This patch updates mac80211 and drivers to be multi-queue aware and
use that instead of the internal queue mapping. Also does a number
of cleanups in various pieces of the code that fall out and reduces
internal mac80211 state size.

There really is no reason for a driver to reject a frame on
an A-MPDU queue when it can stop that queue for any period
of time and is given frames one by one. Hence, disallow it
with a big warning and reduce mac80211-internal state.
Also add a warning when we try to fragment a frame destined
for an A-MPDU queue and drop it, the actual bug needs to be
fixed elsewhere but I'm not exactly sure how to yet.

The zd1211rw driver uses unaligned stack buffer for USB control

This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit
information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra
memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit,
a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps
is kept outside of the union.
A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part
of this patch.

The next patch will require that transmit handlers that are after

This patch modifies struct ieee80211_tx_control to give band
info and the rate index (instead of rate pointers) to drivers.
This mostly serves to reduce the TX control structure size to
make it fit into skb->cb so that the fragmentation code can
put it there and we can think about passing it to drivers that
way in the future.

Having drivers start queues is just confusing, their ->start()
callback can block and do whatever is necessary, so let mac80211
start queues and have drivers wake queues when necessary (to get

The mesh_path_node_copy() can be called like this:
mesh_path_add
`- write_lock(&pathtbl_resize_lock); /* ! */
`- mesh_table_grow
`- ->copy_node
`- mesh_path_node_copy
thus, the GFP_KERNEL is not suitable here.
The acceptable fix, I suppose, is make this allocation GPF_ATOMIC -
the mpath_node being allocated is 4 pointers, i.e. this allocation
is small enough to survive even under a moderate memory pressure.

(This set applies OK without the previous one of 4 patches,
but with some fuzz in the 7th one)
The mesh_path_node_free() does so under hashwlock.
But, this one is called
1. from mesh_path_add() after an old hash is hidden and
synchronize_rcu() is calld
2. mesh_pathtbl_unregister(), when the module is being
unloaded and no devices exist to mess with this hash.
So, it seems to me, that simply removing the call is OK.
