ssb: implement spurious tone avoidance

2013-04-25T19:51:23Z

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

2013-04-25T19:51:22Z

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

2013-04-25T19:51:22Z

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.

tg3: Add 57766 device support.

2013-04-25T19:51:11Z

commit d3f677afb8076d09d090ff0a5d1229c9dd9f136e upstream. The patch also adds a couple of fixes - For the 57766 and non Ax versions of 57765, bootcode needs to setup the PCIE Fast Training Sequence (FTS) value to prevent transmit hangs. Unfortunately, it does not have enough room in the selfboot case (i.e. devices with no NVRAM). The driver needs to implement this. - For performance reasons, the 2k DMA engine mode on the 57766 should be enabled and dma size limited to 2k for standard sized packets.

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

2013-04-25T19:51:09Z

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.

can: mcp251x: add missing IRQF_ONESHOT to request_threaded_irq

2013-04-25T19:51:09Z

commit db388d6460ffa53b3b38429da6f70a913f89b048 upstream. Since commit: 1c6c695 genirq: Reject bogus threaded irq requests threaded irqs must provide a primary handler or set the IRQF_ONESHOT flag. Since the mcp251x driver doesn't make use of a primary handler set the IRQF_ONESHOT flag.

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

2013-04-12T16:52:13Z

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.

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.
