This patch squashes a few old bugs, which have been around since
the initial version of p54usb in one form or another.
we never freed a orphaned frame, when were denied the resources,
which are necessary to pass the data into the usb subsystem.
As a result we could end up with a full queue that wasn't emptied,
until the device was brought down.

We've designed the /dev/rfkill API in a way that we
can increase the event struct by adding members at
the end, should it become necessary. To validate the
events, userspace and the kernel need to have the
proper event size to check for -- when reading from
the other end they need to verify that it's at least
version 1 of the event API, with the current struct
size, so define a constant for that and make the
code a little more 'future proof'.
Not that I expect that we'll have to change the event
size any time soon, but it's better to write the code
in a way that lends itself to extending.
Due to the current size of the event struct, the code
is currently equivalent, but should the event struct
ever need to be increased the new code might not need
changing.

"Ath5k: unify resets"
introduced a regression into 2.6.28 where the PCU registers are never

We subsequently program a lot of these registers but several may start

Using the enable_beacon flag allows some simplifications and fixes
some corner cases in beacon handling. This change adds a state
variable for beaconing in ath5k_beacon_config and handles both
enabling and disabling, thus eliminating the need for
ath5k_beacon_disable. We also now configure the beacon when any
of the beacon parameters change, so ath5k_beacon_reconfig is no
longer needed (its mmiowb gets moved to ath5k_beacon_config).
Finally, by locking around the whole config function, we don't
need to worry about clearing the interrupt mask register before
installing the new mask.
The upshot is this correctly disables beaconing when the interfaces
are taken down, it fixes a potential restarting of beaconing
when ath5k_reset() is called, and ensures that updates to the
beacon interval take effect immediately.

mac80211's software scan implementation uses a passive dwell time of
(HZ / 5) which means we stay 200ms on each passive channel. Compared
to iwlwifi's hw scan and the old ipw* drivers which use values around
120ms this is quite long.
Reducing the passive dwell time from 200ms to 125ms should save us
something around a second on cards capable of 11a and we should still be
able to catch beacons from most access points (assuming a ~100ms beacon
interval).

We were not differentiating quality between legacy and HT
configurations. We change this to consider the differences.
New theory for reporting quality:
At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 7 reliably.
At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 15 reliably.
At a hardware RSSI of 35 you should be able use 54 Mbps reliably.
MCS 7 is the highets MCS index usable by a 1-stream device.
MCS 15 is the highest MCS index usable by a 2-stream device.
All ath9k devices are either 1-stream or 2-stream.
How many bars you see is derived from the qual reporting.
A more elaborate scheme can be used here but it requires tables
of SNR/throughput for each possible mode used. For the MCS table
you can refer to the wireless wiki:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/ieee80211/802.11n

The SDIO driver sets the surpriseremoved flag before calling
lbs_remove_card. With IEEE PS enabled, lbs_remove_card must issue a
command to exit IEEE PS mode, however with that flag set the command
path is blocked and the card is never taken out of IEEE PS mode. This
step is required to ensure that the driver can be reloaded. This patch
moves the setting of surpriseremoved after lbs_remove_card is called.
Tested with V9 firmware by ensuring that IEEE PS is disabled when the
driver is removed. Reloading the driver is not fully tested due to a
separate issue with module reload in the SDIO driver, however this
patch at least leaves the card in a better state when we bring the
driver down.

The SPI driver does a couple of card cleanup steps in the wrong order on
module removal. If IEEE PS is enabled, this results in the card being
left in IEEE PS mode and subsequent failures to reload the module. The
problem is that the surpriseremoved flag is set before calling
lbs_remove_card, but that function needs to issue a command to exit IEEE
PS mode (the flag blocks the command path). In addition, lbs_stop_card
should be called first because it clears out any pending commands.
Tested on a GSPI device with V9 firmware by confirming that we can
reload the module with or without IEEE PS enabled.
Also fix a warning from the wrong uint format in a printk.

Libertas currently maintains a copy of the WPA unicast and group keys
when using WPA or WPA2. This copy is checked when deciding whether or
not to return to sleep in IEEE PS mode but the actual copying back to
priv was omitted, which breaks IEEE PS mode with WPA/WPA2 when one
issues commands that require temporarily keeping the device awake.
This patch introduces the omitted copy-back of the keys so that IEEE PS
functions correctly in WPA/WPA2 mode. Thanks to Dan Williams for
