On older chips, the INI value differ in similar ways as cycpwr_thr1, so
convert it to absolute values as well.
Since the ANI algorithm is different here compared to the old
implementation (fewer steps, controlled at a different point in time),
it makes sense to use values similar to what would be applied for newer
chips, just without relying on INI defaults.

The table was copied from the ANI implementation of AR9300. It assumes
that the INI values contain a baseline value that is usable as reference
from which to increase/decrease based on the noise immunity value.
On older chips, the differences are bigger and especially AR5008/AR9001
are configured to much more sensitive values than what is useful.
Improve ANI behavior by reverting to the absolute values used in the
previous implementation (expressed as a simple formula instead of the
old table).

Fast antenna diversity is required only for single chain
chips and the diversity initialization is done in the
per-family board setup routines. Enabling of diversity
should be done based on the calibrated EEPROM/OTP data,
doing it for all chips is incorrect.
Remove the code that sets the fast_div bit for all cards, since
the documentation for the AR_PHY_CCK_DETECT register says:

All QCA chips have the ability to parse the CF Parameter Set
IE in beacons. If the IE is malformed in the beacons from some
APs [1], the HW locks up. In AP mode, a beacon stuck would happen
and in client mode, a disconnection usually is the result.
To fix this issue, set the AR_PCU_MISC_MODE2_CFP_IGNORE to ignore
the CFP IE in beacons - this is applicable for all chips. For
AP mode, if this issue happens, the NAV is also corrupted and has
to be reset - this will be done in a subsequent patch.

In order to unifying regulatory limit handling
commit ca2c68cc7b
(ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling) introduced
a new helper function 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower',
and the direct calls of 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'
has been replaced by a call of the helper function.
This caused a change in the behaviour of the
'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' function. The purpose
of that function is to calculate and store the
rate txpower table and the regulatory limit without
touching the hardware registers. Before the commit,
the 'test' parameter of the function was passed to
the 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'. Now the calling of
the 'set_txpower' function happens indirectly through
'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', so the 'test' argument of
the 'set_txpower' is always 'false'.
This patch restores the original behaviour of
'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' by adding a new
argument to 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower.'

This patch improves ANI operations by switching among the immunity
levels based on PHY errors and beacon rssi which will adjust receiver
desensitizing parameters. The changes are
* Configure the Weak Signal Detection based on current immunity value.
* At highest OFDM immunity level poor performance was observed with
strong interference. By tuning the FIR step and spur immunity levels
and not changing any weak signal detection thresholds at any level
helped to improve the performance.
* ANI took long time to recover back to lower immunity levels on heavy
data load. As the listen time got reset to zero before reaching to
the 5x of aniperiod, the immunity level is not lowering back even
without any interference. This patch fix that.

The code for handling various restrictions concerning regulatory limits,

This patch partially cleans up the mess by unifying regulatory limit

It also removes unused transmit power scaling arrays from the EEPROM code,
which belonged to an unimplemented API that isn't supposed to be in

Fine-tuning register write operation and avoid unnecessay
delays for ath9k_htc driver, saves hw reset time which
improves scanning time and also solves one of the following
scenario.
Sometimes the ACK is sent by STA for assoc response is not
seen at AP side. So the AP continues to send retry assoc
responses. At the STA side, since the assoc response was
already forwarded to mac80211, it proceeded to channel change
which in turns does chip reset.
In most of the cases the chip reset was completed before
max retries are reached at AP side. Hence STA can able to ACK
the retried frames again. But in clear environment these retries
are completed within shortspan of time.
Since ath9k_htc consumes more time for hw reset, this latency
is causing dissociation by AP due to max reties are reached.
This issue was originally reported with Cisco Aironet 1250 AP
in HT40 mode in noise free environment.
