ath9k: check pdata variable before dereferencing it
Due to my recent commit (ath9k: allow to load EEPROM
content via firmware API) smatch complains about that
the 'pdata' variable in 'ath9k_hw_init' can be NULL
and it is dereferenced before checking that. That is
absolutely correct.
Check the 'pdata' variable before using it to avoid
a NULL pointer dereference.

iwlwifi: don't handle masked interrupt
This can lead to a panic if the driver isn't ready to
handle them. Since our interrupt line is shared, we can get
an interrupt at any time (and CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ checks
that even when the interrupt is being freed).
If the op_mode has gone away, we musn't call it. To avoid
this the transport disables the interrupts when the hw is
stopped and the op_mode is leaving.
If there is an event that would cause an interrupt the INTA
register is updated regardless of the enablement of the
interrupts: even if the interrupts are disabled, the INTA
will be changed, but the device won't issue an interrupt.
But the ISR can be called at any time, so we ought ignore
the value in the INTA otherwise we can call the op_mode
after it was freed.
I found this bug when the op_mode_start failed, and called
iwl_trans_stop_hw(trans, true). Then I played with the
RFKILL button, and removed the module.
While removing the module, the IRQ is freed, and the ISR is
called (CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ enabled). Panic.

rt2800usb: Add support for 2001:3c1e (D-Link DWA-125 rev B1) USB Wi-Fi adapter
D-Link DWA-125/B1 is a relatively new USB Wi-Fi adapter, using a
Ralink chipset supported by the rt2800usb driver. Currently, to work
around the problem (it's missing in all present kernel versions,
up to and including 3.7.x), I had to add this to /etc/rc.local:
echo 2001 3c1e >> /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800usb/new_id
After that, the device works without problems. Been using it for over
a week with no bugs in sight.
The attached patch is trivial and simply adds the new USB ID to the
list of devices handled by rt2800usb.

b43legacy: Fix firmware loading when driver is built into the kernel
Recent versions of udev cause synchronous firmware loading from the
probe routine to fail because the request to user space times out.
The original fix for b43legacy (commit
a3ea2c7) moved the firmware
load from the probe routine to a work queue, but it still used synchronous
firmware loading. This method is OK when b43legacy is built as a module;
however, it fails when the driver is compiled into the kernel.
This version changes the code to load the initial firmware file
using request_firmware_nowait(). A completion event is used to
hold the work queue until that file is available. The remaining
firmware files are read synchronously.

net: Add support for hardware-offloaded encapsulation
This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx
checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE).
For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits
in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the
skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will
use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware.
For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the
skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

Merge branch 'tipc_net-next_v2' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux
Paul Gortmaker says:
====================
Changes since v1:
-get rid of essentially unused variable spotted by
Neil Horman (patch #2)
-drop patch #3; defer it for 3.9 content, so Neil,
Jon and Ying can discuss its specifics at their
leisure while net-next is closed. (It had no
direct dependencies to the rest of the series, and
was just an optimization)
-fix indentation of accept() code directly in place
vs. forking it out to a separate function (was patch
#10, now patch #9).
Rebuilt and re-ran tests just to ensure nothing odd happened.
Original v1 text follows, updated pull information follows that.
---------
Here is another batch of TIPC changes. The most interesting
thing is probably the non-blocking socket connect - I'm told
there were several users looking forward to seeing this.
Also there were some resource limitation changes that had
the right intent back in 2005, but were now apparently causing
needless limitations to people's real use cases; those have
been relaxed/removed.
There is a lockdep splat fix, but no need for a stable backport,
since it is virtually impossible to trigger in mainline; you
have to essentially modify code to force the probabilities
in your favour to see it.
The rest can largely be categorized as general cleanup of things
seen in the process of getting the above changes done.
Tested between 64 and 32 bit nodes with the test suite. I've
also compile tested all the individual commits on the chain.
I'd originally figured on this queue not being ready for 3.8, but
the extended stabilization window of 3.7 has changed that. On
the other hand, this can still be 3.9 material, if that simply
works better for folks - no problem for me to defer it to 2013.
If anyone spots any problems then I'll definitely defer it,
rather than rush a last minute respin.

tipc: refactor accept() code for improved readability
In TIPC's accept() routine, there is a large block of code relating
to initialization of a new socket, all within an if condition checking
if the allocation succeeded.
Here, we simply flip the check of the if, so that the main execution
path stays at the same indentation level, which improves readability.
If the allocation fails, we jump to an already existing exit label.

tipc: add lock nesting notation to quiet lockdep warning
TIPC accept() call grabs the socket lock on a newly allocated

Tell lockdep that this locking is safe by using lock_sock_nested().
This is similar to what was done in commit
5131a184a3458d9 for
SCTP code ("SCTP: lock_sock_nested in sctp_sock_migrate").
Also note that this is isn't something that is seen normally,

tipc: introduce non-blocking socket connect
TIPC has so far only supported blocking connect(), meaning that a call
to connect() doesn't return until either the connection is fully
established, or an error occurs. This has proved insufficient for many
users, so we now introduce non-blocking connect(), analogous to how
this is done in TCP and other protocols.
With this feature, if a connection cannot be established instantly,
connect() will return the error code "-EINPROGRESS".
If the user later calls connect() again, he will either have the
return code "-EALREADY" or "-EISCONN", depending on whether the
connection has been established or not.
The user must have explicitly set the socket to be non-blocking
(SOCK_NONBLOCK or O_NONBLOCK, depending on method used), so unless
for some reason they had set this already (the socket would anyway
remain blocking in current TIPC) this change should be completely
backwards compatible.
It is also now possible to call select() or poll() to wait for the
completion of a connection.
An effect of the above is that the actual completion of a connection
may now be performed asynchronously, independent of the calls from
user space. Therefore, we now execute this code in BH context, in
the function filter_rcv(), which is executed upon reception of
messages in the socket.

tipc: consolidate connection-oriented message reception in one function
Handling of connection-related message reception is currently scattered
around at different places in the code. This makes it harder to verify
that things are handled correctly in all possible scenarios.
So we consolidate the existing processing of connection-oriented
message reception in a single routine. In the process, we convert the
chain of if/else into a switch/case for improved readability.
A cast on the socket_state in the switch is needed to avoid compile
warnings on 32 bit, like "net/tipc/socket.c:1252:2: warning: case value
‘
4294967295’ not in enumerated type". This happens because existing
tipc code pseudo extends the default linux socket state values with:
#define SS_LISTENING -1 /* socket is listening */
#define SS_READY -2 /* socket is connectionless */
It may make sense to add these as _positive_ values to the existing
socket state enum list someday, vs. these already existing defines.

tipc: standardize across connect/disconnect function naming
Currently we have tipc_disconnect and tipc_disconnect_port. It is
not clear from the names alone, what they do or how they differ.
It turns out that tipc_disconnect just deals with the port locking
and then calls tipc_disconnect_port which does all the work.
If we rename as follows: tipc_disconnect_port --> __tipc_disconnect
then we will be following typical linux convention, where:
__tipc_disconnect: "raw" function that does all the work.
tipc_disconnect: wrapper that deals with locking and then calls
the real core __tipc_disconnect function
With this, the difference is immediately evident, and locking
violations are more apt to be spotted by chance while working on,
or even just while reading the code.
On the connect side of things, we currently only have the single
"tipc_connect2port" function. It does both the locking at enter/exit,
and the core of the work. Pending changes will make it desireable to
have the connect be a two part locking wrapper + worker function,
just like the disconnect is already.
Here, we make the connect look just like the updated disconnect case,
for the above reason, and for consistency. In the process, we also
get rid of the "2port" suffix that was on the original name, since
it adds no descriptive value.
On close examination, one might notice that the above connect
changes implicitly move the call to tipc_link_get_max_pkt() to be
within the scope of tipc_port_lock() protected region; when it was
not previously. We don't see any issues with this, and it is in
keeping with __tipc_connect doing the work and tipc_connect just
handling the locking.

tipc: eliminate aggregate sk_receive_queue limit
As a complement to the per-socket sk_recv_queue limit, TIPC keeps a
global atomic counter for the sum of sk_recv_queue sizes across all
tipc sockets. When incremented, the counter is compared to an upper
threshold value, and if this is reached, the message is rejected
with error code TIPC_OVERLOAD.
This check was originally meant to protect the node against
buffer exhaustion and general CPU overload. However, all experience
indicates that the feature not only is redundant on Linux, but even
harmful. Users run into the limit very often, causing disturbances
for their applications, while removing it seems to have no negative
effects at all. We have also seen that overall performance is
boosted significantly when this bottleneck is removed.
Furthermore, we don't see any other network protocols maintaining
such a mechanism, something strengthening our conviction that this
control can be eliminated.
As a result, the atomic variable tipc_queue_size is now unused
and so it can be deleted. There is a getsockopt call that used
to allow reading it; we retain that but just return zero for
maximum compatibility.

"A few more patches to 3.8, I hope they can still make it to mainline!

of fixes to the previous code, as well as a few small features:
* VHT association in mac80211
* some new debugfs files
* P2P GO powersave configuration
* masked MAC address verification
The biggest patch is probably the BSS struct changes to use RCU for
their IE buffers to fix potential races. I've not tagged this for stable
because it's pretty invasive and nobody has ever seen any bugs in this
area as far as I know."

brcmsmac, and a number of others. Also, Hauke gives us a series that
