iwlwifi: don't double free the interrupt in failure path

2012-09-19T00:43:23Z

When the driver can't get the HW ready, we would release the interrupt twice which made the kernel complain loudly. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Brian Cockrell Tested-by: Brian Cockrell Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

rtlwifi: rtl8192ce: Log message that B_CUT device may not work

2012-09-12T18:15:31Z

There are a number of problems that occur for the latest version of the Realtek RTL8188CE device with the in-kernel driver. These include selection of the wrong firmware, and system lockup. A full fix is known, but is too invasive for inclusion in stable. This patch fixes the problem with loading the wrong firmware, and logs a message that the device may not work for kernels 3.6 and older.

ath9k: make PA linearization optional, disabled by default and fix checks

2012-09-10T18:42:43Z

Some checks for PA linearization support checked ATH9K_HW_CAP_PAPRD and some used the EEPROM ops, leading to issues in tx power handling, since those two can be out of sync. Disable the feature by default, since it has been reported that it can cause damage to the rx path under some circumstances. It can now be enabled for testing via debugfs.

brcmsmac: fix mismatch in number of custom regulatory rules

2012-09-10T18:38:03Z

The driver provides the cfg80211 regulatory framework with a set of custom rules. However, there was a mismatch in number of rules and the actual rules provided. This resulted in setting an invalid power level: ieee80211 phy0: brcms_ops_config: change channel 13 ieee80211 phy0: brcms_ops_config: Error setting power_level (8758364) Closer look in cfg80211 regulatory blurb showed following bogus rule: cfg80211: 0 KHz - -60446948 KHz @ 875836468 KHz), (875836468 mBi, 875836468 mBm) Cc: Seth Forshee Reviewed-by: Piotr Haber Reviewed-by: Pieter-Paul Giesberts Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel Reviewed-by: Seth Forshee Signed-off-by: John W.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Please pull these fixes intended for 3.6. There are more commits here than I would like -- I got a bit behind while I was stalking Steven Rostedt in San Diego last week... I'll slow it down after this! There are a couple of pulls here. One is from Johannes: "Please pull (according to the below information) to get a few fixes. * a fix to properly disconnect in the driver when authentication or association fails * a fix to prevent invalid information about mesh paths being reported to userspace * a memory leak fix in an nl80211 error path" The other comes via Gustavo: "A few updates for the 3.6 kernel. There are two btusb patches to add more supported devices through the new USB_VENDOR_AND_INTEFACE_INFO() macro and another one that add a new device id for a Sony Vaio laptop, one fix for a user-after-free and, finally, two patches from Vinicius to fix a issue in SMP pairing." Along with those... Arend van Spriel provides a fix for a use-after-free bug in brcmfmac. Daniel Drake avoids a hang by not trying to touch the libertas hardware duing suspend if it is already powered-down. Felix Fietkau provides a batch of ath9k fixes that adress some potential problems with power settings, as well as a fix to avoid a potential interrupt storm. Gertjan van Wingerde provides a register-width fix for rt2x00, and a rt2x00 fix to prevent incorrectly detecting the rfkill status. He also provides a device ID patch. Hante Meuleman gives us three brcmfmac fixes, one that properly initializes a command structure, one that fixes a race condition that could lose usb requests, and one that removes some log spam. Marc Kleine-Budde offers an rt2x00 fix for a voltage setting on some specific devices. Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan sent an ath9k fix to avoid a crash related to using timers that aren't allocated when 2 wire bluetooth coexistence hardware is in use. Sergei Poselenov changes rt2800usb to do some validity checking for received packets, avoiding crashes on an ARM Soc. Stone Piao gives us an mwifiex fix for an incorrectly set skb length value for a command buffer. All of these are localized to their specific drivers, and relatively small. The power-related patches from Felix are bigger than I would like, but I merged them in consideration of their isolation to ath9k and the sensitive nature of power settings in wireless devices. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
