commit 8e2a866ef214af4e104ec8d593e3269d8fe66d19 upstream.

Not doing so will let BT kill our probe requests leading to
failures in scan.

commit 0822afe8ebb9389997ef677447c7b08e08797de9 upstream.

The iwlwifi scheduled scan implementation doesn't adhere to the
userspace API correctly - the API assumes that any new incoming
'incompatible' request (like scan or remain-on-channel for this
driver) will just cancel the scheduled scan. Instead our driver
relies on userspace cancelling it, thus breaking existing wpa_s
versions.

commit c512865446e6dd5b6e91e81187e75b734ad7cfc7 upstream.

The driver wasn't reading the NVM properly. While this
didn't lead to any issue until now, it seems that there
is an old version of the NVM in the wild.
In this version, the A band channels appear to be valid
but the SKU capabilities (another field of the NVM) says
that A band isn't supported at all.
With this specific version of the NVM, the driver would
think that A band is supported while the HW / firmware
don't. This leads to asserts.

commit 8298383c2cd5a6d0639f1bb1781fba181bd20154 upstream.

Even though we make sure PowerSave is not enabled by default
by disabling the flag, WIPHY_FLAG_PS_ON_BY_DEFAULT on init,
PS could be enabled by userspace based on various factors
like battery usage etc. Since PS in ath9k is just broken
and has been untested for years, remove support for it, but
allow a user to explicitly enable it using a module parameter.

<title>ath9k_htc: make -&gt;sta_rc_update atomic for most calls</title>

commit 2fa4cb905605c863bf570027233af7afd8149ae4 upstream.

sta_rc_update() callback must be atomic, hence we can not take mutexes
or do other operations, which can sleep in ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update().

I think we can just return from ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update(), if it is
called without IEEE80211_RC_SUPP_RATES_CHANGED bit. That will help
with scheduling while atomic bug for most cases (except mesh and IBSS
modes).

For mesh and IBSS I do not see other solution like creating additional
workqueue, because sending firmware command require us to sleep, but
this can be done in additional patch.

commit 1e2f9295f4c657500111514f92a3d3894d0e05b4 upstream.

Fast Channel Change across bands was enabled for
AR9462 recently, but this is causing baseband issues.
Disable it until this feature is tested well. Also,
remove the feature bit for AR9565 since it is
a single-band card and doesn't support this feature.
