This introduces a big queue handling overhaul, this also
renames "ring" to "queues".
Move queue handling into rt2x00queue.c and the matching header,
use Kerneldoc to improve rt2x00 library documentation.
Access to the queues is now protected under a spinlock, this
to prevent race conditions which could corrupt the indexing
system of the queue.
Each queue entry allocates x bytes for driver/device specific data,
this cleans up the queue structure significantly and improves
code readability.
rt2500usb no longer needs 2 entries in the beacon queue to correctly
send out the guardian byte. This is now handled in the entry specific
structure.
rt61 and rt73 now use the correct descriptor size for beacon frames,
since this data is written into the registers not the entire TXD
descriptor was used but instead of a subset of it named TXINFO.
Finally this also fixes numerous other bugs related to incorrect
beacon handling or beacon related code.

rt2500usb and rt73usb data and desc pointer initialization
was incorrect because it was using uninitialized variables
to determine the length.
In addition rt2500usb used skb_pull and removed the ieee80211
from each received frame instead of using skb_trim to remove
the device descriptor from the frame.
Finally this also fixes the descriptor override when 4 byte
aligning occured. We still need a completely valid descriptor
when using the TX/RX dumping capabilities in debugfs.

rt2500usb and rt73usb store the descriptor in different
places. This means we should move the initialization of
the 2 pointers to the driver callback function fill_rxdone().

Apparently it was possible that ieee80211_stop_queue() was not full while
NETDEV_TX_BUSY was being reported back. I think that is what causing the WARN_ON().
This moves all calls to ieee80211_stop_queue() in rt2x00mac.c where it is easier
to determine if the queue should be halted.

This adds TX/RX frame dumping capabilities through debugfs.
The intention is that with this approach debugging of rt2x00 is
simplified since _all_ frames going in and out of the device
are send to debugfs as well along with additional information
like the hardware descriptor.
Based on the patch by Mattias Nissler.
Mattias also has some tools that will make the dumped frames
available to wireshark: http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~nissler/rt2x00/

Use the skb->cb field to add a frame description that can be used
to transfer information passed each rt2x00 layer. This reduces the
required arguments for rt2x00lib_write_tx_desc().

There is a buffer, csr_cache which is used to hold copies of data being passed
to the USB stack which can get corrupted if multiple threads attempt to access
CSR registers simultaneously. There is also the possibility if multiple
threads try to access BBP or RF registers for the multiple USB operations
needed to get interleaved leading to incorrect results. This patch introduces
a mutex to prevent such simultaneous access. The interleaved access problem
may also affect the PCI devices but if so that will be handled in a follow-up
patch.

As Johannes Berg indicated, the NET_IP_ALIGN doesn't
need to be used for ieee80211 frames. This means we
can simplify the alignment calculation to just
use the result of the header size modulus 4 as frame
alignment.
Furthermore we shouldn't use NET_IP_ALIGN in rt2x00usb
because it could be 0 on some architectures and we absolutely
need to have 2 bytes reserved for possible aligning.

The usb max packet size won't change during the
device's presence. We should store it in a
variable inside rt2x00dev and use that.
This should also fix a division error when the
device is being hot-unplugged while a frame is
being send out.

The TX datalen must always be converted to a value rt73 and rt2500usb
understand. Both require to use a different size then skb->len.
First off this is required because the descriptor must be added,
but the second is because the value must be a multiple of either 2 or 4,
and it should not be a multiple of the USB packetmax

By increasing the timeout for rt2x00usb_vendor_request,
we should limit the number of loops required to send
a signal to the device succefully.
500ms timeout is specified by the Ralink legacy drivers
for rt2500usb. For rt73usb 1000ms is specified, but that
includes the timeout for the firmware which is already
specified in a different define.

Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor
interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and
they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc.
This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list()
callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes
filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*).
For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much
as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags.
Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g.
FIF_ALLMULTI.
Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that
have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast
frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or
when the mc_count value is positive.
At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about
monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to
implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new
change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop()
ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any
add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after
any remove_interface().
The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid
to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING
is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed
and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced.
This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that
supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID
to all-ones.
