Vendor driver rtl8188C_8192C_8192D_usb_linux_v3.4.2_3727.20120404 introduced
new firmware for these chips. The code try for the new file, and fall back to
the original firmware if the new file is not available.

These two flags are used for the same purpose, just
combine them into a no-ir flag to annotate no initiating
radiation is allowed.
Old userspace sending either flag will have it treated as
the no-ir flag. To be considerate to older userspace we
also send both the no-ir flag and the old no-ibss flags.
Newer userspace will have to be aware of older kernels.
Update all places in the tree using these flags with the

This driver uses a number of macros to get and set various fields in the
RX and TX descriptors. To work correctly, a u8 pointer to the descriptor
must be used; however, in some cases a descriptor structure pointer is used
instead. In addition, a duplicated statement is removed.

All of the rtlwifi drivers have an error in the routine that tests if
the data is "special". If it is, the subsequant transmission will be
at the lowest rate to enhance reliability. The 16-bit quantity is
big-endian, but was being extracted in native CPU mode. One of the
effects of this bug is to inhibit association under some conditions
as the TX rate is too high.
Based on suggestions by Joe Perches, the entire routine is rewritten.
One of the local headers contained duplicates of some of the ETH_P_XXX
definitions. These are deleted.

kmalloc on efuse_word can return null, leading to free'ing of
elements in efuse_word on the error exit path even though it has not
been allocated. Instead, don't free the elements of efuse_word if
kmalloc failed.
Also, kmalloc of any of the arrays in efuse_word[] can also fail,
leading to undefined contents in the remaining elements leading to
problems when free'ing these elements later on. So kzalloc efuse_word
to ensure the kfree on the remaining elements won't cause breakage.

Just some minor conflicts between the wireless-next changes
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.

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

The present build configuration for the rtlwifi family of drivers will
fail under two known conditions:
(1) If rtlwifi is selected without selecting any of the dependent drivers,
there are errors in the build.
(2) If the PCI drivers are built into the kernel and the USB drivers are modules,
or vice versa, there are missing globals.
The first condition is fixed by never building rtlwifi unless at least one
of the device drivers is selected. The second failure is fixed by splitting
the PCI and USB codes out of rtlwifi, and creating their own mini drivers.
If the drivers that use them are modules, they will also be modules.
Although a number of files are touched by this patch, only Makefile and Kconfig
have undergone significant changes. The only modifications to the other files
were to export entry points needed by the new rtl_pci and rtl_usb units, or to
rename two variables that had names that were likely to cause namespace collisions.

Firstly, the work queue in question was not initialized. Secondly,
the callback routine used by this queue is contained within the
file used for PCI devices. As a result, it is not available for
architectures without PCI hardware.
