Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next

John W. Linville says:

====================
Please pull this batch of wireless updates intended for 3.15!

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"This has a whole bunch of bugfixes for things that went into -next
previously as well as some other bugfixes I didn't want to rush into
3.14 at this point. The rest of it is some cleanups and a few small
features, the biggest of which is probably Janusz's regulatory DFS CAC
time code."

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"One more pull request to 3.15. This is mostly and bug fix pull request, it
contains several fixes and clean up all over the tree, plus some small new
features."

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"This is the NFC pull request for 3.15. With this one we have:

- Support for ISO 15693 a.k.a. NFC vicinity a.k.a. Type 5 tags. ISO
15693 are long range (1 - 2 meters) vicinity tags/cards. The kernel
now supports those through the NFC netlink and digital APIs.

- Support for TI's trf7970a chipset. This chipset relies on the NFC
digital layer and the driver currently supports type 2, 4A and 5 tags.

- Support for NXP's pn544 secure firmare download. The pn544 C3 chipsets
relies on a different firmware download protocal than the C2 one. We
now support both and use the right one depending on the version we
detect at runtime.

- Support for 4A tags from the NFC digital layer.

- A bunch of cleanups and minor fixes from Axel Lin and Thierry Escande."

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"We were sending a host command while the mutex wasn't held. This
led to hard-to-catch races."

And...

"I have a fix for a "merge damage" which is not really a merge
damage: it enables scheduled scan which has been disabled in
wireless.git. Since you merged wireless.git into wireless-next.git,
this can now be fixed in wireless-next.git.

Besides this, Alex made a workaround for a hardware bug. This fix
allows us to consume less power in S3. Arik and Eliad continue to
work on D0i3 which is a run-time power saving feature. Eliad also
contributes a few bits to the rate scaling logic to which Eyal adds his
own contribution. Avri dives deep in the power code - newer firmware
will allow to enable power save in newer scenarios. Johannes made a few
clean-ups. I have the regular amount of BT Coex boring stuff. I disable
uAPSD since we identified firmware bugs that cause packet loss. One
thing that do stand out is the udev event that we now send when the
FW asserts. I hope it will allow us to debug the FW more easily."

Also included is one last iwlwifi pull for a build breakage fix...

For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"Michal now did some optimisations and was able to improve throughput by
100 Mbps on our MIPS based AP135 platform. Chun-Yeow added some
workarounds to be able to better use ad-hoc mode. Ben improved log
messages and added support for MSDU chaining. And, as usual, also some
smaller fixes."

Beyond that...

Andrea Merello continues his rtl8180 refactoring, in preparation for
a long-awaited rtl8187 driver. We get a new driver (rsi) for the
RS9113 chip, from Fariya Fatima. And, of course, we get the usual
round of updates for ath9k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, wil6210, etc. as well.

Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next

John W. Linville says:

====================
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"This time, I have a number of small fixes and improvements, and those
are fairly straight-forward. More interesting changes come from Luca
with some preparations for the CSA work, mostly around interface/channel
combinations checking. One other possibly interesting change is a small
one by myself to add NAPI support back to mac80211, which can help
improve TCP behaviour through GRO."

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"This is our first pull request for 3.15, the main feature here is the addition of
the privacy feature for low energy devices. Other than that we have a bunch of small
improvements, fixes, and clean ups all over the tree."

And...

"Another pull request to 3.15. Here we have the second part of the LE private
feature, the LE auto-connect feature and improvements to the power off
procedures. The rest are small improvements, clean up, and fixes."

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"I have here a whole bunch of various things. Trivial cleanups,
debugfs handlers and new stuff for the new generation of devices
along with new capabilities for monitor mode. We also have support
for power save for dual interface mode, but that is not supported by
the firmware currently available."

And for the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"For ath10k Alexander did some cleanup to PCI error cases and switched
ath10k to use pci_enable_msi_range(). Michal implemented AP CSA support
and sta_rc_update() operation. I enabled firmware "STA quick kickout"
functionality for faster detection of disappeared clients.

Also there are lots of small fixes to everywhere from various people."

I pulled the wireless tree to avoid some merge conflicts, and I
reverted the staging patch that I had mistakenly merged previously.
Along with that, mwifiex, brcmfmac, wil6210, ath9k, and a few other
drivers get their usual round of updates. Also notable is the addition
of yet another driver in the rtlwifi family.

...

I have amended this commit request to correct the build problems in
staging, including a warning added to one of the staging drivers by
the wireless-next tree. I also included a fix from Larry Finger to
address an issue found in rtl8723be by Dan Carpenter and smatch.

ath9k: Remove ath9k rate control

There is no benefit in retaining the legacy rate control module
in the driver codebase.

It is known to be buggy and has less than optimal performance
in real-world environments compared with minstrel. The only
reason that it was kept when we made the switch to minstrel
as default was that it showed higher throughput numbers in a
clean/ideal environment.

This is no longer the case and minstrel can push ath9k to
the same throughput levels. In TCP, with 3-stream cards, more than
295 Mbps can be obtained in open air, with 2-stream cards,
210 Mbps is easily reached. To test performance issues,
instead of using a broken rate control module, it is better
to use the fixed-rate interface provided by mac80211 anyway.

The ath9k RC has not received any bug fixes in years and is
just bit-rotting away - this patch removes it.

John W. Linville says:

====================
Please pull this batch of updates for the 3.14 stream!

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"This time I have uAPSD fixes since I was working on that, hwsim
improvements to make dynamic radios possible for the test suite, the
evidently long-overdue channel_change_time removal and a few other small
collected fix and improvements."

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"Besides a few trivial patches, I have an important workaround for a HW
issue that has kept me busy for a long time. Along with it, a fix that
prevents an error from being printed.
Eyal fixes our behavior against SISO APs and Ilan fixes an issue with
multiple interface scenarios.
Eliad fixes an error path in our init flow.
We also have a few 'static analyzers' fix."

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"It includes:

* A new NFC driver for Marvell's 8897, and a few NCI fixes and
improvements needed to support this chipset.

* An LLCP fix for how we were setting the default MIU on a p2p link. If
there is no explicit MIU extension announced at connection time, we
must use the default one and not the one announced at LLCP link
establishement time.

* A pn544 EEPROM config update. Some of the currently EEPROM configured
values are overwriting the firmware ones while other should not be set
by the driver itself.

* Some NFC digital stack fixes and improvements. Asynchronous functions
are better documented, RF technologies and CRC functions are set upon
PSL_REQ reception, and a few minor bugs are fixed.

* Minor and miscelaneous pn533, mei_phy and port100 fixes."

For the ath bits, Kalle says:

"Janusz added Kconfig option for DFS. The DFS code was there already, but
after fixes to mac80211 we can now enable it.

Bartosz added a runtime firmware feature flag to disable P2P. Our 10.1
firmware branch doesn't support P2P and ath10k can now disable that. He
also added a limit for how many clients can connect to ath10k AP.

Michal fixed WEP shared authentication, in case someone still uses it.
And I added firmware debug log to help the firmware engineers."

Along with that is a small batch of ath9k updates and a few other bits
here and there.
