Patch "af_rose/x25: Sanity check the maximum user frame size"
(commit 83e0bbcbe2) from Alan Cox got
locking wrong. If we bail out due to user frame size being too large,
we must unlock the socket beforehand.

Paul Moore 50b2ff1bc4 netlabel: Always remove the correct address selector
The NetLabel address selector mechanism has a problem where it can get
mistakenly remove the wrong selector when similar addresses are used.  The
problem is caused when multiple addresses are configured that have different
netmasks but the same address, e.g. 127.0.0.0/8 and 127.0.0.0/24.  This patch
fixes the problem.

Jianjun kong 3f9738f73a 8139too: fix HW initial flow
While ifconfig eth0 up kernel calls open() of 8139 driver(8139too.c).
In rtl8139_hw_start() of rtl8139_open(), 8139 driver enable RX before
setting up the DMA buffer address. In this interval where RX was
enabled and DMA buffer address is not yet set up, any incoming
broadcast packet would be send to a strange physical address:
0x003e8800 which is the default value of DMA buffer address.
Unfortunately, this address is used by Linux kernel. So kernel panics.
This patch fix it by setting up DMA buffer address before RX enabled
and everything is fine even under broadcast packets attack.

Hendrik Brueckner 3fa6b5adbe af_iucv: Fix race when queuing incoming iucv messages
AF_IUCV runs into a race when queuing incoming iucv messages
and receiving the resulting backlog.

If the Linux system is under pressure (high load or steal time),
the message queue grows up, but messages are not received and queued
onto the backlog queue. In that case, applications do not
receive any data with recvmsg() even if AF_IUCV puts incoming
messages onto the message queue.

The race can be avoided if the message queue spinlock in the
message_pending callback is spreaded across the entire callback
function.

Reinette Chatre df833b1d73 iwlwifi: DMA fixes
A few issues wrt DMA were uncovered when using the driver with swiotlb.
- driver should not use memory after it has been mapped
- iwl3945's RX queue management cannot use all of iwlagn because
  the size of the RX buffer is different. Revert back to using
  iwl3945 specific routines that map/unmap memory.
- no need to "dma_syn_single_range_for_cpu" followed by pci_unmap_single,
  we can just call pci_unmap_single initially
- only map the memory area that will be used by device. this is especially
  relevant to the mapping of iwl_cmd. we should not map the entire
  structure because the meta data at the beginning of structure contains
  the address to be used later for unmapping. If the address to be used for
  unmapping is stored in mapped data it creates a problem.
- ensure that _if_ memory needs to be modified after it is mapped that we
  call _sync_single_for_cpu first, and then release it back to device with
  _sync_single_for_device
- we mapped the wrong length of data for host commands, with mapped length
  differing with length provided to device, fix that.

Thanks to Jason Andryuk <jandryuk@gmail.com> for significant bisecting

When debugging TX issues it is helpful to know the seq nr of the
frame being transmitted. The seq nr is printed as part of ucode's
log informing us which frame is being processed. Having this information
printed in driver log makes it easy to match activities between driver
and firmware.

Also make possible to print TX flags directly. These are already printed
as part of entire TX command, but having it printed directly in cpu format
makes it easier to look at.

Matt Carlson 624f8e5082 tg3: Allow screaming interrupt detection
The tg3 driver's ISR is coded to accept interrupts as its own if the
status block tag does not equal the last tag the driver has seen.  The
last_tag field is updated from tg3_poll.  In a screaming interrupt
situation from another device sharing tg3's IRQ, tg3_poll does not get
a chance to be called, so the last_tag will always be out of sync with
the status block tag.  Consequently, the driver will continually
declare the screaming interrupts as its own, thus thwarting the
screaming interrupt detection logic.

This patch solves the problem by creating a new last_irq_tag member and
recording the status block tag in the ISR.  The ISR then checks the
last_irq_tag for interrupt ownership.

Many thanks to John Marvin for the detailed bug report and analysis and
Michael Chan for the bugfix.

Johannes Berg 7e0986c17f mac80211: fix basic rate bitmap calculation
"mac80211: fix basic rates setting from association response"
introduced a copy/paste error.

Unfortunately, this not just leads to wrong data being passed
to the driver but is remotely exploitable for some hardware or
driver combinations.

Kalle Valo ad935687db mac80211: fix beacon loss detection after scan
Currently beacon loss detection triggers after a scan. A probe request
is sent and a message like this is printed to the log:

wlan0: beacon loss from AP 00:12:17:e7:98:de - sending probe request

But in fact there is no beacon loss, the beacons are just not received
because of the ongoing scan. Fix it by updating last_beacon after
the scan has finished.

Jouni Malinen d91c01c757 nl80211: Make nl80211_send_mlme_event() atomic
One of the code paths sending deauth/disassoc events ends up calling
this function with rcu_read_lock held, so we must use GFP_ATOMIC in
allocation routines.

This patch fixes a hang on resume when the filesystem is not
available and request_firmware blocks.

However, the device does not accept the firmware on resume.
and it will exit with:

> firmware part 1 upload failed (-71).

Remove this unused Kconfig variable, which Intel apparently once
promised to make use of but never did.
