There are a number of problems that occur for the latest version
of the Realtek RTL8188CE device with the in-kernel driver. These
include selection of the wrong firmware, and system lockup. A full
fix is known, but is too invasive for inclusion in stable. This patch
fixes the problem with loading the wrong firmware, and logs a message
that the device may not work for kernels 3.6 and older.

Commit d83579e2a50ac68389e6b4c58b845c702cf37516 incorporated some
changes from the vendor driver that made it newly important that the
calculated hardware version correctly include the CHIP_92D bit, as all
of the IS_92D_* macros were changed to depend on it. However, this bit
was being unset for dual-mac, dual-phy devices. The vendor driver
behavior was modified to not do this, but unfortunately this change was
not picked up along with the others. This caused scanning in the 2.4GHz
band to be broken, and possibly other bugs as well.
This patch brings the version calculation logic in parity with the
vendor driver in this regard, and in doing so fixes the regression.
However, the version calculation code in general continues to be largely
incoherent and messy, and needs to be cleaned up.

In commit a7959c1, the USB part of rtlwifi was switched to convert
_usb_read_sync() to using a preallocated buffer rather than one
that has been acquired using kmalloc. Although this routine is named
as though it were synchronous, there seem to be simultaneous users,
and the selection of the index to the data buffer is not multi-user
safe. This situation is addressed by adding a new spinlock. The routine
cannot sleep, thus a mutex is not allowed.

Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary
and confusing for a human reader.
For example, this cast:
int y;
int *p = (int *)&y;
I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these
unnecessary casts. I manually removed the conversions this
script produces of casts with __force, __iomem and __user.

"Here is the big USB 3.5-rc1 pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge window.
It's touches a lot of different parts of the kernel, all USB drivers,
due to some API cleanups (getting rid of the ancient err() macro) and
some changes that are needed for USB 3.0 power management updates.
There are also lots of new drivers, pimarily gadget, but others as
well. We deleted a staging driver, which was nice, and finally
dropped the obsolete usbfs code, which will make Al happy to never
have to touch that again.
There were some build errors in the tree that linux-next found a few
days ago, but those were fixed by the most recent changes (all were
due to us not building with CONFIG_PM disabled.)

Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices. Comms
devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power
state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished.
Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state,
using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their
data transfer.
If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable
hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus
as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of
receiving data. Worse, some devices might blindly accept the
hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the
middle of receiving a transmission.
The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB
communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host. In order to keep
the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the
same in Linux.
Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications
drivers. I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that
implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

In commit b0302ab, the rtlwifi family of drivers was converted to use
asynchronous firmware loading. Unfortumately, the implementation was
racy, and the ieee80211 routines could be started before rtl_init_core()
was called to setup the data.
This patch fixes the bug noted in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43187.

In e1000e a conflict arose in the validation code for settings of

The chip version constant (0xCC33) was taken from version 0001.0105.2011
of the GPL vendor driver. Note that this driver version also ships a
firmware update, but I am unsure if it is required for E-CUT chips to
function properly.
A nearby spelling error was also corrected.

The previous definitions included both {B,C,D,E}_CUT_VERSION and
CHIP_92D_{C,D}_CUT with conflicting values for the C and D cut versions,
and literal hex values were used in the IS_92D_{C,D,E}_CUT macros. So
we clean all this up and in doing so enable cut-specific code paths for
cuts C and D, which would not have been executed because the
CHIP_92D_{C,D}_CUT constants were wrong and the cut version was thus
recorded incorrectly.

In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42976, a system with driver
rtl8192se used as an AP suffers from "Out of SW-IOMMU space" errors. These
are caused by the DMA buffers used for beacons never being unmapped.

The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to
acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When
_usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is
a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is
reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775.
The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could
be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from
within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync()
by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and
allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

The channel type argument to the rate_update()
callback isn't really the correct way to give
the rate control algorithm about the desired
RX bandwidth of the peer.
Remove this argument, and instead update the
STA capabilities with 20/40 appropriately. The
SMPS update done by this callback works in the
same way, so this makes the callback cleaner.

In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207, slowdowns of driver
rtl8192ce are reported. One fix (commit a9b89e2) has already been applied,
and it helped, but the maximum RX speed would still drop to 1 Mbps. As in
the previous fix, the initial gain was determined to be the problem; however,
the problem arises from a setting of the gain when scans are started.
Driver rtl8192de also has the same code structure - this one is fixed as well.

Driver rtl8192ce when used with the RTL8188CE device would start at about
20 Mbps on a 54 Mbps connection, but quickly drop to 1 Mbps. One of the
symptoms is that the AP would need to retransmit each packet 4 of 5 times
before the driver would acknowledge it. Recovery is possible only by
unloading and reloading the driver. This problem was reported at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207.
The problem is due to a missing update of the gain setting.

When driver rtl8192cu is used with the debug level set to 3 or greater,
the result is "sleeping function called from invalid context" due to
an rcu_read_lock() call in the DM refresh routine in driver rtl8192c.
This lock is not necessary as the USB driver does not use the struct
being protected, thus the lock is set only when a PCI interface is
active.
This bug is reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775.

In usb.c, routine _rtl_usb_init_sw() always returns 0, and rtl_usb_probe()
never checks the returned value. Thus we can change _rtl_usb_init_sw() to
a void routine. In addition, remove the underscore at the beginning of the
name of the routine.
