      This bug has introduced/exposed due to recent patch in which we
      cancel pending commands before suspend (using hs_enabling flag).
      The NULL pointer is dereferenced when both
      mwifiex_cancel_all_pending_cmd() and mwifiex_exec_next_cmd()
      try to access cmd pending queue simultaneously.

      rtl8187: fix compile warning · aabcaa8b
      Andrea Merello authored
      ANAPARAM3 register, defined in the rtl818x common register
      struct, is accessed as 16bit by rtl8187se and as 8bit by rtl8187b.
      Since I have no documentation about this, I can only stick to
      the reference code and to what is known to work.
      
      This issue has been addressed by a patch from Larry Finger
      that introduces an "union", in the register struct.
      In my last patch-set I applied it on the register struct, but
      I forget to update rtl8187 driver too.
      This patch does it.

      rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: enable MSI interrupts mode · 2a54eb5e
      Adam Lee authored
      Some HP notebooks using this rtl8188ee hardware module can't get
      AP scan results with pin-based interrupts mode, enabling MSI interrupts
      mode could fix it.
      
      As RealTek's testing results, RTL8188EE works well with both MSI mode
      and pin-based mode fallback.

      rtlwifi: add MSI interrupts mode support · 94010fa0
      Adam Lee authored
      Add MSI interrupts mode support, enable it when submodules' msi_support
      flag is true, also could fallback to pin-based interrupts mode if MSI
      interrupts mode fails.
      
      RealTek's policy(on modules which work well with MSI interrupts mode) is:
      
      > If the platform supports both MSI and pin-based, use MSI.
      > If the platform supports MSI only, use MSI.
      > If the platform supports pin-based only, use pin-based.
      
      Also as RealTek's testing results, RTL8188EE and RTL8723BE work well
      with both MSI mode and pin-based mode fallback.

      mwifiex: use timeout variant for wait_event_interruptible · 52250cbe
      Amitkumar Karwar authored
      It has been observed that system hangs during suspend, if host
      sleep activation fails due to a missing interrupt from firmware.
      Use timeout variant, so that the thread will be woken up when
      timer expires.

      mwifiex: cancel pending commands for signal · 3d026d09
      Amitkumar Karwar authored
      When a thread is interrupted by signal, all
      wait_event_interruptible calls after queueing commands return
      an error. Numbers of commands in pending queue are increased
      in this case. Sometimes all commands nodes in pool are filled.
      
      We will cancel pending commands when signal is received.

      mwifiex: scan command preparation failure handling · 1845bd3a
      Amitkumar Karwar authored
      When scan request is received, scan commands are prepared and
      queued into scan pending queue. There is a corner case when
      command nodes are full. So we stop queueing further scan
      commands and return an error. This patch makes sure that
      currently queued commands in scan pending queue are also freed
      in this case.
