b43: Fix possible MMIO access while device is down
This fixes a possible MMIO access while the device is still down
from a suspend cycle. MMIO accesses with the device powered down
may cause crashes on certain devices.
b43: Do not return TX_BUSY from op_tx
Never return TX_BUSY from op_tx. It doesn't make sense to return
TX_BUSY, if we can not transmit the packet.
Drop the packet and return TX_OK.
This will fix the resume hang.
b43: Fix noise calculation WARN_ON
This removes a WARN_ON that is responsible for the following koops:
http://www.kerneloops.org/searchweek.php?search=b43_generate_noise_sample
The comment in the patch describes why it's safe to simply remove
the check.
b43: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference in DMA code
This fixes a possible NULL pointer dereference in an error path of the
DMA allocation error checking code. This is also necessary for a future
DMA API change that is on its way into the mainline kernel that adds
an additional dev parameter to dma_mapping_error().
This patch moves the whole struct b43_dmaring struct initialization
right before any DMA allocation operation.
b43: Fix controller restart crash
This fixes a kernel crash on rmmod, in the case where the controller
was restarted before doing the rmmod.
b43: Fix some TX/RX locking issues
This fixes some TX/RX related locking issues.
With this patch applied, some of the PHY transmission errors are fixed.
b43: Workaround DMA quirks
Some mainboards/CPUs don't allow DMA masks bigger than a certain limit.
Some VIA crap^h^h^h^hdevices have an upper limit of 0xFFFFFFFF. So in this
case a 64-bit b43 device would always fail to acquire the mask.
Implement a workaround to fallback to lower DMA mask, as we can always
also support a lower mask.
b43: Workaround invalid bluetooth settings
This adds a workaround for invalid bluetooth SPROM settings
on ASUS PCI cards.
This will stop the microcode from poking with the BT GPIO line.
This fixes data transmission on this device, as the BT GPIO line
is used for something TX related on this device
(probably the power amplifier or the radio).
This also adds a modparam knob to help debugging this in the future,
as more devices with this bug may show up.

b43: Fix HostFlags data types
The HostFlags are a bitmask of 48bit. So we must use an u64 datatype
to hold all bits.
