6eb90d46c5 ath9k: remove unneeded calculation of minimal calibration power
Remove tMinCalPower from ath9k_hw_set_def_power_cal_table(), as it's
never used.  Remove corresponding arguments of the functions calculating
that value.

bbacee13f4 ath9k: merge noisefloor load implementations
AR5008+ and AR9003 currently use two separate implementations of the
ath9k_hw_loadnf function. There are three main differences:

 - PHY registers for AR9003 are different
 - AR9003 always uses 3 chains, earlier versions are more selective
 - The AR9003 variant contains a fix for NF load timeouts

This patch merges the two implementations into one, storing the
register array in the ath_hw struct. The fix for NF load timeouts is
not just relevant for AR9003, but also important for earlier hardware,
so it's better to just keep one common implementation.

9cc2f3e881 ath9k_hw: prevent a fast channel change after a rx DMA stuck issue
If the receive path gets stuck, a full hardware reset is necessary to
recover from it. If this happens during a scan, the whole scan might fail,
as each channel change bypasses the full reset sequence.
Fix this by resetting the fast channel change flag if stopping the
receive path fails.

This will reduce the number of error messages that look like this:
ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0x00000024 AR_DIAG_SW=0x40000020

601e0cb165 ath9k_hw: fix antenna diversity on AR9285
On AR9285, the antenna switch configuration register uses more than just
16 bits. Because of an arbitrary mask applied to the EEPROM value that
stores this configuration, diversity was broken in some cases, leading
to a significant degradation in signal strength.
Fix this by changing the callback to return a 32 bit value and remove
the arbitrary mask.

ab8966ddc2 rt2x00: Add missing TSF sync mode for AP operation
Currently rt2x00 uses the TSF_SYNC_BEACON mode for all beaconing
interface types. However, TSF_SYNC_BEACON is meant for IBSS networks and
thus implements TSF merging in the hardware. Rename TSF_SYNC_BEACON to
TSF_SYNC_ADHOC to better express its purpose and introduce the missing
TSF sync mode TSF_SYNC_AP_NONE which should be used for beaconing modes
that don't need TSF merging.

ab0ed4aba8 rt2x00: Remove set_tim callback from PCI drivers
Using the set_tim callback without managing the DTIM count and the
broad- and multicast buffering in hw, fw or the driver results in wrong
DTIM count values being sent out in beacons. Since all PCI drivers
fetch new beacons periodically and hence get an updated TIM we can just
remove the set_tim callback from these.

The rt2x00 USB drivers don't update the beacon periodically and thus
rely on the set_tim callback to get a correct TIM for beacon
transmission. USB devices still suffer from the DTIM count being wrong
under some circumstances but removing the set_tim callback from these
would cause more harm then good.

Use threaded interrupts for all rt2x00 PCI devices.

This has several generic advantages:
- Reduce the time we spend in hard irq context
- Use non-atmic mac80211 functions for rx/tx

Furthermore implementing broad- and multicast buffering will be
much easier in process context while maintaining low latency and
updating the beacon just before transmission (pre tbtt interrupt)
can also be done in process context.

7486192206 rt2x00: Convert AGC value from descriptor to RSSI (dBm)
The RSSI values in the RXWI descriptor aren't true RSSI
values. Instead they are more like the AGC values similar
to rt61pci. And as such, it needs the same conversion
before it can be passed to rt2x00lib/mac80211.

This requires the struct queue_entry to be passed to
rt2800_process_rxwi rather then the skb structure which
is contained in the queue_entry. This is required to
obtain the lna_gain information from the rt2x00_dev structure.

This fixes connection problems when using wpa_supplicant
which would try to connect to the worst AP's rather then the
best ones.

dev->name has IFNAMSIZ (16) characters.
prefix is local->dev->name.
name is "wds%d"

strlen() returns the number of characters in the string not counting the
NULL so if we have a string with 11 characters we get "12345678901wds%d"
which is 16 characters and a NULL so we're past the end of the array.

08688d6b1a wl1271: rewritten scanning code
This patch is a complete rewrite of the scanning code.  It now includes a
state machine to scan all four possible sets of channels independently:
2.4GHz active, 2.4GHz passive, 5GHz active and 5GHz passive.  The wl1271
firmware doesn't allow these sets to be mixed, so up to several scan commands
have to be issued.  This patch also allows scanning more than 24 channels per
set, by breaking the sets into smaller parts if needed (the firmware can scan
a maximum of 24 channels at a time).

Previously, the scanning code was erroneously scanning all channels possible
actively, not complying with the CRDA values.  This is also fixed with this
patch.

e6b190ff3c wl1271: read fem manufacturer value from nvs
We should read the fem manufacturer value from the NVS, so we can modify it
easily and use a consistent value throughout the configuration.  Previously
we had to set the FEM value in the NVS and in the driver's initialization
parameters.  This patch removes the latter.

90494a90be wl1271: Work around AP's with broken ps-poll functionality
Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll
functionality. When powersave is enabled, these AP's will set the TIM bit for
a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not
respond with data.

The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this
problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables
power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever
data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time.

This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the
chances of inbound data getting through.

The side effect of this patch is increased power consumption when using a
faulty AP.

849923f43c wl1271: Use all basic rates for ps-poll, instead of just the slowest
This improves ps-poll handling in WLAN PSM. It also improves performance,
including WLAN-BT co-existence reliability.

eb887dfd88 wl1271: Use the ARP configuration function from mac80211
This patch updates the driver to use the ARP configuration function from the
mac80211. Also, clean up IPv6 support from the ACX function as ARP is not
used with that protocol version.
