+Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: avoid writing channel out of allocated array
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Our code was assigning number of channels to the index variable by
+default. If firmware reported channel we didn't predict this would
+result in using that initial index value and writing out of array. This
+never happened so far (we got a complete list of supported channels) but
+it means possible memory corruption so we should handle it anyway.
+
+This patch simply detects unexpected channel and ignores it.
+
+As we don't try to create new entry now, it's also safe to drop hw_value
+and center_freq assignment. For known channels we have these set anyway.
+
+I decided to fix this issue by assigning NULL or a target channel to the
+channel variable. This was one of possible ways, I prefefred this one as
+it also avoids using channel[index] over and over.
+
+Fixes: 58de92d2f95e ("brcmfmac: use static superset of channels for wiphy bands")

+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+During init we take care of regulatory stuff by disabling all
+unavailable channels (see brcmf_construct_chaninfo) so this predisabling
+them is not really required (and this patch won't change any behavior).
+It will on the other hand allow more detailed runtime control over
+channels which is the main reason for this change.

+Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: setup wiphy bands after registering it first
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+During bands setup we disable all channels that firmware doesn't support
+in the current regulatory setup. If we do this before wiphy_register
+it will result in copying set flags (including IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED)
+to the orig_flags which is supposed to be persistent. We don't want this
+as regulatory change may result in enabling some channels. We shouldn't
+mess with orig_flags then (by changing them or ignoring them) so it's
+better to just take care of their proper values.
+
+This patch cleanups code a bit (by taking orig_flags more seriously) and
+allows further improvements like disabling really unavailable channels.
+We will need that e.g. if some frequencies should be disabled for good
+due to hardware setup (design).
