Partial revert "Basic kernel memory functionality for the Memory Controller"
This reverts commit
e5671dfae59b165e2adfd4dfbdeab11ac8db5bda.
After a follow up discussion with Michal, it was agreed it would
be better to leave the kmem controller with just the tcp files,
deferring the behavior of the other general memory.kmem.* files
for a later time, when more caches are controlled. This is because
generic kmem files are not used by tcp accounting and it is
not clear how other slab caches would fit into the scheme.
We are reverting the original commit so we can track the reference.
Part of the patch is kept, because it was used by the later tcp
code. Conflicts are shown in the bottom. init/Kconfig is removed from
the revert entirely.

sch_sfq: rehash queues in perturb timer
A known Out Of Order (OOO) problem hurts SFQ when timer changes
perturbation value, since all new packets delivered to SFQ enqueue might
end on different slots than previous in-flight packets.
With round robin delivery, we can thus deliver packets in a different
order.
Since SFQ is limited to small amount of in-flight packets, we can rehash
packets so that this OOO problem is fixed.
This rehashing is performed only if internal flow classifier is in use.
We now store in skb->cb[] the "struct flow_keys" so that we dont call
skb_flow_dissect() again while rehashing.

cfg80211: allow following country IE power for custom regdom cards
By definition WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY was intended to allow the
wiphy to adjust itself to the country IE power information if the
card had no regulatory data but we had no way to tell cfg80211 that if
the card also had its own custom regulatory domain (these are typically
custom world regulatory domains) that we want to follow the country IE's
noted values for power for each channel. We add support for this and
document it.
This is not a critical fix but a performance optimization for cards
with custom regulatory domains that associate to an AP with sends
out country IEs with a higher EIRP than the one on the custom
regulatory domain. In practice the only driver affected right now
are the Atheros drivers as they are the only drivers using both
WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY and WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY --
used on cards that have an Atheros world regulatory domain. Cards
that have been programmed to follow a country specifically will not
follow the country IE power. So although not a stable fix distributions

ath9k: change maximum software retransmission handling
Instead of limiting a subframe to 10 A-MPDU software transmission attempts,
count hardware retransmissions as well and raise the limit a bit. That way
there will be fewer software retransmission attempts when traffic suffers
from lots of hardware retransmissions.

mac80211: Use appropriate TID for sending BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames
Currently BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames are always sent using AC_VO. If
the TID for which a BA session is established is assigned to a different

BA session.
Hence, always put BA session related frames into the same queue as the

mac80211: reduce station management complexity
Now that IBSS no longer needs to insert stations
from atomic context, we can get rid of all the
special cases for that, and even get rid of the
sta_lock (though it needs to stay as tim_lock.)
This makes the station management code much more
straight-forward.

mac80211: delay IBSS station insertion
In order to notify drivers and simplify the station
management code, defer IBSS station insertion to a
work item and don't do it directly while receiving
a frame.
This increases the complexity in IBSS a little bit,
but it's pretty straight forward and it allows us
to reduce the station management complexity (next
patch) considerably.

mac80211: count authorized stations per BSS
Currently, each AP interface will send multicast
traffic if any interface has a station entry even
if that station entry is allocated only. With the
new station state management we can easily fix it
by adding a counter that counts each authorized
station only and send multicast traffic only when
the correct interface has at least one authorized
station.

mac80211: refactor station state transitions
Station entries can have various states, the most
important ones being auth, assoc and authorized.
This patch prepares us for telling the driver about
these states, we don't want to confuse drivers with
strange transitions, so with this we enforce that
they move in the right order between them (back and
forth); some transitions might happen before the
driver even knows about the station, but at least
runtime transitions will be ordered correctly.
As a consequence, IBSS and MESH stations will now
have the ASSOC flag set (so they can transition to
AUTHORIZED), and we can get rid of a special case
in TX processing.
When freeing a station, unwind the state so that
other parts of the code (or drivers later) can rely
on the transitions.

The nl80211 station handling code is a bit messy
and doesn't do a lot of validation. It seems like
this could be an issue for drivers that don't use
mac80211 to validate everything.
As cfg80211 doesn't keep station state, move the
validation of allowing supported_rates to change
for TDLS only in station mode to mac80211.
