mac80211: Tear down BA session on BAR tx failure
As described at [1] some STAs (i.e. Intel 5100 Windows) can end up
correctly BlockAcking incoming frames without delivering them to user
space if a AMPDU subframe got lost and we don't flush the receipients
reorder buffer with a BlockAckReq. This in turn results in stuck
connections.
According to 802.11n-2009 it is not necessary to send a BAR to flush
the recepients RX reorder buffer but we still do that to be polite.
However, assume the following frame exchange:
AP -> STA, AMPDU (failed)
AP -> STA, BAR (failed)
The client in question then ends up in the same situation and won't
deliver frames to userspace anymore since we weren't able to flush
its reorder buffer.
This is not a hypothetical situation but I was able to observe this
exact behavior during a stress test between a rt2800pci AP and a Intel
5100 Windows client.
In order to work around this issue just tear down the BA session as
soon as a BAR failed to be TX'ed.

ath9k: remove eeprom txgain override for minor version < 19
ath9k_hw_4k_get_eeprom() overrides the eeprom value for txgain if the
minor version is not 19 or above with a value of 0.
ar9002_hw_init_mode_gain_regs() relies on this information to
determine whether this is a high power wifi card or not. The override
caused the driver to always use the 'normal' power tables even for
high power devices if their minor version was not high enough. Thus
leading to reduced power output.

AR9280 setup code which requires the EEPROM version check.

rt2x00: Fix PCI interrupt processing race on SMP systems
When toggle_irq is called for PCI devices to disable device interrupts
it used tasklet_disable to wait for a possibly running tasklet to finish.
However, on SMP systems the tasklet might still be scheduled on another CPU.
Instead, use tasklet_kill to ensure that all scheduled tasklets are finished
before returning from toggle_irq.
Furthermore, it was possible that a tasklet reenabled its interrupt even
though interrupts have been disabled already. Fix this by checking the
DEVICE_STATE_ENABLED_RADIO flag before reenabling single interrupts
during tasklet processing.
While at it also enable/kill the TBTT and PRETBTT tasklets in the
