iwlwifi: add missing type declaration

2016-07-12T11:51:57+00:00

The iwl-debug.h header relies in implicit inclusion of linux/device.h and
we get a lot of warnings without that:

The easiest workaround is to just declare 'struct device' before its first use,
rather than including the entire header file.

mac80211: Add support for beacon report radio measurement

2016-07-06T12:53:19+00:00

Add the following to support beacon report radio measurement
with the measurement mode field set to passive or active:
1. Propagate the required scan duration to the device
2. Report the scan start time (in terms of TSF)
3. Report each BSS's detection time (also in terms of TSF)

TSF times refer to the BSS that the interface that requested the
scan is connected to.

iwlwifi: move iwl_drv to be shared across transports

2016-07-06T07:37:44+00:00

All transports has this structure. By moving it to be
shared, we can get rid of casting to the specific transport
in probe and remove.

iwlwifi: pcie: centralize SCD status logging

2016-07-06T07:32:34+00:00

Centralize the logging of SCD status. The motivation is
that for a000 devices we will have new SCD HW, but this
code was duplicate anyway, so it is a proper cleanup.

iwlwifi: mvm: support v4 of the TX power command

2016-07-06T07:30:06+00:00

Add support for the v4 version of the TX power command.  Just add a
new version and do the same sizing tricks that were done when support
for v3 was introduced.

This patch doesn't support the new functionality introduced, but makes
the driver work with the new size of the command.
