These are the remaining knobs in ath9k to support DFS:
* mark AR9280 and AR9580 as DFS tested
* synchronize DFS regulatory domain to reg notifyer
* set required RX filter flags for radar detection
* process radar PHY errors at DFS detector
* notify DFS master on radar detection
DFS support requires CONFIG_ATH9K_DFS_CERTIFIED to be set.

Marco Fonseca reported a issue with his carl9170 device:
"I'm seeing a problem with the carl driver. If I change channels
repeatedly on the 2.4ghz band, monitoring (e.g. tcpdump) will
eventually halt. I've seen this on various versions of the carl
driver/firmware (both from 1.9.4 to 1.9.7)"
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=136381302428113>
The culprit was identified as "fast channel change feature" which
according to Adrian Chadd is: "... notoriously unreliable and
really only fully debugged on some very later chips."
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=136416984531380>
Therefore, this patch removes the fast channel change feature.
The phy will now always have to go through a cold reset when
changing channels, but it should no longer become deaf.

The commit 'ath9k_hw: fix calibration issues on chainmask that don't
include chain 0' changed the hardware chainmask to the chip chainmask
for the duration of the calibration, but the revert to user
configuration in the reset path runs too early.
That causes some issues with limiting the number of antennas (including
spurious failure in hardware-generated packets).
Fix this by reverting the chainmask after the essential parts of the
calibration that need the workaround, and before NF calibration is run.

Either first 3 bytes of the first received tcp segment or last one
over MTU size file can be loss due to the byte alignment problem.
Although ATH6KL_HTC_ALIGN_BYTES was defined for 'extra bytes for htc header
alignment' in the patch "Fix buffer alignment for scatter-gather
I/O"(1df94a857), there exists the bytes loss issue which means that it will be
truncated 3 bytes in the transmitted file contents if a file which has over MTU
size is transferred through TCP/IP stack. It doesn't look like TCP/IP stack
bug of 3.5 or the latest version of kernel but the byte alignment issue. This
patch is to use the roundup() function for the byte alignment rather than the
predefined ATH6KL_HTC_ALIGN_BYTES.

Now all log messages are sent through the tracing infrastruture as well.
Tracing point doesn't follow debug_mask module parameter, instead it sends
all debug messages, so once you enable ath6kl_log_dbg tracing point you will
get a lot of messages. Needs to be discussed if this is sensible or not.
The overhead should be small enough and we anyway include debug level as
well so it's easy to filter in user space.
I wasn't really sure what to do with ath6kl_dbg_dump() and for now decided
that it also sends the buffer to user space. But most likely in the future
ath6kl_dbg_dump() should go away in favor of using proper tracing points, but

In order to comprehensively check the API parameters parse
everything first, and then have the driver call a function

information about the kind of station that is being changed;
this allows the function to make better decisions than the
old code could.
While at it, also add a few checks, particularly in mesh

To be able to reduce a few checks, ignore any flag set bits

On many different chips, important aspects of the MAC state are not
fully cleared by a warm reset. This can show up as tx/rx hangs, those
annoying "DMA failed to stop in 10 ms..." messages or other quirks.
On AR933x, the chip can occasionally get stuck in a way that only a
driver unload/reload or a reboot would bring it back to life.
With this patch, a full reset is issued when bringing the chip out of
FULL-SLEEP state (after idle), or if either Rx or Tx was not shut down
properly. This makes the DMA related error messages disappear completely
in my tests on AR933x, and the chip does not get stuck anymore.

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...)

On joining an existing IBSS network, beaconing has to start
only after a TSF sync has happened by receiving a beacon from
the BSS. In creator mode, beaconing can start immediately after
a HW reset has been done.
Now that mac80211 notifies the driver of the mode type (creator/joiner)
via ieee80211_bss_conf->ibss_creator, make use of it to properly setup
the HW beacon timers.

There are a few places where the station's HT capabilities
should be checked instead of ATH9K_HW_CAP_HT, which is a global
feature for the driver. Fix this.

alloc failures already get standardized OOM
messages and a dump_stack.
For the affected mallocs around these OOM messages:
Converted kmallocs with multiplies to kmalloc_array.
Converted a kmalloc/memcpy to kmemdup.
Removed now unused stack variables.
Removed unnecessary parentheses.
Neatened alignment.

It can, if invalid argument given, return a negative value. In that
case we would access arrays out-of-bounds and such. Check the value
and yell loudly if that happened as it would be a bug in the
implementation. (Instead of silently corrupting memory.)

The spectral scan support activated through ATH9K_DEBUGFS depends on RELAY for

The RELAY is added as select instead of depend to do it similar like
