver
Body of the explanation:
   -support 16bit and 32bit bus width.
   -add device reset for ks8842/8841 Micrel device.
   -set 100Mbps as a default for Micrel device.
   -set MAC address in both MAC/Switch layer with different sequence for Micrel
    device, as mentioned in data sheet.
   -use private data to set options both 16/32bit bus width and Micrel device/
    Timberdale(FPGA).
   -update Kconfig in order to put more information about ks8842 device.

97b72e4320 fec: use interrupt for MDIO completion indication
With the move to phylib (commit e6b043d) I was seeing sporadic "MDIO write
timeout" messages. Measure of the actual time spent showed latency times of
more than 1600us.

This patch uses the MII event indication of the FEC hardware to detect
completion of MDIO transactions.

15fd0cd9a2 net: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex
All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.

None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.

Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.

bbacee13f4 ath9k: merge noisefloor load implementations
AR5008+ and AR9003 currently use two separate implementations of the
ath9k_hw_loadnf function. There are three main differences:

 - PHY registers for AR9003 are different
 - AR9003 always uses 3 chains, earlier versions are more selective
 - The AR9003 variant contains a fix for NF load timeouts

This patch merges the two implementations into one, storing the
register array in the ath_hw struct. The fix for NF load timeouts is
not just relevant for AR9003, but also important for earlier hardware,
so it's better to just keep one common implementation.

9cc2f3e881 ath9k_hw: prevent a fast channel change after a rx DMA stuck issue
If the receive path gets stuck, a full hardware reset is necessary to
recover from it. If this happens during a scan, the whole scan might fail,
as each channel change bypasses the full reset sequence.
Fix this by resetting the fast channel change flag if stopping the
receive path fails.

This will reduce the number of error messages that look like this:
ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0x00000024 AR_DIAG_SW=0x40000020

ab0ed4aba8 rt2x00: Remove set_tim callback from PCI drivers
Using the set_tim callback without managing the DTIM count and the
broad- and multicast buffering in hw, fw or the driver results in wrong
DTIM count values being sent out in beacons. Since all PCI drivers
fetch new beacons periodically and hence get an updated TIM we can just
remove the set_tim callback from these.

The rt2x00 USB drivers don't update the beacon periodically and thus
rely on the set_tim callback to get a correct TIM for beacon
transmission. USB devices still suffer from the DTIM count being wrong
under some circumstances but removing the set_tim callback from these
would cause more harm then good.

Also, add a new driver flag to indicate if a driver has pre tbtt support
or not and implement the according behavior in rt2x00lib.

78e256c9a3 rt2x00: Convert rt2x00 to use threaded interrupts
Use threaded interrupts for all rt2x00 PCI devices.

This has several generic advantages:
- Reduce the time we spend in hard irq context
- Use non-atmic mac80211 functions for rx/tx

Furthermore implementing broad- and multicast buffering will be
much easier in process context while maintaining low latency and
updating the beacon just before transmission (pre tbtt interrupt)
can also be done in process context.

50e888eae2 rt2x00: Make rt2800_write_beacon only export to GPL
rt2800_write_beacon is the only function which uses
EXPORT_SYMBOL instead of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. All symbols
in rt2x00 should however use the GPL restricted export.

c965c74bbc rt2x00: Implement watchdog monitoring
Implement watchdog monitoring for USB devices (PCI support can
be added later). This will determine if URBs being uploaded to
the hardware are actually returning. Both rt2500usb and rt2800usb
have shown that URBs being uploaded can remain hanging without
being released by the hardware.
By using this watchdog, a queue can be reset when this occurs.
For rt2800usb it has been tested that the connection is preserved
even though this interruption.

223dcc2659 rt2x00: Fix vgc_level_reg handling
Currently vgc_level_reg and vgc_level are equal to eachother,
while the purpose of vgc_level_reg is the value last written
to the register and is remembered through link tuning resets.
The vgc_level is the currently active level, which is
reset during link tuning resets.

The usage of these variables depends on the drivers, some drivers
need both, while others need only one of the two.

d8147f9d9e rt2x00: Disable link tuning while scanning
While scanning the link tuner must be disabled. Otherwise
it will interfere with receiving all beacons for each channel
due to changing sensitivity levels.

27df2a9ce9 rt2x00: Rename CONFIG_DISABLE_LINK_TUNING
Rename CONFIG_DISABLE_LINK_TUNING to DRIVER_SUPPORT_LINK_TUNING
Link tuning support is not only based on EEPROM decisions, but
also if the device actually supports it.

Currently only rt2500usb doesn't support link tuning because
of hardware problems. But rt2800usb is also suspected of having
problems with link tuning.

7486192206 rt2x00: Convert AGC value from descriptor to RSSI (dBm)
The RSSI values in the RXWI descriptor aren't true RSSI
values. Instead they are more like the AGC values similar
to rt61pci. And as such, it needs the same conversion
before it can be passed to rt2x00lib/mac80211.

This requires the struct queue_entry to be passed to
rt2800_process_rxwi rather then the skb structure which
is contained in the queue_entry. This is required to
obtain the lna_gain information from the rt2x00_dev structure.

This fixes connection problems when using wpa_supplicant
which would try to connect to the worst AP's rather then the
best ones.
