74e4dbfd57 mac80211: make TX LED handling independent of fragmentation
This just prepares for passing the entire fragment
list to the driver. No significant changes, but the
TX throughput is calculated slightly differently
now and we blink only once for each MSDU.

252b86c432 mac80211: use skb list for fragments
We are currently linking the skbs by using skb->next
directly. This works, but the preferred way is to use
a struct sk_buff_head instead. That also prepares for
passing that to drivers directly.

While at it I noticed we calculate the duration for
fragments twice -- remove one of them.

The wireless-regdb now has support for mapping a country to

so we can provide that hint to drivers. This will later be
used by code for processing DFS in a way that meets the
criteria for the DFS region the country belongs to.

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.

06ba7ce223 batman-adv: use unregister_netdevice() when softif_create fails
When entering softif_create(), the rtnl lock has already been acquired
by store_mesh_iface().
(store_mesh_iface() -> hardif_enable_interface() -> softif_create)

In case of an error, we should therefore call unregister_netdevice()
instead of unregister_netdev().

unregister_netdev() tries to acquire the rtnl lock itself and deadlocks
in this situation. unregister_netdevice() assumes that the rtnl lock
is already been held.

48100bac89 batman-adv: create a common substructure for tt_global/local_entry
Several functions in the translation table management code assume that the
tt_global_entry and tt_local_entry structures have the same initial fields such
as 'addr' and 'hash_entry'. To improve the code readability and to avoid
mistakes in later changes, a common substructure that substitute the shared
fields has been introduced (struct tt_common_entry).

Thanks to this modification, it has also been possible to slightly reduce the
code length by merging some functions like compare_ltt/gtt() and
tt_local/global_hash_find()

d099c2c541 batman-adv: directly write tt entries without buffering
When the translation tables (global and local) are written for debugfs,
it is not neccesary to allocate a buffer, we can directly use
seq_printf() to print them out.

This might actually be safer if the table changes between size
calculation and traversal, and we can't estimate the required size
wrong.

c90681b850 batman-adv: fixed hash functions type to uint32_t instead of int
There are two reasons for this fix:
- the result of choose_orig() and vis_choose() is an index and therefore it can't
  be negative. Hence it is correct to make the return type unsigned too.

- sizeof(int) may not be the same on ALL the architectures. Since we plan to use
  choose_orig() as DHT hash function, we need to guarantee that, given the same
  argument, the result is the same. Then it is correct to explicitly express
  the size of the return type (and the second argument). Since the expected
  length is currently 4, uint32_t is the most convenient choice.

get_orig_node() tries to retrieve an orig_node object based on a mac address
and creates it if not present. This is not the wanted behaviour in the
translation table code as we don't want to create new orig_code objects but
expect a NULL pointer if the object does not exist.

9cc20b268a ipv4: fix redirect handling
commit f39925dbde (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in
inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling.

It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes
were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats
not true.

commit 7cc9150ebe (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix
this but solution was not complete. (It fixed only one route)

So we must lookup existing routes (including different TOS values) and
call check_peer_redir() on them.

88d5346512 mac80211: memory leak in mesh_queue_preq()
We recently introduced a return here, but we need to call kfree
first.

5e2e05de55 mac80211: use kfree_skb() instead of kfree()
sk_buff structs should be freed using kfree_skb().

This was introduced recently in 029458212 "mac80211: Save probe
response data for bss".

a5f69d94d8 mac80211: Get rid of search loop for rate group index
Finding the group index for a specific rate is done by looping through
all groups and returning if the correct one is found. This code is
called for each tx'ed frame and thus it makes sense to reduce its
runtime.

Do this by calculating the group index by this formula based on the SGI
and HT40 flags as well as the stream number:

idx = (HT40 * 2 * MINSTREL_MAX_STREAMS) +
      (SGI * MINSTREL_MAX_STREAMS) +
      (streams - 1)

Hence, the groups are ordered by th HT40 flag first, then by the SGI
flag and afterwards by the number of used streams.

This should reduce the runtime of minstrel_ht_get_group_idx
considerable.

b79296beeb mac80211: Check rate->idx before rate->count
The drivers are not required to fill in rate->count if rate->idx is set
to -1. Hence, we should first check rate->idx before accessing
rate->count.
