net: Avoid enqueuing skb for default qdiscs
dev_queue_xmit enqueue's a skb and calls qdisc_run which
dequeue's the skb and xmits it. In most cases, the skb that
is enqueue'd is the same one that is dequeue'd (unless the
queue gets stopped or multiple cpu's write to the same queue
and ends in a race with qdisc_run). For default qdiscs, we
can remove the redundant enqueue/dequeue and simply xmit the
skb since the default qdisc is work-conserving.
The patch uses a new flag - TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS to identify the
default fast queue. The controversial part of the patch is
incrementing qlen when a skb is requeued - this is to avoid
checks like the second line below:
+ } else if ((q->flags & TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS) && !qdisc_qlen(q) &&
>> !q->gso_skb &&
+ !test_and_set_bit(__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING, &q->state)) {

This patch fixes a case in the transmit completion code which was resulting
in pktgen hanging at the end of a run. The cause is due to the fact that
the ->cb[] area of an skb cannot be used in a network driver's transmit
path, as that area belongs to the network protocol. Pktgen hangs, as it
sends out the same packet multiple times, and vxge's use of this area of
the skb for a temporary list can only add the packet to the temporary list
once (while it may be on the queue many times). The fix is to remove this
abuse of skb->cb[]. Instead, skb pointers are placed into a temporary
stack array, and then free outside of the tx lock. This retains the smp
optimization of doing dev_kfree_skb() outside of the tx lock.

ixgbe: allow vlan egress priority mapping in DCB mode
The skb priority to vlan-qos egress mapping that can be configured using
set_egress_map with vconfig is overriden by the DCB code in the driver.
This patch allows this existing mechanism to work and will increase the
configuration flexibility of DCB mode on Linux.
A hierarchy of configuration is:
1. Modifies the ixgbe_select_queue() routine for DCB mode to return the
priority value from the VLAN tag. It will normally be zero, unless the egress
priority map has modified it. This will get packets into the correct queue and
result in the queue_mapping field being set correctly.
2. Any tc filter which modifies queue_mapping will be honored, as the filters
are handled after the vlan egress map is handled.

mac80211: Retry probe request few times
Retry 5 times (chosen arbitary ), before assuming
that station is out of range.
Fixes frequent disassociations while connected to weak,
and sometimes even strong access points.

cfg80211: lower dynamic PS timeout to 100ms
The default of 500ms is pretty high, and leads
to the device being awake at least 50% of the
time under such light traffic conditions as a
simple 1 second interval ping. Reduce to just
100ms -- it should have a similar effect while
providing a better sleep time.

iwlwifi: remove usage of orig_flags
This is a private flag, internal to cfg80211. cfg80211
will set orig_* stuff internally upon wiphy registration,
drivers do not need to muck with it.

cfg80211: enable country IE support to all cfg80211 drivers
Since the bss is always set now once we are connected, if the
bss has its own information element we refer to it and pass that
instead of relying on mac80211's parsing.
Now all cfg80211 drivers get country IE support, automatically and
we reduce the call overhead that we had on mac80211 which called this
upon every beacon and instead now call this only upon a successfull
connection by a STA on cfg80211.
