Using monitor mode, Johannes Berg observed out that lots of corrupted
and otherwise invalid frames were being passed to the host.
When in monitor mode we were disabling the hardware filtering here, but
this is not how monitor mode should work.

The driver called ieee80211_rx in hardware interrupt context. This has
been against the intention of the ieee80211_rx function. It caused a bug
in the crypto routines used by WPA. This patch calls ieee80211_rx in a

Support for multicast adresses is implemented by supporting the
set_multicast_list() function of the network device. Address
filtering is supported by a group hash table in the device.
This is based on earlier work by Benoit Papillaut. Fixes multicast packet
reception and ipv6 connectivity:

Bit-field constants in zd_chip.h are now defined using a shift expression.
The value 0x08 is now (1 << 3). The fix is intended to improve readability.
Remove misleading comment in zd_mac.c: The function already returns -EPERM
in managed mode (IW_MODE_INFRA).
Remove unused code in zd_mac.c: The unused code intended for debugging
rx_status values is no longer useful.
Added dump_stack() to ZD_ASSERT macro: Output of the stack helps to debug
assertions. Keep in mind that the ZD_ASSERT() macro only results in code,
if DEBUG is defined.

zd1211rw's support for IW_FREQ_AUTO is broken: when specified, the driver
tries to change to a channel specified in an uninitialized integer. As
IW_FREQ_AUTO is hard to implement properly, the solution (at least for now)
is to drop support for it and start ignoring the flags like all other wireless
drivers do.
This has the added advantage that kismet also starts working with zd1211rw,
even though kismet requesting IW_FREQ_AUTO is also a bug (fixed in their svn)

This patch includes a big cleanup of the existing unused LED code,
and adds support for controlling the LED.
The link LED will blink if the device is not associated. The LED
switches between 2 seconds on and 1 second off. If the device is
associated the LED is switched on.
The link LED also indicates packet TX. I do a little bit more led
resetting than the vendor driver, but the device works now as
expected for single LED and double LED devices.

Add static to 2 internal functions. Thanks goes to Adrian Bunk, who found that.
Also made some modifications to the clear functions:
After a discussion on the mailing list, I implemented this code to
have on the one hand sufficient test in debug mode, but on the
other hand reduce the overhead for structure clearing to a
minimum.
A new macro ZD_MEMCLEAR is introduced, which produces code if
DEBUG is set. Locks are not set anymore for structure clearing,
but in debug mode, there is a verification, that the locks have
not been set.
Finally, removed a misleading comment regarding locking in the disconnect
path.

There are 60+ USB wifi adapters available on the market based on the ZyDAS
ZD1211 chip.
Unlike the predecessor (ZD1201), ZD1211 does not have a hardware MAC, so most
data operations are coordinated by the device driver. The ZD1211 chip sits
alongside an RF transceiver which is also controlled by the driver. Our driver
currently supports 2 RF types, we know of one other available in a few marketed
products which we will be supporting soon.
Our driver also supports the newer revision of ZD1211, called ZD1211B. The
initialization and RF operations are slightly different for the new revision,
but the main difference is 802.11e support. Our driver does not support the
QoS features yet, but we think we know how to use them.
This driver is based on ZyDAS's own GPL driver available from www.zydas.com.tw.
ZyDAS engineers have been responsive and supportive of our efforts, so thumbs
up to them. Additionally, the firmware is redistributable and they have
provided device specs.
This driver has been written primarily by Ulrich Kunitz and myself. Graham
Gower, Greg KH, Remco and Bryan Rittmeyer have also contributed. The
developers of ieee80211 and softmac have made our lives so much easier- thanks!
We maintain a small info-page: http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite
If there is enough time for review, we would like to aim for inclusion in
2.6.18. The driver works nicely as a STA, and can connect to both open and
encrypted networks (we are using software-based encryption for now). We will
work towards supporting more advanced features in the future (ad-hoc, master
mode, 802.11a, ...).
