Pull irq core changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest changes are the IRQ-work and printk changes from Frederic
Weisbecker, which prepare the code for 'full dynticks' (the ability to
stop or slow down the periodic tick arbitrarily, not just in idle time
as today):
- Don't stop tick with irq works pending. This fix is generally
useful and concerns archs that can't raise self IPIs.
- Flush irq works before CPU offlining.
- Introduce "lazy" irq works that can wait for the next tick to be
executed, unless it's stopped.
- Implement klogd wake up using irq work. This removes the ad-hoc
printk_tick()/printk_needs_cpu() hooks and make it working even in
dynticks mode.
- Cleanups and fixes."

Connection tracking helpers have to drop packets under exceptional
situations. Currently, the user gets the following logging message
in case that happens:
nf_ct_%s: dropping packet ...
However, depending on the helper, there are different reasons why a
packet can be dropped.
This patch modifies the existing code to provide more specific
error message in the scope of each helper to help users to debug
the reason why the packet has been dropped, ie:
nf_ct_%s: dropping packet: reason ...

====================
This probably is the last big pull request for wireless bits
for 3.9. Of course, I'm sure there will be a few stragglers here
and there...surely a few bug fixes as well... :-) (In fact, I see
that Johannes has already queued-up a few more for me while I was
preparing this...)
Included are a number of pulls...
For mac80211-next, Johannes says:
"The biggest change I have is undoubtedly Marco's mesh powersave
implementation. Beyond that, I have a patch from Emmanuel to modify the
DTIM period API in mac80211, scan improvements and a removal of some
previous workaround code from Stanislaw, dynamic short slot time from
Thomas and 64-bit station byte counters from Vladimir. I also made a
number of changes myself, some related to WoWLAN, some auth/deauth
improvements and most of them BSS list cleanups."
"This time, I have relatively large number of fixes in various areas of
the code (a memory leak in regulatory, an RX race in mac80211, the new
radar checking caused a P2P device problem, some mesh issues with
stations, an older bug in tracing and for kernel-doc) as well as a
number of small new features. The biggest (in the diffstat) is my work
on hidden SSID tracking."
"Please pull to get
* radar detection work from Simon
* mesh improvements from Thomas
* a connection monitoring/powersave fix from Wojciech
* TDLS-related station management work from Jouni
* VLAN crypto fixes from Michael Braun
* CCK support in minstrel_ht from Felix
* an SMPS (not SMSP, oops) related improvement in mac80211 (Emmanuel)
* some WoWLAN work from Amitkumar Karwar: pattern match offset and a
documentation fix
* some WoWLAN work from myself (TCP connection wakeup feature API)
* and a lot of VHT (and some HT) work (also from myself)
And a number of more random cleanups/fixes. I merged mac80211/master to
avoid a merge problem there."
And regarding iwlwifi-next, Johannes says:
"We continue work on our new driver, but I also have a WoWLAN and AP mode
improvement for the previous driver and a change to use threaded
interrupts to prepare us for working with non-PCIe devices."
Regarding wl12xx, Luca says:
"A few more patches intended for 3.9. Mostly some clean-ups I've been
doing to make it easier to support device-tree. Also including one bug
fix for wl12xx where the rates we advertise were wrong and an update in
the wlconf structure to support newer firmwares."
For the nfc-next bits, Samuel says:
"This is the second NFC pull request for 3.9.
We have:
- A few pn533 fixes on top of Waldemar refactorization of the driver, one of
them fixes target mode.
- A new driver for Inside Secure microread chipset. It supports two
physical layers: i2c and MEI. The MEI one depends on a patchset that's
been sent to Greg Kroah-Hartman for inclusion into the 3.9 kernel [1]. The
dependency is a KConfig one which means this code is not buildable as long
as the MEI API is not usptream."
"This 3rd NFC pull request for 3.9 contains a fix for the microread MEI
physical layer support, as the MEI bus API changed.
From the MEI code, we now pass the MEI id back to the driver probe routine,
and we also pass a name and a MEI id table through the mei_bus_driver
structure. A few renames as well like e.g. mei_bus_driver to mei_driver or
mei_bus_client to mei_device in order to be closer to the driver model
practices."
For the ath6kl bits, Kalle says:
"There's not anything special here, most of the patches are just code
cleanup. The only functional changes are using the beacon interval from user
space and fixing a crash which happens when inserting and removing the
module in a loop."
Also, I pulled the wireless tree in order to resolve some pending
merge issues. On top of that, there is a bunch of work on brcmfmac
that leads up to P2P support. Also, mwifiex, rtlwifi, and a variety
of other drivers see some basic cleanups and minor enhancements.
Please let me know if there are problems!

Adding the flag to mac80211 already without testing was
clearly a mistake, one that we now pay for by having to
reserve bit 13 forever. The problem is cfg80211 doesn't
allow capability/rate changes for station entries that
were added unassociated, so the station entries cannot
be set up properly when marked associated.
Change the NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE value
to make it clear to userspace implementations that all
current kernels don't actually support it, even though
the previous bit is set, and of course also remove the
flag from mac80211 until we test and fix the issues.

For HT and VHT the current bandwidth can change,
add the function ieee80211_vif_change_bandwidth()
to take care of this. It returns a failure if the

channel context, the caller has to handle that.
When it happens, also inform the driver that the
bandwidth changed for this virtual interface (no
drivers would actually care today though.)
Changing to/from HT/VHT isn't allowed though.

Handle the operating mode notification action frame.
When the supported streams or the bandwidth change
let the driver and rate control algorithm know.

With VHT, a station can change the number of spatial
streams it can receive on the fly, not unlike spatial
multiplexing in HT. Prepare for that by tracking the
maximum number of spatial streams it can receive when
the connection is established.

Define the action frame format, the VHT category
and its action types and the field format and EID
for operating mode notifications. The frame may
be used outside of VHT context as well, so don't
include "VHT" in the names.

For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.
To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.
If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.
Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.
While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it
really happens...)

Add command to trigger radar detection in the driver/FW.
Once radar detection is started it should continuously
monitor for radars as long as the channel active.
If radar is detected usermode notified with 'radar
detected' event.
Scanning and remain on channel functionality must be disabled
while doing radar detection/scanning, and vice versa.

Add new NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT, which starts the Channel
Availability Check (CAC). This command will also notify the
usermode about events (CAC finished, CAC aborted, radar
detected, NOP finished).
Once radar detection has started it should continuously
monitor for radars as long as the channel is active.
This patch enables DFS for AP mode in nl80211/cfg80211.

Patch 16559ae "kgdb: remove #include <linux/serial_8250.h> from kgdb.h"
removed an implicit inclusion of linux/platform_device.h
In a number of places. This adds back explicit inclusions in a few
more places I found.
