      carl9170: reduce channel change delay · 3b386510
      Christian Lamparter authored
      By removing two "safety" msleeps (and an echo nop), the
      channel change delay is effectively halved. Previously,
      the delay could be as long as 260 ms and the device
      could not go off-channel without risking to miss the
      next DTIM beacon [interval ~307 ms].

      ath5k: fix cycle counter inconsistent locking · bb007554
      Bob Copeland authored
      ath5k_reset is called from process context and takes the cc_lock
      with plain spin_lock(), but cc_lock can also be taken from tasklets
      in softirq context.  Thus we need to at least use spin_lock_bh.
      
      This fixes the following lockdep warning:

      ath9k: fix spur mitigation no-spur case for AR9002 · 44cefead
      Brian Prodoehl authored
      For the AR9002, the spur frequency read from the EEPROM is mangled
      before being compared against AR_NO_SPUR.  This results in the driver
      trying to set up the spur mitigation for bogus spurs, rather than
      cleanly breaking out.

      iwlagn: fix scan tx antenna setting on 5Ghz band · cd017f25
      Stanislaw Gruszka authored
      Looks that we do not set correctly antennas when scanning
      on 5Ghz band and when bluetooth is enabled, because
      priv->cfg->scan_tx_antennas[band] is only defined for
      IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ.
      
      To fix we check band before limiting antennas to first one.
      This allow to remove hard coded cfg->scan_tx_antennas[band].
