55a2bb4a6d ath9k_hw: fix a RTS/CTS timeout regression
commit adb5066 "ath9k_hw: do not apply the 2.4 ghz ack timeout
workaround to cts" reduced the hardware CTS timeout to the normal
values specified by the standard, but it turns out while it doesn't
need the same extra time that it needs for the ACK timeout, it
does need more than the value specified in the standard, but only
for 2.4 GHz.

This patch brings the CTS timeout value in sync with the initialization
values, while still allowing adjustment for bigger distances.

f88373fa47 ath9k: fix a WEP crypto related regression
commit b4a82a0 "ath9k_hw: fix interpretation of the rx KeyMiss flag"
fixed the interpretation of the KeyMiss flag for keycache based lookups,
however WEP encryption uses a static index, so KeyMiss is always asserted
for it, even though frames are decrypted properly.
Fix this by clearing the ATH9K_RXERR_KEYMISS flag if no keycache based
lookup was performed.

07445f6882 ath9k: Fix kernel panic during driver initilization
all works need to be initialized before ieee80211_register_hw
to prevent mac80211 call backs such as drv_start, drv_config
getting started. otherwise we would queue/cancel works before
initializing them and it leads to kernel panic.
this issue can be recreated with the following script
in Chrome laptops with AR928X cards, with background scan
running (or) Network manager is running

while true
do
sudo modprobe -v ath9k
sleep 3
sudo modprobe -r ath9k
sleep 3

7a532fe713 ath9k_hw: fix interpretation of the rx KeyMiss flag
Documentation states that the KeyMiss flag is only valid if RxFrameOK is
unset, however empirical evidence has shown that this is false.
When KeyMiss is set (and RxFrameOK is 1), the hardware passes a valid frame
which has not been decrypted. The driver then falsely marks the frame
as decrypted, and when using CCMP this corrupts the rx CCMP PN, leading
to connection hangs.

1a19f77f36 ath9k: Fix regression in channelwidth switch at the same channel
The commit "ath9k: Fix invalid noisefloor reading due to channel update"
preserves the current channel noisefloor readings before updating
channel type at the same channel index. It is also updating the curchan
pointer. As survey updation is also referring curchan pointer to fetch
the appropriate index, which might leads to invalid memory access. This
patch partially reverts the change and stores the noise floor history
buffer before updating channel type w/o updating curchan.

016c217791 ath9k_hw: increase tx status ring buffer size
AR9003 chips read tx status from ring buffer whose max number of
status descriptor is mininal compared to max number of tx buffers.
On a stress condition, it can be easily overflown which might cause
false tx hung detection. Though increasing number of max status
descriptors consumes more memory, it helps to avoid false positive
chip resets.

8a30930563 ath9k_hw: make bluetooth coexistence support optional at compile time
Many systems (e.g. embedded systems) do not have wifi modules connected to
bluetooth modules, so bluetooth coexistence is irrelevant there. With the
addition of MCI support, ath9k picked up quite a bit of extra code that
can be compiled out this way.

This patch redefines ATH9K_HW_CAP_MCI and adds an inline wrapper for
querying the bluetooth coexistence scheme, allowing the compiler to
eliminate code that uses it, with only very little use of #ifdef.

On MIPS this reduces the total size for the modules by about 20k.

3ad2952998 ath9k: simplify tx locking
Instead of releasing and taking back the lock over and over again in the
tx path, hold the lock a bit longer, requiring much fewer lock/unlock pairs.
This makes locking much easier to review and should not have any noticeable
performance/latency impact.

da647626c7 ath9k: change maximum software retransmission handling
Instead of limiting a subframe to 10 A-MPDU software transmission attempts,
count hardware retransmissions as well and raise the limit a bit. That way
there will be fewer software retransmission attempts when traffic suffers
from lots of hardware retransmissions.

cc78d6b16a ath9k_hw: Fix handling of MCI interrupt
in my previous patches of handling MCI interrupt I overlooked
the case of interrupt status/mask variable being zeroed out in
the below code, so ath_isr does not cache the MCI interrupt
in the intrstatus. finally MCI interrupt handling won't be
handled in ath9k_tasklet for the scheduled interrupts.
Fix this by moving the MCI interrupt code in the appropriate
position in ar9003_hw_get_isr

10636bc2d6 ath9k: fix max phy rate at rate control init
The stations always chooses 1Mbps for all trasmitting frames,
whenever the AP is configured to lock the supported rates.
As the max phy rate is always set with the 4th from highest phy rate,
this assumption might be wrong if we have less than that. Fix that.

4f17c48e39 ath9k: enable ANI for ar9100 chips
Enable ANI for ar9100 since it seems to be working fine (and as a
matter of fact ANI was always performed for ar9100 since code which
was supposed to disable it didn't achieve this goal).
  This patch sets config.enable_ani to default (true) value for
ar9100.

4279425cef ath9k: use config.enable_ani to check if ani should be performed
Currently in ath9k code there is an attempt which is meant to
disable ANI for ar9100 and ar9340. But it doesn't really achieve
this. All it does is disable ANI init and setup (i.e. calls to
ath9k_hw_ani_setup and ath9k_hw_ani_init). Since ath9k_hw_ani_setup is
not called ah->config.ani_poll_interval is never initialized (i.e. it
is always zero) and ath_ani_calibrate always executes ANI procedures
(over uninitialized ANI parameters).
  Moreover, ath_ani_calibrate is being called each 1ms because
common->ani.timer is set to zero interval because
ah->config.ani_poll_interval==0 (and thus smallest value of all
intervals). Normally it should not be called this often.
  This patch changes the code so config.enable_ani is used to check if
ANI should be performed.
  config.enable_ani is initialized to true by default. This patch sets
it to false for ar9100 and ar9340.

9df0d6a20a ath9k: only drop packets in drv_flush when asked to
Recently more places in mac80211 call drv_flush to ensure proper order
for state changes wrt. powersave, channel changes, etc. On some systems
such calls lead to spurious logspam about failing to stop tx dma, as well
as hardware resets that go along with that.
Instead of dropping packets in a place where it's completely unnecessary,
only do it when drop == true.

c0c1174144 ath9k: rework power state handling
Turning off the radio when mac80211 tells the driver that it's idle is not
a good idea, as idle interfaces might still occasionally scan or send packets.
The only time the radio can be safely turned off is when drv_stop has been
called. In the mean time, use sc->ps_idle only to indicate network sleep vs
full sleep.
Move the LED GPIO changes out of the PCI suspend/resume path, the start/stop
functions already take care of that.
