Rajkumar Manoharan d88525e8fd ath9k_hw: Fix instable target power control b/w CCK/OFDM
The problem is that when the attenuation is increased,
the rate will start to drop from MCS7 -> MCS6, and finally
will see MCS1 -> CCK_11Mbps. When the rate is changed b/w
CCK and OFDM, it will use register desired_scale to calculate
how much tx gain need to change.

The output power with the same tx gain for CCK and OFDM modulated
signals are different. This difference is constant for AR9280
but not AR9285/AR9271. It has different PA architecture
a constant. So it should be calibrated against this PA
characteristic.

The driver has to read the calibrated values from EEPROM and set
the tx power registers accordingly.

Vivek Natarajan e8306f9894 mac80211: Check for queued frames before entering power save.
In a highly noisy environment, the tx rate of the driver drops and
the application slows down since it has not yet received ACKs for
the frames already queued in the hardware. Since this ACK may take
more than 100ms, stopping the dev queues for entering PS at this
stage breaks applications, WMM test cases in my testing.
If there are frames already pending in the tx queue, postponing the
PS logic helps to avoid redundant queue stops. When power save is
enabled by default and in a noisy environment, this API certainly
helps in improving the average throughput.

Johannes Berg 0da0e5bf15 iwlagn: clean up & autodetect statistics
There's no need to keep both normal and BT statistics
versions around all the time in memory when we only
use a subset of both. So keep only the subsets that
we need in memory, depending on the debug config).

Also, in doing so, we can remove all the calls to
iwl_bt_statistics() in the driver as we'll just
access the copied statistics now.

Finally, also remove this call from the one place
where it might still be needed and automatically
detect what kind of statistics the device is sending
based on their size. This way, we don't need to keep
track of which devices do what any more, which is
good since this is subject to change based on the
ucode version (as some ucode even for non-BT devices
will in fact use BT statistics).

Warn upon encountering a statistics command from the
ucode that isn't known, so we will find such issues
earlier in the future.

Garen Tamrazian 68b993118f iwlagn: fix radar frame rejection
The microcode may sometimes reject TX frames when
on a radar channel even after we associated as it
clears information during association and needs to
receive a new beacon before allowing that channel
again. This manifests itself as a TX status value
of TX_STATUS_FAIL_PASSIVE_NO_RX. So in this case,
stop the corresponding queue and give the frame
back to mac80211 for retransmission. We start the
queue again when a beacon from the AP is received
which will make the regulatory enforcement in the
device allow transmitting again.

Luis R. Rodriguez a90c7a313a cfg80211: add a timer for invalid user reg hints
We have no other option but to inform userspace that we
have queued up their regulatory hint request when we are
given one given that nl80211 operates atomically on user
requests. The best we can do is accept the request, and
add a delayed work item for processing failure and cancel it
if we succeeed. Upon failure we restore the regulatory
settings and ignore the user input.

This fixes this reported bug:

Luis R. Rodriguez 146095557b cfg80211: fix regulatory restore upon user hints
When we restore regulatory settings its possible CRDA
will not reply because of a bogus user entry. In this
case the bogus entry will prevent any further processing
on cfg80211 for regulatory domains even if we restore
regulatory settings.

To prevent this we suck out all pending requests when
restoring regulatory settings and add them back into the
queue after we have queued up the reset work.

The impact of not having this applied is that a user
with privileges can issue a userspace regulatory hint
while we are disasocciating and this would prevent any
further processing of regulatory domains.

Johannes Berg 02a7fa00a6 iwlagn: move IO functions out of line
This generates a massive reduction in module size:
with debug:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 670300	  13136	    420	 683856	  a6f50	iwlagn.ko (before)
 388347	  13136	    408	 401891	  621e3	iwlagn.ko (after)

without debug:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 528575	  13072	    420	 542067	  84573	iwlagn.ko (before)
 294192	  13072	    408	 307672	  4b1d8	iwlagn.ko (after)

This also removes all the IO debug functionality since
it can easily be replaced by tracing, and makes the
code unnecessarily complex.

I haven't done any CPU utilisation measurements, but
given that the hotpaths don't use much IO it is not
likely to have a negative impact; in fact, the size
reduction will reduce cache pressure which possibly
improves performance.

Finally, an unused function or two were removed.

Currently, however, there are a number of places

bit that leads to proper restart handling, which
means that in those cases things will probably just
hang completely.

To clean this up, make all ucode restart go through

called during firmware loading.

Also fix a bug in wimax coexist restart avoidance,
it needs to first clear the status bits (and it has
to clear the HCMD_ACTIVE one as well) and then wake

Rajkumar Manoharan 99e4d43ad5 ath9k: configure beacons based on hw opmode
Current ath9k code does not handle beacon timers on opmode
specific. One such example is that a STA beacon config overwrites
already configured AP vif's beacon timers during scan.

On multi station vif case, configure beacon timers beased
on primary vif selected. This also helps while moving back
to single STA vif from multi STA vifs, where the power save
is enabled and hw has to be reconfigured with proper
