Subject: [GIT]: Networking


1) Andrew Morton reported a build failure because the TIPC protocol
   layer defines a "struct node" but include/linux/node.h does the
   same.  I added a "tipc_" prefix to TIPC's datastructure names to
   fix this.

2) bnx2x driver accesses 64 bytes past the end of a DMA mapping, oops.
   Fix from Eilon Greenstein.

3) Two ath9k fixes form Jouni Malinen, one for TX control flag settings	
   when we have no ACK for RTS/CTS and another fix for TX status reporting.

4) Several iwlwifi fixes:
   a) STATUS_EXIT_PENDING needs to be set during pci_remove or else the device
      doesn't get shutdown properly
   b) chip doesn't go into low power mode when the driver does a suspend or
      an exit, add missing apm stop call to fix that
   c) TX command memory allocation failures not handled properly, resulting
      in leak
   d) RX chain values miscalculated, this causes a firmware error and reset
   e) MIMO power save values were wrong, it was using the local values rather
      than the peer's
   f) spurious Full-RXON events cause reconnection to the AP making the
      connection nearly unusable, do not emit these during power save
      transitions
   g) hidden non-broadcasting APs on passive channels could not be seen
      because direct probes were not being sent even if traffic was
      detected on that channel
   h) driver erroneously indicates that chip can do proper TSF syncing,
      it really cannot do this properly so don't set the feature bit

5) Remove netxen chipset quirk, it causes DMA lockups instead of fixing
   the problem.  From Dhananjay Phadke.

6) pcnet-cs and axnet-cs, add some new PCI IDs, from Komuro.

7) In IXGBE, the default interrupt throttling setting was unintentionally
   removed in 2.6.25, so now "0" is the default which kills performance.
   Fix from Andy Gospodarek.

8) Pegasus driver is way too verbose during startup, from David Brownell.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
