The nwifi header is padded to 4 bytes. This wasn't
a problem until one tried to (at least) rx 4addr
frames.
This finally allows managed iface to be used in a
bridge.

Pass frames with invalid peer status to upper layer.
Next mac80211 will validate frames and drop if required.
This is required to detect spurious frames and pass
this info to user mode (detect CLASS2 CLASS3 frames from
nonauthenticated/nonassociated stations).

This throw a lot of pointless warnings in case of DFS (radar
detection) and PHYERR events from firmware, when firmware may
actually insert more data, than we assume.
Besides of being noisy this debug does not protect or check
anything usefull currently. It was introduced long time ago
while debugging aggregations. So just removing it.

Configure interface combination for AP running on channels
where radar detection is required. It allows only one type
of interface - AP on DFS channel and limits number of AP
interfaces to 8. Setup WMI channel flags accordingly to mac
channel configuration. CAC based on additional monitor vdev
is started if required for current channel.
kvalo: dropped ATH10K_DFS_CERTIFIED config option as this
the DFS still depends on few mac80211 and cfg80211 patches
which are on mac80211-next.git right now. The config option
will be added later once all dependencies are available.

With commit 0cfcefef1 ("mac80211: support reporting A-MSDU subframes
individually") there's no need to have the hack to clear the retry bit in
ath10k_htt_rx_amsdu(), mac80211 can handle this properly now.

This starves FW RX ring buffer in case of
excessive RX. This prevents from CPU being
overwhelmed by RX indications/completions by
naturally forbiddin FW to submit more RX.
This fixes RX starvation on slow machines when
under heavy RX traffic.

NWifi decap mode always reports 802.11 Data
Frames, even when QoS Data Frames are actually
received.
This made mac80211 not report frame priority
properly (since there was no QoS Control field).

HW reports each A-MSDU subframe as a separate
sk_buff. It is impossible to configure it to
behave differently.
Until now ath10k was reconstructing A-MSDUs from
subframes which involved a lot of memory
operations. This proved to be a significant
contributor to degraded RX performance.

Until now the all MSDU transfer related structures
were freed when all resources were unreferenced.
Now HTC transfer is freed independently and HTT
transfer is so too.
This yields a way more simpler ath10k_skb_cb and
should possibly enable parallel pipe processing
(which is now serialized in
ath10k_pci_process_ce routine).

Here's a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac QCA98xx devices.
A major difference from ath9k is that there's now a firmware and
that's why we had to implement a new driver.
The wiki page for the driver is:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath10k
The driver has had many authors, they are listed here alphabetically:
