<content type='text'>
commit 5de4db8fcb6d6fc7d9064c22841211790c0ab81b upstream.

We don't need to send firmware data asynchronously, much simpler is just
use synchronous usb_bulk_msg().

[ stable note: this patch was originally developed as cleanup, but it
remove incorrect usage of page_frag_alloc(): alloc more than PAGE_SIZE
and create not ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN dma buffers needed at least for
performance reason. Was tested on 5.0 and 4.20, see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202673 and
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202241 ]

commit 607076a904c435f2677fadaadd4af546279db68b upstream.

It doesn't make sense and the USB core warns on each submit of such
URB, easily flooding the message buffer with tracebacks.

Analogous issue was fixed in regular libertas driver in commit 6528d8804780
("libertas: don't set URB_ZERO_PACKET on IN USB transfer").

Since ccmp_pn is u8 *, the second half needs to start at array index 4

<title>ath9k: Avoid OF no-EEPROM quirks without qca,no-eeprom</title>

<id>3dfe7538f80acf0edf33ae4ae4f639c86e3a3be5</id>
<content type='text'>
commit ce938231bd3b1d7af3cbd8836f084801090470e1 upstream.

ath9k_of_init() function[0] was initially written on the assumption that
if someone had an explicit ath9k OF node that "there must be something
wrong, why would someone add an OF node if everything is fine"[1]
(Quoting Martin Blumenstingl &lt;martin.blumenstingl@googlemail.com&gt;)

"it turns out it's not that simple. with your requirements I'm now aware
of two use-cases where the current code in ath9k_of_init() doesn't work
without modifications"[1]

The "your requirements" Martin speaks of is the result of the fact that I
have a device (PowerCloud Systems CR5000) has some kind of default - not
unique mac address - set and requires to set the correct MAC address via
mac-address devicetree property, however:

"some cards come with a physical EEPROM chip [or OTP] so "qca,no-eeprom"
should not be set (your use-case). in this case AH_USE_EEPROM should be
set (which is the default when there is no OF node)"[1]

The other use case is:

the firmware on some PowerMac G5 seems to add a OF node for the ath9k
card automatically. depending on the EEPROM on the card AH_NO_EEP_SWAP
should be unset (which is the default when there is no OF node). see [3]

After this patch to ath9k_of_init() the new behavior will be:

    if there's no OF node then everything is the same as before
    if there's an empty OF node then ath9k will use the hardware EEPROM
      (before ath9k would fail to initialize because no EEPROM data was
      provided by userspace)
    if there's an OF node with only a MAC address then ath9k will use
      the MAC address and the hardware EEPROM (see the case above)
    with "qca,no-eeprom" EEPROM data from userspace will be requested.
      the behavior here will not change
[1]

Martin provides additional background on EEPROM swapping[1].

Thanks to Christian Lamparter &lt;chunkeey@gmail.com&gt; for all his help on
troubleshooting this issue and the basis for this patch.

MT7610U device will fail to initialize, what cause system hung due to
