Adding support for BCM8727 - a dual port SFP+ PHY. That includes verification of
the optic module vendor and part number - the list of approved modules resides
on the nvram and the module is verified by the FW. Since not all users would
like to use this verification feature, it can be disabled. The default behavior
is to issue a warning if the module is not approved, but still allow using it -
but it is also possible to disable the link if the module is not approved.

For AP mode we must tune ANI specially for 2 GHz and
for 5 GHz. We mask in only the flags we want to toggle
on ath9k_hw_ani_control() through the ah->ani_function
bitmask, this will take care of ignoring changes during
ANI reset which we were disabling before.

Pavel Roskin reported some issues with using AP mode without
nohwcrypt=1. Most likely this is similar to the problem fixed
some time ago in ath9k by 3f53dd64f1,
"ath9k: Fix hw crypto configuration for TKIP in AP mode."
That only affects TKIP but it's easiest to just disable that and
WEP too until we get a proper fix in.

This changes the power_level file to adhere to the "one value
per file" sysfs rule. The user will know which power level was
requested as it will be the number just written to this file. It
is thus not necessary to create a new sysfs file for this value.
In addition it fixes a problem where powertop's parsing expects
this value to be the first value in this file without any descriptions.

If spin_lock_irqsave is called twice in a row with the same second
argument, the interrupt state at the point of the second call overwrites
the value saved by the first call. Indeed, the second call does not
need to save the interrupt state, so it is changed to a simple
spin_lock.

Since 2.6.30 (commit 4995f8ef9d, 'vcs:
hook sysfs devices into object lifetime instead of "binding"' to be
exact) these devices are no longer created at open() and removed on
close(), but controlled by the lifetime of the buffers.

netxen: fix deadlock on dev close
The tx ring accounting fix in commit cb2107be43
("netxen: fix tx ring accounting") introduced intermittent
deadlock when inteface is going down.
This was possibly combined effect of speculative tx pause,
calling netif_tx_lock instead of queue lock and unclean
synchronization with napi which could end up unmasking
interrupt.

The variable virtio_blk references the function virtblk_probe() (which
is in .devinit section) and also references the function
virtblk_remove() ( which is in .devexit section). So, virtio_blk
simultaneously refers .devinit and .devexit section. To avoid this
messup, we mark virtio_blk as __refdata.
We were warned by the following warning:

The connector documentation states that the argument to the callback
function is always a pointer to a struct cn_msg, but rather than encode it
in the API itself, it uses a void pointer everywhere. This doesn't make
much sense to encode the pointer in documentation as it prevents proper C
type checking from occurring and can easily allow people to use the wrong
pointer type. So convert the argument type to an explicit struct cn_msg
pointer.
