This patch adds a routine to calculate the median IQ correction
values for AR955x, which is used for outlier detection.
The normal method which is used for all other chips is
bypassed for AR955x.

IQ calibration post-processing for AR955x is different
from other chips - instead of just doing it as part
of AGC calibration once, it is triggered 3 times and
a median is determined. This patch adds initial support
for changing the calibration behavior for AR955x.
Also, to simplify things, a helper routine to issue/poll
AGC calibration is used.
For non-AR955x chips, the iqcal_idx (which will be used
in subsequent patches) is set to zero.

There is no benefit in retaining the legacy rate control module
in the driver codebase.
It is known to be buggy and has less than optimal performance
in real-world environments compared with minstrel. The only
reason that it was kept when we made the switch to minstrel
as default was that it showed higher throughput numbers in a
clean/ideal environment.
This is no longer the case and minstrel can push ath9k to
the same throughput levels. In TCP, with 3-stream cards, more than
295 Mbps can be obtained in open air, with 2-stream cards,
210 Mbps is easily reached. To test performance issues,
instead of using a broken rate control module, it is better
to use the fixed-rate interface provided by mac80211 anyway.
The ath9k RC has not received any bug fixes in years and is
just bit-rotting away - this patch removes it.

The commit "ath9k: Fix IQ calibration" added a check
to ensure that valid i2_p_q2_a0_d1 values are not discarded.
But since it is masked with 0xfff earlier, the codepath
will not be executed.
The earlier case where all values above 0x800 were considered
invalid is incorrect, since the HW can return valid values
between 0x800 and 0xfff.

When receiving an IBSS_JOINED event select the BSS object
based on the {bssid, channel} couple rather than the bssid
only.
With the current approach if another cell having the same
BSSID (but using a different channel) exists then cfg80211
picks up the wrong BSS object.
The result is a mismatching channel configuration between
cfg80211 and the driver, that can lead to any sort of
problem.
The issue can be triggered by having an IBSS sitting on
given channel and then asking the driver to create a new
cell using the same BSSID but with a different frequency.
By passing the channel to cfg80211_get_bss() we can solve
this ambiguity and retrieve/create the correct BSS object.
All the users of cfg80211_ibss_joined() have been changed
accordingly.
Moreover WARN when cfg80211_ibss_joined() gets a NULL
channel as argument and remove a bogus call of the same
function in ath6kl (it does not make sense to call
cfg80211_ibss_joined() with a zero BSSID on ibss-leave).

[minor code cleanup in ath6kl]
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
The scheduled scan matchsets were intended to be a list of filters,
with the found BSS having to pass at least one of them to be passed
to the host. When the RSSI attribute was added, however, this was
broken and currently wpa_supplicant adds that attribute in its own
matchset; however, it doesn't intend that to mean that anything
that passes the RSSI filter should be passed to the host, instead
it wants it to mean that everything needs to also have higher RSSI.
This is semantically problematic because we have a list of filters
like [ SSID1, SSID2, SSID3, RSSI ] with no real indication which
one should be OR'ed and which one AND'ed.
To fix this, move the RSSI filter attribute into each matchset. As
we need to stay backward compatible, treat a matchset with only the
RSSI attribute as a "default RSSI filter" for all other matchsets,
but only if there are other matchsets (an RSSI-only matchset by
itself is still desirable.)
To make driver implementation easier, keep a global min_rssi_thold
for the entire request as well. The only affected driver is ath6kl.
I found this when I looked into the code after Raja Mani submitted
a patch fixing the n_match_sets calculation to disregard the RSSI,
but that patch didn't address the semantic issue.

sta_rc_update() callback must be atomic, hence we can not take mutexes
or do other operations, which can sleep in ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update().
I think we can just return from ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update(), if it is
called without IEEE80211_RC_SUPP_RATES_CHANGED bit. That will help
with scheduling while atomic bug for most cases (except mesh and IBSS
modes).
For mesh and IBSS I do not see other solution like creating additional
workqueue, because sending firmware command require us to sleep, but
this can be done in additional patch.
