commit 50ea05efaf3bed7dd34bcc2635a8b3f53bd0ccc1 upstream.
Currently mac80211 does not inform the driver of the session
block ack timeout when starting a rx aggregation session.
Drivers that manage the reorder buffer need to know this
parameter.
Seeing that there are now too many arguments for the
drv_ampdu_action() function, wrap them inside a structure.

ACPI / EC: Fix broken 64bit big-endian users of 'global_lock'
Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument,
when all it needs is a boolean pointer.
It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *'
instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient.
Over that bool takes just a byte.
That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit
updating the API. regmap core was also using
debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were
updated for that to be bool as well.

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.
This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.
The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted,
frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with
the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the

Author: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
Date: Wed Feb 20 11:33:00 2013 +0200
iwlwifi: disable 8K A-MSDU by default
Supporting 8K A-MSDU means that we need to allocate order 1
pages for every Rx packet. Even when there is no traffic.
This adds stress on the memory manager. The handling of
compound pages is also less trivial for the memory manager
and not using them will make the allocation code run faster
although I didn't really measure.
Eric also pointed out that having huge buffers with little
data in them is not very nice towards the TCP stack since
the truesize of the skb is huge. This doesn't allow TCP
to have a big Rx window.
See https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2167711/ for details.
Note that very few vendors will actually send A-MSDU.
Disable this feature by default.

and Joe Perches's "extern" removal from function prototypes
in header files.
John W. Linville says:
====================
Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work
in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the
addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement
and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications
to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices."
As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says:
"Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's
just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware
interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are
minor fixes or cleanups."
And also:
"Major changes are:
* throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and
optimising HTT layer (Michal)
* remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz)
* add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal)
* firmware htt statistics support (Kalle)
* fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek)
* fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi)
And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup."
For the wl12xx bits, Luca says:
"Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch
of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes
and other small improvements."
Along with that...
Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger
offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of
ath9k updates. As usual, there are a number of other small updates
from a variety of players as well.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern

extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as

If device was put into a sleep and system was restarted or module
reloaded, we have to wake device up before sending other commands.
Otherwise it will fail to start with Microcode error.

4965 version of Eric patch "iwl3945: better skb management in rx path".
It fixes several problems :
1) skb->truesize is underestimated.
We really consume PAGE_SIZE bytes for a fragment,
not the frame length.
2) 128 bytes of initial headroom is a bit low and forces reallocations.
3) We can avoid consuming a full page for small enough frames.

Steinar reported reallocations of skb->head with IPv6, leading to
a warning in skb_try_coalesce()
It turns out iwl3945 has several problems :
1) skb->truesize is underestimated.
We really consume PAGE_SIZE bytes for a fragment,
not the frame length.
2) 128 bytes of initial headroom is a bit low and forces reallocations.
