When in world roaming mode, allow 40 MHz to be used on channels 12 and 13 so that an AP that is, e.g., using HT40+ on channel 9 (in the UK) can be used.

On resume or firmware recovery, mac80211 sends a null data packet to see if the AP is still around and hasn't disconnected us. However, it always does this even if it wasn't even connected before, leading to a warning in the new channel context code. Fix this by checking that it's associated.

The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID. The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of connections. Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in environments with transfers using multiple TIDs. This regression was introduced in b11b160d ("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information").

bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the old pointer being dereferenced again later. This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages.

The code to allow EAPOL frames even when the station isn't yet marked associated needs to check that the incoming frame is long enough and due to paged RX it also can't assume skb->data contains the right data, it must use skb_copy_bits().

A number of places in the mesh code don't check that the frame data is present and in the skb header when trying to access. Add those checks and the necessary pskb_may_pull() calls. This prevents accessing data that doesn't actually exist. To do this, export ieee80211_get_mesh_hdrlen() to be able to use it in mac80211.

Due to pskb_may_pull() checking the skb length, all non-management frames are checked on input whether their 802.11 header is fully present.

Patch fixes warnings like below happened on resume: WARNING: at net/mac80211/driver-ops.h:12 check_sdata_in_driver+0x32/0x34() Problem is that in __ieee80211_susped() we remove sdata (i.e wlan0 interface) and then during resume we call usb_unbind_interface() -> ieee80211_unregister_hw() with sdata removed. Patch fixes problem by adding .reset_resume calback, hence we do not unbind usb device on resume. This callback can be the same as normal .resume callback, sice we do all needed initalization during interface start, which is performed on resume [ ieee80211_resume() -> ieee80211_reconfig() -> rt2x00mac_start() -> rt2x00lib_start ].

No driver initializes chan->max_antenna_gain to something sensible, and the only place where it is being used right now is inside ath9k. This leads to ath9k potentially using less tx power than it can use, which can decrease performance/range in some rare cases. Rather than going through every single driver, this patch initializes chan->orig_mag in wiphy_register(), ignoring whatever value the driver left in there. If a driver for some reason wishes to limit it independent from regulatory rulesets, it can do so internally.

Some changes to fix issues with HT40 APs in Korea and follow-up changes to allow using HT40 even if the local regulatory database disallows it caused issues with iwlwifi (and could cause issues with other devices); iwlwifi firmware would assert if you tried to connect to an AP that has an invalid configuration (e.g. using HT40- on channel 140.) Fix this, while avoiding the "Korean AP" issue by disabling HT40 and advertising HT20 to the AP when connecting.

The problem here is that we loop until "remained_buf_len" is less than zero, but since it is unsigned, it never is. "remained_buf_len" has to be large enough to hold the value from "mgmt_ie_buf_len". That variable is type u32, but it only holds small values so I have changed to both variables to int. Also I removed the bogus initialization from "mgmt_ie_buf_len" so that GCC can detect if it is used unitialized. I moved the declaration of "remained_buf_len" closer to where it is used so it's easier to read.
