On AR9003 chips, doing three IQ calibrations will possibly cause chip
in stuck state. In noisy environment, chip could receive
a packet during the middle of three calibrations and it causes
the conflict of HW access and the eventual failure. It also
causes IQ calibration outliers which results in poor Tx EVM.
The IQ Cal procedure is after resetting the chip, run IQ cal 3 times
per each cal cycle and find the two closest readings and average of two.
The advantage of running Tx IQ cal more than once is that we can compare
calibration results for the same gain setting over multiple iterations.
Most of the cases the IQ failures were observed after first pass.
For the AR9485 and later chips, Tx IQ Calibration is performed along
with AGC cal. But for pre-AR9485 chips, Tx IQ cal HW has to be separated
from the rest of calibration HW to avoid chip hang. After all
calibrations are done in HW, we can start SW post-processing.
By doing this way, we minimize the SW difference among all chips.
The order of calibration (run IQ cal before other calibration) is also
needed to avoid chip hang for chips before AR9485. This issue was
originally observed with AR9382.
During the issue kernel log was filled with following message
ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0xa640: 0x00000001 & 0x00000001 != 0x00000000

The EEPROM contains scale factors for the tx power, which define
the range of allowable difference between target power and training
power. If the difference is too big, PA predistortion cannot be used.
For 2.4 GHz there is only one scale factor, for 5 GHz there are
three, depending on the specific frequency range.

Right now it is done for only AR9485, will be done for ar9003 also
after proper testing.

The baseband watchdog will monitor blocks of the baseband
through timers and will issue an interrupt when things are
detected to be stalled. It is only available on the AR9003
family.

We add this now as OFDM spur mitigation required accessing
the EEPROM for the AR9003 devices.
