6b97cb04f2 rt2x00: Fix beacon descriptor writing for rt61pci.
The buffer address descriptor word is not part of the TXINFO structure
needed for beacons. The current writing of that word for beacons is
therefore an out-of-bounds write.
Fix this by only writing the buffer address descriptor word for TX
queues.

5ce6e438d5 mac80211: add offload channel switch support
This adds support for offloading the channel switch
operation to devices that support such, typically
by having specific firmware API for it. The reasons
for this could be that the firmware provides better
timing or that regulatory enforcement done by the
device requires special handling of CSAs.

In order to allow drivers to specify the timing to
the device, the new channel_switch callback will
pass through the received frame's mactime, where
available.

9637e516d1 ath5k: drop warning on jumbo frames
Jumbo frames are not supported, and if they are seen it is likely
a bogus frame so just silently discard them instead of warning on
them all time. Also, instead of dropping them immediately though
move the check *after* we check for all sort of frame errors. This
should enable us to discard these frames if the hardware picks
other bogus items first. Lets see if we still get those jumbo
counters increasing still with this.

Jumbo frames would happen if we tell hardware we can support
a small 802.11 chunks of DMA'd frame, hardware would split RX'd
frames into parts and we'd have to reconstruct them in software.
This is done with USB due to the bulk size but with ath5k we
already provide a good limit to hardware and this should not be
happening.

This is reported quite often and if it fills the logs then this
needs to be addressed and to avoid spurious reports.

2a87c26bbe iwlwifi: use iwl_find_station less

struct, many places need not look at the station
table any more since they can just pull the station

This reduces the amount of code needed to find the

mac80211 passes the station only after it has been
fully initialised, ie. even if TX races with
station addition it will only be passed to TX once
the addition is complete.

3bce606626 iwlagn: work around rate scaling reset delay
When station is using an HT channel to communicate to AP and communication
is lost then driver will first be notified that channel is not an HT
channel anymore before AP station is removed. A consequence of that is that
the driver will know that it is not communicating on HT anymore, but the
rate scaling table is still under the impression it is operating in HT. Any
time after driver has been notified channel is not HT anymore there will
thus be a firmware SYSASSERT when the current active LQ command is sent.

A workaround for this issue is to not send a LQ command in the short time between
being notified channel is not HT anymore and rate scaling table being
updated.

This fixes http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2173

2c810ccdba iwlwifi: rework broadcast station management
Currently, the broadcast station is managed along
with the interface type, rather than always being
present. That leads to a bug with injection -- it
is currently not possible to inject frames when
the only virtual interface is a monitor, because
in that the required broadcast station is missing.

Additionally, allocating and deallocating the
broadcast station's LQ all the time is wasteful,
and the code to support this is fairly complex.

So this changes completely the way we manage the
broadcast station. Rather than manage it along
with any interface, we now allocate it when we
bring the device up, and remove it again when we
bring the device down. When we bring the device
up, we don't immediately program the broadcast
station into it, instead we just mark it active
and rely on the next restore cycle to upload it
to the device. This works because an unassociated
RXON is always required at least once to set up
device parameters, which implies a reprogramming
of stations into the device.

As we now manage all stations properly, there no
longer is a need for forcing a clearing of them
via iwl_clear_ucode_stations(), which can become
a lot simpler.

1dda6d2837 iwlwifi: push virtual interface through
Rather than keeping every bit of information
around in priv and the virtual interface, add
a virtual interface to many functions and use
the information directly from it.

This removes beacon_int, assoc_capability and
assoc_id from struct iwl_priv.

3474ad635d iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly
Since iwl_configure_filter can now sleep since
the mac80211 callback was changed, we can now
apply filter flags changes directly.

Also, while at it, make the code a bit more
generic with a local macro. There's no need
to check changed_flags since we apply all at
the same time anyway.

We need not check iw_mode, since we have

93286db501 iwlagn: move iwl_get_ra_sta_id to 4965
This function is only needed by 4965, so
it need not be in core code and can be
made static.

dd7a2509b3 iwlagn: implement loading a new firmware file type
The old firmware file type does not allow indicating
any firmware capabilities, which we frequently want
to make things easier.

This implements a new firmware type that is based on
a TLV structure, and adds a TLV for the maximum length
of probe requests in scans.

0e9a44dc0b iwlagn: prepare for new firmware file format
Currently the first four bytes in a firmware file
indicate the major, minor and api versions as well
as the serial number. These combined can never be
zero, so we can use that special case for a new,
future, file format.

This patch simply shuffles the code and prepares
for that new format.
