de1c732b18 ath: optimize processing of CTLs for country IEs for world roaming cards
When we receive a country IE hint and we have a world roaming card
we can optimize output power further by ensuring that we use the
calibrated data for the country by using that country's own CTL data.
That is -- when world roaming and when we process a country IE we
no longer need to use the lowest output power of all CTLs instead
we use an optimized CTL output power for that specific country.

We accomplish this by copying the regulatory data prior on init
and restoring it when cfg80211 tells us it gets a core hint. Core
hints are only sent on init and when it wants to restore reguulatory
settings. We take advantage of this fact and apply the cached
regulatory data when we get a core hint. When we get a country IE
hint though we process the regulatory data as if programmed for
a specific country.

cc78d6b16a ath9k_hw: Fix handling of MCI interrupt
in my previous patches of handling MCI interrupt I overlooked
the case of interrupt status/mask variable being zeroed out in
the below code, so ath_isr does not cache the MCI interrupt
in the intrstatus. finally MCI interrupt handling won't be
handled in ath9k_tasklet for the scheduled interrupts.
Fix this by moving the MCI interrupt code in the appropriate
position in ar9003_hw_get_isr

4f17c48e39 ath9k: enable ANI for ar9100 chips
Enable ANI for ar9100 since it seems to be working fine (and as a
matter of fact ANI was always performed for ar9100 since code which
was supposed to disable it didn't achieve this goal).
  This patch sets config.enable_ani to default (true) value for
ar9100.

4279425cef ath9k: use config.enable_ani to check if ani should be performed
Currently in ath9k code there is an attempt which is meant to
disable ANI for ar9100 and ar9340. But it doesn't really achieve
this. All it does is disable ANI init and setup (i.e. calls to
ath9k_hw_ani_setup and ath9k_hw_ani_init). Since ath9k_hw_ani_setup is
not called ah->config.ani_poll_interval is never initialized (i.e. it
is always zero) and ath_ani_calibrate always executes ANI procedures
(over uninitialized ANI parameters).
  Moreover, ath_ani_calibrate is being called each 1ms because
common->ani.timer is set to zero interval because
ah->config.ani_poll_interval==0 (and thus smallest value of all
intervals). Normally it should not be called this often.
  This patch changes the code so config.enable_ani is used to check if
ANI should be performed.
  config.enable_ani is initialized to true by default. This patch sets
it to false for ar9100 and ar9340.

9df0d6a20a ath9k: only drop packets in drv_flush when asked to
Recently more places in mac80211 call drv_flush to ensure proper order
for state changes wrt. powersave, channel changes, etc. On some systems
such calls lead to spurious logspam about failing to stop tx dma, as well
as hardware resets that go along with that.
Instead of dropping packets in a place where it's completely unnecessary,
only do it when drop == true.

c0c1174144 ath9k: rework power state handling
Turning off the radio when mac80211 tells the driver that it's idle is not
a good idea, as idle interfaces might still occasionally scan or send packets.
The only time the radio can be safely turned off is when drv_stop has been
called. In the mean time, use sc->ps_idle only to indicate network sleep vs
full sleep.
Move the LED GPIO changes out of the PCI suspend/resume path, the start/stop
functions already take care of that.

c8e8868e3b ath9k: always issue a full hw reset after waking up from full-sleep mode
After waking up from full sleep, registers are accessible, but rx/tx
typically fails. A fast channel change will not recover from this, so
ensure that a full-sleep -> wake transition is always followed by a full
reset.

The reason why this hasn't created any serious problems yet is that it's
hidden by the (wrong) behavior of enabling/disabling the radio when the
wiphy idle state changes.

OK for UAPSD traffic.

Note that DCU 8 and 9 are special because they can only be mapped to a single
QCU each but since we use a 1:1 mapping between QCUs and DCUs anyway we don't
have to change much.

P.S. I also did a few related cleanups on qcu.c and ath5k.h

c47faa364c ath5k: Cleanups v2 + add kerneldoc on all hw functions
No functional changes

Add kernel doc for all ath5k_hw_* functions and strcucts. Also do some cleanup,
rename ath5k_hw_init_beacon to ath5k_hw_init_beacon_timers, remove an unused
variable from ath5k_hw_pcu_init and a few obsolete macros, mostly related to XR.

ce169aca0d ath5k: Calibration re-work
Noise floor calibration does not interfere with traffic and should run more
often as part of our "short calibration". The full calibration is not the
noise floor calibration but the AGC + Gain_F (on RF5111 and RF5112) calibration
and should run less often because it does interfere with traffic.

So

Short calibration -> I/Q & NF Calibration
Long calibration -> Short + AGC + Gain_F

This patch was for some time on my pub/ dir on www.kernel.org and has been tested
by a few people and me. I think it's O.K. to go in.

I also changed ah_calibration to ah_iq_cal_needed to make more sense.

v2 Use a workqueue instead of a tasklet for calibration

7ff7c82ee4 ath5k: Switch from read-and-clear to write-to-clear method when handling PISR/SISR registers
Since card has 12 tx queues and we want to keep track of the interrupts
per queue we can't fit all these interrupt bits on a single register.
So we have 5 registers, the primary interrupt status register (PISR) and
the 4 secondary interupt status registers (SISRs).

In order to be able to read them all at once (atomic operation) Atheros
introduced the Read-And-Clear registers to make things easier. So when
reading RAC_PISR register, hw does a read on PISR and all SISRs, returns
the value of PISR, copies all SISR values to their shadow copies (RAC_SISRx)
and clears PISR and SISRs. This saves us from reading PISR/SISRs in a sequence.

So far we 've used this approach and MadWiFi/Windows driver etc also used it
for years.

It turns out this operation is not atomic after all (at least not on all cards)
That means it's possible to loose some interrupts because they came after the
copy step and hw cleared them on the clean step !

That's probably the reason we got missed beacons, got stuck queues etc and
couldn't figure out what was going on.

With this patch we switch from RaC operation to an alternative method (that
makes more sense IMHO anyway, I just chose to be on the safe side so far).
Instead of reading RAC registers, we read the normal PISR/SISR registers and
clear any bits we got by writing them back on the register. This will clear only
the bits we got on our read step and leave any new bits unaffected (at least
that's what docs say). So if any new interrupts come up we won't miss it.

I've tested this with an AR5213 and an AR2425 and it seems O.K.

Many thanks to Adrian Chadd for debuging this and reviewing the patch !

v2: Make sure we don't clear PISR bits that map to SISR generated interrupts
(added a comment on the code for this)
