Subject: [PATCH 3.10 090/104] iwlwifi: pcie: enable oscillator for L1 exit

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@...el.com>

commit 2d93aee152b1758a94a18fe15d72153ba73b5679 upstream.

Enabling the oscillator consumes slightly more power (100uA)
but allows to make sure that we exit from L1 on time.

Not doing so might lead to a PCIe specification violation
since we might wake up from L1 at the wrong time.
This issue has been identified on 3160 and 7260 only.
On older NICs L1 off is not enabled, on newer NICs (7265),
the issue is fixed.

When the bug occurs the user sees that the NIC has
disappeared from the PCI bridge, any access to the device
returns 0xff.

This fixes:

and has been extensively discussed here:
