ath9k_hw: fix power for the HT40 duplicate frames
With AR9003 at about ~ 10 feet from an AP that uses RTS / CTS you
will be able to associate but not not get data through given that
the power for the rates used was set too low. This increases the
power and permits data connectivity at longer distances from
access points when connected with HT40. Without this you will not
get any data through when associated to APs configured in HT40
at about more than 10 feet away.

rt2x00: Make rt2x00_queue_entry_for_each more flexible
commit:
10e11568ca8b8a15f7478f6a4ceebabcbdba1018
introduced a severe regression on the throughput
for USB hardware. It turns out that the exiting of
the rt2x00queue_for_each_entry() was done too early.
The exact cause for this regression is unknown,

ath9k_hw: do noise floor calibration only on required chains
At present the noise floor calibration is processed in supported

Unnccesarily doing nfcal in all supported chains leads to
invalid nf readings on extn chains and these invalid values
got updated into history buffer. While loading those values
from history buffer is moving the chip to deaf state.
This issue was observed in AR9002/AR9003 chips while doing

nl80211: Fix set_key regression with some drivers
Commit
dbd2fd656f2060abfd3a16257f8b51ec60f6d2ed added a mechanism for
user space to indicate whether a default key is being configured for
only unicast or only multicast frames instead of all frames. This
commit added a driver capability flag for indicating whether separate
default keys are supported and validation of the set_key command based
on that capability.
However, this single capability flag is not enough to cover possible
difference based on mode (AP/IBSS/STA) and the way this change was
introduced resulted in a regression with drivers that do not indicate
the new capability (i.e.., more or less any non-mac80211 driver using
cfg80211) when using a recent wpa_supplicant snapshot.
Fix the regression by removing the new check which is not strictly
speaking needed. The new separate default key functionality is needed
only for RSN IBSS which has a separate capability indication.

libertas: remove tx_timeout handler
As described at http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=
130428493104730&w=2
libertas frequently generates spurious tx timeouts, because the tx
queue is brought down for extended periods during scanning. The net
layer takes a look and incorrectly assumes the queue has been down for
several seconds, and generates a tx_timeout.
One way to fix this is to bump the trans_start counter while scanning
so that the network layer knows that the device is still alive, but
I think the tx_timeout handler is implemented wrongly here and not of
any real use, so I vote to remove it.
As explained at http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=
130430311115755&w=2
the watchdog is primarily meant to deal with lockup on the hardware TX
path (detected by the tx queue being stopped for an extended period of
time), but this is unlikely to happen with libertas. In this case, the tx
queue is stopped only while waiting for lbs_thread to send the queued frame
to the driver, and lbs_thread wakes up the queue immediately after, even
if the frame could not be sent correctly.
So, the only hardware-related possibility that this catches is if
hw_host_to_card hangs - this is something I have never seen. And if it
were to happen, nothing done by lbs_tx_timeout would actually wake up
lbs_thread any quicker than otherwise.
Removing this oddly-behaving spuriously-firing tx_timeout handler should
fix an occasional kernel crash during resume

If a device error happens while the uCode is
being loaded or initialised, we will attempt
to restart the device (which will likely fail
again, but that's not the issue here). During
this new restart, we turn off the device, but
as the uCode failed to initialise it already
is turned off. As a consequence, grabbing NIC
access will fail and cause excessive messages
and hangs.
To fix this issue, introduce a new status bit
and only attempt to reprogram the device when
it isn't already disabled.

mwl8k: Reducing extra_tx_headroom for tx optimization in AP mode
The tx_headroom required for mwl8k driver is 32 bytes and it
can use the space for 802.11 header received from mac80211.
mwl8k considers the smallest 802.11 frame (CTS2self of 10
bytes) that can be received from mac80211 to compute the
extra_tx_headroom as 22 (32 - 10) bytes.
When the wireless interface is part of bridge, this
extra_tx_headroom requirement results in a memcpy in
mac80211 (in function pskb_expand_head) for all the data
frames needing L2 forwarding/bridging, when NET_SKB_PAD is
defined as 32. This patch reduces the extra_tx_headroom by
8 bytes so that memcpy of data frames in mac80211 is
avoided in this case.
The resize will be required in driver for frames with 802.11
header size of less than 18 bytes.

Check status bits with mutex taken, because when we wait for mutex

these commands when we are currently reset firmware, what could

iwlegacy: fix enqueue hcmd race conditions
We mark command as huge by using meta->flags from other (non huge) command,
but flags can be possibly overridden, when non huge command is enqueued,
what can lead to:
WARNING: at lib/dma-debug.c:696 dma_debug_device_change+0x1a3/0x1f0()
DMA-API: device driver has pending DMA allocations while released from device [count=1]
To fix introduce additional CMD_MAPPED to mark command as mapped and
serialize iwl_enqueue_hcmd() with iwl_tx_cmd_complete() using
hcmd_lock. Serialization will also fix possible race conditions,
because q->read_ptr, q->write_ptr are modified/used in parallel.
Do not change callback, I did (and fixed) that mistake in iwlagn.

iwlwifi: do not set tx power when channel is changing
we set device tx power during initialization to priv->tx_power_next,
which itself is initialized to minimum power. That changed
default behaviour of driver. Previously we initialized device to
transmit at maximum available power by default. Patch change again
to previous behaviour and cleanup tx power initialization.
Fortunately this is not critical fix, as mac80211 layer setup
tx power lately to 14dB, hence device does not operate at minimal
transmit power all the time.
