The probe-request template used in the hardware connection monitoring feature
thus far has been an empty one, without the SSID IE and without supported rate
IEs. This causes problems with some AP's.
Additionally, after connected scans, the template for connection maintenance
would remain to be the one last used for scanning - potentially incorrect.
Fix these by getting a pre-filled directed probe-request template for the
associated-to AP from mac80211.

Instead of simply not scanning for the 11a channels when not supported by the
hardware, disable the channels in reg_notify. This centralizes the decision
on whether to scan 5GHz channel in one place and allows userspace to know
exactly which channels are in use.
Based on Juuso Oikarinen's idea.

It is possible that the op_remove_interface function is invoked exactly at
the same time has hw recovery is started. In this case it is possible for the
interface to be already removed in the op_remove_interface call, which
currently leads to a kernel warning and a subsequent kernel crash.
Fix this by ignoring the op_remove_interface call if the interface is already
down at that point.

On the disassociation event from the mac80211, the wl12xx driver does not
clear the chipset configuration related to the AP - i.e. it does not perform
a DISCONNECT and then a JOIN with zero SSID and dummy BSSID. Also, it does not
unset the BSSID filter.
Often this is not a problem, as the above is performed upon entering idle
state. But if a scenario arises where a new association is attempted without
cycling through idle state, the new association will fail.
Fix this by resetting the firmware state on disassociation.

Extend nl80211 to report an exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) of the

This adds generic functions for calculating Exponentially Weighted Moving
Averages (EWMA). This implementation makes use of a structure which keeps the
EWMA parameters and a scaled up internal representation to reduce rounding
errors.
The original idea for this implementation came from the rt2x00 driver
(rt2x00link.c). I would like to use it in several places in the mac80211 and
ath5k code and I hope it can be useful in many other places in the kernel code.

The code to handle powersaving stations has a race:
when the powersave flag is lifted from a station,
we could transmit a packet that is being processed
for TX at the same time right away, even if there
are other frames queued for it. This would cause
frame reordering. To fix this, lift the flag only
under the appropriate lock that blocks TX.
Additionally, the code to allow drivers to block a
station while frames for it are on the HW queue is
never re-enabled the station, so traffic would get
stuck indefinitely. Fix this by clearing the flag
for this appropriately.
Finally, as an optimisation, don't do anything if
the driver unblocks an already unblocked station.

Since the pointers after the rates in the tx info cannot be used anymore
after frames have been queued, this area can be used to store information
that was previously stored in the ath_buf. With these changes, we can delay
the ath_buf assignment in the aggregation code until aggregates are formed.
That will not only make it possible to simplify DMA descriptor setup to
do less rewriting of uncached memory, but will also make it easier to
move aggregation out of the core of the ath9k tx path.
