2013-04-08mac802154: Keep track of the channel when changedAlan Ott
Two sections checked whether the current channel != the new channel without ever setting the current channel variables. 1. net/mac802154/tx.c: Prevent set_channel() from getting called every time a packet is sent. 2. net/mac802154/mib.c: Lock (pib_lock) accesses to current_channel and current_page and make sure they are updated when the channel has been changed.

2013-04-07mac802154: Use netif flow controlAlan Ott
Use netif_stop_queue() and netif_wake_queue() to control the flow of packets to mac802154 devices. Since many IEEE 802.15.4 devices have no output buffer, and since the mac802154 xmit() function is designed to block, netif_stop_queue() is called after each packet.

2013-04-07mac802154: Do not try to resend failed packetsAlan Ott
When ops->xmit() fails, drop the packet. Devices which support hardware ack and retry (which include all devices currently supported by mainline), will automatically retry sending the packet (in the hardware) up to 3 times, per the 802.15.4 spec. There is no need, and it is incorrect to try to do it in mac802154. Signed-off-by: Alan Ott <alan@signal11.us> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-11-30mac802154: use kfree_skb() instead of dev_kfree_skb()Alan Ott
kfree_skb() indicates failure, which is where this is being used. Signed-off-by: Alan Ott <alan@signal11.us> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-11-30mac802154: fix memory leaksAlan Ott
kfree_skb() was not getting called in the case of some failures. This was pointed out by Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: Alan Ott <alan@signal11.us> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Conflicts: drivers/net/caif/caif_hsi.c drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c The qmi_wwan merge was trivial. The caif_hsi.c, on the other hand, was not. It's a conflict between 1c385f1fdf6f9c66d982802cd74349c040980b50 ("caif-hsi: Replace platform device with ops structure.") in the net-next tree and commit 39abbaef19cd0a30be93794aa4773c779c3eb1f3 ("caif-hsi: Postpone init of HIS until open()") in the net tree. I did my best with that one and will ask Sjur to check it out. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
