d007b7f42e b43(legacy): include full timestamp in beacon frames
Having the full RX timestamp in beacons is necessary for IBSS
merge to work properly so extend the 16-bit timestamp to the
full 64 bits for beacon frames (as well as when monitor mode
is active.)

9d9bf77d16 mac80211: enable IBSS merging
enable IBSS cell merging. if an IBSS beacon with the same channel, same ESSID
and a TSF higher than the local TSF (mactime) is received, we have to join its
BSSID. while this might not be immediately apparent from reading the 802.11
standard it is compliant and necessary to make IBSS mode functional in many
cases. most drivers have a similar behaviour.

* move the relevant code section (previously only containing debug code) down
to the end of the function, so we can reuse the bss structure.

* we have to compare the mactime (TSF at the time of packet receive) rather
than the current TSF. since mactime is defined as the time the first data
symbol arrived we add the time until byte 24 where the timestamp resides, since
this is how the beacon timestamp is defined. as some some drivers are not able
to give a reliable mactime we fall back to use the current TSF, which will be
enough to catch most (but not all) cases where an IBSS merge is necessary.

* in IBSS mode we want to allow beacons to override probe response info so we
can correctly do merges.

* we don't only configure beacons based on scan results, so change that
message.

* to enable this we have to let all beacons thru in IBSS mode, even if they
have a different BSSID.

c132bec33c mac80211: better definition of mactime
define mactime as the time when the first data symbol arrived at the HW. the
old definition was questionable because 802.11 defines timestamp only for
beacon and probe response frames, and there it means the timestamp field.

a stricter definition of mactime is necessary for correct merging of IBSS.

note that it is up to the driver to convert whatever its hardware returns to
this definition. unfortunately we don't know for example when atheros hardware
takes its rx timestamp exactly :(

This changes mac80211 to pass the burst time to conf_tx in txop
units rather than 0.1msec units. 0.1msec units are only required
by atheros hardware (according to current driver support), all
other drivers do other calculations or require the txop value.
Therefore, it results in fewer calculations and more precision
if we just pass the txop value through to the driver.

e9ddc0f25c ath5k: Use our own Kconfig file, we'll be expanding this shortly
Apologoes, this is a re-post of patch-04, forgot to git-add
our Kconfig... New series (only 2 patches needed fixing, which
I am reposting) can be found here:

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mcgrof/patches/ath5k/2008-02-04.v2/

Use our own Kconfig file, we'll be expanding this shortly.

a3f4b914a0 ath5k: ath5k_copy_channels() was not setting the channel band
ath5k_copy_channels() wasn't setting the channel's band so all
driver channels had a 2GHz band set. Lets set this.

400ec45a02 ath5k: Cleanup after API changes
Cleanup after API changes patch (checkpatch.pl stuff) and on
ath5k_hw_channel() make use of the existing ath5k_channel_ok()
instead of re-implementing the checks again. This was necessary
to make the code cleaner and fit the 80-chars wide limit so
sending it within the same patch.

Finally make a note that we *may* eventually move cap_range stuff
to struct wiphy (band frequency range capabilities). This
information can later be exported to userspace, for example,
and giving it access to mac80211 and drivers in general can come
in handy.

d8ee398d18 ath5k: Port to new bitrate/channel API
Author: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com>

Tested on 5211, 5213+5112, 5213A+2112A and it wors fine.

Also i figured out a way to process rate vallue found
on status descriptors, it's still buggy but we are getting
closer (i think it improved stability a little).
