ath5k: Keep last descriptor in queue
If we return a TX descriptor to the pool of available descriptors, while a
queues TXDP still points to it we could potentially run into all sorts of
troube.
It has been suggested that there is hardware which can set the descriptors
done bit before it reads ds_link and moves on to the next descriptor. While the
documentation says this is not true for newer chipsets (the descriptor contents
are copied to some internal memory), we don't know about older hardware.
To be safe, we always keep the last descriptor in the queue, and avoid dangling
TXDP pointers. Unfortunately this does not fully resolve the problem - queues
still get stuck!

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.

When we return to the home channel we were never reseting our beacon
timers, this was casued by the fact that the scanning flag was still
on even after we returned to our home channel. There are also other
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.
This bug is a regression introduced on 2.6.36. The order of the
changes are as follows:
So 0d6bb758 would have worked if 4f46d1c3 was not committed but
it was so this means 0d6bb758 was broken since it assumed that
when we were in the channel change routine the scan flag would
be lifted. As it turns out the scan flag will be set when we
are already on the home channel.
These issues will need to be considered for our solution on
reshifting the scan complete callback location on mac80211 on
current development kernel work.

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
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.

iwlwifi: assure we complete scan in scan_abort and scan_check works
Assure we complete scan in mac80211 when we abort scanning (scan_abort
work) or scan timeout occurs (scan_check work). Currently
iwl_scan_cancel_timeout() procedure force scan finish in mac80211
at the end of timeout loop, so we can use it in proper work functions.

If we do not get notification from hardware about scan complete, after
timeout do mac80211 scan completion anyway. This assure we end scan
in case of firmware hung.

Assure (partially) we call ieee80211_scan_completed() only once when
scan was requested from mac80211.
Code path that first clear STATUS_SCANNING bit is responsible to call
ieee80211_scan_completed(). Before the call, we check if mac80211
really request the scan.
Still persist some cases when we behave wrong, that will be addressed
in the next patches.

Since on timeout version of iwl_scan_cancel procedure we can sleep,
do not have to schedule abort_scan work to begin and perform scanning,
can do this directly. Also now, as we do not queue abort_scan from
restart work anymore, we can queue abort_scan to priv->workqueue.
Don't drop mutex when waiting for scan complete. Use STATUS_HW_SCAN bit
to check if scanning is currently pending, because STATUS_SCANNING will
be cleared only with priv->mutex taken.

When we are not able to send abort command to firmware, notify mac80211
that we complete scan, as we will newer do it lately. Check for all
possible errors that low level sending command procedure does not check,
to assure we catch all failures cases.

Always cancel scan when stooping device and scan is currently pending,
we should newer have scan running after down device.
To assure we start scan cancel from restart work we have to schedule

iwlwifi: move scan completed flags handling
Move the scan completed flags handling so that we
can notify mac80211 about aborted scans with the
correct status. Also queue the scan_completed work

in which case that's fine.)

rt2x00: Check for specific changed flags when updating the erp config
Previously rt2x00 was always updating all erp related config variables
even though mac80211 might only have changed one. Hence, pass the
changed flags to the config_erp driver callback so that the driver
can limit the changes to the correct values.
This fixes an issue in AP mode where the beacon interval is not
initialized (and thus zero) but still sent to the hardware causing an
interrupt storm on rt2800pci hanging the system.

rt2x00: Antenna diversity does not work in 2.6.35
The test if antenna diversity is at all enabled uses a local variable
'flags' to prepare the test condition, but uses 'ant->flags' when the test
is evaluated. The effect is that the diversity evaluation will never start.
I can see two solutions, use the 'flag' in the test condition or revert the
local flag change. My attached patch took alternative two.
Then the evaluation start but it will still not switch antenna. The problem
is a code section in rt2x00lib_config_antenna (). The effect of that code
section is that any change the diversity function perform will be
effectively shorten and no antenna selection command issued. The attached
patch will filter out any ANTENNA_SW_DIVERSITY setting but forward all
other
