The EEPROM contains a field that can restrict the number of hardware queues,
however this is not only useless (all the known chips contain the same
number of hardware queues), but also potentially dangerous in case of a
misprogrammed EEPROM (could trigger driver crashes), so let's just ignore
it completely.

Stuck beacon detection is supposed to trigger when 9 consecutive beacons
could not be sent by the hardware. When the driver runs only one active
AP mode interface, it still configures the hardware beacon timer for
4 (ATH_BCBUF) beacon slots slots, which causes stuck beacon detection
to be reset if ath9k_hw_stoptxdma clears the stuck frames between
SWBA intervals.
Fix this by not resetting the missed beacon count for empty slots and
multiplying the threshold not by the maximum number of beacon slots
but by the configured number of beacon interfaces.

AP mode beacon timers in ath9k are configured in milliseconds, which breaks
when increasing ATH_BCBUF to 8 instead of 4 (due to rounding errors).
Since the hardware timers are actually configured in microseconds, it's
better to let the driver use that unit directly.
To be able to do that, the beacon interval parameter abuse for passing
certain flags needs to be removed. This is easy to do, because those flags
are completely unnecessary anyway. ATH9K_BEACON_ENA is ignored,
ATH9K_BEACON_RESET_TSF can be replaced with calling ath9k_hw_reset_tsf
from the driver directly.

Most AR9100 devices already have a chainmask of 7 (three antennas), however
on the ones that don't (rx and tx chainmask set to 5), problems with IQ
mismatch calibration have been observed.
This shows up as tx queue hangs (and subsequent hardware resets) if traffic
is sent during this type of calibration.
Forcing the rx chainmask to 7 fixes the calibration issues with no apparent
negative side effects on throughput and stability.

Fine-tuning register write operation and avoid unnecessay
delays for ath9k_htc driver, saves hw reset time which
improves scanning time and also solves one of the following
scenario.
Sometimes the ACK is sent by STA for assoc response is not
seen at AP side. So the AP continues to send retry assoc
responses. At the STA side, since the assoc response was
already forwarded to mac80211, it proceeded to channel change
which in turns does chip reset.
In most of the cases the chip reset was completed before
max retries are reached at AP side. Hence STA can able to ACK
the retried frames again. But in clear environment these retries
are completed within shortspan of time.
Since ath9k_htc consumes more time for hw reset, this latency
is causing dissociation by AP due to max reties are reached.
This issue was originally reported with Cisco Aironet 1250 AP
in HT40 mode in noise free environment.

Allow:
perf script -f <fields>
to be equivalent to:
perf script -f trace:<fields> -f sw:<fields> -f hw:<fields>
i.e., the specified fields apply to all event types if the type string
is not given.
The field (-f) arguments are processed in the order received. A later
usage can reset a prior request. e.g.,
-f trace: -f comm,tid,time,sym
The first -f suppresses trace events (field list is ""), but then the second
invocation sets the fields to comm,tid,time,sym. In this case a warning is
given to the user:
"Overriding previous field request for all events."
Alternativey, consider the order:
-f comm,tid,time,sym -f trace:
The first -f sets the fields for all events and the second -f suppresses trace
events. The user is given a warning message about the override, and the result
of the above is that only S/W and H/W events are displayed with the given
fields.
For the 'wildcard' option if a user selected field is invalid for an event
type, a message is displayed to the user that the option is ignored for that
type. For example:
perf script -f comm,tid,trace 2>&1 | less
'trace' not valid for hardware events. Ignoring.
'trace' not valid for software events. Ignoring.
Alternatively, if the type is given an invalid field is specified it is an
error. For example:
perf script -v -f sw:comm,tid,trace 2>&1 | less
'trace' not valid for software events.
At this point usage is displayed, and perf-script exits.
Finally, a user may not set fields to none for all event types.
i.e., -f "" is not allowed.

- commit eead4d5c63 ("powerpc: qe_ic: Rename get_irq_desc_data and
get_irq_desc_chip") made the helper functions use
irq_desc_get_handler_data() instead of the legacy (and no longer
existing) get_irq_desc_data.
- commit d4db35e8dc ("powerpc/qe_ic: Fix another breakage from the
irq_data conversion") used irq_desc_get_chip_data() instead.
According to Thomas, the former is the correct direct conversion, but it
does look like both should work (arch/powerpc/sysdev/qe_lib/qe_ic.c
seems to initialize both to the same thing), and the chip data in some
ways is the more logical. Somebody should really decide on one of the
other.
This merge picks irq_desc_get_handler_data() as the straightforward pure
conversion to new names, as per Thomas.
git commit 9be4d45759 (xen: add
extra pages to balloon) splited balloon_append() into two functions
(balloon_append() and __balloon_append()) and left decrementation
of totalram_pages counter in __balloon_append(). In this situation
if __balloon_append() is called on i386 with highmem page referenced
then totalhigh_pages is decremented, however, it should not. This
patch corrects that issue and moves dec_totalhigh_pages() from
__balloon_append() to balloon_append(). Now totalram_pages and
totalhigh_pages are decremented simultaneously only when
balloon_append() is called.
