2012-09-14USB: rtl8187: remove __devinit* from the struct usb_device_id tableGreg Kroah-Hartman
commit a3433179d0822ccfa8e80aa4d1d52843bd2dcc63 upstream. This structure needs to always stick around, even if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is disabled, otherwise we can oops when trying to probe a device that was added after the structure is thrown away. Thanks to Fengguang Wu and Bjørn Mork for tracking this issue down.

2011-11-18USB: convert drivers/net/* to use module_usb_driver()Greg Kroah-Hartman
This converts the drivers in drivers/net/* to use the module_usb_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit simpler. Added bonus is that it removes some unneeded kernel log messages about drivers loading and/or unloading.

2011-03-04rtl8187: Change rate-control feedbackLarry Finger
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 old, testers have not been found, and I do not have the case where the indicated signal is less than -70 dBm.

2011-02-25mac80211: make tx() operation return voidJohannes Berg
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.

2010-11-15rtl8187: restore anaparam registers after reset with 8187BHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski
Current 8187B initialization misses anaparam registers restore after 8187 reset. This causes ANAPARAM register to stay zeroed out (ANAPARAM2 kept its value on my tests). To avoid this, call rtl8187_set_anaparam right after chip reset (to be on the safe side, as it makes sure we restore all ANAPARAM registers).

Usually you set RTL818X_CONFIG3_ANAPARAM_WRITE when you are going to change/write ANAPARAM registers. But in current initialization of RTL8187B there is a place where ANAPARAM_WRITE bit is set without any ANAPARAM register being written, without reason, so remove it.

2010-11-15rtl8187: don't set RTL818X_CONFIG3_GNT_SELECT flag on 8187BHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski
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.
