Use workqueue to perform SPI xfers, it's necessary to fix
nasty "BUG: scheduling while atomic", because
spu_write() calls spi_sync() and spi_sync() may sleep, but
hw_host_to_card() callback can be called from atomic context.
Remove kthread completely, workqueue now does its job.
Restore intermediate buffers which were removed in commit
86c34fe89e9cad9e1ba4d1a8bbf98259035f4caf that introduced
mentioned bug.

card->priv must not be accessed after lbs_remove_card() was called
as lbs_remove_card() frees card->priv via free_netdev().
For libertas_sdio this is a regression introduced by 23b149c1890f9.
The correct fix to the issue described there is simply to remove the
assignment. This flag is set at the appropriate time inside
lbs_remove_card anyway.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

This patch removes the internal command and data buffers that the GSPI driver
maintained and instead relies on the Libertas core to synchronize access
to the command and data ports as with the other interface drivers. This
cleanup reduces the GSPI driver's memory footprint and should improve
performance by removing the need to copy to these internal buffers.
This also simplifies the bottom half of the interrupt handler.
This is an incremental cleanup: after removing the redundant buffers, we
can further improve the driver to use a threaded IRQ handler instead of
maintaining its own thread. However I would like a few folks to test
the buffer removal first and make sure that I'm not introducing
regressions.
Tested on Blackfin BF527 with DMA disabled due to an issue with the SPI
host controller driver in the current bleeding-edge Blackfin kernel. I
would appreciate it if someone with working DMA could test this patch
and provide feedback.

The SPI driver writes to the bus mode register and performs a sanity
check by reading back what we wrote, however only the lower four bits of
that register are defined. In some cases, the device side seems to set
the higher bits, causing us to fail the sanity check unnecessarily.
Check only the lower four bits instead.

The SPI driver does a couple of card cleanup steps in the wrong order on
module removal. If IEEE PS is enabled, this results in the card being
left in IEEE PS mode and subsequent failures to reload the module. The
problem is that the surpriseremoved flag is set before calling
lbs_remove_card, but that function needs to issue a command to exit IEEE
PS mode (the flag blocks the command path). In addition, lbs_stop_card
should be called first because it clears out any pending commands.
Tested on a GSPI device with V9 firmware by confirming that we can
reload the module with or without IEEE PS enabled.
Also fix a warning from the wrong uint format in a printk.

Power save support depends on the firmware capabilities rather than the
card's hardware interface. Use the FW_CAPINFO_PS bit in the firmware
capabilities mask throughout the driver in place of the redundant
ps_supported flag and don't make decisions about PS support in the
interface drivers (with the exception of a special case in the USB
driver).

The card firmware does not set the Command Download Ready interrupt bit
when IEEE PS mode is enabled, preventing the driver from sending
commands (such as the command to exit IEEE PS mode) since there is no
indication that the card is ready to accept commands.
This patch works around the problem by using the the TX Download Ready
bit in place of the Command Download Ready Bit while in IEEE PS mode.

This removes the dependency on GPIO framework and lets the SPI host

This patch collects the two/three single SPI transfers into a message.
Also the delay in read path in case use_dummy_writes are not used is

The comment (which I remove) says that the translation is done SPI routines.
IMHO this can't work because the SPI driver does not know whether the incomming
bytes are part of the registers/bytes which need to be flipped or part of
packet data which has to remain untouched.
While adding le helpers I also removed spu_write_u32() which has no users.

Add initial support for libertas devices using a GSPI interface. This has
been tested with the 8686.
GSPI is intended to be used on embedded systems. Board-specific parameters are
required (see libertas_spi.h).
Thanks to everyone who took a look at the earlier versions of the patch.
