Instead of unconditionally sending unassoc RXON,
before any assoc RXON, re-send only the AP STA
entry which is required after the BSSID has been
programmed into the device to set up internal
filters in the microcode properly.
This fixes some issues that we correlated with
sending a lot of RXON commands to the device.

For reasons that aren't entirely clear to me,
we sometimes get here during hardware reset
without the interface being set. Don't crash,
but keep a warning.

When the HT information is changed due to
BSS changes (like legacy stations joining)
we need to recalculate HT RXON parameters.

During the RXON rewrite, this code got lost.
When we've just associated, we need to enable
all calibrations and see if some were already
finished. Add back the missing code.

The RXON rework resulted in a massive loss of
throughput because we weren't programming the
device completely correctly -- the BSSID has
to be programmed into the device before the
AP station is uploaded. To fix this, simply
always send the unassoc RXON, i.e. even when
it was already unassoc so that the BSSID and
some other parameters are updated properly.

Garen noticed that this was wrong. Fix
the calibration -- default to multiple
chains and fall back to single where
possible.

"mac80211: Fix WMM driver queue configuration"
inadvertedly broke iwlwifi, because now mac80211
configures the QoS settings before assoc, and
therefore before HT. Thus, iwlwifi no longer told
the device about the HT setting, which it needs
to -- and thus throughput went down a lot. Fix
this by resending the QoS command to the device
not only when QoS/WMM settings change, but also
when HT changes.

When building 4965 without 5000+ there were a
lot of build errors due to functions being used
that weren't even compiled in. To fix this move
some code around and only compile the HCMD code
for 5000+ series as it's not used for 4965.

My previous patch to clean up all RXON handling
inadvertently broke IBSS because it failed to
take into account that unlike in AP mode, IBSS
requires beacons to be sent only after setting
the RXON assoc.
Fix this, clean up the code a bit, improve the
error checking around this, and also react to
beacon changes in IBSS mode from mac80211.

In order to simplify the flow, and make new
enhancements easier, separate out the RXON
processing for modern AGN (5000 and newer)
from RXON processing for the older 3945 and
4965 devices. Avoid changing these old ones
to avoid regressions and move their code to
a new file (iwl-legacy.c). 4965 gets the
commit_rxon that used to be common for all
AGN devices, but with removed PAN support.
The new RXON processing is more central and
does more work in committing, so that it is
easier to follow.
To make it more evident what is split out
for legacy, split the necessary operations
for that into a new struct iwl_legacy_ops.
Those parts that still exist in the new AGN
code don't need to be parametrized.
