af_iucv: New socket option for setting IUCV MSGLIMITs
The SO_MSGLIMIT socket option modifies the message limit for new
IUCV communication paths.
The message limit specifies the maximum number of outstanding messages
that are allowed for connections. This setting can be lowered by z/VM
when an IUCV connection is established.
Expects an integer value in the range of 1 to 65535.
The default value is 65535.
The message limit must be set before calling connect() or listen()
for sockets.
If sockets are already connected or in state listen, changing the message
limit is not supported.
For reading the message limit value, unconnected sockets return the limit
that has been set or the default limit. For connected sockets, the actual
message limit is returned. The actual message limit is assigned by z/VM
for each connection and it depends on IUCV MSGLIMIT authorizations
specified for the z/VM guest virtual machine.

af_iucv: Support data in IUCV msg parameter lists (IPRMDATA)
The patch allows to send and receive data in the parameter list of an
iucv message.
The parameter list is an arry of 8 bytes that are used by af_iucv as
follows:
0..6 7 bytes for socket data and
7 1 byte to store the data length.
Instead of storing the data length directly, the difference
between 0xFF and the data length is used.
This convention does not interfere with the existing use of PRM
messages for shutting down the send direction of an AF_IUCV socket
(shutdown() operation). Data lenghts greater than 7 (or PRM message
byte 8 is less than 0xF8) denotes to special messages.
Currently, the special SEND_SHUTDOWN message is supported only.
To use IPRM messages, both communicators must set the IUCV_IPRMDATA
flag during path negotiation, i.e. in iucv_connect() and
path_pending().
To be compatible to older af_iucv implementations, sending PRM
messages is controlled by the socket option SO_IPRMDATA_MSG.
Receiving PRM messages does not depend on the socket option (but
requires the IUCV_IPRMDATA path flag to be set).
Sending/Receiving data in the parameter list improves performance for
small amounts of data by reducing message_completion() interrupts and
memory copy operations.

there's no need to process all beacons in software all the time

This patch implements the "best possible" beacon filtering in

all requested information elements, and distinguish vendor IEs
by their OUI.
In the future, we will add nl80211 API for userspace to request
information elements and vendor IE OUIs to watch -- drivers can
then implement the best they can do while software implements
it fully.
It is unclear whether or not this actually saves CPU time, but
the data is all in the cache already so it should be fairly
cheap. The additional _testing_, however, has great benefit;
Without this, and on hardware that doesn't implement beacon
filtering, wrong assumptions about, for example, scan result

ath9k: reset after PCI FATAL/PERR interrupts
ath9k_hw_getisr() doesn't appear to set anything in the status mask for
PCI FATAL or PERR interrupts (AR_INTR_SYNC_HOST1_FATAL/PERR), which
the open-source HAL seems to do. This means that the card isn't reset
after these interrupts.
This patch seems to fix a problem where the wireless drops out with an
"ath9k: received PCI FATAL interrupt" in dmesg after some time; the
hardware is an AR5416 in an ASUS WL-500W running 2.6.28.7 (OpenWRT) and
compat-wireless 2009-03-31.

This patch takes care of outstanding TODOs:
/* TODO: some devices have 4 more free slots for rx keys */
Now the driver can utilize all available key slots instead of just 4.
Obviously, this helps most in AP/IBSS(/MESH) mode, when
we have to use more different keys.
