      The problem is identical to the one for ipw2200 which is already fixed:

      We separate device bring up and registration with network stack
      to avoid the problem.

      iwlwifi: disable WoWLAN if !CONFIG_PM_SLEEP · fcb6ff5e
      Johannes Berg authored
      If CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled, then iwlwifi doesn't
      support suspend/resume handlers and thus mac80211
      (correctly) refuses advertising WoWLAN. Disable
      WoWLAN in the driver in this case.

      mac80211: fix non RCU-safe sta_list manipulation · 794454ce
      Arik Nemtsov authored
      sta_info_cleanup locks the sta_list using rcu_read_lock however
      the delete operation isn't rcu safe. A race between sta_info_cleanup
      timer being called and a STA being removed can occur which leads
      to a panic while traversing sta_list. Fix this by switching to the
      RCU-safe versions.

      bcma: add ext PA workaround for BCM4331 and BCM43431 · 69aaedd3
      Seth Forshee authored
      MacBook Pro models with BCM4331 wireless have been found to have the ext
      PA lines disabled after resuming from S3 without external power attach.
      This causes them to be unable to transmit. Add a workaround to ensure
      that the ext PA lines are enabled on BCM4331. Also extend all handling
      of ext PA line muxing to BCM43431 as is done in the Broadcom SDK.

      Remove spinlock as atomic_t can be used instead. Note we use only 16
      lower bits, upper bits are changed but we impilcilty cast to u16.

      mac80211: clean up remain-on-channel on interface stop · 71ecfa18
      Johannes Berg authored
      When any interface goes down, it could be the one that we
      were doing a remain-on-channel with. We therefore need to
      cancel the remain-on-channel and flush the related work
      structs so they don't run after the interface has been
      removed or even destroyed.
      
      It's also possible in this case that an off-channel SKB
      was never transmitted, so free it if this is the case.
      Note that this can also happen if the driver finishes
      the off-channel period without ever starting it.

      mac80211: Fix Unreachable Mesh Station Problem when joining to another MBSS · b8bacc18
      Chun-Yeow Yeoh authored
      Mesh station that joins an MBSS is reachable using mesh portal with 6
      address frame by mesh stations from another MBSS if these two different
      MBSSes are bridged. However, if the mesh station later moves into the
      same MBSS of those mesh stations, it is unreachable by mesh stations
      in the MBSS due to the mpp_paths table is not deleted. A quick fix
      is to perform mesh_path_lookup, if it is available for the target
      destination, mpp_path_lookup is not performed. When the mesh station
      moves back to its original MBSS, the mesh_paths will be deleted once
      expired. So, it will be reachable using mpp_path_lookup again.

      dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadata · cc8394d8
      Joe Thornber authored
      This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin
      pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_.  This,
      read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the
      live target.
      
      Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time.  The pool's status
      line will give the block location for the current msnap.
      
      Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the
      thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows:
      
          thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev>
      
      Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools
      
      Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things
      that have traditionally been kernel side tasks:
      
           i) Incremental backups.
      
           By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have
           changed over time.  Combined with data snapshots we can ensure
           the data doesn't change while we back it up.
      
           A short proof of concept script can be found here:
      
           https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb
      
           ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another.
      
           iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin.
      
           iv) Asyncronous replication.

      dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init · 35991652
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that
      need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to
      the device.  Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN.
      
      With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl
      too.  The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened.
      
      Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd
      (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten
      milliseconds.
      
      Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due
      to a path failure.  Such retries should be handled intelligently by the
      code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI
      commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write
      commands).  For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that
      if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously
      marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which
      might fail too.  It can be determined if the failure happens on the
      device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all
      SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

      dm mpath: delay retry of bypassed pg · f220fd4e
      Mike Christie authored
      If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available,
      set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying.
      
      If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is
      getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right
      away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a
      few seconds or even several minutes.

      This reverts the tty layer change to use per-tty locking, because it's

      there are several smaller commits that built upon it, they also get
      reverted here. The list of reverted commits is:

      had an explicit override to "unsigned short".  Al didn't notice, and
      made both of them be the unsigned short.
      
      The frv signal fix is fallout from simplifying the do_notify_resume()
      code, and leaving an extra parenthesis.

      Anton Blanchard authored
      commit e57f93cc (powerpc: get rid of nlink_t uses, switch to
      explicitly-sized type) changed the size of st_nlink on ppc64 from
      a long to a short, resulting in boot failures.

      e1000e: fix Rapid Start Technology support for i217 · 6d7407bf
      Bruce Allan authored
      The definition of I217_PROXY_CTRL must use the BM_PHY_REG() macro instead
      of the PHY_REG() macro for PHY page 800 register 70 since it is for a PHY
      register greater than the maximum allowed by the latter macro, and fix a
      typo setting the I217_MEMPWR register in e1000_suspend_workarounds_ich8lan.
      
      Also for clarity, rename a few defines as bit definitions instead of masks.

      This is another fixup where the data is not transfered into buffer
      addressed by skb->data but into a page.
