mac80211: add multi-rate retry support

2008-10-06T22:14:57+00:00

This patch adjusts the rate control API to allow multi-rate retry
if supported by the driver. The ieee80211_hw struct specifies how
many alternate rate selections the driver supports.

b43: Increase loop tries in do_dummy_tx

2008-09-30T18:07:25+00:00

One of the spin-on-condition loops in routine do_dummy_tx always exits before
the condition is satisfied. The hardware might be left in an inconsistent
state that might be the cause of the PHY transmission errors seen by some
users.

b43: Issue warning when RFKILL_INPUT is not enabled

2008-09-24T20:17:59+00:00

If the system is misconfigured with CONFIG_RFKILL set but CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT
not set, the built-in radio LEDs will not work. In the current code, no warning
is issued.

Revert "b43/b43legacy: add RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED support"

2008-09-17T02:32:30+00:00

This reverts commit bc19d6e0b74ef03a3baf035412c95192b54dfc6f, which as
Larry Finger reports causes the radio LED on his system to no longer
respond to rfkill switch events.
