8cc20198cf netfilter: nf_conntrack: death_by_timeout() fix
death_by_timeout() might delete a conntrack from hash list
and insert it in dying list.

 nf_ct_delete_from_lists(ct);
 nf_ct_insert_dying_list(ct);

I believe a (lockless) reader could *catch* ct while doing a lookup
and miss the end of its chain.
(nulls lookup algo must check the null value at the end of lookup and
should restart if the null value is not the expected one.
cf Documentation/RCU/rculist_nulls.txt for details)

We need to change nf_conntrack_init_net() and use a different "null" value,
guaranteed not being used in regular lists. Choose very large values, since
hash table uses [0..size-1] null values.

Loosen that restriction to match the gadget driver driver.
This will various PXA 27x and PXA 3xx devices happier when

73e42897e8 ipv4: fix NULL pointer + success return in route lookup path
Don't drop route if we're not caching	

	I recently got a report of an oops on a route lookup.  Maxime was
testing what would happen if route caching was turned off (doing so by setting
making rt_caching always return 0), and found that it triggered an oops.  I
looked at it and found that the problem stemmed from the fact that the route
lookup routines were returning success from their lookup paths (which is good),
but never set the **rp pointer to anything (which is bad).  This happens because
in rt_intern_hash, if rt_caching returns false, we call rt_drop and return 0.
This almost emulates slient success.  What we should be doing is assigning *rp =
rt and _not_ dropping the route.  This way, during slow path lookups, when we
create a new route cache entry, we don't immediately discard it, rather we just
don't add it into the cache hash table, but we let this one lookup use it for
the purpose of this route request.  Maxime has tested and reports it prevents
the oops.  There is still a subsequent routing issue that I'm looking into
further, but I'm confident that, even if its related to this same path, this
patch makes sense to take.

a97f4424fb cfg80211: validate station settings
When I disallowed interfering with stations on non-AP interfaces,
I not only forget mesh but also managed interfaces which need
this for the authorized flag. Let's actually validate everything
properly.

This fixes an nl80211 regression introduced by the interfering,
under which wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 could not properly connect.

eab0cd493c ath5k: fix beacon_int handling
73ca520336
(ath5k: remove conf->beacon_int usage)
removed bintval setting from ath5k_config. We need to init the
interval earlier and don't touch it in add_interface anymore.

Otherwise it will be set only once by upper layer through
bss_info_changed but not on second and further hostap executions.

We ended up having bintval 1000 which rendered the AP useless on
many clients.

464902e812 rfkill: export persistent attribute in sysfs
This information allows userspace to implement a hybrid policy where
it can store the rfkill soft-blocked state in platform non-volatile
storage if available, and if not then file-based storage can be used.

Some users prefer platform non-volatile storage because of the behaviour
when dual-booting multiple versions of Linux, or if the rfkill setting
is changed in the BIOS setting screens, or if the BIOS responds to
wireless-toggle hotkeys itself before the relevant platform driver has
been loaded.

96e9cfeb96 eeepc-laptop: read rfkill soft-blocked state on resume
This will respect state changes over hibernation, e.g. if the user
disables the wireless in the BIOS setup screen.

It reveals an issue where ACPI silently kills the wireless on
suspend.  Normally, the BIOS restores the correct state from
non-volatile storage on boot.  But when hibernation is aborted,
the wireless would remain killed.  Fortunately we can work around
this in the resume handler by simply writing back the same value we
read from NVS.

06d5caf47e rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices
The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using
a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing
rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration.

Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding
another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon.
If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod
rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state.

Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user
experience.  For example, they can avoid the above problem if they
toggle devices individually.  Then there would be no "global state"
to get out of sync.

Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked
state.  thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume.
eeepc-laptop will require modification.
