18c8adeb02 b43: Rewrite TX power adjustment
This patch rewrites the TX power recalculation algorithms to scale better
with changed enviromnent. If there's low
TX traffic, the power will be checked against the desired values
every 60 seconds.
If there is high TX traffic, the check is redone every 2 seconds. This improves
the reaction times a lot and confuses the rate control less.
It will also reduce the time it initially takes to tune to a new TX power
value. With the old algorithm it could take about 30 to 45 seconds to settle to
a new power value. This will happen in about two to four seconds now.

ef1a628d83 b43: Implement dynamic PHY API
This patch implements a dynamic "ops" based PHY API.
This is needed in order to conveniently support future PHY types
to avoid the "switch"-hell.

This patch does not change any functionality. It just moves lots
of code from one place to another and adjusts it for the changed
data structures.

6c6aa3c004 rt2x00: Add Signal type flag
Instead of using the PLCP flag to indicate if the

a new flag to mark the bitrate type explicitely.
This is usefull when new types are added later for

2575c11d6e rt2x00: Only configure hardware when radio is enabled
Some hardware configuration registers such as antenna and channel configuration
can only be written when the radio is enabled. Previously, we didn't consider
this, so some configuration items could be set inconsistently after reenabling
the radio. This patch changes the config() handler to only reprogram the
hardware when the radio is enabled. Configuration changes that are made while
the radio is off are postponed until the radio is switched back on. We also
leave the radio turned off during initialization and only enable it when
requested by mac80211. This allows us to get rid of the DIRTY_CONFIG flag,
because the device is now guaranteed to be completely initialized when brought
up by mac80211.

0262ab0df6 rt2x00: Fix race conditions in flag handling
Some of the flags should be accessed atomically to
prevent race conditions. The flags that are most important
are those that can change often and indicate the actual
state of the device, queue or queue entry.

The big flag rename was done to move all state flags to
the same naming type as the other rt2x00dev flags and
made sure all places where the flags were used were changed. ;)

Thanks to Stephen for most of the queue flags updates,
which fixes some of the most obvious consequences of the
race conditions. Among those the notorious:

rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.
rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.
rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.

154e3af17f p54: fix rssi auto calibration
Ever wondered why the signal was so bad with p54 compared to madwifi, or intel?

Well, if you have revision 1 rssi calibration curve points in your EEPROM, then wonder no more.
The firmware wants a extra 1 byte padding for every curve point. But someone forgot to put
them into the EEPROM's data structure...

So now, big question: what happens when we blindly "memcpy" these data points?
