4777be4163 mac80211: Start implementing QoS support for mesh interfaces
In order to support QoS in mesh, we need to assign queue mapping only
after the next hop has been resolved, both for forwarded and locally
originated frames.  Also, now that this is fixed, remove the XXX comment
in ieee80211_select_queue().

Also, V-Shy Ho reported that the queue mapping was not being applied to
the forwarded frame (fwd_skb instead of skb).  Fixed that as well.

cd0b8d89c7 mac80211: further optimise buffer expiry timer
Juuso optimised the timer to not run all the
time in commit 3393a608c4.
However, after that it will still run once
more even if all frames just expired. Fixing
that also makes the function return value a
little clearer in the process.

Also, while at it, change the return value
to bool (instead of int).

64ed5cf013 minstrel_ht: fix Open BA session request floods
Minstrel HT tries very hard to establish a BA session with

693828fe92 mac80211: stop tx before doing hw config and rate update
The assumption is that during the hw config, transmission was
already stopped by mac80211. Sometimes the AP can be switching
b/w the ht modes due to intolerant or etc where STA is in
the middle of transmission. In such scenario, buffer overflow
was observed at driver side. And also before updating the rate
control, the frames are continued to xmited with older rates.
This patch ensures that the frames are always xmitted with
updated rates and avoid buffer overflow.

cfee66b0f9 mac80211: Stop forwarding mesh traffic when tx queues are full
Tx flow control for non-mesh modes of operation only needs to act on the
net device queues: when the hardware queues are full we stop accepting
traffic from the net device.  In mesh, however, we also need to stop
forwarding traffic.  This patch checks the hardware queues before
attempting to forward a mesh frame.

eac03e3819 cfg80211: hold reg_mutex when updating regulatory
The function wiphy_update_regulatory() uses the static variable
last_request and thus needs to be called with reg_mutex held.
This is the case for all users in reg.c, but the function was
exported for use by wiphy_register(), from where it is called
without the lock being held.

Fix this by making wiphy_update_regulatory() private and introducing
regulatory_update() as a wrapper that acquires and holds the lock.

f4b34b550a cfg80211/nl80211: Indicate roaming feature capability to userspace.
When the rssi of the current AP drops, both wpa_supplicant and the
firmware may do a background scan to find a better AP and try to
associate. Since firmware based roaming is faster, inform
wpa_supplicant to avoid roaming and let the firmware decide to
roam if necessary.

For fullmac drivers like ath6kl, it is just enough to provide the
ESSID and the firmware will decide on the BSSID. Since it is not
possible to do pre-auth during roaming for fullmac drivers, the
wpa_supplicant needs to completely disconnect with the old AP and
reconnect with the new AP. This consumes lot of time and it is
better to leave the roaming decision to the firmware.

169073db44 tipc: Prevent broadcast link stalling when another node fails
Ensure that broadcast link messages that have not been acknowledged
by a newly failed node do not get an implied acknowledgement until the
failed node is removed from the broadcast link's map of reachable nodes.

Previously, a race condition allowed a new broadcast link message to be
sent after the implicit acknowledgement processing was completed, but
before the map of reachable nodes was updated, resulting in the message
having an expected acknowledgement count that required the failed node
to explicitly acknowledge the message. Since this would never occur
the new message would remain in the broadcast link's transmit queue
forever, eventually causing the link to become congested and "stall".
Delaying the implicit acknowledgement processing until after the update
of the map of reachable nodes eliminates this race condition and prevents
stalling.
