[ANN] WiMAX stack and drivers for Intel WiMAX Link 5050 v1.2.5

[Inaky Perez-Gonzalez]

Hi All


Intel would like to announce the 1.2.5 release of the Linux WiMAX common
stack and drivers for its WiMAX devices (eg: Intel(r) WiMAX/WiFi Link 5050).

You can find the code and additional information at http://linuxwimax.org.

This is a maintenance release; the changes from release 1.2 to 1.2.5 are:

* WiMAX network service:*

Miscellaneous fixes:

- Unable to connect using eap-tls authentication (workaround fix with
  host side tls)

- SW RF state is not restored across wimax service restarts.

- Repeat connect/disconnect sequence causes the device and wimax
  service to reset.

- Switching HW radio on/off crashes the wimax service.

- CINR/RSSI values are not reported correctly.

- NDnSAgentConfig_forDriver.xml sometimes get corrupted during wimax
  service shutdown.

- Disconnecting from auto-connect mode does not change mode to manual.

- wimaxcu crashes when launched without wimax service 

- Not all information or some information is incorrectly reported on
  querying device info.

- Device state cotinues to be reported as connected after losing
  connection for extended period.


* WiMAX kernel stack and drivers:

Miscellaneous fixes

- fix memory corruption caused by race condition on freed skb

- use skb_end_pointer() instead of skb->end so we work properly on 64 bits
