The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).
Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.
Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

As noted by Stephan Rothwell, an allyesconfig build fails since rtl8192cu
was merged with failures such as:
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/built-in.o: In function `rtl92c_phy_sw_chnl':
(.opd+0xf30): multiple definition of `rtl92c_phy_sw_chnl'

drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/built-in.o:(.opd+0x288): first defined here
These are caused because the code shared between rtl8192ce and rtl8192cu
is included in both drivers. This has been fixed by creating a new modue that
contains the shared code.

In drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/pci.c::_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt() we call
dev_alloc_skb(), which may fail and return NULL, but we do not check the
returned value against NULL before dereferencing the returned pointer.
This may lead to a NULL pointer dereference which means we'll crash - not
good.
In a separate call to dev_alloc_skb(), the debug level is changed so that
the failure message will always be logged.

The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.
In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.
Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!
