commit 75d057bda1fbca6ade21378aa45db712e5f7d962 upstream.

Since the driver was first introduced into the kernel, it has only
handled the ciphers associated with WEP, WPA, and WPA2. It fails with
WPA3 even though mac80211 can handle those additional ciphers in software,
b43 did not report that it could handle them. By setting MFP_CAPABLE using
ieee80211_set_hw(), the problem is fixed.

With this change, b43 will handle the ciphers it knows in hardware,
and let mac80211 handle the others in software. It is not necessary to
use the module parameter NOHWCRYPT to turn hardware encryption off.
Although this change essentially eliminates that module parameter,
I am choosing to keep it for cases where the hardware is broken,
and software encryption is required for all ciphers.

<title>b43: Use scnprintf() for avoiding potential buffer overflow</title>

<content type='text'>
Since snprintf() returns the would-be-output size instead of the
actual output size, the succeeding calls may go beyond the given
buffer limit.  Fix it by replacing with scnprintf().

Return the engine type from the function looking at the registers, and
just derive the DMA mask from that in the one place we care.

These days drivers are not required to fallback to smaller DMA masks,
but can just set the largest mask they support, removing the need for
this trial and error logic.

====================
wireless-drivers-next patches for 5.3

First set of patches for 5.3, but not that many patches this time.

This pull request fails to compile with the tip tree due to
ktime_get_boot_ns() API changes there. It should be easy for Linus to
fix it in p54 driver once he pulls this, an example resolution here:

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190625160432.533aa140@canb.auug.org.au

Major changes:

airo

* switch to use skcipher interface

p54

* support boottime in scan results

rtw88

* add fast xmit support

* add random mac address on scan support

rt2x00

* add software watchdog to detect hangs, it's disabled by default
====================

In b43_request_firmware(), when ieee80211_register_hw() fails,
b43_one_core_detach() is called. In b43_bcma_remove() and
b43_ssb_remove(), b43_one_core_detach() is called again. In this case,
null-pointer dereferences and double-free problems can occur when
the driver is removed.

To fix this bug, the call to b43_one_core_detach() in
b43_request_firmware() is deleted.
