The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered,
and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates
ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err()
parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware,
this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation.

The ath9k rate control algorithm has various architectural
issues that make it a poor fit in scenarios like congested
environments etc.
An example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927191
Change the default to minstrel which is more robust in such cases.
The ath9k RC code is left in the driver for now, maybe it can
be removed altogether later on.

Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode)
for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's
connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in
and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is
given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase
in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link
stability.

Waiting for all subframes of an existing aggregation session to drain
before allowing mac80211 to start a new one is fragile and deadlocks
caused by this behavior have been observed.
Since mac80211 has proper synchronization for aggregation session
start/stop handling, a better approach to session handling is to simply
allow mac80211 to start a new session at any time. This requires
changing the code to discard any packets outside of the BlockAck window
in the A-MPDU software retry code.
This patch implements the above and also simplifies the code.

Move the counter for non-AMPDU frames to mvm. It is needed
for the drain flow which happens once the ieee80211_sta has
been freed, so keeping it in iwl_mvm_sta which is embed into
ieee80211_sta is not a good idea.
Also, since its purpose it to remove the STA in the fw only
after all the frames for this station have exited the shared
Tx queues, we need to decrement it in the reclaim flow. This
flow can happen after ieee80211_sta has been removed, which
means that we have no iwl_mvm_sta there. So we can't know
what is the vif type. Hence, we know audit these frames for
all the vif types.
In order to avoid spawning sta_drained_wk all the time, we
now check that we are in a flow in which draining might
happen - only when mvmsta is NULL. This is better than
previous code that would spawn sta_drained_wk all the time
in AP mode.

This can be readily reproduced when putting the XO-4 in a loop where
it goes to sleep due to inactivity, but then wakes up due to an
incoming ping. The error is hit within an hour or two.
This issue happens when an interrupt comes in early while host sleep
is still activated. Driver handles this case by auto cancelling host
sleep. However is_suspended flag is still set which prevents any cmd
or data from being sent to firmware. Fix it by clearing is_suspended
flag in this path.

Jake reported that since commit 1672c0e319
"mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status", he is unable to
connect to his AP, which is configured to use passive channel.
After switch to passive channel 4965 firmware drops any TX packet until
it receives beacon. Before commit 1672c0e3 we waited on channel and
retransmit packet after 200ms, that makes we receive beacon on the
meantime and association process succeed. New mac80211 behaviour cause
that any ASSOC frame fail immediately on iwl4965 and we can not
associate.
This patch restore old mac80211 behaviour for iwl4965, by removing
IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS feature. This feature will be
added again to iwl4965 driver, when different, more complex
workaround for this firmware issue, will be added to the driver.
