When the driver was split, a bunch of definitions
for the 3945 and 4965 devices stayed around, but
they're now useless so remove (some of) them.

Tomas Winkler cf6da94acb iwlwifi: fix default LQ table in 5.2 band
The default LQ is filled decreasingly using
iwl_get_prev_ieee_rate from a starting rate.
Since the starting rate is already the lowest one for
a specific band it should be actually filled evenly with
the starting rate: 1M and 6M for 5.2GHZ and 2.4GH respectively.
The bug is that for for A or G-only it decreases to
CCK rates which are not supported.
iwl_get_prev_ieee_rate function is just not band aware.
This affects broadcast station which lq table
is not updated by rs algorithm

G-only scenario is not treated by this patch

iwl_get_prev_ieee_rate is removed completely as it
is not used in other contexts

Johannes Berg 290f599cc6 iwlagn: let bluetooth traffic load impact rate scale
Depending on the amount of bluetooth traffic,
using the shared antenna (antenna B) will have
adverse impact on both bluetooth and wireless
traffic. Add controls to improve the situation
by making rate scaling depend on the BT load.

When there's high bluetooth traffic load, there's
little point in trying to aggregate as BT traffic
would disrupt the aggregated frames all the time,
so simply don't start sessions then.

When BT traffic returns to lower levels, the rate
scaling will come here again automatically when
wifi traffic is high enough, and then it will be
able to successfully enable aggregation.

Reinette Chatre fe6b23dd36 iwlwifi: implement new mac80211 station add/remove calls
mac80211 recently implemented two new callbacks that are used to request
station add/remove from the driver. The benefot from these new callbacks
are that they enable the driver to sleep while performing this work.

This is a big patch since a few things need to be coordinated in this move.
First we need to decouple station management from rate scaling, which
caused a lot of code to be moved and/or deleted. Next we needed to tie in
with mac80211's station management callback and let it direct our station
management as well as trigger the rate scaling initialization.

Daniel C Halperin 5027309b55 iwlwifi: remove 60 Mbps from sband bitrates table
ieee80211_supported_band is supposed to only contain legacy rates in the
bitrates table (HT rates go in the ieee80211_sta_ht_cap substruct).  Make
iwlwifi driver obey this restriction by removing the 60 Mbps rate. Also, clean
up a few pieces of other code that formerly relied on 60 Mbps being in
sband->bitrates.

Mohamed Abbas d6e933993f iwlagn: improve rate scale table search
iwlagn rate scaling will periodically search other rate scale
tables to switch to the best table regarding performance. In the past
the number of search tables were 3. Every time the rate scale algorithm
goes through these available tables in will stay in current table for
some time before start searching again. Recent driver support more
feature and antenna, so we have more tables to search. This patch make
sure we go through all available tables.

Wey-Yi Guy 584a0f0063 iwlwifi: adding MIMO3 support in rate scaling
Separated the MIMO tpt matrix into MIMO2 and MIMO3, adding MIMO3 support
in rate scaling algorithm. If the device support 3x3, then utilize all
three antenna (A/B/C) for tx to improve throughput.

Adding rs_switch_to_mimo3() function to allow switch to mimo3 modulation
mode from other modes(legacy/siso/mimo2). Adding rs_move_mimo3_to_other()
function to allow switch from mimo3 modulation mode to either siso or mimo2;
also support toggle between SGI and NGI.

Wey-Yi Guy 8fe723117a iwlwifi: HT performance improvement changes
During rate scaling, checking for 0 retry count before decrement
the count by 1, this can avoid the retry count to become 255 (0xff),
which will cause the rate to drop faster than what we expect during good
condition (receive 0 retry packet). also change the algorithm to make
the rate not drop faster than what we like.
