b43legacy: fix DMA mapping leakage

2008-04-15T19:04:36+00:00

This fixes a DMA mapping leakage in the case where we reject a DMA buffer
because of its address.
The patch by Michael Buesch has been ported to b43legacy.

ssb: Fix usage of struct device used for DMAing

2008-04-15T19:04:35+00:00

This fixes DMA on architectures where DMA is nontrivial, like PPC64.
We must use the host-device's (PCI) struct device for any DMA
operation instead of the SSB device. For this we add a new
struct device pointer to the SSB device structure that will always
point to the right device for DMAing.

Without this patch b43 and b44 drivers won't work on complex-DMA
architectures, that for example need dev->archdata for DMA operations.

b43legacy: fix initvals loading on bcm4303

2008-04-15T19:04:34+00:00

This allows for the correct initial values to be uploaded to bcm4303
devices. It should be correct, but I can't reliably test this as I suspect
there's something going wrong with an hardware rfkill switch on my laptop.
Please test.

rtl8187: Add missing priv->vif assignments

2008-04-15T18:51:57+00:00

This adds missing priv->vif assignments after "mac80211: don't use
interface indices in drivers" change. As rtl8180, rtl8187 also needs
priv->vif to be set, as without this an oops can happen in rtl8187_tx
function (priv->vif is passed to ieee80211_rts_duration).

[NET]: Undo code bloat in hot paths due to print_mac().

2008-04-08T23:50:44+00:00

If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler
can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it
even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop.

So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths,
use MAC_FMT et al. instead.

As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to
handle this better, but that is a change to an interface
used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated
carefully.  This here is thus the less risky fix for
2.6.25

ipw2200: set MAC address on radiotap interface

2008-04-08T02:19:29+00:00

Commit bada339ba24dee9e143bfb42e1dc61f146619846 enforces that all
interfaces have a valid MAC address before they are brought up.

ipw2200 does not assign a MAC address to it's radiotap interface, meaning
that the radiotap interface cannot be brought up in 2.6.24.
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215714

Fix this by copying the MAC address from the real interface.
