Currently, CTS protection is partially implemented twice:
1. via prism2 ioctls, only used by hostapd
2. via STA beacon parsing, recorded in sta.use_protection but never used
(other than printed in debugfs)
Protection control should be implemented on a per-subif basis. For example,
a single physical device may be running a soft AP on one channel, and a STA
on another. The AP interface should use protection based on what hostapd told
it, and the STA interface should use protection based on beacon parsing.
These should operate independantly: one subif using protection should not
influence the other.
To implement this, I moved the use_protection flag into ieee80211_sub_if_data
and removed the device-global cts_protect_erp_frames flag.
I also made the PRISM2_PARAM_CTS_PROTECT_ERP_FRAMES write operation only
available for AP interfaces, to avoid any possibility of the user messing with
the behaviour of a STA.

The "protection needed" flag is currently parsed out of the ERP IE in
beacons. This patch allows the ERP IE to be available at assocation time
and causes the appropriate actions to be performed earlier.
It is slightly complicated by the fact that most APs don't include the
ERP IE in association responses. To work around this, we store ERP
values in the ieee80211_sta_bss structure.
Also added some WLAN_ERP defines for use by upcoming patches.

For most pre-5705 devices, multiple link interrupts were being generated
for a single physical link change. The source of the interrupts was
determined to be unnecessary toggling of the MAC link polarity bit.
This patch changes the way the link polarity bit gets configured. Where
possible, code that dynamically configures the bit in response to link
changes has been replaced by code that configures the bit once during
initialization time and then leaves the bit alone.
For correctness, this patch also limits the use of the bit to those
devices where it is defined, namely devices before the 5705. This patch
also corrects the link polarity configurations for 5700 devices when
paired against a bcm5411 phy.

Gagan Arneja <gaagaan@gmail.com> pointed out that tg3_reset_task()
could potentially race with another thread calling tg3_full_lock()
such as the ethtool_set_xxx() functions. This may trigger the
BUG_ON() in tg3_irq_quiesce() or cause the irq_sync flag to be out-
of-sync.
I think the easiest way to fix this is to get the tp->lock first
before setting the irq_sync flag. This is safe to do because the
tp->lock is never grabbed by the irq handler. This change will
guarantee that the irq_sync flag updates will be serialized. We also
have to change one spot to call tg3_netif_start() (which clears the
irq_sync flag) before releasing the tp->lock.

The VLAN MAC address handling is broken in multiple ways. When the address
differs when setting it, the real device is put in promiscous mode twice,
but never taken out again. Additionally it doesn't resync when the real
device's address is changed and needlessly puts it in promiscous mode when
the vlan device is still down.
Fix by moving address handling to vlan_dev_open/vlan_dev_stop and properly
deal with address changes in the device notifier. Also switch to
dev_unicast_add (which needs the exact same handling).
Since the set_mac_address handler is identical to the generic ethernet one
with these changes, kill it and use ether_setup().

Throw out the old mark & sweep garbage collector and put in a
refcounting cycle detecting one.
The old one had a race with recvmsg, that resulted in false positives
and hence data loss. The old algorithm operated on all unix sockets
in the system, so any additional locking would have meant performance
problems for all users of these.
The new algorithm instead only operates on "in flight" sockets, which
are very rare, and the additional locking for these doesn't negatively
impact the vast majority of users.
In fact it's probable, that there weren't *any* heavy senders of
sockets over sockets, otherwise the above race would have been
discovered long ago.
The patch works OK with the app that exposed the race with the old
code. The garbage collection has also been verified to work in a few
simple cases.

93ec2c723e applied excessive duct tape to
the netpoll beast's netpoll_cleanup(), thus substituting one leak with
another, and opening up a little buglet :-)
net_device->npinfo (netpoll_info) is a shared and refcounted object and
cannot simply be set NULL the first time netpoll_cleanup() is called.
Otherwise, further netpoll_cleanup()'s see np->dev->npinfo == NULL and
become no-ops, thus leaking. And it's a bug too: the first call to
netpoll_cleanup() would thus (annoyingly) "disable" other (still alive)
netpolls too. Maybe nobody noticed this because netconsole (only user
of netpoll) never supported multiple netpoll objects earlier.
This is a trivial and obvious one-line fixlet.
