2014-05-19cfg80211: constify wowlan/coalesce mask/pattern pointersJohannes Berg
This requires changing the nl80211 parsing code a bit to use intermediate pointers for the allocation, but clarifies the API towards the drivers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-05-19cfg80211: constify more pointers in the cfg80211 APIJohannes Berg
This also propagates through the drivers. The orinoco driver uses the cfg80211 API structs for internal bookkeeping, and so needs a (void *) cast that removes the const - but that's OK because it allocates those pointers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2014-05-16mwifiex: restore current SDIO write port in failure casesAvinash Patil
During SDIO MP aggregation, we at first acquire current write port to write data onto and then proceed with using this port for SDIO write. If error occurs later in mwifiex_write_data_sync because device is suspended or SDIO write failure, we do not restore current write port and write bitmap. This results into leaking one port and hole in SDIO write port bitmap. Restore current write port and reset bitmap accordingly in failure cases to avoid this.
