Recent changes in udev are causing problems for drivers that load firmware
from the probe routine. As b43 has such a structure, it must be changed.
As this driver loads more than 1 firmware file, changing to the asynchronous routine
request_firmware_nowait() would be complicated. In this implementation, the probe
routine starts a queue that calls the firmware loading routines.

When using the bcm5354 (Soc with integrated LP-PHY Wifi) with a recent
firmware >= 478.104 it runs out of memory after a very short time in
OpenWrt after doing an active scan or any thing else where packages are
send. This was cased by a gpio misconfiguration, the firmware triggered
the GPIO pins used for buttons on some devices and that caused an other
driver (OpenWrt diag) listening for these buttons irqs to send many
messages to the user space.
This patch fixes the bug for my devices (Asus WL-520GU) and makes it
work with firmware 666.2. Now the firmware just uses LED GPIO pin
number 1 and not the button pins any more.
This is the GPIO Pin layout used on my device, see [0].
GPIO pin layout:
pin# name type
0 power led
1 wlan led
2 reset button
3 ses buttom
This is the nvram configuration output of "nvram show |grep gpio"
related nvram configuration:
wl0gpio2=11
wl0gpio3=11
wl0gpio0=11
wl0gpio1=0x02
reset_gpio=2

An Oops has once been observed, when the SDIO card had been ejected during
IO. The PC value shows, that the dev pointer in b43_op_stop() was NULL.
(I moved the NULL check before the lock, based upon a suggestion from

I merely installed coccinelle, read the documentation and took credit.

Following Rafal request, we verified that on "modern" CPUs using one
or more workers is equivalent. Here is patch V3 that addresses the
packet loss bug in the dma engine using only one worker.
-------
This patch addresses a bug in the dma worker code that keeps draining
packets even when the hardware queues are full. In such cases packets
can not be passed down to the device and are erroneusly dropped by the
code.
This problem was already discussed here
http://www.mail-archive.com/b43-dev@lists.infradead.org/msg01413.html
and acknowledged by Michael.
Number of hardware queues is now defined in b43.h (B43_QOS_QUEUE_NUM).
