This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of
it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of
bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one.

This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted,
frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with
the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the
monitor mode support should be used instead.
Removing it removes a lot of corner cases.

In v3.15 the driver stopped to accept network packets after successful
authentification, which could be worked around by passing the
nohwcrypt=1 module parameter. This was not reproducible by
everyone, and showed random behaviour in some tests.
It was caused by an uninitialized variable introduced
in 4ed1a8d4a2 ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_accept") and
used in 341b29b9cd ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_skb_postprocess").

Ether_addr_equal_64bits is more efficient than ether_addr_equal, and can be
used when each argument is an array within a structure that contains at
least two bytes of data beyond the array.
The structures involved are:
ieee80211_hdr defined in include/linux/ieee80211.h
ath_common defined in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath.h

ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during
TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX
status handling the header is not moved back into its original position.
This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc
again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an
skb_under_panic oops.
Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position
before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00
or ath5k do.

The ath9k commit 2ef167557c
(ath9k: fix signal strength reporting issues) fixed an issue where the
reported per-frame signal strength reported to mac80211 was being
overwritten with an internal average. The same issue is also present
in ath9k_htc.
In addition to preventing the driver from overwriting the value, this
commit also ensures that the internal average (which is used for ANI)
only tracks beacons of the AP that we're connected to.

When doing a channel set or a reset operation the pending
frames queued up for transmission have to be flushed and
sent to mac80211. Fixing this has to be done in two separate
steps:
* Flush queued frames and kill the URB TX completion handler.
* Complete all the frames that in the TX pending queue.
This patch adds proper support for draining and all the callsites
namely, channel change/reset/idle/stop are fixed. A separate queue
is used for handling failed frames.
