bonding: IFF_BONDING is not stripped on enslave failure

2013-05-01T16:41:07Z

[ Upstream commit b6a5a7b9a528a8b4c8bec940b607c5dd9102b8cc ] While enslaving a new device and after IFF_BONDING flag is set, in case of failure it is not stripped from the device's priv_flags while cleaning up, which could lead to other problems. Cleaning at err_close because the flag is set after dev_open(). v2: no change Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

bonding: fix bonding_masters race condition in bond unloading

2013-05-01T16:41:06Z

[ Upstream commit 69b0216ac255f523556fa3d4ff030d857eaaa37f ] While the bonding module is unloading, it is considered that after rtnl_link_unregister all bond devices are destroyed but since no synchronization mechanism exists, a new bond device can be created via bonding_masters before unregister_pernet_subsys which would lead to multiple problems (e.g. NULL pointer dereference, wrong RIP, list corruption). This patch fixes the issue by removing any bond devices left in the netns after bonding_masters is removed from sysfs.

ssb: implement spurious tone avoidance

2013-04-26T04:19:55Z

commit 46fc4c909339f5a84d1679045297d9d2fb596987 upstream. And make use of it in b43. This fixes a regression introduced with 49d55cef5b1925a5c1efb6aaddaa40fc7c693335 b43: N-PHY: implement spurious tone avoidance This commit made BCM4322 use only MCS 0 on channel 13, which of course resulted in performance drop (down to 0.7Mb/s).

ath9k_hw: change AR9580 initvals to fix a stability issue

2013-04-26T04:19:55Z

commit f09a878511997c25a76bf111a32f6b8345a701a5 upstream. The hardware parsing of Control Wrapper Frames needs to be disabled, as it has been causing spurious decryption error reports. The initvals for other chips have been updated to disable it, but AR9580 was left out for some reason. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ath9k_htc: accept 1.x firmware newer than 1.3

2013-04-26T04:19:55Z

commit 319e7bd96aca64a478f3aad40711c928405b8b77 upstream. Since the firmware has been open sourced, the minor version has been bumped to 1.4 and the API/ABI will stay compatible across further 1.x releases.

can: sja1000: fix handling on dt properties on little endian systems

2013-04-26T04:19:54Z

commit 0443de5fbf224abf41f688d8487b0c307dc5a4b4 upstream. To get correct endianes on little endian cpus (like arm) while reading device tree properties, this patch replaces of_get_property() with of_property_read_u32(). While there use of_property_read_bool() for the handling of the boolean "nxp,no-comparator-bypass" property.

r8169: fix auto speed down issue

2013-04-17T04:27:27Z

commit e2409d83434d77874b461b78af6a19cd6e6a1280 upstream. It would cause no link after suspending or shutdowning when the nic changes the speed to 10M and connects to a link partner which forces the speed to 100M. Check the link partner ability to determine which speed to set. Signed-off-by: Hayes Wang Acked-by: Francois Romieu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

rt2x00: rt2x00pci_regbusy_read() - only print register access failure once

2013-04-12T16:38:47Z

commit 83589b30f1e1dc9898986293c9336b8ce1705dec upstream. BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1128840 It appears that when this register read fails it never recovers, so I think there is no need to repeat the same error message ad infinitum.
