Without this patch, firmware will not run properly on rtl8821ae, and it
causes bad user experience. For example, bad connection performance with
low rate, higher power consumption, and so on.
rtl8821ae uses two kinds of firmwares for normal and WoWlan cases, and
each firmware has firmware data buffer and size individually. Original
code always overwrite size of normal firmware rtlpriv->rtlhal.fwsize, and
this mismatch causes firmware checksum error, then firmware can't start.
In this situation, driver gives message "Firmware is not ready to run!".

When connecting to AP, mac80211 asks driver to enter and leave PS quickly,
but driver deinit doesn't wait for delayed work complete when entering PS,
then driver reinit procedure and delay work are running simultaneously.
This will cause unpredictable kernel oops or crash like

This patch ensures all delayed works done before entering PS to satisfy
our expectation, so use cancel_delayed_work_sync() instead. An exception
is delayed work ips_nic_off_wq because running task may be itself, so add
a parameter ips_wq to deinit function to handle this case.

When using EAPOL to do a PTK rekey, there is a possible race condition.
When msg 3/4 is received, the supplicant will send msg 4/4 and install
the new key immediately; however, the driver must make sure that msg 4/4
is sent before installing the new key. We use TX report to ensure it is
sent.

scheduling to ath9k. It prevents slow clients from hogging all the
airtime and unfairly slowing down faster clients.
Otherwise smaller changes and cleanup.

ath9k
* cleanup eeprom endian handling
* add airtime fairness scheduling
ath10k
* fix issues for new QCA9377 firmware version
* support dev_coredump() for firmware crash dump
* enable channel 169 on 5 GHz band

With commit e49656147359 {"rtlwifi: Use dev_kfree_skb_irq instead of
kfree_skb"), the method used to free an skb was changed because the
kfree_skb() was inside a spinlock. What was forgotten is that kfree_skb()
guards against a NULL value for the argument. Routine dev_kfree_skb_irq()
does not, and a test is needed to prevent kernel panics.

commit a269913c52ad ("rtlwifi: Rework rtl_lps_leave() and rtl_lps_enter()

due to the fact that leaving PS was delayed by the use of a work queue.
This problem is fixed by detecting if the enter or leave routines are
in interrupt mode. If so, the workqueue is used to place the request.
If in normal mode, the enter or leave routines are called directly.

In commit d86e64768859 ("rtlwifi: rtl818x: constify local structures"),
the configuration struct for most of the drivers was changed to be
constant. The problem is that five of the modified drivers need to be
able to update the firmware name based on the exact model of the card.
As the file names were stored in one of the members of that struct,
these drivers would fail with a kernel BUG splat when they tried to
update the firmware name.
Rather than reverting the previous commit, I used a suggestion by
Johannes Berg and made the firmware file name pointers be local to
the routines that update the software variables.
The configuration struct of rtl8192cu, which was not touched in the
previous patch, is now constantfied.

Commit 49f86ec21c01 ("rtlwifi: Change long delays to sleeps") was correct

To fix this bug, three of the changes from delay to sleep are reverted.
Unfortunately, one of the changes involves a delay of 50 msec. The calling
code will be modified so that this long delay can be avoided; however,
this change is being pushed now to fix the problem in kernel 4.6.0.
