<content type='text'>
This patch adds a driver workaround for a HW issue.

A race condition in the HW results in missing interrupts,
which can be avoided by a read/write with the ISR register.
All chips in the AR9002 series are affected by this bug - AR9003
and above do not have this problem.

Pick the MAC address of the first virtual interface as the new hardware MAC
address. Set BSSID mask according to this MAC address. This fixes CVE-2013-4579.

<title>ath9k: fix duration calculation for non-aggregated packets</title>

<id>bbf807bc0697e577c137a5fffb30fca7c6a45da1</id>
<content type='text'>
When not aggregating packets, fi-&gt;framelen should be passed in as length
to calculate the duration. Before the tx path rework, ath_tx_fill_desc
was called for either one aggregate, or one single frame, with the
length of the packet or the aggregate as a parameter.
After the rework, ath_tx_sched_aggr can pass a burst of single frames to
ath_tx_fill_desc and sets len=0.
Fix broken duration calculation by overriding the length in ath_tx_fill_desc
before passing it to ath_buf_set_rate.

Building brcmfmac for sparc64 gave the following warning:

  CC [M]  drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmfmac/bcmsdh_sdmmc.o
    bcmsdh_sdmmc.c: In function 'brcmf_sdioh_request_byte':

                          in this function [-Wuninitialized]

Inspecting the code it indeed had a path of execution in
which the return value was used uninitialized. This patch
fixes that code path.

If kmalloc fails wcn36xx_smd_rsp_process will attempt to dereference
a NULL pointer.  There might be a better error recovery then just
printing an error, but printing an error message is better then the
current behaviour.

Code in ath9k_hw_set_clockrate function indicates that ah-&gt;curchan
(and thus chan local variable) may be NULL.  If that is indeed the
case, IS_CHAN_HT40(chan) check has to be performed only in branch
where chan is not NULL.  Moving the code under already existing
if condition fixes this issue.

Bit 5 in the miscConfiguration field of the base EEPROM
header denotes whether QuickDrop is enabled or not. Fix
the incorrect usage of BIT(1) and also make sure that
this is done only for the required chips.
