Event though with the above commit we obtain the configured DTIM period

* Preventing association with broken AP's
* Adds latency in roaming
So its better to always use the safe value of '1' for dtim period

It looks like some hardware registers are left into undefined state
after suspend/resume. At minimum, this can cause odd issues related to
key cache and hardware trying to encrypt/decrypt frames unexpectedly.
This seems to happen even when there is no keys configured, i.e., hardware
can end up touching TX frames just based of invalid key cache context
even if the driver is not asking a specific entry to be used. In
addition, RX can likely be affected. This patch fixes this issue.

Add a new variable to keep track of the currently configured tx power. Before
max_pwr was re-used for keeping the maximum allowed power as well as the
current configuration. Doing a min() on it allows you to lower the txpower, but
how would you be able to make it higher again?
This patch fixes that by adding a new variable ah_cur_pwr which is used instead
of txp_max_pwr to keep the current configuration. txp_max_pwr is used to check
if we are within the limits.
Another problem fixed by this patch is that it avoids setting a zero txpower
when things are initialized first and the current power is not yet set.

on driver stop() and on resume but forgot to take into account
ath9k's own virtual wiphy idle states. These are used internally
by ath9k to check if the device's radio should be powered down
on each idle call. Without this change its possible that the

The commit 'ath9k_hw: Disable PAPRD for rates with low Tx power' changed
the code that sets the PAPRD rate masks to use only either the HT20 mask
or the HT40 mask. This is wrong, as the hardware can still use HT20 rates
even when configured for HT40, and the operating channel mode does not
affect PAPRD operation.
The register for the HT40 rate mask is applied as a mask on top of the
other registers to selectively disable PAPRD for specific rates on HT40
packets only.
This patch changes the code back to the old behavior which matches the
intended use of these registers. While with current cards this should not
make any practical difference (according to Atheros, the HT20 and HT40
mask should always be equal), it is more correct that way, and maybe
the HT40 mask will be used for some rare corner cases in the future.

turn off based on GPIO input, however that code was hardcoded to GPIO 0
instead of ah->rfkill_gpio.
Since ath9k uses software rfkill anyway, this code is completely unnecessary
and should be removed in case anything else ever uses GPIO 0.

To improve aggregation length, there should not be more than two fully formed
A-MPDU frames in the hardware queue. To ensure this, the code checks the tx
queue length before forming new A-MPDUs. This can reduce the throughput (or
maybe even starve out A-MPDU traffic) when too many non-aggregated frames are
in the queue.
Fix this by keeping track of pending A-MPDU frames (even when they're sent out
as single frames), but exclude rate control probing frames to improve
performance.

Fix runtime warning with backtrace from hostap by removing
netif_stop_queue() call before register_netdev. Tested to work fine on
hostap_pci Prism 2.5.
(This removes a warning about calling netif_stop_queue before
register_netdev is called. -- JWL)

All rt2x00 drivers except rt2800pci call ieee80211_tx_status() from
a workqueue, which causes "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08" messages.
To fix it, add ieee80211_tx_status_ni() similar to ieee80211_rx_ni()
which can be called from process context, and call it from
rt2x00lib_txdone(). For the rt2800pci special case a driver
flag is introduced.
