Net diff vs danctnix v7.0-danctnix1

48 files in drivers/staging/bes2600/, +1426 / -2003.

Danctnix-flavor adaptations applied

  • from_timer → timer_container_of
  • del_timer_sync → timer_delete_sync
  • bes2600_config / bes2600_set_rts_threshold sigs include radio_idx parameter
  • bes2600_switch_bt orchestration removed (Mobian-only entry point; not called in danctnix tree)
  • 4 danctnix-only files preserved (bes2600_btuart.c, h4_recv.h, txrx_opt.c, txrx_opt.h)

Patch series content (squashed for atomicity)

what
c5.1 scan-defer-on-firmware-reject
c5.1.1 scan-defer backoff tune
c5.2 recover wedged firmware via mmc_hw_reset on link break
c6.1 gate PM_INDICATION on pending request
c6.2 short-circuit wake handshake when chip is ACTIVE
c7 self-detect firmware-doesn't-honour-PSM, skip cycle
c5.2.1 multi-function SDIO mmc_hw_reset rescan
Patch A decrypt-storm fast-recover
Patch B connection-loss bus_reset
Patch F cw1200 mainline backports (3 fixes)
Patch C v3 drop sdio_rx_work relay, IRQ→bh-direct (+73% throughput)
Patch G SPDX + ST-Ericsson attribution restoration
Patch D ba_lock atomicization
Patch E ps_state_lock skip when pm_unsupported
Patch C2 ieee80211_rx_irqsafe → ieee80211_rx_ni
Patch H bh.c hygiene cleanup

Verification

  • Mobian DKMS Phase 7 N=3 stress @ 4 MB/s: +67% throughput vs Patch B baseline (1.36 → 2.28 MB/s sustained)
  • Race-fix verified under stress (no wsm_release_tx_buffer WARN storm)
  • No WARN/BUG/oops on any rep
  • pm_unsupported latch confirmed firing post-reboot
  • Danctnix-flavor build: deferred to PKGBUILD CI / Markus's first build cycle

Soft-upstream submission plan

  1. Markus reviews + builds locally
  2. PR / patch submission to dreemurrs-embedded/danctnix-packages proposing linux-pinetab2-danctnix-besser as a sidegrade (or replacement) for linux-pinetab2
  3. Follow danctnix maintainer feedback on per-patch-vs-cumulative-diff preference

Deliberately omitted — regenerate on first Arch build via cd kernel && makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO. Don't ship a stale .SRCINFO.
