commit b6213e413a4e0c66548153516b074df14f9d08e0 upstream.
This patch fixes regression caused by commit a16dad77634 "MIPS: Fix
potencial corruption". That commit fixes one corruption scenario in
cost of adding another one, which actually start to cause crashes
on Yeeloong laptop when rtl8187 driver is used.
For correct DMA read operation on machines without DMA coherence, kernel
have to invalidate cache, such it will refill later with new data that
device wrote to memory, when that data is needed to process. We can only
invalidate full cache line. Hence when cache line includes both dma
buffer and some other data (written in cache, but not yet in main
memory), the other data can not hit memory due to invalidation. That
happen on rtl8187 where struct rtl8187_priv fields are located just
before and after small buffers that are passed to USB layer and DMA
is performed on them.
To fix the problem we align buffers and reserve space after them to make
them match cache line.
This patch does not resolve all possible MIPS problems entirely, for
that we have to assure that we always map cache aligned buffers for DMA,
what can be complex or even not possible. But patch fixes visible and
reproducible regression and seems other possible corruptions do not
happen in practice, since Yeeloong laptop works stable without rtl8187
driver.

In case of __dev_alloc_skb() failure rtl8187_init_urbs()
calls usb_free_urb(entry) where 'entry' can points to urb
allocated at the previous iteration. That means refcnt will be
decremented incorrectly and the urb can be used after memory
deallocation.
The patch fixes the issue and implements error handling of init_urbs
in rtl8187_start().

Pull USB 3.5-rc1 changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here is the big USB 3.5-rc1 pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge window.
It's touches a lot of different parts of the kernel, all USB drivers,
due to some API cleanups (getting rid of the ancient err() macro) and
some changes that are needed for USB 3.0 power management updates.
There are also lots of new drivers, pimarily gadget, but others as
well. We deleted a staging driver, which was nice, and finally
dropped the obsolete usbfs code, which will make Al happy to never
have to touch that again.
There were some build errors in the tree that linux-next found a few
days ago, but those were fixed by the most recent changes (all were
due to us not building with CONFIG_PM disabled.)

Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices. Comms
devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power
state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished.
Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state,
using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their
data transfer.
If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable
hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus
as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of
receiving data. Worse, some devices might blindly accept the
hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the
middle of receiving a transmission.
The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB
communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host. In order to keep
the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the
same in Linux.
Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications
drivers. I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that
implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

The driver for the RTL8187L chips returns IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK for all
packets, even if the maximum number of retries was exhausted. In addition
it fails to setup max_rates in the ieee80211_hw struct, This behavior
may be responsible for the problems noted in Bug 14168. As the bug is very

The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).
Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.
Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

The GNTSel bit should only concern pci devices by looking at RTL8180
spec, which is not the case of 8187B. Also testing shows that trying to
set this bit fails, a subsequent read from the register after trying to
set it shows that the bit isn't set, seems the hardware ignores it,
which makes sense. This setting was a left over from Realtek sources.

Clearing the per packet TX AGC for the RTL8187B device appears to
increase its overall TX power. This allows the device to associate and a
connection to be established using APs a little further away.
This is in accordance to what is done for RTL8187L devices and also what
Realtek drivers do.

This reverts commit 030725d2c7c1fafec7ede618647bf30ed79601f0.
This commit relies on commit 5ed3bc7288487bd4f891f420a07319e0b538b4fe
("mac80211: use netif_receive_skb in ieee80211_tx_status callpath")
Unfortunately not all drivers are calling ieee80211_tx_status from a
compatible context, so that commit needs to be reverted in 2.6.36.

The existing code seemed to be somewhat based on the datasheet, but
varied substantially from the vendor-provided driver. This mirrors the
handling of the rtl8185 case from that driver, but still neglects the
specifics for the rtl8180 hardware. Those details are a bit muddled...
