9c9a0d145f rt2x00: Update copyright statements.
As mentioned on the linux-wireless mailing list, the current copyright
statements in the rt2x00 are meaningless, as the rt2x00 project is
not even a formal legal entity. Therefore it is better to replace
the existing copyright statements with copyright statements for the
people that actually wrote the code.

Note: Updated to the best of my knowledge with respect to who
contributed considerable amounts of code.

53bc647a1a rt2x00: Remove check for rf word 0
The only way rf_write() can be called with word 0 is
when the user sends the wrong word index through debugfs.
However the values which are send through debugfs are
validated using the RF_BASE and RF_SIZE macro values,
the most logical solution is to increase RF_BASE with 4
and decrease RF_SIZE with 4 (RF_SIZE has always been
1 word too big)

7396faf4f3 rt2x00: Add RFKILL support to rt2500usb and rt73usb
Some very rare Ralink USB hardware exists which features
the RFKILL switch on the USB stick.
This patch adds the EEPROM check function to see if RFKILL
is supported and the polling function to rt2500usb and
rt73usb in order to support RFKILL for that hardware.

8c5e7a5f59 rt2x00: Gather channel information in structure
Channel information which is read from EEPROM should
be read into an array containing per-channel information.
This removes the requirement of multiple arrays and makes
the channel handling a bit cleaner and easier to expand.

61448f8807 rt2x00: Fix queue related oops in case of deselected mac80211 multi-queue feature.
With the integration of the mac80211 multiqueue patches it has become possible that the
mac80211 layer modifies the number of TX queues that is stored inside the ieee80211_hw
structure, especially when multi-queue is not selected.

The rt2x00 drivers are not well suited to handle that situation, as they allocate the
queue structures before mac80211 has modified the number of queues it is going to use,
and also expect the number of allocated queues to match the hardware implementation.

Hence, ensure that rt2x00 maintains by itself the number of queues that the hardware
supports, and, at the same time, making is not dependent on the preservation of contents
inside a mac80211 structure.

6bb40dd13b rt2x00: Add per-interface structure
Rework the interface handling. Delete the interface structure
and replace it with a per-interface structure. This changes the
way rt2x00 handles the active interface drastically.

Copy ieee80211_bss_conf to the this rt2x00_intf structure during
the bss_info_changed() callback function. This will allow us to
reference it later, and removes the requirement for the device flag
SHORT_PREAMBLE flag which is interface specific.

Drivers receive the option to give the maximum number of virtual
interfaces the device can handle. Virtual interface support:
rt2400pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt2500pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt2500usb: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt61pci: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt73usb: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces

At the moment none of the drivers support AP and STA interfaces
simultaneously, this is a hardware limitation so future support
will be very unlikely.

Each interface structure receives its dedicated beacon entry,
with this we can easily work with beaconing while multiple master
mode interfaces are currently active.

The configuration handlers for the MAC, BSSID and type are
often called together since they all belong to the interface
configuration. Merge the 3 configuration calls and cleanup
the API between rt2x00lib and the drivers. While we are cleaning
up the interface configuration anyway, we might as well clean up
the configuration handler as well.

181d6902b6 rt2x00: Queue handling overhaul
This introduces a big queue handling overhaul, this also
renames "ring" to "queues".

Move queue handling into rt2x00queue.c and the matching header,
use Kerneldoc to improve rt2x00 library documentation.

Access to the queues is now protected under a spinlock, this
to prevent race conditions which could corrupt the indexing
system of the queue.

Each queue entry allocates x bytes for driver/device specific data,
this cleans up the queue structure significantly and improves
code readability.

rt2500usb no longer needs 2 entries in the beacon queue to correctly
send out the guardian byte. This is now handled in the entry specific
structure.

rt61 and rt73 now use the correct descriptor size for beacon frames,
since this data is written into the registers not the entire TXD
descriptor was used but instead of a subset of it named TXINFO.

Finally this also fixes numerous other bugs related to incorrect
beacon handling or beacon related code.

e4cd2ff89f rt2x00: Split rt61/rt73 antenna selection into RX and TX antenna
Based on investigation of the legacy drivers, I have made the
following assumptions of the antenna setup:
 - R77 is the TX antenna configuration
 - RF2529 fetches default antenna selection from NIC eeprom word

With these assumptions we can change the antenna configuration
to correctly read both antenna setup values and correctly
configure the antenna. And we can now also configure the antenna
for RF2529 without a double antenna.

4150c57212 [PATCH] mac80211: revamp interface and filter configuration
Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor
interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and
they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc.

This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list()
callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes
filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*).
For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much
as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags.
Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g.
FIF_ALLMULTI.

Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that
have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast
frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or
when the mc_count value is positive.

At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about
monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to
implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new
change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop()
ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any
add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after
any remove_interface().

The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid
to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING
is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed
and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced.
This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that
supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID
to all-ones.

Driver modifications by Johannes Berg (b43 & iwlwifi), Michael Wu
(rtl8187, adm8211, and p54), Larry Finger (b43legacy), and
Ivo van Doorn (rt2x00).
