In a number of places, kmalloc or valloc were used to acquire memory.
To ensure that these locations are correctly initialized, the calls were
changed to kzalloc and vzalloc. The change fixes a problem that was causing
HT operations to be cancelled.

rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: rtl8192com: rtl8192cu: rtl8192ee: rtl8723ae: rtl87323be: rtl8821ae: Use common cmd_send_packet

A locking problem was found in routine _rtl92ee_cmd_send_packet() that led
to system freezes. Upon inspection, several drivers had the same problem;
however, the routines all used the same code. The common code has been
moved into rtlwifi.

Realtek released new drivers on 06/28/2014. These changes implement all their
changes into the kernel version of the driver. In addition, these modifications

This patch updates the driver to match the latest Realtek release, and
it is an important step in getting the internal code source at Realtek to match
the code in the kernel. The primary reason for this is to make it easier for
Realtek to maintain the kernel source without requiring an intermediate like me.

In this process of merging the two source repositories, there are a lot
of changes in both, and this commit is rather large.

This driver was entered into staging a few cycles ago because there was
not time to integrate the Realtek version into the support routines in
the kernel. Now that there is an effort to converg the code base from Linux
and the Realtek repo, it is time to move this driver. In addition, all the
updates included in the 06/28/2014 version of the Realtek drivers are
included here.

With this change, it will be necessary to delete the staging driver. That
will be handled in a separate patch. As it impacts the staging tree, such a
patch is sent to a different destination.

There is no reason why frames marked with
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN have to be sent using
the UAPSD queue. Since mac80211 makes sure that
RoC is done before pushing an offchannel frame
to the driver, we can use the normal TX queues
for transmission.

Since we use IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL now, the
CAB/Offchannel queues are registered as the last
two queues. There is no need to check and reassign
the queues in the TX start()/done() routines.

CAB frames will not reach the tx() callback since
we set IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING and
pull the buffered frames during beacon transmission.
We also don't have a special HW queue for handling
off-channel frames.

This patch makes the driver to report signal strength information
to mac80211 for rtl8187se boards.

It differs from my previous RFT patch:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=140155388332534&w=2


because:
- I have now a working rtl8187se card, so I could serve my RFT by myself. :)
- CCK measurement code has changed a bit, but it does basically the same things.
- OFDM measurement method is changed because the older method reported incorrect
  measures, at least for signals stronger than -40dBm).

CCK measurement seems quite good. OFDM seems less accurate, but this is the
same as the "reference" staging driver dose. I wanted not to change things just
to make measures of _one_ (my) card a bit more close to what _I_ (in my setup)
expected..

IMHO results are still good enough to justify reporting signal in dBm rather than in
"unspecified" units, so this is what this patch actually does.

Results of my tests with a working rtl8187se card connected with coaxes and
various RF attenuators to my AP are:

Input (approx) | CCK meas | OFDM meas
--------------------------------------
      -30dBm   |  -32dBm  |  -31dBm
      -40dBm   |  -40dBm  |  -41dBm
      -50dBm   |  -50dBm  |  -55dBm
      -60dBm   |  -59dBm  |  -63dBm
      -70dBm   |  -69dBm  |  -73dBm
      -80dBm   |  -79dBm  |  -83dBm

Also some real-field tests has been done (no coax, packets in the air) for the CCK
measure method, and they resulted in reasonable values.

When multiple channel contexts are enabled, a p2p interface
that is assigned to a context will have an address that
is different from the device mac address, which is used
by wpa_s as the p2p device ID.

Certain frames like provision requests use the device address
and these get dropped since ath9k_calculate_summary_state()
iterates over only the active interfaces in a context and the
device address is not used.

Fix this by adding the device mac address to the bssid mask.
