reg_notifier can be called before the interface is up.
Handle this correctly by storing the requested country code, then
apply the relevant configuration when the interface is brought up.

Now that we've removed all uses of the set_channel
API except for the monitor channel and in libertas,
clarify this. Split the libertas mesh use into a
new libertas_set_mesh_channel() operation, just to
keep backward compatibility, and rename the normal
set_channel() to set_monitor_channel().
Also describe the desired set_monitor_channel()
semantics more clearly.

As described at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/86084
libertas is taking a long time to load because it loads firmware
during module loading.
Add a new API for interface drivers to load their firmware
asynchronously. The same semantics of the firmware table are followed
like before.
Interface drivers will be converted in follow-up patches, then we can
remove the old, synchronous firmware loading function.

Recent patches added support for resetting the SD8686 hardware when
commands time out, which seems to happen quite frequently soon after
resuming the system from a Wake-on-WLAN-triggered resume.
At http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10969 we see the same thing happen
with transmits. In this case, the hardware will fail to respond to
a frame passed for transmission, and libertas (correctly) will block
all further commands and transmissions as the hardware can only
deal with one thing at a time. This results in a lockup while the
system waits indefinitely for the dead card to respond.
Hook up a TX lockup timer to detect this and reset the hardware.

When scanning for the broadcast SSID, there is no need to add the
SSID TLV (restoring the behaviour of the driver behaviour in the wext
days, confirmed in Marvell specifications).
If bssid is unspecified, the current scan code will usually fire off an
active scan probing for the specific requested SSID. However, if a scan
is ongoing (or has just finished), those scan results will be used
instead (even if that scan is totally different, e.g. a passive scan on
channel 4 for a different SSID). Fix this inconsistency by always
firing off a scan when associating without a bssid.

Modify the driver so that it does not function when the interface is
down, in preparation for runtime power management.
No commands can be run while the interface is down, so the ndo_dev_stop
routine now directly does all necessary work (including asking the device
to disconnect from the network and disabling multicast functionality)
directly.
power_save and power_restore hooks are added meaning that card drivers
can take steps to turn the device off when the interface is down.
The MAC address can now only be changed when all interfaces are down;
the new address will be programmed when an interface gets brought up.
This matches mac80211 behaviour.
Also, some small cleanups/simplifications were made in the surrounding
device handling logic.

The mesh device is now exposed as an interface of the wiphy.
This exposes the mesh device to the cfg80211 interface, allowing
mesh channel selection to be reimplemented, and available to
NetworkManager as it was before.
Some header tweaking was needed in order to implement lbs_mesh_activated().

Certain firmware versions, particularly the 8388 found on the XO-1,
do not support the EHS_REMOVE_WAKEUP command that is used to disable
WOL. Sending this command to the card will return a failure that
would get propagated up the stack and cause suspend to fail.
Instead, fall back to an all-zero wakeup mask.

There are currently no provisions in place to ensure that the scanning
task has been stopped when the interface is stopped or removed.
This can result in a WARNING at net/wireless/core.c:643 and other badness
when you remove the module while a scan is happening.

Fix this leftover TODO from the cfg80211 conversion by doing a scan
if cfg80211 didn't pass in the BSSID for us. Since the scan code
uses so much of the cfg80211_scan_request structure to build up the
firmware command, we just fake one when the scan request is triggered
internally. But we need to make sure that internal 'fake' cfg82011
scan request does not get back to cfg82011 via cfg80211_scan_done().

Retrying commands seldomly works, most often the firmware is in a
weird state anyway and needs the device to reset. So it's better
to report the broken state back to user-space.
Also rename command_timer_fn() into lbs_cmd_timeout_handler(),
which better reflect it's usage.

This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation.
The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to
many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it.
FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles
the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory
resources.
I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use:
- The API is to simple, important functions are missing
- A fifo can be only allocated dynamically
- There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not
- There is no support for data records inside a fifo
So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up
the API to much. The new API has the following benefits:
- Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver.
- Provide an API for the most use case.
- Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions.
- Linux style habit.
- DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros
- Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo.
- The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an
indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator.
- Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo,
which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary.
- Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if
one is required.
- Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported:
- Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size
field of 1 bytes.
- Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size
field of 2 bytes.
- Fixed size records, which no record size field.
- Preserve memory resource.
- Performance!
- Easy to use!
This patch:
Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object,
reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data
structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init
prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This
patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

But there was no code that anywhere that was able to set this

This patch is to incorporate Dan Williams' comments for commit:
"libertas: implement function init/shutdown commands for SD8688"
1. remove fn_init_required and fn_shutdown_required variables from
lbs_private structure. If required, __lbs_cmd() will be called
directly to send function init/shutdown command for SD8688 in
if_sdio_probe() or if_sdio_remove() callback.
2. add global variable "user_rmmod" to distinguish between the module
removal case and the card removal case. This flag will be checked in
if_sdio_remove() against SD8688 card to determine whether or not the
function shutdown command needs to be sent.
3. remove "card" from if_sdio_model structure as it cannot store
card pointers for multiple cards. Besides, it's no longer needed
to store the "card" pointer with changes #1 & #2 above.

SD8688 is a WLAN/Bluetooth combo chip and both functions are supported
in a single firmware image. FUNC_INIT and FUNC_SHUTDOWN commands are
implemented to utilize the multiple function feature.
When SD8688 card is inserted, the firmware image should be downloaded
only once through either WLAN function (Libertas driver) or Bluetooth
function (Bluetooth driver).
This patch adds function init/shutdown for SD8688 WLAN function only.
