Dave,

This is a batch of fixes intended for the 3.11 queue...

Regarding the mac80211 (and related) bits, Johannes says:

"I have a fix from Chris for an infinite loop along with fixes from
myself to prevent it entering the loop to start with (continue using
disabled channels, many thanks to Chris for his debug/test help) and a
workaround for broken APs that advertise a bad HT primary channel in
their beacons. Additionally, a fix for another attrbuf race in mac80211
and a fix to clean up properly while P2P GO interfaces go down."

Along with that...

Solomon Peachy corrects a range check in cw1200 that would lead to
a BUG_ON when starting AP mode.

Stanislaw Gruszka provides an iwl4965 patch to power-up the device
earlier (avoiding microcode errors), and another iwl4965 fix that
resets the firmware after turning rfkill off (resolving a bug in the
Red Hat Bugzilla).

Please let me know if there are problems!

John
