While passing, removed even more of the debugfs-based scanning. You can (and

ath5k: work around wrong beacon rx timestamp in IBSS mode
atheros hardware has a problem with the rx timestamp of some IBSS beacons when
they caused a TSF update (they have the same BSSID).
the rx timestamp is wrong especially if the beacon frames get bigger than 78
byte (at least on AR5213 and AR5414 hardware). in that case ath5k_extend_tsf()
will assume a rs_tstamp overflow and give us a timestamp too far in the past
which will cause mac80211 to merge IBSS on every beacon (which is not necessary
since the BSSID already matches). but in this case we know that the HW must
have synced to the beacons TSF and the rx timestamp must be later than that so
we can adjust mactime accordingly.
also rename the function to ath5k_check_ibss_tsf() and change comments, since
"hw merge" is better described as a TSF update.

First, udplite is of such small cost, and it is a core protocol just
like TCP and normal UDP are.
We spent enormous amounts of effort to make udplite share as much code
with core UDP as possible. All of that work is less valuable if we're
just going to slap a config option on udplite support.
It is also causing build failures, as reported on linux-next, showing
that the changeset was not tested very well. In fact, this is the
second build failure resulting from the udplite change.
Finally, the config options provided was a bool, instead of a modular
option. Meaning the udplite code does not even get build tested
by allmodconfig builds, and furthermore the user is not presented
with a reasonable modular build option which is particularly needed
by distribution vendors.

[TIPC]: Enhancements to message header writing
This patch makes two enhancements to the routine used to
set bit fields within a TIPC message header:
1) It now ignores any bits of the new field value that are not
covered by the mask being used. (Previously, if the new value
exceeded the size of the mask the extra bits could corrupt
other fields in the message header word being updated.)
2) The code has been optimized to minimize the number of run-time
endianness conversion operations by leveraging the fact that the
mask (and, in some cases, the value as well) is constant and the
necessary conversion can be performed by the compiler.

zd1211rw: support for mesh interface and beaconing
The previously unused CR_CAM_MODE register is set to MODE_AP_WDS. This makes the
driver ack mesh (WDS) frames. It does not affect Infra functionality of the
driver.
Previously missing beaconing support has been added. This might also help
implement a currently missing ah-hoc mode.
Support for interrupts from the device have been added, but we are not handling
most of them.
Mesh interfaces are considered associated as long as the interface is up.

mac80211: remove STA entries when taking down interface
When we take down an interface, we need to remove the STA info
items that belong to it because otherwise we might invoke a
sta_notify() callback in the driver when we later delete the
STA entries, but in that case the driver will already have
removed its knowledge of the interface they belonged to leading
to confusion. Also, we could invoke the set_tim() callback after
the driver removed its knowledge of the interface, which can
lead to a crash if it requests a beacon with a then-invalid vif
pointer!
A side effect of this patch is that, because it was easier, it
disallows changing the WDS peer while an interface is up. Should
that actually be necessary, it can be added back, but the WDS
peer STA entry may not be added while the interface is UP so for
now I've simplified the WDS peer's STA entry lifetime management.

If the path is determined to be active within a rcu context we can safely
