Firmware versions before 41 don't support the GEO_TX_POWER_LIMIT
command, and sending it to the firmware will cause a firmware crash.
We allow this via debugfs, so we need to return an error value in case
it's not supported.
This had already been fixed during init, when we send the command if
the ACPI WGDS table is present. Fix it also for the other,
userspace-triggered case.

On older NICs, we occasionally see issues with A-MSDU support,
where the commands in the FIFO get confused and then we see an
assert EDC because the next command in the FIFO isn't TX.
We've tried to isolate this issue and understand where it comes
from, but haven't found any errors in building the A-MSDU in
software.
At least for now, disable A-MSDU support on older hardware so
that users can use it again without fearing the assert.

Commit 63d7ef3610 ("mwifiex: Don't abort on small, spec-compliant
vendor IEs") adjusted the ieee_types_vendor_header struct, which
inadvertently messed up the offsets used in
mwifiex_is_wpa_oui_present(). Add that offset back in, mirroring
mwifiex_is_rsn_oui_present().
As it stands, commit 63d7ef3610 breaks compatibility with WPA (not
WPA2) 802.11n networks, since we hit the "info: Disable 11n if AES is
not supported by AP" case in mwifiex_is_network_compatible().

In hwsim_dump_radio_nl(), when genlmsg_put() on line 3617 fails, hdr is
assigned to NULL. Then hdr is used on lines 3622 and 3623:
genl_dump_check_consistent(cb, hdr);
genlmsg_end(skb, hdr);
Thus, possible null-pointer dereferences may occur.
To fix these bugs, hdr is used here when it is not NULL.

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value. This driver was saving the debugfs file away to be
removed at a later time. However, the 80211 core would delete the whole
directory that the debugfs files are created in, after it asks the
driver to do the deletion, so just rely on the 80211 core to do all of
the cleanup for us, making us not need to keep a pointer to the dentries
around at all.
This cleans up the structure of the driver data a bit and makes the code
a tiny bit smaller.

Firmware crash is a pretty rare event and can't happen too frequently as
it has to be followed by a hardware reinitialization and config reload.
It should be safe to don't use net_ratelimit() when it happens.
For reporting & debugging purposes it's important to provide a complete

modifies brcmfmac to print all messages in an unlimited way in that

Testing with RTL8822BE hardware, when available memory is low, we
frequently see a kernel panic and system freeze.
First, rtw_pci_rx_isr encounters a memory allocation failure (trimmed):

kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:105!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
RIP: 0010:skb_panic+0x43/0x45
When skb allocation fails and the "rx routine starvation" is hit, the
function returns immediately without updating the RX ring. At this
point, the RX ring may continue referencing an old skb which was already
handed off to ieee80211_rx_irqsafe(). When it comes to be used again,
bad things happen.
This patch allocates a new, data-sized skb first in RX ISR. After
copying the data in, we pass it to the upper layers. However, if skb
allocation fails, we effectively drop the frame. In both cases, the
original, full size ring skb is reused.
In addition, to fixing the kernel crash, the RX routine should now
generally behave better under low memory conditions.

The WiFi tx power of RTL8723BU is extremely low after booting. So
the WiFi scan gives very limited AP list and it always fails to
connect to the selected AP. This module only supports 1x1 antenna
and the antenna is switched to bluetooth due to some incorrect
register settings.
Compare with the vendor driver https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723bu,
we realized that the 8723bu's enable_rf() does the same thing as
rtw_btcoex_HAL_Initialize() in vendor driver. And it by default
sets the antenna path to BTC_ANT_PATH_BT which we verified it's
the cause of the wifi weak tx power. The vendor driver will set
the antenna path to BTC_ANT_PATH_PTA in the consequent btcoexist
mechanism, by the function halbtc8723b1ant_PsTdma.
This commit hand over the antenna control to PTA(Packet Traffic
Arbitration), which compares the weight of bluetooth/wifi traffic
then determine whether to continue current wifi traffic or not.
After PTA take control, The wifi signal will be back to normal and
the bluetooth scan can also work at the same time. However, the
btcoexist still needs to be handled under different circumstances.
If there's a BT connection established, the wifi still fails to
connect until BT disconnected.

Since commit ed194d1367 ("usb: core: remove local_irq_save() around
->complete() handler") the handler rt2x00usb_interrupt_rxdone() is
not running with interrupts disabled anymore. So this completion handler
is not guaranteed to run completely before workqueue processing starts
for the same queue entry.
Be sure to set all other flags in the entry correctly before marking
this entry ready for workqueue processing. This way we cannot miss error
conditions that need to be signalled from the completion handler to the
worker thread.
Note that rt2x00usb_work_rxdone() processes all available entries, not
only such for which queue_work() was called.
This patch is similar to what commit df71c9cfce ("rt2x00: fix order
of entry flags modification") did for TX processing.
This fixes a regression on a RT5370 based wifi stick in AP mode, which
suddenly stopped data transmission after some period of heavy load. Also
stopping the hanging hostapd resulted in the error message "ieee80211
phy0: rt2x00queue_flush_queue: Warning - Queue 14 failed to flush".
Other operation modes are probably affected as well, this just was
the used testcase.
