Beginning with kernel 3.13, this driver fails on some systems. The problem
was bisected to:
Commit 1bf4bbb402

Title: mac80211: send control port protocol frames to the VO queue
There is noting wrong with the above commit. The regression occurs because
V0 queue on RTL8192SE cards uses priority 6, not the usual 7. The fix is to
modify the rtl8192se routine that sets the correct transmit queue.

The addition of a driver for the RTL8821AE requires a new API for the
fill_tx_desc() and set_desc() callback routines. This commit makes the
appropriate modifications in all the other drivers.

A few places weren't checking that the frame passed to the
function actually has enough data even though the function
clearly documents it must have a payload byte. Make this
safer by changing the function to take an skb and checking
the length inside. The old version is preserved for now as
the rtl* drivers use it and don't have a correct skb.

The routine that processes received frames was returning the RSSI value for the
signal strength; however, that value is available only for associated APs. As
a result, the strength was the absurd value of 10 dBm. As a result, scans
return incorrect values for the strength, which causes unwanted attempts to roam.
This patch fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63881.

Drivers that don't use chanctxes cannot perform VHT association because
they still use a "backward compatibility" pair of {ieee80211_channel,
nl80211_channel_type} in ieee80211_conf and ieee80211_local.

For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.
To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.
If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.
Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.
While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it
really happens...)

Transmit Power Control (TPC).
Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct
