If the aggregate size exceeds the TXOP limit, it leads to lots of unnecessary
hardware and software retries.
The previous 4ms frame limit table was completely undocumented, the commit
that updated it only vaguely referenced and equation from the standard,
but I've been unable to replicate its results.
Fix this by using a formula based on the code in ath_pkt_duration, which is
more likely to be correct for this case.

mac80211 adds stations in HT IBSS as soon as a frame comes by,
even if the HT capabilities are not known yet (they are often
received later, e.g. in beacons). So far, ampdu factor/density
are only calculated when the station is initially added.
This patch changes this to update ampdu factor/density settings
when starting a blockack session.
Using this patch, we had performance boosts from 60 to 150 MBit/s
between two 2x2 Atheros devices in 5 GHz HT IBSS mode.

When BT FTP/PAN transmits while WLAN is idle, the one of 9462 chain
often picks up BT's tx signal and starts receiving. If the current
weight is set to be higher than BT tx, BT tx will be aborted and this
also degrades BT performance. Hence lower WLAN rx priority in this
case only when there are no WLAN traffic.

In the experiment with Azimuth ADEPT-n testbed where the APs transmit
power was reduced to 25% and the signal strength was futher attenuated
by 20dB and induced a path loss of ~7dB, the station was reporting
beacon losses and the following issue were observed.
* rx clear is stuck at low for more than 300ms
* dcu chain and complete state is stuck at one of the hang signature
This patch triggers the hang detection logic that recovers the chip
from any of the above conditions. As the issue was originally reported
in ChromeOs with AR9382 chips, this detection logic is enabled only for
AR9380/2 chips.

On a stress condition, it can be easily overflown which might cause

For uAPSD implementation, it is necessary to know on
which ACs frames are buffered. mac80211 obviously
knows about the frames it has buffered itself, but
with aggregation many drivers buffer frames. Thus,
mac80211 needs to be informed about this.
For now, since we don't have APSD in any form, this
will unconditionally set the TIM bit for the station
but later with uAPSD only some ACs might cause the
TIM bit to be set.
ath9k is the only driver using this API and I only
modify it in the most basic way, it won't be able
to implement uAPSD with this yet. But it can't do
that anyway since there's no way to selectively
release frames to the peer yet.
Since drivers will buffer frames per TID, let them
inform mac80211 on a per TID basis, mac80211 will
then sort out the AC mapping itself.
