Even after commit "mac80211: deauth when interface is marked down"

goes down. There isn't a problem with this commit, but because of other
code changes it doesn't work on kernels >= 2.6.28 (works if same/similar
change applied on 2.6.27 for example).
The issue is as follows: after commit "mac80211: restructure disassoc/deauth
flows" in 2.6.28, the call to ieee80211_sta_deauthenticate added by
commit e327b847 will not work: because we do sta_info_flush(local, sdata)
inside ieee80211_stop (iface.c), all stations in interface are cleared, so
when calling ieee80211_sta_deauthenticate->ieee80211_set_disassoc (mlme.c),
inside ieee80211_set_disassoc we have this in the beginning:
sta = sta_info_get(local, ifsta->bssid);
if (!sta) {
The !sta check triggers, thus the function returns early and
ieee80211_sta_send_apinfo(sdata, ifsta) later isn't called, so
wpa_supplicant/userspace isn't notified with SIOCGIWAP.
This commit moves deauthentication to before flushing STA info
(sta_info_flush), thus the above can't happen and userspace is really
notified when interface goes down.

mac80211: handle failed scan requests in STA mode
If cfg80211 requests a scan it awaits either a return code != 0 from
the scan function or the cfg80211_scan_done to be called. In case of
a STA mac80211's scan function ever returns 0 and queues the scan request.
If ieee80211_sta_work is executed and ieee80211_start_scan fails for
some reason cfg80211_scan_done will never be called but cfg80211 still
thinks the scan was triggered successfully and will refuse any future
scan requests due to drv->scan_req not being cleaned up.
If a scan is triggered from within the MLME a similar problem appears. If
ieee80211_start_scan returns an error, local->scan_req will not be reset
and mac80211 will refuse any future scan requests.
Hence, in both cases call ieee80211_scan_failed (which notifies cfg80211

In addition, fix the ACM-based AC downgrade code to not use the

correct AC_BK value (3) instead of returning 0 (which would indicate
AC_VO). The comment here was not really very useful either, so let's
provide somewhat more helpful description of the situation.
Since it is very unlikely that the ACM flag would be set for AC_BK and
AC_BE, these bugs are not likely to be seen in real life networks.
Anyway, better do these things correctly should someone really use
silly AP configuration (and to pass some functionality tests, too).
Remove the TODO comment about handling ACM. Downgrading AC is

zd1211rw: Do not panic on device eject when associated
zd_op_tx() must not return an arbitrary error value since that can
leave mac80211 trying to retransmit the frame and with the extra data
pushed into the beginning of the skb on every attempt, this will end up
causing a kernel panic (skb_under_panic from skb_push call). This can
happen, e.g., when ejecting the device when associated.

mac80211: Fix panic on fragmentation with power saving
It was possible to hit a kernel panic on NULL pointer dereference in
dev_queue_xmit() when sending power save buffered frames to a STA that
woke up from sleep. This happened when the buffered frame was requeued
for transmission in ap_sta_ps_end(). In order to avoid the panic, copy
the skb->dev and skb->iif values from the first fragment to all other
fragments.

All 802.11n PCI devices (Cardbus, PCI, mini-PCI) require
serialization of IO when on non-uniprocessor systems. PCI
express devices not not require this.
This should fix our only last standing open ath9k kernel.org
bugzilla bug report:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12110
A port is probably required to older kernels and I can work on
that.

When they were part of the now defunct ieee80211 component, these
messages were only visible when special debugging settings were enabled.
Let's mirror that with a new lib80211 debugging Kconfig option.

GRO: Move netpoll checks to correct location
As my netpoll fix for net doesn't really work for net-next, we
need this update to move the checks into the right place. As it
stands we may pass freed skbs to netpoll_receive_skb.
This patch also introduces a netpoll_rx_on function to avoid GRO
completely if we're invoked through netpoll. This might seem
paranoid but as netpoll may have an external receive hook it's
better to be safe than sorry. I don't think we need this for
2.6.29 though since there's nothing immediately broken by it.
This patch also moves the GRO_* return values to netdevice.h since
VLAN needs them too (I tried to avoid this originally but alas
this seems to be the easiest way out). This fixes a bug in VLAN
where it continued to use the old return value 2 instead of the
correct GRO_DROP.

netfilter: conntrack: check for NEXTHDR_NONE before header sanity checking
NEXTHDR_NONE doesn't has an IPv6 option header, so the first check
for the length will always fail and results in a confusing message
"too short" if debugging enabled. With this patch, we check for
NEXTHDR_NONE before length sanity checkings are done.

netfilter: conntrack: fix dropping packet after l4proto->packet()
We currently use the negative value in the conntrack code to encode
the packet verdict in the error. As NF_DROP is equal to 0, inverting
NF_DROP makes no sense and, as a result, no packets are ever dropped.

tcp: make sure xmit goal size never becomes zero
It's not too likely to happen, would basically require crafted
packets (must hit the max guard in tcp_bound_to_half_wnd()).
It seems that nothing that bad would happen as there's tcp_mems
and congestion window that prevent runaway at some point from
hurting all too much (I'm not that sure what all those zero
sized segments we would generate do though in write queue).
Preventing it regardless is certainly the best way to go.

tcp: cache result of earlier divides when mss-aligning things
The results is very unlikely change every so often so we
hardly need to divide again after doing that once for a
connection. Yet, if divide still becomes necessary we
detect that and do the right thing and again settle for
non-divide state. Takes the u16 space which was previously
taken by the plain xmit_size_goal.
This should take care part of the tso vs non-tso difference
we found earlier.

tcp: simplify tcp_current_mss
There's very little need for most of the callsites to get
tp->xmit_goal_size updated. That will cost us divide as is,
so slice the function in two. Also, the only users of the
tp->xmit_goal_size are directly behind tcp_current_mss(),
so there's no need to store that variable into tcp_sock
at all! The drop of xmit_goal_size currently leaves 16-bit
hole and some reorganization would again be necessary to
change that (but I'm aiming to fill that hole with u16
xmit_goal_size_segs to cache the results of the remaining
divide to get that tso on regression).
Bring xmit_goal_size parts into tcp.c
