2015-01-23atmel: Remove open-coded and wrong strcasecmpRasmus Villemoes
The kernel's string library does in fact have strcasecmp, at least since ded220bd8f08 ("[STRING]: Move strcasecmp/strncasecmp to lib/string.c"). Moreover, this open-coded version is in fact wrong: If the strings only differ in their last character, a and b have already been incremented to point to the terminating NUL bytes, so they would wrongly be treated as equal.

2015-01-23wcn36xx: initiate TX BA sessionsBob Copeland
Currently, wcn36xx only asks for a TX BA session if it has already established one for RX.

2015-01-23dm cache: fix problematic dual use of a single migration count variableJoe Thornber
Introduce a new variable to count the number of allocated migration structures. The existing variable cache->nr_migrations became overloaded. It was used to: i) track of the number of migrations in flight for the purposes of quiescing during suspend. ii) to estimate the amount of background IO occuring. Recent discard changes meant that REQ_DISCARD bios are processed with a migration. Discards are not background IO so nr_migrations was not incremented. However this could cause quiescing to complete early. (i) is now handled with a new variable cache->nr_allocated_migrations. cache->nr_migrations has been renamed cache->nr_io_migrations. cleanup_migration() is now called free_io_migration(), since it decrements that variable. Also, remove the unused cache->next_migration variable that got replaced with with prealloc_structs a while ago.

2015-01-23dm cache: share cache-metadata object across inactive and active DM tablesJoe Thornber
If a DM table is reloaded with an inactive table when the device is not suspended (normal procedure for LVM2), then there will be two dm-bufio objects that can diverge. This can lead to a situation where the inactive table uses bufio to read metadata at the same time the active table writes metadata -- resulting in the inactive table having stale metadata buffers once it is promoted to the active table slot. Fix this by using reference counting and a global list of cache metadata objects to ensure there is only one metadata object per metadata device.

2015-01-23mac80211: only roll back station states for WDS when suspendingLuciano Coelho
In normal cases (i.e. when we are fully associated), cfg80211 takes care of removing all the stations before calling suspend in mac80211. But in the corner case when we suspend during authentication or association, mac80211 needs to roll back the station states. But we shouldn't roll back the station states in the suspend function, because this is taken care of in other parts of the code, except for WDS interfaces. For AP types of interfaces, cfg80211 takes care of disconnecting all stations before calling the driver's suspend code. For station interfaces, this is done in the quiesce code. For WDS interfaces we still need to do it here, so move the code into a new switch case for WDS.

Commit 0dbc6078c06bc0 ('x86, build, pci: Fix PCI_MSI build on !SMP') introduced the dependency that X86_UP_APIC is only available when PCI_MSI is false. This effectively prevents PCI_MSI support on 32bit UP systems because it disables both APIC and IO-APIC. But APIC support is architecturally required for PCI_MSI. The intention of the patch was to enforce APIC support when PCI_MSI is enabled, but failed to do so. Remove the !PCI_MSI dependency from X86_UP_APIC and enforce X86_UP_APIC when PCI_MSI support is enabled on 32bit UP systems.

2015-01-22igb: Indicate failure on vf reset for empty mac addressAlexander Graf
Commit 5ac6f91d changed the igb driver to expose a zero (empty) mac address to the VF on reset rather than a random one. However, that behavioral change also requires igbvf driver changes which can be hard especially when we want to talk to proprietary guest OSs. Looking at the code previous to the commit in Linux that made igbvf work with empty mac addresses (8d56b6d), we can see that on reset failure the driver will try to generate a new mac address with both the old and the new code. Furthermore, ixgbe does send reset failure when it detects an empty mac address (35055928c). So I think it's safe to make igb behave the same. With this patch I can successfully run a Windows 8.1 guest with an empty mac address and an assigned igbvf device that has no mac address set by the host. If anyone is aware of a guest driver that chokes on NACK returns of VF RESET commands, please speak up.
