commit 11a002efbaa7fbd9f6e616695ab42aa9f1caf060 upstream.

During initialization firmware does some sort of
memory switch between DRAM and IRAM. If
configuration value for bank switching isn't
correct device crashes during init.

The new value prevents firmware 11.0.0.302 (and
possibly others) for qca61x4 hw2.1 from crashing
during init.

commit f9e5554cd8ca1d1212ec922755b397a20f737923 upstream.

For 8000 series, we need to access the device to know what
firmware to load. Before we do so, we need to prepare the
device otherwise we might not be able to access the
hardware.

commit be88a1ada9b97bb016196b7f4a1fc2fe2f798529 upstream.

This fixes the byte order copying in the MAO (Mac Override
Section) section from the PNVM, as the byte swapping is not
required anymore in the 8000 family. Due to the byte
swapping, the driver was reporting an incorrect MAC
adddress.

commit 923a8c1d8069104726bde55c37cec66324ccc328 upstream.

When BT is active, we want to avoid the shared antenna for
management frame to make sure we don't disturb BT. There
was a bug in that code because it chose the antenna
BIT(ANT_A) where ANT_A is already a bitmap (0x1). This
means that the antenna chosen in the end was ANT_B.
While this is not optimal on devices with 2 antennas (it'd
disturb BT), it is critical on single antenna devices like
3160 which couldn't connect at all when BT was active.

This fixes:

commit c779273b37bec14c33feeab11c4d457a24bc64e0 upstream.

commit b112889c5af8124 ("iwlwifi: mvm: add Aux ROC request/response flow")
added aux ROC flow in addition to the existing ROC flow. While doing
it, it moved the ROC reference release to a common work item, which
is being called for both the ROC and aux ROC flows.

This resulted in invalid reference accounting, as no reference was
taken in case of aux ROC, while a reference was released on completion.

Fix it by adding a reference for the aux ROC as well, and release
only the relevant references on completion (according to the set bits).

While at it, convert cancel_work_sync() to flush_work(), in order
to make sure the references are being cleaned properly.

<title>rtlwifi: Remove the clear interrupt routine from all drivers</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 1277fa2ab2f9a624a4b0177119ca13b5fd65edd0 upstream.

Several of these drivers have there TX randomly blocked for 3~5 seconds while
measuring tx throughput (iperf). The root couse happens in rtl_pci_flush().
The function uses a while-loop to wait for TX queue length to decrease to 0.
The TX queue length counts the number of packets that are queued in the driver.
The driver relys on the TX OK interrupt to return skb and reduce TX queue length.

The interrupt subroutine disables interupts, reads the interrupt registers, and
then clears the registers in the beginning of _rtl_pci_interrupt(). After all
interupts process are finished, the driver invokes enable_interrupt() to enable
interupts. This behavior is normal for an interrupt subroutine.

But enable_interrupt() invokes clear_interrupt() again. This unexpected interrupt
clearing may cleari me fresh TX OK interrupts. These missing interrupts cause TX
queue length to never reduce to 0i, which causes rtl_pci_flush() to be stuck in
unterminated while-loop.

This patch removes clear_interrupt() in enable_interrupt() to avoid this behavior.

commit 191f1aeeb93bb58e56f4d1868294ae22f3f67d4e upstream.

In d8a2c51cdcae ('ath9k_htc: Use atomic operations for op_flags') we
changed things like this:

-	if (priv-&gt;op_flags &amp; OP_TSF_RESET) {
+	if (test_bit(OP_TSF_RESET, &amp;priv-&gt;op_flags)) {

The problem is that test_bit() takes a bit number and not a mask.  It
means that when we do:

	set_bit(OP_TSF_RESET, &amp;priv-&gt;op_flags);

Then it sets the (1 &lt;&lt; 6) bit instead of the 6 bit so we are setting a
bit which is past the end of the unsigned long.

commit 90f91b129810c3f169e443252be30ed7c0130326 upstream.

It seems Broadcom released two devices with conflicting device id. There
are for sure 14e4:4321 PCI devices with BCM4321 (N-PHY) chipset, they
can be found in routers, e.g. Netgear WNR834Bv2. However, according to
Broadcom public sources 0x4321 is also used for 5 GHz BCM4306 (G-PHY).
It's unsure if they meant PCI device id, or "virtual" id (from SPROM).
To distinguish these devices lets check PHY type (G vs. N).
