Fixes:
- iwlwifi is an optional driver and should thus not default to 'y'.
- 3945 now depends on IWLCORE.

Rework:
- There is not a case when IWLCORE should not be selected. At the same time
  the driver does not use IWLWIFI or IWLCORE. We can just merge the usage of
  these two. With IWLWIFI being the driver name we proceed to use just it and
  replace instances of IWLCORE with it. The module name does not change
  and is still iwlcore.
- Both IWLAGN and IWL3945 are selecting FW_LOADER, we can thus just move
  this up to one select when IWLWIFI is selected.
- IWL5000 now supports Intel Wireless Wifi 100, 6000, and 6050 series.
- Now that 3945 depends on IWLWIFI we can also indicate its dependency on
  MAC80211_LEDS and LEDS_CLASS at this level.
- IWLAGN_LEDS is not used by driver - remove it.
- IWLAGN_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT actually depends on IWLWIFI as it forms part
  of iwlcore module. Move this config up in Kconfig to reflect that and also
  change name to IWLWIFI_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT.
- CONFIG_IWLWIFI_RFKILL is used by iwlagn as well as iwl3945, add text to
  description that indicates this.
- CONFIG_IWL3945_RFKILL does not exist - remove usage from driver.
- Add "iwlagn" to end of description of IWLAGN to help people understand
  what iwlagn means in rest of Kconfig text.
- Add "iwl3945" to end of description of IWL3945 to help people understand
  what iwlagn means in rest of Kconfig text.
- Change IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS description to indicate that only iwlagn supports

version, it actually stops the AC queue for extended periods of time,
which can be removed by adding buffering internal to mac80211, but is
currently not a huge problem because people rarely use multiple TIDs
that are in the same AC (and iwlwifi currently doesn't operate as AP).

This is a short-term fix, my current medium-term plan, which I hope to
execute soon as well, but am not sure can finish before .30, looks like
this:
 1) rework the internal queuing layer in mac80211 that we use for
    fragments if the driver stopped queue in the middle of a fragmented
    frame to be able to queue more frames at once (rather than just a
    single frame with its fragments)
 2) instead of stopping the entire AC queue, queue up the frames in a
    per-station/per-TID queue during aggregation session initiation,
    when the session has come up take all those frames and put them
    onto the queue from 1)
 3) push the ampdu queue layer abstraction this patch introduces in
    mac80211 into the driver, and remove the virtual queue stuff from
    mac80211 again

This plan will probably also affect ath9k in that mac80211 queues the
frames instead of passing them down, even when there are no ampdu queues.

netlink: change nlmsg_notify() return value logic

This patch changes the return value of nlmsg_notify() as follows:

If NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR is set by any of the listeners and
an error in the delivery happened, return the broadcast error;
else if there are no listeners apart from the socket that
requested a change with the echo flag, return the result of the
unicast notification. Thus, with this patch, the unicast
notification is handled in the same way of a broadcast listener
that has set the NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR socket flag.

This patch is useful in case that the caller of nlmsg_notify()
wants to know the result of the delivery of a netlink notification
(including the broadcast delivery) and take any action in case
that the delivery failed. For example, ctnetlink can drop packets
if the event delivery failed to provide reliable logging and
state-synchronization at the cost of dropping packets.

This patch also modifies the rtnetlink code to ignore the return
value of rtnl_notify() in all callers. The function rtnl_notify()
(before this patch) returned the error of the unicast notification
which makes rtnl_set_sk_err() reports errors to all listeners. This
is not of any help since the origin of the change (the socket that
requested the echoing) notices the ENOBUFS error if the notification
fails and should resync itself.

Josef Drexler [Tue, 24 Feb 2009 13:53:12 +0000 (14:53 +0100)] 
netfilter: xt_recent: fix proc-file addition/removal of IPv4 addresses

Fix regression introduded by commit 079aa88 (netfilter: xt_recent: IPv6 support):

From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12753:

Problem Description:
An uninitialized buffer causes IPv4 addresses added manually (via the +IP
command to the proc interface) to never match any packets. Similarly, the -IP
command fails to remove IPv4 addresses.

Details:
In the function recent_entry_lookup, the xt_recent module does comparisons of
the entire nf_inet_addr union value, both for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. For
addresses initialized from actual packets the remaining 12 bytes not occupied
by the IPv4 are zeroed so this works correctly. However when setting the
nf_inet_addr addr variable in the recent_mt_proc_write function, only the IPv4
bytes are initialized and the remaining 12 bytes contain garbage.

Hence addresses added in this way never match any packets, unless these
uninitialized 12 bytes happened to be zero by coincidence. Similarly, addresses
cannot consistently be removed using the proc interface due to mismatch of the
garbage bytes (although it will sometimes work to remove an address that was
added manually).

Reading the /proc/net/xt_recent/ entries hides this problem because this only
uses the first 4 bytes when displaying IPv4 addresses.

Steps to reproduce:
$ iptables -I INPUT -m recent --rcheck -j LOG
$ echo +169.254.156.239 > /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT

[At this point no packets from 169.254.156.239 are being logged.]

arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.

It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys.  Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making
a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible.

Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in
my testing.

If this module can't load, it is almost certainly because something else
is already bound to that SAP. So in that case, return the same error code
as other SAP usage, and fail the module load.

Also fixes a compiler warning about printk of non const.
