43b6329f98 net: phy: use network device in phy_print_status
phy_print_status() currently uses dev_name(&phydev->dev) which will
usually result in printing something along those lines for Device Tree
aware drivers:

libphy: f0b60000.etherne:0a - Link is Down
libphy: f0ba0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 1000/Full

This is not terribly useful for network administrators or users since we
expect a network interface name to be able to correlate link events with
interfaces. Update phy_print_status() to use netdev_info() with
phydev->attached_dev which is the backing network device for our PHY
device. The leading dash is removed since netdev_info() prefixes the
messages with "<interface>: " already.

3dca147199 target: Simplify command completion by removing CMD_T_FAILED flag
The CMD_T_FAILED flag is set used in one place to record the result of a
trivial test, and it is only tested once, few lines later.  We might as
well make the code simpler and easier to read by directly doing the test
of "success" where we want to use it.

92d8f766ec sfc: Rewrite adjustment of PPS event in a clearer way
There is substantial latency in generation and handling of PPS events
from the NIC, which we have to correct for before passing a host
timestamp to the PPS subsystem.  We compare clocks with the MC,
giving us two offsets to subtract from the timestamp generated by
pps_get_ts():

(a) Time from the last good sync (where we got host and NIC timestamps
    for nearly the same instant) to the time we called pps_get_ts()
(b) Time from NIC top of second to the last good sync

We currently calculate (a) + (b) in a quite confusing way.
Instead, calculate (a) completely, then add (b) to it.

9ed230bcba mwifiex: pass ieee80211_vht_cap to mwifiex_fill_vht_cap_tlv
This patch changes mwifiex_fill_vht_cap_tlv function to pass
struct ieee80211_vht_cap instead of mwifiex_ie_types_vhtcap
so that it can be used generically.

daeb5bb482 mwifiex: AMPDU support for TDLS link
This patch adds AMPDU support for TDLS link. We have set 11n
capabilities including AMPDU parameters during ENABLE_LINK.
We set a variable in RA list to indicate this as TDLS link.
This patch uses these capabilities to know if AMPDU is allowed
on TDLS link and enables AMPDU aggregation for TX and RX reording
support for RA list for this peer.

d63bf5e5e0 mwifiex: tdls related handling for data packets addressed to TDLS peer
1. If data packet is addressed to TDLS peer for which link is
established, mark these packets with TDLS flag so that FW can
send them on direct link instead of sending via AP.
2. If data packet is addressed to TDLS peer and TDLS setup is
underway, move these packets to TDLS queue.
3. If this packet is TDLS setup packet, do not block it.

56bd24a18e mwifiex: provision for holding and restoring packets during TDLS setup
While TDLS link is being setup, few packets from this station to
peer station may be buffered at AP. It may happen that once TDLS
link is setup, packets sent from station to peer on direct link
get delivered before traffic from AP arrives at peer station.
This results into packet reordering issue at peer station.

To avoid this, we hold data packets destined to TDLS peer during
TDLS setup. These packets are moved to temperory TDLS TX queue.
Upon successful TDLS setup, they are moved to RA list created for
this peer. Upon failure, packets are moved back to AP's RA list
for that particular TID.
