The SSID programmed into the device is used by the ucode only
to reply to probe requests, a functionality we disable anyway
because it doesn't fit with the mac80211/hostapd programming

We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.
OK, becasue Dave S. Miller said, "every direct netdev->priv usage is a bug",
and I want to kill netdev->priv later, I decided to convert all the direct
reference of netdev->priv first.
Different to readonly reference of netdev->priv, in this driver, netdev->priv
was changed. I use netdev->ml_priv to replace netdev->priv.

ath5k_rx_status fields rs_antenna and rs_more are u8s, but we
were setting them with bitwise ANDs of 32-bit values.
As a consequence, jumbo frames would not be discarded as intended.
Then, because the hw rate value of such frames is zero, and, since
"ath5k: rates cleanup", we do not fall back to the basic rate, such
packets would trigger the following WARN_ON:

4. eliminates using of IWL_GET/SET_BITs for TFD handling
5. renames TFD structures to mach the HW spec
6. reduces iwl_tx_info size by reserving first TB to the host command

So after the previous changes we were still unhappy with how
convoluted the API is and decided to make things simpler for
everybody. This completely changes the rate control API, now
taking into account 802.11n with MCS rates and more control,
most drivers don't support that though.

We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.
OK, becasue Dave S. Miller said, "every direct netdev->priv usage is a bug",
and I want to kill netdev->priv later, I decided to convert all the direct
reference of netdev->priv first.
In this driver, I don't simply use netdev_priv() to replace netdev->priv.
The reason is:
Pointer netdev->priv was changed in this driver, but it shouldn't.
Because the memory was allocated when alloc_netdev() and netdev->priv
should always point to that memory.
So I use netdev->ml_priv to replace netdev->priv.
After replacing, both ai and ai->wifidev->ml_priv point to the same memory.

This change adds short slot handling for 8187B variant of rtl8187 chips.
Some things to note about changes done:
* Values used are chosen to met 802.11-2007 spec. This raised a question
about SIFS value used with 8187L: 0x22 (34) doesn't match any spec
value. For now just don't change 8187L, but is something to be
looked at.
* On 8187B, the location of EIFS register is at the same place as BRSR+1
of struct rtl818x_csr. Unfortunately there is no clean way to
accomodate 8187B differences currently, just use address of BRSR+1 and
comment about it. The same thing happens for Ack timeout register,
that is on CARRIER_SENSE_COUNTER location of 8187L. The eifs and ack
timeout values are in units of 4us. All these registers information
was gathered from references being the vendor gpl driver and 8180
datasheet, unfortunately there is no information about this on 8187B
datasheet. Also the ack timeout value was inspired by the same
calculation as done on rt2x00.

- add AP to the supported modes in ath5k_add_interface
- handle beacon change even for AP in ath5k_config_interface
- remove useless test for IBSS in ath5k_beacon_update
Note that it doesn't enable the AP mode for the driver. It must
be enabled by NL80211_IFTYPE_AP bit added to interface_modes.

The HT handling has the following deficiencies, which I've
(partially) fixed:
* it always uses the AP info even if there is no AP,
hence has no chance of working as an AP
* it pretends to be HW config, but really is per-BSS
* channel sanity checking is left to the drivers
* it generally lets the driver control too much
HT enabling is still wrong with this patch if you have more than
one virtual STA mode interface, but that never happens currently.
Once WDS, IBSS or AP/VLAN gets HT capabilities, it will also be
wrong, see the comment in ieee80211_enable_ht().
Additionally, this fixes a number of bugs:
* mac80211: ieee80211_set_disassoc doesn't notify the driver any
more since the refactoring
* iwl-agn-rs: always uses the HT capabilities from the wrong stuff
mac80211 gives it rather than the actual peer STA
* ath9k: a number of bugs resulting from the broken HT API
I'm not entirely happy with putting the HT capabilities into
struct ieee80211_sta as restricted to our own HT TX capabilities,
but I see no cleaner solution for now.

This enables Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) on ath9k.
ANI is as algorithm designed to minimize the detrimental
effects of time-varying interferences. This should
help with throughput in noisy environments. To use
ANI we re-enable the MIB interrupt. Since ANI works
on a timer and updates the noise floor we take
advantage of this and also report a non-static noise
floor now to mac80211.

There's one internal use in the PID algorithm left for mesh networking,
we'll have to figure out a way to clean that one up and decide how to
do the peer link evaluation, possibly independent of the rate control
algorithm or via new API.
Additionally, ath9k is left using the cross-inclusion hack for now, we

The SIOCSIWSCAN handler is passed data in an iw_point structure. Some
drivers erronously use an iw_param instead.
On 32 bit architectures the difference isn't noticed as the flags
parameter tends to be the only one used by scan handlers and is at the
same offset.
On 64 bit architectures the pointer in the iw_point structure means the
flag parameter is at different offsets in these structures.

Currently, virtual interface pointers passed to drivers might be
from monitor interfaces and as such completely uninitialised
because we do not tell the driver about monitor interfaces when
those are created. Instead of passing them, we should therefore
indicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by
passing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it.
As a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with
a NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally.
Also, when injecting frames we really don't want to pass NULL all
the time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have
a local interface for that address, we can to use that interface.
This also helps with processing the frame correctly for that
interface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It's not
entirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC
address isn't unique, but it's already a lot better than what we
do now.
Finally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don't
assign sequence numbers at all.

WPA requires that the PTK is installed immediately after the 4-way handshake
in order to properly decrypt the subsequent incoming EAPOL-GTK frame. If the
PTK is not enabled by the time the EAPOL-GTK frame arrives, the frame is
dropped and the supplicant does not receive the group key.
This will happen with fast Access Points that send the EAPOL-GTK frame before
the suplicant has successfully installed and enabled the PTK. To mitigate
this situation, this patch simplifies and accelerates the SIOCSIWENCODEEXT
execution.
