add a debugfs file to see different RX and TX errors as reported in our status
descriptors. this can help to diagnose driver problems.
statistics can be cleared by writing 'clear' into the frameerrors file.
example:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/frameerrors

PHY 3 (1%)
FIFO 0 (0%)
decrypt 0 (0%)

jumbo 0 (0%)
[RX all 245]
TX
---------------------
retry 2 (9%)
FIFO 0 (0%)
filter 0 (0%)
[TX all 21]

rndis_query_oid() uses full output buffer size to copy response buffer
from rndis_command()/device. This doesn't cause problems as response buffer
is sized based on output buffer but does copy extra unset bytes.
So change rndis_query_oid() so that only meaningful bytes are being copied.
Also in case of malfunctioning device/cable/etc returned data offset from
device might be wrong so bound check memory access correctly, so add
checks for this.

Currently, the padding position is based on
ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb(). This is not correct since the HW does
padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the
following position :
- management : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- control : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS
- invalid : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is :
- management : 24
- control : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10
- data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order
- invalid : 24
So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use
4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ...
not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for
debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it
correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding.
Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before
calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor
interfaces.
It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb
based card (netgear WNDA3100) using a frame generator and a monitor
interface for each card.

I discovered that if EMBEDDED=y, one can accidentally build a mac80211 stack
and drivers w/ no rate control algorithm. For drivers like RTL8187 that don't
supply their own RC algorithms, this will cause ieee80211_register_hw to
fail (making the driver unusable).
This will tell kconfig to provide a warning if no rate control algorithms
have been selected. That'll at least warn the user; users that know that
their drivers supply a rate control algorithm can safely ignore the
warning, and those who don't know (or who expect to be using multiple
drivers) can select a default RC algorithm.

I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors
on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this
patch they are between 0% and 3%.
1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration
(f1cf2dbd0f)" resulted in no mask beeing used
when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the
calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the
masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should
always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register.
2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we
convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low
numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later
on.
3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor
optimizations from there.
4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can
contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE
bit last, like the HAL does.

when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx
descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the
other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default
antenna and diversity settings (esp. AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA).
also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly
on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames
might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some
times, causing packet loss.
this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch
and a spectrum analyzer.

Recent patch "iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" exposed a memory
corruption problem. When initializing the clip groups the code was
mistakenly using the iwlagn rate count, not the 3945 rate count. This
resulted in more memory being written than was allocated.
"iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" moved the location where the
clip groups are stored and the impact is now severe in that the number of
configured TX queues is modified. Previously the
"temperature" field was overwritten, which did not seem to affect the
operation.
Fix this one instance where wrong rate count was used. I also noticed one
more location where the iwlagn rate count was used to index an iwl3945
array, fix this. I also modified one location that modified the iwlagn rate
count to obtain the iwl3945 rate count ... just use the iwl3945 rate count
directly.

4965 hardware has 7 queues reserved and the
remaining ones used for aggregation, 5000
and higher need to have 10 reserved. This
is not very clear in the code right now,
unfortunately.
Introduce a new IWL_TX_FIFO_UNUSED constant
and make the queue/FIFO mapping arrays able
to hold that value, and change the setup
code to reserve all queues in the arrays
(the queue number is the index) and use the
new unused constant to not map those queues
to any FIFO.
Additionally, clear up the AC/queue mapping
code to be more understandable. The mapping
is the identity mapping right now, but with
the mapping function I think it's easier to
understand what happens there.
Finally, HCCA isn't implemented at all and
I think newer microcode removed it, so let's
remove all mention of it in the code, some
