2ae2332ed1 wireless.h: Use SIOCIWFIRST not SIOCSIWCOMMIT for range check
These two #defines use the same value, but
SIOCIWFIRST makes more sense in this use.

1b72aecd95 wl1271: Fix MAC address handling
This patch fixes MAC address handling. To achieve this, firmware booting had
to be delayed from the previous op_start to op_add_interface, which is the point
when the driver gets to know the configured MAC address. As the wl1271 only

6398dc039d ath9k_hw: fix noisefloor history buffer usage on AR9271
Noisefloor calibration involves querying hardware for samples
and storing this information on a history buffer in hardware for
actual noisefloor calibration processing in hardware. The history
buffer supports collecting information for all Atheros hardware,
one history buffer slot for each chain on each channel used for
MIMO operation. For current hardware this means one history
buffer slot for each chain on both the control (or primary) channel
and the extension (or secondary) channel. We know which noisefloor
registers to poke for collecting noisefloor data through the
chainmask.

For AR9285 and AR9271 devices, both 1x1, the chaimmask is defined as
0x9 = 0b0001001. The first four bits represent each chain out of
a maximum of 4 chains [0-3] on the primary channel. The last four
bits represent each chain on the extension channel. A chainmask
of 0x9 therefore indicates chain 1 is active on both the primary
and the extension channel.

AR9271 only requires collecting and storing noisefloor history buffer
data for the first chain on both the control and extension channel
(nfarray[0] and nfarray[3]) so fix the code and avoid which reads
and writes to the history buffer for the other chains.

Since the noisefloor varies depending on the number of chains your
device supports also initialize the noisefloor history buffer with
reasonable values seen on 1x1 devices such as AR9285.

fa8f130c50 iwlwifi: code cleanup for connectivity recovery
Split the connectivity check and recovery routine into separated
functions based on the types
   1. iwl_good_ack_health() - check for ack count
   2. iwl_good_plcp_health() - check for plcp error

Based on the type of errors being detected, different recovery methods
will be used to bring the system back to normal operational state.

Because different NIC has different HW and uCode, the behavior is also
different; these functions thus now form part of the ops infrastructure,
so we can have more control on how to monitor and recover from error condition
case per device.

Monitors the tx statistics to detect the drop in throughput.
When the throughput drops, the ratio of the actual_ack_count and the
expected_ack_count also drops.  At the same time, the aggregated
ba_timeout (the number of ba timeout retries) also rises.  If the
actual_ack_count/expected_ack_count ratio is 0 and the number of ba
timeout retries rises to BA_TIMEOUT_MAX, no tx packets can be delivered.

b74e31a9bc iwlwifi: Recover TX flow stall due to stuck queue
Monitors the internal TX queues periodically.  When a queue is stuck
for some unknown conditions causing the throughput to drop and the
transfer is stop, the driver will force firmware reload and bring the
system back to normal operational state.

The iwlwifi devices behave differently in this regard so this feature is
made part of the ops infrastructure so we can have more control on how to
monitor and recover from tx queue stall case per device.

fe6b23dd36 iwlwifi: implement new mac80211 station add/remove calls
mac80211 recently implemented two new callbacks that are used to request
station add/remove from the driver. The benefot from these new callbacks
are that they enable the driver to sleep while performing this work.

This is a big patch since a few things need to be coordinated in this move.
First we need to decouple station management from rate scaling, which
caused a lot of code to be moved and/or deleted. Next we needed to tie in
with mac80211's station management callback and let it direct our station
management as well as trigger the rate scaling initialization.

7e2461910e iwlwifi: only add broadcast station once
Currently the broadcast station is added after every RXON command. Change
this to only add the broadcast station when interface is added by mac80211.
With this we need some extra work to ensure broadcast station is always
present since station table is cleared when RXON without ASSOC bit set is
sent. To deal with this we re-add all driver known stations to uCode after
such an RXON command is sent.

We also do some cleanup and remove the various calls to clear the station
table. We now only clear the station table in two scenarios:
- only clear uCode portion of station table when RXON command without ASSOC
bit is sent
- clear uCode and driver portion when interface goes down or is removed.

We need to do this clearing when interface goes down to deal with the
device restart/reconfigure routines which do not remove the interface, but
do add the interface during reconfiguration.

Previously the keys were also cleared when station table in driver is
cleared, this is not done anymore since mac80211 will take care that keys
are set and cleared correctly.

There is a known issue with this change. Associating with different AP
without bringing interface down fails with a firmware error. This is
because of the lack of full station notification support and the later
patches in this series that complete the station notification support will
fix this.

This patch renames the (never officially released) sysfs-knobs

It also gets rid of not needed locks around u32-read-access.

09a08cff3d mac80211: (really) fix rates setup on IBSS merge
when an IBSS merge happened, the supported rates for the newly added station
were left empty, causing the rate control module to be initialized with only
the basic rates.

the section of the ibss code which deals with updating supported rates for
an already existing station failed to inform the rate control module about the
new rates. as both minstrel and pid don't have an update function i just use
the init function.

also remove unnecessary (unsigned long long) casts and edit debug message.

bf18723d50 rt2x00: Fix TX status reporting for rt2800pci.
After testing, we found that TX_STA_FIFO_MCS is the last MCS value
tried. If the transmission failed, 8 frames have been transmitted. If the
transmission succeed, we can easily compute the number of retry.  This patch fix
the way status is reported to mac80211 rate control. It has 2 bugs :

1. mcs can contain the short preamble flag and it will lead to wrong
computations.

2. minstrel nearly always say that 54 Mbits is the best rate, even if we are
very far from the AP
