Add an NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH flag that causes old bss cache
entries to be flushed on scan completion. This is useful for
collecting guaranteed fresh scan/survey result (e.g. on resume).
For normal scan, flushing only happens on successful completion
of a scan; i.e. it does not happen if the scan is aborted.
For scheduled scan, previous scan results are flushed everytime
when we get new scan results.
This feature is enabled by default. Drivers can disable it by
unsetting the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_FLUSH flag.

Add NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_LOW_PRIORITY flag support. It tells drivers
that this is a low priority scan request, so that they can take
necessary action.
Drivers need to advertise low priority scan capability during
registration.

Make uapi/asm-generic/kvm_para.h non-empty by addition of a comment to stop
the patch program from deleting it when it creates it.
Then delete empty arch-specific uapi/asm/kvm_para.h files and tell the Kbuild
files to use the generic instead.
Should this perhaps instead be a #warning or #error that the facility is
unsupported on this arch?

uapi/linux/irqnr.h was emitted by the UAPI disintegration script as an empty
file because the parent linux/irqnr.h had no UAPI stuff in it, despite being
marked with "header-y".
Unfortunately, the patch program deletes the empty file when applying a kernel
patch.
It's not clear why this file is part of the UAPI at all. Looking in:
/usr/include/linux/irqnr.h
there's nothing there but a header reinclusion guard and a comment.
So just stick a comment in there as a placeholder.
Without this, if the kernel is fabricated from, say, a tarball and a patch, you
can get this error when building x86_64 or usermode Linux (and probably
others):
include/linux/irqnr.h:4:30: fatal error: uapi/linux/irqnr.h: No such file or directory

It seems I accidentally switched the guard on linux/elf-fdpic.h from #ifdef
__KERNEL__ to #ifndef __KERNEL__ when attempting to expand the guarded region
to cover the elf_fdpic_params struct when doing the UAPI split - with the
result that the struct became unavailable to kernel code.
Move incorrectly guarded bits back to the kernelspace header.
Whilst we're at it, the __KERNEL__ guards can be deleted as they're no longer
necessary.

Pull UAPI disintegration for include/linux/{,byteorder/}*.h from David Howells:
"The patches contained herein do the following:
(1) Remove kernel-only stuff in linux/ppp-comp.h from the UAPI. I checked
this with Paul Mackerras before I created the patch and he suggested some
extra bits to unexport.
(2) Remove linux/blk_types.h entirely from the UAPI as none of it is userspace
applicable, and remove from the UAPI that part of linux/fs.h that was the
reason for linux/blk_types.h being exported in the first place. I
discussed this with Jens Axboe before creating the patch.
(3) The big patch of the series to disintegrate include/linux/*.h as a unit.
This could be split up, though there would be collisions in moving stuff
between the two Kbuild files when the parts are merged as that file is
sorted alphabetically rather than being grouped by subsystem.
Of this set of headers, 17 files have changed in the UAPI exported region
since the 4th and only 8 since the 9th so there isn't much change in this
area - as one might expect.
It should be pretty obvious and straightforward if it does come to fixing
up: stuff in __KERNEL__ guards stays where it is and stuff outside moves
to the same file in the include/uapi/linux/ directory.
If a new file appears then things get a bit more complicated as the
"headers +=" line has to move to include/uapi/linux/Kbuild. Only one new
file has appeared since the 9th and I judge this type of event relatively
unlikely.
(4) A patch to disintegrate include/linux/byteorder/*.h as a unit.

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This has three changes for asm-generic that did not really fit into
any other branch as normal asm-generic changes do. One is a fix for a
build warning, the other two are more interesting:
* A patch from Mark Brown to allow using the common clock
infrastructure on all architectures, so we can use the clock API in
architecture independent device drivers.
* The UAPI split patches from David Howells for the asm-generic
files. There are other architecture specific series that are going
through the arch maintainer tree and that depend on this one.
There may be a few small merge conflicts between Mark's patch and the
following arch header file split patches. In each case the solution
will be to keep the new "generic-y += clkdev.h" line, even if it ends
up being the only line in the Kbuild file."
