ath9k: fix ad-hoc mode beacon selection

In ad-hoc mode, beacon timers are configured differently compared to AP
mode, and (depending on the scenario) can vary enough to make the beacon
tasklet not detect slot 0 based on the TSF.
Since staggered beacons are not (and cannot be) used in ad-hoc mode, it
makes more sense to just hardcode slot 0 here, avoiding unnecessary
TSF reads and calculations.

cfg80211: Use consistent BSS matching between scan and sme

cfg80211 scan code adds separate BSS entries if the same BSS shows up
on multiple channels. However, sme implementation does not use the
frequency when fetching the BSS entry. Fix this by adding channel

calls.

Please note that drivers using cfg80211_roamed() need to be modified to
fully implement this fix. This commit includes only minimal changes to
avoid compilation issues; it maintains the old (broken) behavior for

Johannes Berg [Fri, 13 May 2011 08:58:57 +0000 (10:58 +0200)]
cfg80211: advertise possible interface combinations

Add the ability to advertise interface combinations in nl80211.
This allows the driver to indicate what the combinations are
that it supports. "Combinations" of just a single interface are
implicit, as previously. Note that cfg80211 will enforce that
the restrictions are met, but not for all drivers yet (once all
drivers are updated, we can remove the flag and enforce for all).

When no combinations are actually supported, an empty list will
be exported so that userspace can know if the kernel exported
this info or not (although it isn't clear to me what tools using
the info should do if the kernel didn't export it).

Since some interface types are purely virtual/software and don't
fit the restrictions, those are exposed in a new list of pure SW
types, not subject to restrictions. This mainly exists to handle
AP-VLAN and monitor interfaces in mac80211.

iwlagn: support multiple TBs per command

The current "huge" command handling is a bit
confusing, and very limited since only one
command may be huge at a time. Additionally,
we often copy data around quite pointlessly
since we could instead map the existing scan
buffer for example and use it directly.

This patch makes that possible. The first
change is that multiple buffers may be given
to each command (this change was prepared
earlier so callsites don't need to change).
Each of those can be mapped attached to a TB
in the TFD, and the command header can use a
TB (the first one) in the TFD as well.

Doing this allows getting rid of huge commands
in favour of mapping existing buffers. The
beacon transmission is also optimised to not
copy the SKB at all but use multiple TBs.

mac80211: make key locking clearer

The code in ieee80211_del_key() doesn't acquire the
key_mtx properly when it dereferences the keys. It
turns out that isn't actually necessary since the
key_mtx itself seems to be redundant since all key
manipulations are done under the RTNL, but as long
