Here are some minor updates for EEPROM, mostly documentation and some small
fixes which have no effect at the moment.
- fixed_bias is not available for B mode.
- AR5K_EEPROM_[RT]X_CHAIN_DIS is 3 bit. this is MIMO and will not be used in
ath5k, but just to be correct.
- AR5K_EEPROM_JAP_MID_EN added, and shift of following flags adapted.
- added some documentation for EEPROM values and some comments.

Commit 8bf3d79bc401ca417ccf9fc076d3295d1a71dbf5 enabled EEPROM
checksum checks to avoid bogus bug reports but failed to address
updating the code to consider devices with custom EEPROM sizes.
Devices with custom sized EEPROMs have the upper limit size stuffed
in the EEPROM. Use this as the upper limit instead of the static
default size. In case of a checksum error also provide back the
max size and whether or not this was the default size or a custom
one. If the EEPROM is busted we add a failsafe check to ensure
we don't loop forever or try to read bogus areas of hardware.
This closes bug 14874

Without this we have no gaurantee of the integrity of the
EEPROM and are likely to encounter a lot of bogus bug reports
due to actual issues on the EEPROM. With the EEPROM checksum
check in place we can easily rule those issues out.
If you run patch during a revert *you* have a card with a busted
EEPROM and only older kernel will support that concoction. This
patch is a trade off between not accepitng bogus EEPROMs and
avoiding bogus bug reports allowing developers to focus instead
on real concrete issues.
If stable keeps bogus bug reports because of a possibly busted EEPROM
feel free to apply this there too.
Tested on an AR5414

The `val' variable in ath5k_eeprom_read_turbo_modes() is used
uninitialized. gcc 4.4.1 with -fno-inline-functions-called-once reports
it:
eeprom.c: In function 'ath5k_eeprom_read_turbo_modes':
eeprom.c:441: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function
Comparing the code to the Atheros HAL, it's clear that the split between
ath5k_eeprom_read_modes() and ath5k_eeprom_read_turbo_modes() was
incorrect.
The Atheros HAL reads both turbo and non-turbo data from EEPROM in one
function. Some turbo mode parameters are derived from the same EEPROM
values as non-turbo parameters, just from different bits.
Merge ath5k_eeprom_read_turbo_modes() into ath5k_eeprom_read_modes() to
fix the warning. The actual values and offsets have been cross-checked
against Atheros HAL.

* Read PCI-E infos offset from EEPROM and if it points to
serdes section (0x40), enable serdes programming (further tweaking
of serdes values during attach). This follows Legacy and Sam's
HAL sources.

* Add code to support the various antenna scenarios supported by hw
* For now hardcode the default scenario (single or dual omnis with
tx/rx diversity working and tx antenna handled by session -hw keeps
track on which antenna it got ack from each ap/station and maps each
ap/station to one of the antennas-).

commit 8e218fb24f reverted the previous
patch (commit 925be8a307).
The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5:
The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the
beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an
obsolescent feature.
