cfg80211: stop tracking authenticated state

To track authenticated state seems to have been
a design mistake in cfg80211. It is possible to
have out of band authentication (FT), tracking
multiple authentications caused more problems
than it ever helped, and the implementation in
mac80211 is too complex.

Remove all this complexity, and let userspace
do whatever it wants to, mac80211 can deal with
that just fine. Association is still tracked of
course, but authentication no longer is. Local
auth state changes are thus no longer of value,
so ignore them completely.

This will also help implement SAE -- asking the
driver to do an authentication is now almost
equivalent to sending an authentication frame,
with the exception of shared key authentication
which is still handled completely.

ath6kl: fix compiler warning in ath6kl_init_hw_params()

Both Luis and John reported that they see a compiler warning:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/init.c: In function 'ath6kl_init_hw_params':
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/init.c:1377:26: warning: ‘hw’
may be used uninitialized in this function

Oddly enough I have never seen it. But AFAICT the code is correct and
hw is not used uninitalized so add uninitialized_var() to inform that to
the compiler.

rtlwifi: Convert to asynchronous firmware load

This patch addresses a kernel bugzilla report and two recent mail threads.

The kernel bugzilla report is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42632,
which reports a udev timeout on boot.

The first mail thread, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/
linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html) was for a WARNING that occurs after a
suspend/resume cycle for rtl8192cu.

The scond mail thread (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132655490826766&w=2)
concerned changes in udev that break drivers that delay while firmware is loaded
on modprobe.

This patch converts all rtlwifi-based drivers to use the asynchronous firmware
loading mechanism. Drivers rtl8192ce, rtl8192cu and rtl8192de share a common
callback routine. Driver rtl8192se needs different handling of the firmware,
thus it has its own code.

Johannes Berg [Sat, 28 Jan 2012 16:30:50 +0000 (08:30 -0800)]
iwlwifi: fix uCode event tracing

Fix multiple bugs in event tracing:

1) If you enable uCode tracing with the device down,
   it will still attempt to access the device and
   continuously log "MAC is in deep sleep!" errors.
   Fix this by only starting logging when the device
   is actually alive.

2) Now you can set the flag when the device is down,
   but logging doesn't happen when you bring it up.
   To fix that, start logging when the device comes
   alive. This means we don't log before -- we could
   do that but I don't need it right now.

3) For some reason we read the error instead of the
   event log -- use the right pointer.

4) Optimise SRAM reading of event log header.

5) Fix reading write pointer == capacity, which can
   happen due to racy SRAM access

6) Most importantly: fix an error where we would try
   to read WAY too many events (like 2^32-300) when
   we read the wrap counter before it is updated by
   the uCode -- this does happen in practice and will
   cause the driver to hang the machine.

7) Finally, change the timer to 10ms instead of 100ms
   as 100ms is too slow to capture all data with a
   normal event log and with 100ms the log will wrap
   multiple times before we have a chance to read it.
