The HT handling has the following deficiencies, which I've
(partially) fixed:
* it always uses the AP info even if there is no AP,
hence has no chance of working as an AP
* it pretends to be HW config, but really is per-BSS
* channel sanity checking is left to the drivers
* it generally lets the driver control too much
HT enabling is still wrong with this patch if you have more than
one virtual STA mode interface, but that never happens currently.
Once WDS, IBSS or AP/VLAN gets HT capabilities, it will also be
wrong, see the comment in ieee80211_enable_ht().
Additionally, this fixes a number of bugs:
* mac80211: ieee80211_set_disassoc doesn't notify the driver any
more since the refactoring
* iwl-agn-rs: always uses the HT capabilities from the wrong stuff
mac80211 gives it rather than the actual peer STA
* ath9k: a number of bugs resulting from the broken HT API
I'm not entirely happy with putting the HT capabilities into
struct ieee80211_sta as restricted to our own HT TX capabilities,
but I see no cleaner solution for now.

This patch cleans up a number of things:
* the unusable definition of the HT capabilities/HT information
information elements
* variable names that are hard to understand
* mac80211: move ieee80211_handle_ht to ht.c and remove the unused
enable_ht parameter
* mac80211: fix bug with MCS rate 32 in ieee80211_handle_ht
* mac80211: fix bug with casting the result of ieee80211_bss_get_ie
to an information element _contents_ rather than the
whole element, add size checking (another out-of-bounds
access bug fixed!)
* mac80211: remove some unused return values in favour of BUG_ON
checking
* a few minor other things

This patch makes usage of the results from disconnected antenna alg to
know how many antennas are connected.
It also synchronizes between the chain noise alg and the W/A that
disables power management during association. All the antennas must be
enables during the chain noise algorithm. Hence, power management is
restored only after the completion of the algorithm.
In the future, we will need to update the AP that we don't support MIMO
if there is only one antenna connected. We also need to update the rate
scaling algorithm.

unless RX is received but PS may close the radio and no RX will be received

This patch fixes the iwlwifi rfkill. It removes the input device from iwl3945,
adds support for RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED and calls rfkill_force_state() to
update the state rather than accessing it directly.
The calls to iwl|iwl3945_rfkill_set_hw_state() had to be moved because
rfkill_force_state() cannot be called from an atomic context.
Tested on iwl3945 and seems to work fine.

The iwlwifi drivers go to great lengths to avoid passing packets to
mac80211 they think shouldn't go there, while mac80211 can (of course!)
handle them very well.
Especially in the case of duplicate packets this is interesting
because it's such a performance hog (especially for IBSS networks)
while mac80211 does that work on the side without much effort.
This patch removes all that and leaves only what is absolutely
necessary for the hardware.
