"cfg80211: add assert_cfg80211_lock() to ensure proper protection"
added assert_cfg80211_lock() calls into various places. At least
one of them, nl80211_send_wiphy(), should not have been there. That
triggers the BUG_ON in assert_cfg80211_lock() and pretty much kills
the kernel whenever someone runs hostapd.. Remove that call and make
assert_cfg80211_lock() use WARN_ON instead of BUG_ON to be a bit more
friendly to users.

It was not a good idea to do a TSF reset on strange IBSS merges to the same BSSID. For example it will break the TSF sync of ath9k completely and it is unnecessary as all hardware I have tested do a TSF sync to a higher value automatically and IBSS merges are only done to higher TSF values. It only need a TSF reset to accept a lower value, when the IBSS network is changed manually.

Do this by indicating the end of the appropriate regions of memory.
Note that MAX_PDA_SIZE should only apply to the PDA block read from
flash/EEPROM, and has been erronously applied to the pdr elements.
Remove the macro, and use the actual PDA size passed down by the caller.
We also fix up some of the types used, marking as much as possible
const, and using void* for the end pointers.

However, some may be extraneous.
The cancel_delayed_work call is probably the most necessary. The
device_unplugged check may not be necessary. del_timer_sync may not
be necessary either, but the Oops I was receiving was related to

If we are roaming we allow to follow beacon hints.
Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com>
Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
When devices are world roaming they cannot beacon or do active scan
on 5 GHz or on channels 12, 13 and 14 on the 2 GHz band. Although
we have a good regulatory API some cards may _always_ world roam, this
is also true when a system does not have CRDA present. Devices doing world
roaming can still passive scan, if they find a beacon from an AP on
one of the world roaming frequencies we make the assumption we can do
the same and we also remove the passive scan requirement.
This adds support for providing beacon regulatory hints based on scans.
This works for devices that do either hardware or software scanning.
If a channel has not yet been marked as having had a beacon present
on it we queue the beacon hint processing into the workqueue.
All wireless devices will benefit from beacon regulatory hints from
any wireless device on a system including new devices connected to
the system at a later time.

The current static world regulatory domain is too restrictive,
we can use some 5 GHz channels world wide so long as they do not
touch frequencies which require DFS. The compromise is we must
also enforce passive scanning and disallow usage of a mode of
operation that beacons: (AP | IBSS | Mesh)

We were not protecting last_request there is a small possible race
between an 11d hint and another routine which calls reset_regdomains()
which can prevent a valid country IE from being processed. This is
not critical as it will still be procesed soon after but locking prior
to it is correct.

Calling kobject_uevent_env() can fail mainly due to out of
memory conditions. We do not want to continue during such
conditions so propagate that as well instead of letting
cfg80211 load as if everything is peachy.
Additionally lets clarify that when CRDA is not called during
cfg80211's initialization _and_ if the error is not an -ENOMEM
its because kobject_uevent_env() failed to call CRDA, not because
CRDA failed. For those who want to find out why we also let you
do so by enabling the kernel config CONFIG_CFG80211_REG_DEBUG --
you'll get an actual stack trace.
So for now we'll treat non -ENOMEM kobject_uevent_env() failures as
non fatal during cfg80211's initialization.

If cfg80211 is built into the kernel there is perhaps a small
time window betwen nl80211_init() and regulatory_init() where
cfg80211_regdomain hasn't yet been initialized to let the
wireless core do its work. During that rare case and time
frame (if its even possible) we don't allow user regulatory
changes as cfg80211 is working on enabling its first regulatory
domain.
To check for cfg80211_regdomain we now contend the entire operation
using the cfg80211_mutex.
