As Johannes Berg indicated, the NET_IP_ALIGN doesn't
need to be used for ieee80211 frames. This means we
can simplify the alignment calculation to just
use the result of the header size modulus 4 as frame
alignment.
Furthermore we shouldn't use NET_IP_ALIGN in rt2x00usb
because it could be 0 on some architectures and we absolutely
need to have 2 bytes reserved for possible aligning.

Sometimes it happens in the tx path that an entry given to the hardware isn't
reported in the txdone handler. This ultimately led to the dreaded "non-free
entry in the non-full queue" message and the stopping of the tx queue. Work
around this issue by allowing the driver to also clear out previos entries in
the txdone handler.

This patch fixes the parsing of the RX data header channel field.
The current code parses the header incorrectly and passes a wrong

where they live won't get executed anyway. They will be fixed later.

This fixes Bug #9414
Since addition of the rfkill callback, the LED associated with the off
switch on the radio has not worked for several reasons:
(1) Essential data in the rfkill structure were missing.
(2) The rfkill structure was initialized after the LED initialization.
(3) There was a minor memory leak if the radio LED structure was inited.
Once the above problems were fixed, additional difficulties were noted:
(4) The radio LED was in the wrong state at startup.
(5) The radio switch had to be manipulated twice for each state change.
(6) A circular mutex locking situation existed.
(7) If rfkill-input is built as a module, it is not automatically loaded.
This patch fixes all of the above.

Shaddy Baddah found an alignment problem with zd1211rw driver at
2007-11-19. This patch fixes it, it is based on the patch proposed by
Herbert Xu. The alignment 4 has been the agreed value on the
linux-wireless mailing list.
Notify that the problem does only affect the old zd1211rw softmac
driver and not the zd1211rw-mac80211 driver. Daniel Drake has
already provided a patch for the replacement of the softmac
driver, which this patch will break.

I'm not sure why it was doing this, and I'm not sure I _want_ to know

The validation of the chipset revision was broken
since for rt2500usb and rt73usb different registers
should be read. When rt2500usb was loaded for a rt73
device it would false think the chipset was correct
because the wrong register was read and validated.
This has been fixed by expanding the check to also
see if the first 4 bits of the revision is not-0
(When reading the wrong register offset the returned
value is usually 0 which can be interpreted as invalid)
