      cfg80211: fix regression on processing country IEs · a171fba4
      Luis R. Rodriguez authored 
      The patch 4f366c5d:

	wireless: only use alpha2 regulatory information from country IE

removed some complex intersection we were always doing between the AP's
country IE info and what we got from CRDA. When CRDA sent us back a
regulatory domain we would do some sanity checks on that regulatory
domain response we just got. Part of these sanity checks included
checking that we already had performed an intersection for the
request of NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_COUNTRY_IE type.

This mean that cfg80211 was only processing country IEs for cases
where we already had an intersection, but since we removed enforcing
this this is no longer required, we should just apply the country
IE country hint with the data received from CRDA.

This patch has fixes intended for kernels >= 2.6.36.

      carl9170: fix memory leak issue in async cmd macro wrappers · 3d2f2cd0
      Christian Lamparter authored 
      This patch continues where the previous commit:
	"carl9170: fix async command buffer leak"
left off.

Similar to carl9170_reboot/carl9170_powersave, the
carl9170_async_regwrite* macros would leak the
temporary command buffer, if __carl9170_exec_cmd
fails to upload the command to the device.

      mac80211: don't sanitize invalid rates · 5f4e6b2d
      Christian Lamparter authored 
      I found this bug while poking around with a pure-gn AP.

Commit:
cfg80211/mac80211: Use more generic bitrate mask for rate control

Added some sanity checks to ensure that each tx rate index
is included in the configured mask and it would change any
rate indexes if it wasn't.

But, the current implementation doesn't take into account
that the invalid rate index "-1" has a special meaning
(= no further attempts) and it should not be "changed".

      If __carl9170_exec_cmd fails to upload an asynchronous
command to the device, the functions: carl9170_reboot
and carl9170_powersave will leak the temporary command
assembly buffer.

      mac80211: cancel restart_work explicitly instead of depending on flush_scheduled_work() · 99b88a0e
      Tejun Heo authored 
      iee80211_hw->restart_work is the only work which uses the system
workqueue.  Instead of calling flush_scheduled_work() during
iee80211_exit(), cancel the work during unregistration.

This is to prepare for the deprecation and removal of
flush_scheduled_work().
