mwifiex: hold proper locks when accessing ra_list / bss_prio lists
Not locking ra_list when dequeuing packets creates race conditions.
When adding a packet 'tx_pkts_queued' is modified before setting
highest_priority_queue. If in-between the main loop starts, it will
see a packet queued (tx_pkts_queued > 0) but will not find it, since
max prio is not set yet. Depending on the scheduling, the thread
trying to add the packet could complete and restore the situation.
But this is not something to rely on.
Another race condition exists, if a new packet, exceeding current
max prio is added. If concurrently a packet is dequeued, the newly
set max prio will be overwritten with the value of the dequeued
packet. This can occur, because selecting a packet and modifying
the max prio is not atomic. The result in an infinite loop unless,
a new packet is added that has at least the priority of the hidden
packet.
Same applies to bss_prio_tbl. Forward iteration is no proper
lock-free technique and provides no protection from calls to
list_del. Although BSS are currently not added/removed dynamically,
this must not be the case in the future. Hence always hold proper
locks when accessing those lists.

mwifiex: fix infinite loop by removing NO_PKT_PRIO_TID
Using NO_PKT_PRIO_TID and tx_pkts_queued to check for an empty
state, can lead to a contradictory state, resulting in an
infinite loop. Currently queueing and dequeuing of packets is
not synchronized, and can happen concurrently. While tx_pkts_queued
is incremented when adding a packet, max prio is set to NO_PKT when
the WMM list is empty. If a packet is added right after the check
for empty, but before setting max prio to NO_PKT, that packet is
trapped and creates an infinite loop.
Because of the new packet, tx_pkts_queued is at least 1, indicating
wmm lists are not empty. Opposing that max prio is NO_PKT, which
means "skip this wmm queue, it has no packets". The infinite loop
results, because the main loop checks the wmm lists for not empty
via tx_pkts_queued, but for dequeing it uses max_prio to see if it
can skip current list. This will never end, unless a new packet is
added which will restore max prio to the level of the trapped packet.
The solution here is to rely on tx_pkts_queued solely for checking
wmm queue to be empty, and drop the NO_PKT define. It does not
address the locking issue.

Fix it by increasing cmd_pending when a cmd is queued into

brcmfmac: use skb_cow() in brcmf_sdbrcm_txpkt() to assure alignment
In brcmf_sdbrcm_txpkt() a new packet is allocated and used to transmit
to firmware freeing up the original packet. However, that packet is
still referenced in firmware-signalling so this would result in a
double free. Using skb_cow() avoids this as the packet reference is
unchanged.

"I'm seeing a problem with the carl driver. If I change channels
repeatedly on the 2.4ghz band, monitoring (e.g. tcpdump) will

<http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=

according to Adrian Chadd is: "... notoriously unreliable and
really only fully debugged on some very later chips."

mwifiex: use fw_status register to wake up PCIe card
FW can be woken up even by accessing device registers; we need
not explicitily enable interrupts for doing this. Future PCIe
devices will not be woken up by writing to host registers.
This patch enables driver to wake up device by reading FW status
register.
Also devices with sleep cookie enabled need some more time before
proceeding with processing. Handle this by adding a delay loop.

b43: N-PHY: use more bits for offset in RSSI calibration
When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers
bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example:
offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j];
formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat
number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes:
0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25.
This code was introduced in

b43: A fix for DMA transmission sequence errors
Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.
This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.
Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.
