commit c93edc639392df733c7d72db4376a9add775d18a upstream.

commit 5c90422439d6
"iwlwifi: mvm: don't allow diversity if BT Coex / TT forbid it"
broke Rx with 2 chains for diversity.
This had an impact on throughput where we're using only a single
stream (11a/b/g APs, single stream APs, static SMPS).

<title>rtlwifi: Fix error when accessing unmapped memory in skb</title>

commit e9538cf4f90713eca71b1d6a74b4eae1d445c664 upstream.

These drivers use 9100-byte receive buffers, thus allocating an skb requires
an O(3) memory allocation. Under heavy memory loads and fragmentation, such
a request can fail. Previous versions of the driver have dropped the packet
and reused the old buffer; however, the new version introduced a bug in that
it released the old buffer before trying to allocate a new one. The previous
method is implemented here. The skb is unmapped before any attempt is made to
allocate another.

commit 9e4982f6a51a2442f1bb588fee42521b44b4531c upstream.

Like with ath9k, ath5k queues also need to be ordered by priority.
queue_info-&gt;tqi_subtype already contains the correct index, so use it
instead of relying on the order of ath5k_hw_setup_tx_queue calls.

commit 5a12a07e4495d1e4d79382e05c9d6e8b4d9fa4ec upstream.

Since the commit below, iwldvm sends the FLUSH command to
the firmware. All the devices that use iwldvm have a
firmware that expects the _v3 version of this command,
besides 5150.
5150's latest available firmware still expects a _v2 version
of the FLUSH command.
This means that since the commit below, we had a mismatch for
this specific device only.
This mismatch led to the NMI below:

commit 78063d81d353e10cbdd279c490593113b8fdae1c upstream.

Hardware queues are ordered by priority. Use queue index 0 for BK, which

commit ad8fdccf9c197a89e2d2fa78c453283dcc2c343f upstream.

The driver passes the desired hardware queue index for a WMM data queue
in qinfo-&gt;tqi_subtype. This was ignored in ath9k_hw_setuptxqueue, which
instead relied on the order in which the function is called.

commit ad8fdccf9c197a89e2d2fa78c453283dcc2c343f upstream.

The driver passes the desired hardware queue index for a WMM data queue
in qinfo-&gt;tqi_subtype. This was ignored in ath9k_hw_setuptxqueue, which
instead relied on the order in which the function is called.
