The get survey op expects the low level driver to report
the noise level for a a given channel.
The noise calculated in wlcore is (rssi-snr/2), but since
the snr reported by the FW is a derivative from the rssi
this calculation is useless, and should not be reported
to the user space.
Reporting incorrect noise, results in the wpa_supplicant
miscalculating the roaming candidate priority, thus causing
a situation where an AP with a lower rssi level would be
chosen over a better AP.

Currently when mac80211 asks to change the interface
type, we will accept it for both the BSS and PAN
contexts. This is not terribly complicated today,
but with the addition of the P2P Device abstraction
the PAN context handling will get more complex, so
restrict mac_change_interface to the BSS context.
Also fix a small locking issue and use is_active
instead of the vif pointer to check if the other
context is activated, guarding exclusive interface
types on the BSS context (IBSS) against the PAN
context being used for something else.

brcmsmac implements enforcement of regulatory constraints internally,
using a Broadcom-specific world roaming domain named X2. Besides being
duplication of functionality this can also conflict with mac80211's
regulatory implementation, as mac80211 is unaware of the X2 domain and
thus might apply a more restrictive domain.
This patch is the first step in making brcmsmac cooperate with
mac80211's regulatory support. X2 is registered as a custom domain with
mac80211, so that at least both implementations will be enforcing the
same set of constraints. The internal enforcement of rules is kept for
now; this will be converted over to relying on mac80211 regulatory
enforcement in later patches.

Commit "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters"

because of a misnamed variable.
The beacon RSSI is only valid in station mode, and the main reason to check

stays enabled if the RSSI is low, even when the OFDM noise immunity entry
is supposed to disable it.
The above commit removed the mode checks and changed the code so that
OFDM weak signal detection would only be changed if the rssi is high, which
is wrong for everything but client mode.
