A long time ago, a user reported several crashes due to
data corruptions which are likely the result of a
not-100%-supported, or faulty? PCI bridge.
( http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/53004/ )
This patch fixes entry #1.
"1. p54p_check_rx_ring - skb_over_panic: Under a ping flood
or just left running for a bit would panic with a skb_over_panic."
As described in the mail: The invalid frame length causes
skb_put to bailout and trigger a crash.
Note:
Simply dropping the frame is problematic, because if its content
contains a tx feedback we would lose some portion of the device
memory space.... And the driver/mac80211 should handle all other
invalid data.

Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended protection
mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.
Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.

Previous init path was based on old specs from old driver. Update it
as much as possible leaving some TODOs for not implemented functions.

Move table init to tables_nphy.c, detect newer PHY which use different init.
We don't init newer PHYs yet but this at least shows what more is needed.

Previously ath9k left the initialization of slot timing and ACK/CTS
timeout to the mode specific initvals. This does not handle short vs
long slot in 2.4 GHz and uses a rather strange value for the 2.4 GHz
ACK timeout (64 usec).
This patch uses the proper ath9k_hw functions for setting slot time and
timeouts and also implements the switch between short and long slot
time in 2.4 GHz

The device has to be marked as invalid before
registering the ISR. HW initialization takes place
after the ISR has been registered, and the invalid
flag is eventually cleared in the ->stop() callback.

In f41f3f373d the B43 driver was ported
to use the cfg80211 API for rfkill and consequently the config option
was dropped (RFKILL is now unconditionally enabled).
However in the Kernel Info the feature is still checked and reported
missing. This patch just removes the conditional and the relevant code
blocks while still reporting that feature unconditionally would be
another option (it's always there).

These are unused and as with a previous patch 5ef5da for wl1251
this removes some other unused flags. the IRQ_MASK specifically
conflicts with include/pcmcia/cs.h when using compat-wireless.

Ah, you are right. I took '%' for '&'. John, would you revert it? Sorry
for the false alarm.
