a33d402610 cfg80211: fix compilation warning for cfg80211_leave_all()
The following compilation issue popped up moving from v3.10-rc1 to
v3.10-rc6 after merging wireless-testing.

net/wireless/sysfs.c:86:13: error: 'cfg80211_leave_all' defined
but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

The function is only called when CONFIG_PM is enabled. Moving the
function under CONFIG_PM as well.

The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right
next to the deletion of another option.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the
handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action().

Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically
keep everything in both conflict hunks.

The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved.  In 'net' we added a
dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that
Linus reported.  Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted
to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine
whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation.

However, the dump handlers to not use this logic.  Instead they have
to explicitly do the locking.  There were apparent bugs in the
conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the
RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should
be doing so.  So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes.

To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try
to allocate 'tb'.

f1940c5730 cfg80211: hold BSS over association process
This fixes the potential issue that the BSS struct that we use
and later assign to wdev->current_bss is removed from the scan
list while associating.

Also warn when we don't have a BSS struct in connect_result
unless it's from a driver that only has the connect() API.

959867fa55 cfg80211: require passing BSS struct back to cfg80211_assoc_timeout
Doing so will allow us to hold the BSS (not just ref it) over the
association process, thus ensuring that it doesn't time out and
gets invisible to the user (e.g. in 'iw wlan0 link'.)

This also fixes a leak in mac80211 where it doesn't always release
the BSS struct properly in all cases where calling this function.
This leak was reported by Ben Greear.

86e8cf98de nl80211: use small state buffer for wiphy_dump
Avoid parsing the original dump message again and again by
allocating a small state struct that is used by the functions
involved in the dump, storing this struct in cb->args[0].
This reduces the memory allocation size as well.

3a5a423bb9 nl80211: fix attrbuf access race by allocating a separate one
Since my commit 3713b4e364 ("nl80211: allow splitting wiphy
information in dumps"), nl80211_dump_wiphy() uses the global
nl80211_fam.attrbuf for parsing the incoming data. This wouldn't
be a problem if it only did so on the first dump iteration which
is locked against other commands in generic netlink, but due to
space constraints in cb->args (the needed state doesn't fit) I
decided to always parse the original message. That's racy though
since nl80211_fam.attrbuf could be used by some other parsing in
generic netlink concurrently.

For now, fix this by allocating a separate parse buffer (it's a
bit too big for the stack, currently 1448 bytes on 64-bit). For
-next, I'll change the code to parse into the global buffer in
the first round only and then allocate a smaller buffer to keep
the data in cb->args.

8e7c053853 {nl,cfg}80211: make peer link expiration time configurable
If a STA has a peer that it hasn't seen any tx activity
from for a certain length of time, the peer link is
expired. This means the inactive STA is removed from the
list of peers and that STA is not considered a peer again
unless it re-peers.  Previously, this inactivity time was
always 30 minutes.  Now, add it to the mesh configuration
and allow it to be configured.  Retain 30 minutes as a
default value.

This merge commit includes a change from Emil Goode

have been introduced by this merge.  Specifically it
fixes the pingv6_ops method ipv6_chk_addr() to add a
"const" to the "struct net_device *dev" argument and
likewise update the dummy_ipv6_chk_addr() declaration.

The change to use atomic_inc_return() for assigning the wiphy

but we all habitually type "phy0" when we're testing, so make
it go back to 0 instead of 1 by subtracting 1 from the index.

256c90dedf cfg80211: fix potential deadlock regression
My big locking cleanups caused a problem by registering the
rfkill instance with the RTNL held, while the callback also
acquires the RTNL. This potentially causes a deadlock since
the two locks used (rfkill mutex and RTNL) can be acquired
in two different orders. Fix this by (un)registering rfkill
without holding the RTNL. This needs to be done after the
device struct is registered, but that can also be done w/o
holding the RTNL.

ceca7b7121 cfg80211: separate internal SME implementation
The current internal SME implementation in cfg80211 is
very mixed up with the MLME handling, which has been
causing issues for a long time. There are three things
that the implementation has to provide:
 * a basic SME implementation for nl80211's connect()
   call (for drivers implementing auth/assoc, which is
   really just mac80211) and wireless extensions
 * MLME events for the userspace SME
 * SME events (connected, disconnected etc.) for all
   different SME implementation possibilities (driver,
   cfg80211 and userspace)

To achieve these goals it isn't necessary to track the
software SME's connection status outside of it's state
(which is the part that caused many issues.) Instead,
track it only in the SME data (wdev->conn) and in the
general case only track whether the wdev is connected
or not (via wdev->current_bss.)

Also separate the internal implementation to not have
callbacks from the SME events, but rather call it from
the API functions that the driver (or rather mac80211)
calls. This separates the code better.
