mac80211: send last 3/5 probe requests as unicast
Some buggy APs do not respond to unicast probe requests
or send unicast probe requests very delayed so in the
worst case we should try to send broadcast probe requests,
otherwise we can get disconnected from these APs.
Even if drivers do not have filters to disregard probe
responses from foreign APs mac80211 will only process
probe responses from our associated AP for re-arming
connection monitoring.
We need to do this since the beacon monitor does not
push back the connection monitor by design so even if we
are getting beacons from these type of APs our connection
monitor currently relies heavily on the way the probe
requests are received on the AP. An example of an AP
affected by this is the Nexus One, but this has also been
observed with random APs.
We can probably optimize this later by using null funcs
instead of probe requests.

ath9k: fix enabling ANI / tx monitor after bg scan
ath9k's entire logic with SC_OP_SCANNING is incorrect due to the
way mac80211 currently implements the scan complete callback and
we handle it in ath9k. This patch removes the flag completely in
preference for the SC_OP_OFFCHANNEL which is really what we wanted.
The scanning flag was used to ensure we reset ANI to the old values
when we go back to the home channel, but if we are offchannel we
use some defaults. The flag was also used to re-enable the TX monitor.
Without this patch we simply never re-enabled ANI and the TX monitor
after going offchannel. This means that after one background
scan we are prone to noise issues and if we had a TX hang we would
not recover. To get this to work properly we must enable ANI after
we have configured the beacon timers, otherwise hardware acts really
oddly.
This patch has stable fixes which apply down to [2.6.36+], there
*may* be a to fix this on older kernels but requires a bit of
work since this patch relies on the new mac80211 flag
IEEE80211_CONF_OFFCHANNEL which was introduced as of 2.6.36.

reasons why we would get a reset and if we are not off channel
we always need to resynch our beacon timers, because a reset will
clear them.

5ee08656 would have worked if

it was so this means

be lifted. As it turns out the scan flag will be set when we
are already on the home channel.

ath9k: fix power save race conditions
ath9k has a race on putting the chip into network sleep and
having registers read from hardware. The race occurs because
although ath9k_ps_restore() locks its own callers it makes use
of some variables which get altered in the driver at different
code paths. The variables are the ps_enabled and ps_flags.
This is easily reprodicible in large network environments when
roaming with the wpa_supplicant simple bgscan. You'd get some
0xdeadbeef read out on certain registers such as:
ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x806c: 0xdeadbeef & 0x01f00000 != 0x00000000
ath: RX failed to go idle in 10 ms RXSM=0xdeadbeef
ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x7000: 0xdeadbeef & 0x00000003 != 0x00000000
ath: Chip reset failed
The fix is to protect the ath9k_config(hw, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_PS)
calls with a spin_lock_irqsave() which will disable contendors for
these variables from interrupt context, timers, re-entry from mac80211
on the same callback, and most importantly from ath9k_ps_restore()
which is the only call which will put the device into network sleep.

ath5k: Use common ath key management functions
Use common ath key management functions in ath5k. This fixes problems with HW
encryption in AP mode, which was broken in the ath5k implementation.
Before (with the ath5k implementation) only one client could connect to the AP
using HW encryption and WPA. When a second client connected, the first client
was not able to send/receive any more packets. Because of the problems with HW
encryption, software encryption was always used in AP mode, which resulted in a
high CPU load (and/or low thruput) on embedded devices. Instead of trying to
fix the implementation in ath5k it makes more sense to share the code with
ath9k.
This also enables HW encryption for AP mode again.

Copied the key cache management functions from ath9k (common.c and hw.c) to
ath/key.c so we can use them from ath5k, later.
Minor changes have been made:
- renamed ath9k_* to ath_*
- replaced ah->caps.keycache_size with common->keymax
- removed ATH9K_IS_MIC_ENABLED since it is always true.
- the AR_PCU_MIC_NEW_LOC_ENA flag is replaced with (splitmic == 0).

ath9k: fix BSSID mask calculation
At the time the .add_interface driver op is called, the interface has not
been marked as running yet, so ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces will
not pass it to the iterator function.
Because of this, the calculated BSSID mask is wrong, which breaks multi-BSS
operation.
Additionally, the current way of comparing all addresses against each other
is pointless, as the hardware only uses the hardware MAC address and the BSSID
mask for matching the destination address, so all the address array
reallocation is completely unnecessary.
This patch simplifies the logic by setting the initial mask bytes to 0xff
and removing all bits in the iterator call that don't match the hardware MAC
address. It also calls the iterator for the vif that was passed to
add_interface()

iwlwifi: fix and describe iwl_adjust_beacon_interval
The iwl_adjust_beacon_interval function is a bit
of black magic, so add comments to it describing
what it does. Also, in the case when there's no
beacon interval set, program the default into
the device (instead of adjusting, which results
in the max) since using the max in that case
interacts badly with dual-mode/PAN parameters.
Also update the PAN parameters accordingly and
use the same constant as here.

iwlwifi: fix default LQ table in 5.2 band
The default LQ is filled decreasingly using

Since the starting rate is already the lowest one for

the starting rate: 1M and 6M for 5.2GHZ and 2.4GH respectively.
The bug is that for for A or G-only it decreases to
CCK rates which are not supported.
iwl_get_prev_ieee_rate function is just not band aware.
This affects broadcast station which lq table

G-only scenario is not treated by this patch
