These files are incompatible with some changes
I'm making, and don't really belong into sysfs
anyway as they can only be used for debugging.
Since writing them will probably crash the
firmware, keep only the reading part and move
them into debugfs.

Since rfkill integration, mac80211 can no
longer add an interface while the hardware
is not ready, so STATUS_MODE_PENDING can
never be set.
Also, remove another superfluous channel
sanity check and return the commit_rxon
return value in case it failed.

This code will never trigger, because when
we call this during interface start, neither
priv->vif nor priv->iw_mode conditions will
be true, and when it happens during reset
then priv->vif is also NULL. Also, in both
cases the same code will be executed as part
of iwl_bss_info_changed(), which contains a
copy of this code.

Not all queues are mapped for frame transmission,
so saying "AC" is misleading. They are all mapped
to FIFOs, obviously, though, so use that term and
also say AC/CMD instead of just AC for the queue

With some of the new code in mac80211, public action
frames can be exchanged as non-injected frames even
while not associated.
Aside from that, dropping frames here is pointless
since we do deal with arbitrary frames that were
injected already, so let mac80211 make the decision
about which frames to allow or not.

All the ICT ISR code is iwlagn specific, and doesn't
need to be in iwlcore. So create a new iwl-agn.h

Drivers can now advertise to cfg80211 that they have
multiple MAC addresses reserved for a device, but we
don't currently make use of that in mac80211.
Change that and assign different addresses to new
virtual interfaces (if addresses are available) in
order to make it easier for users to use multiple
virtual interfaces; they no longer need to always
assign a new MAC address manually.

The current software scan implemenation in mac80211 returns to the operating
channel after each scanned channel. However, in some situations (e.g. no
traffic) it would be nicer to scan a few channels in a row to speed up
the scan itself.
Hence, after scanning a channel, check if we have queued up any tx frames and
return to the operating channel in that case.
Unfortunately we don't know if the AP has buffered any frames for us. Hence,
scan only as many channels in a row as the pm_qos latency and the negotiated
listen interval allows us to.

The AR_IMR_S2 register sometimes cannot be read correctly. Instead of a
valid value, 0xdeadbeef is returned. The driver has been observed
writing that value back to AR_IMR_S2 after changing a few bits.

when an IBSS merge happened, the supported rates for the newly added station
were left empty, causing the rate control module to be initialized with only
the basic rates.
also the section of the ibss code which deals with updating supported rates for
an already existing station fails to inform the rate control module about the
new rates. as i don't know how to fix this (minstrel does not have an update
function), i have just added a comment for now.
