cb82a66d0f rndis_wlan: split getting current channel to separate function
Split getting current channel channel from hardware to separate function

ef96a84202 mac80211: Support ht-cap over-rides.
This implements ht-cap over-rides for mac80211 drivers.
HT may be disabled, making an /a/b/g/n station act like an
a/b/g station.  HT40 may be disabled forcing the station to
be HT20 even if the AP and local hardware support HT40.

MAX-AMSDU may be disabled.
AMPDU-Density may be increased.
AMPDU-Factor may be decreased.

This has been successfully tested with ath9k using patched
wpa_supplicant and iw.

7e7c8926b2 wireless: Support ht-capabilities over-rides.
This allows users to disable features such as HT, HT40,
and to modify the MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU settings for
drivers that support it.

The MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU features that may be disabled are
are reported in the phy-info netlink message as a mask.

Attemping to disable features that are not supported will
take no affect, but will not return errors.  This is to aid
backwards compatibility in user-space apps that may not be
clever enough to deal with parsing the the capabilities mask.

This patch only enables the infrastructure.  An additional
patch will enable the feature in mac80211.

dd76986b0e cfg80211/mac80211: Revert "move information element parsing logic to cfg80211"
No other driver ever ended up using this, and
the commit forgot to move the prototype so no
driver could have used it. Revert it, if any
driver shows up and needs it it can be moved
again, but until then it's more efficient to
have it in mac80211 where the only user is.

f2dc7989bf mac80211: minor cleanup to mesh state locking

9205fd9cca tg3: switch to build_skb() infrastructure
This is very similar to bnx2x conversion, but simpler since no special
alignement is required, so goal was not to reduce skb truesize.

Using build_skb() reduces cache line misses in the driver, since we
use cache hot skb instead of cold ones. Number of in-flight sk_buff
structures is lower, they are more likely recycled in SLUB caches
while still hot.

5e2afba4ec netfilter: possible unaligned packet header in ip_route_me_harder
This patch tries to fix the following issue in netfilter:
In ip_route_me_harder(), we invoke pskb_expand_head() that
rellocates new header with additional head room which can break
the alignment of the original packet header.

In one of my NAT test case, the NIC port for internal hosts is
configured with vlan and the port for external hosts is with
general configuration. If we ping an external "unknown" hosts from an
internal host, an icmp packet will be sent. We find that in
icmp_send()->...->ip_route_me_harder()->pskb_expand_head(), hh_len=18
and current headroom (skb_headroom(skb)) of the packet is 16. After
calling pskb_expand_head() the packet header becomes to be unaligned
and then our system (arch/tile) panics immediately.
