2012-12-07rtl8187: remove __dev* attributesBill Pemberton1-3/+3
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As result the __dev* markings will be going away. Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit.

This structure needs to always stick around, even if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is disabled, otherwise we can oops when trying to probe a device that was added after the structure is thrown away.

2012-07-31mac80211: move TX station pointer and restructure TXThomas Huehn1-2/+4
Remove the control.sta pointer from ieee80211_tx_info to free up sufficient space in the TX skb control buffer for the upcoming Transmit Power Control (TPC). Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.

We deleted a staging driver, which was nice, and finally dropped the obsolete usbfs code, which will make Al happy to never have to touch that again.

2012-05-19USB: Disable hub-initiated LPM for comms devices.Sarah Sharp1-0/+1
Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices. Comms devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished. Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state, using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their data transfer. If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of receiving data. Worse, some devices might blindly accept the hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the middle of receiving a transmission. The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host. In order to keep the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the same in Linux. Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications drivers. I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

This converts the drivers in drivers/net/* to use the module_usb_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit simpler.

The driver for the RTL8187L chips returns IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK for all packets, even if the maximum number of retries was exhausted. In addition it fails to setup max_rates in the ieee80211_hw struct, This behavior may be responsible for the problems noted in Bug 14168.

2011-02-25mac80211: make tx() operation return voidJohannes Berg1-4/+2
The return value of the tx operation is commonly misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and they must also properly manage the queues (if they didn't, mac80211 would already warn). Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY value also allows significant cleanups of the TX TX handling code in mac80211. Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the old "return -1" there was wrong.
