The size of empty structs differs in C (0 byte) and C++ (1 byte), which
leads to different offsets in compound structures. This fixes the driver
on 32Bit platforms.
Issue #1439.
The wireless stack calls timer_before(foo, timer.expires) and up to now
it was always 0. Let's be save and set this field when scheduling the
timer, although it worked fine so far.
Issue #1439.
We will always see this error message when the driver is started. It
is expected and not an actual error. When the driver is running it will
not allocate larger chunks than the Slab provides. Therefore, we can
safely ignore this message.
Issue #1439.
Among others, this function is used in the for_each_set_big() macro,
which is used when configuring the data rate tables. Therefore, this
fixes observed performance issues.
Fixes#1439.
The context of timer are now inserted correctly and the actual timer
triggering the exection of each context is always programmed if the
head of the timer list changes.
Fixes#1326.
The jiffies are only updated on each round of scheduling the runnable
tasks. We have to schedule the current task that executes the sleep
call to update the jiffies count and thereby preventing the task from
entering an endless loop when using a statement like
'while (!time_after(jiffies, now + timeout)) { msleep(1); }'.

Instead of probing all device on the PCI bus just look for devices
matching PCI_CLASS_NETWORK_OTHER. This fixes issues with other devices
on the PCI bus, e.g. the GPU, when access their extended config space.
