For mac revisions >= "Griffin," the hardware allows the mic tx and rx
authenticator keys to share the same cache line, whereas earlier
hardware can only store the rx. Enable the combined mic on hardware
that supports it.

Status: O
With the addition of TKIP (and soon CCMP), key->alg is a more useful
guide to key type than the key length.
This patch cleans up key type assignment in ath5k_hw_set_key by
extracting it into its own function. It also replaces the separate
memcpy() calls for extracting key material into the hardware format
with a loop that works regardless of key size.
Finally, the patch removes support for WEP-128 since it is a
non-standard key length that mac80211 also doesn't use.

*On a previous patch i splitted AR5K_INT_TX to multiple different TX
interrupt flags for better handling but i forgot to unmask the new
TXDESC and TXEOL interrupts on ath5k_init and only left TXOK. However
for each queue we enable TXDESC and TXEOL interrupts, not TXOK so we don't
handle TX interrupts at all (because these interrupts remain masked on
PISR) and under load it results packet loss. Fix the problem by
unmasking TXDESC and TXEOL on ath5k_init.

Noise floor calibration occasionally fails on Atheros hardware.
This is not fatal and can happen if there's simply too much
noise on the air. Ignoring the calibration error is the right
thing to do here, because when the error is ignored, the hardware
will still work, whereas if the error causes the driver to bail out
of a bigger configuration function and does not configure the tx
queues or the IMR (as is the case in reset.c), the hw no longer
works properly until the next reset.

ath5k_rx_status fields rs_antenna and rs_more are u8s, but we
were setting them with bitwise ANDs of 32-bit values.
As a consequence, jumbo frames would not be discarded as intended.
Then, because the hw rate value of such frames is zero, and, since
"ath5k: rates cleanup", we do not fall back to the basic rate, such

mac80211 rate structures we now setup a static ieee80211_rate array and use it
directly. no conversion between two different rate structures has to be done
any more. a lot of unused and confusing junk was deleted.
renamed ath5k_getchannels into ath5k_setup_bands because this is what it does.
rewrote it to copy the bitrates correctly for each band. this is necessary for
running different hardware with the same driver (e.g. 5211 and 5212 based
cards).
add special handling of rates for AR5211 chipsets: it uses different rate codes
for CCK rates (which are actually like the other chips but with a 0xF mask).
setup a hardware code to rate index reverse mapping table for getting the rate
index of received frames.
the rates for control frames which have to be set in
ath5k_hw_write_rate_duration are now in one single array.
