We are not correctly listening to the regulatory max bandwidth
settings. To actually make use of it we need to redesign things
a bit. This patch does the work for that. We do this to so we
can obey to regulatory rules accordingly for use of HT40.
We end up dealing with HT40 by having two passes for each channel.
The first check will see if a 20 MHz channel fits into the channel's
center freq on a given frequency range. We check for a 20 MHz
banwidth channel as that is the maximum an individual channel
will use, at least for now. The first pass will go ahead and
check if the regulatory rule for that given center of frequency
allows 40 MHz bandwidths and we use this to determine whether
or not the channel supports HT40 or not. So to support HT40 you'll
need at a regulatory rule that allows you to use 40 MHz channels
but you're channel must also be enabled and support 20 MHz by itself.
The second pass is done after we do the regulatory checks over
an device's supported channel list. On each channel we'll check
if the control channel and the extension both:
o exist
o are enabled
o regulatory allows 40 MHz bandwidth on its frequency range
This work allows allows us to idependently check for HT40- and
HT40+.

This removes all the dead code that tries to adjust the power
saving level based on the system AC state (inacceptable policy
in the kernel) or based on overtemp conditions (unused).
Also, pass _all_ policy wrt. enabling PS to mac80211, since
we do not use the power_disabled internally I now use that to
mirror the mac80211 CONF_PS setting. When mac80211 turns off
CONF_PS we follow suit. This means that the user power level
(which can currently only be set from sysfs) is not touched
for mac80211 powersave changes.
This means no "association status" checks are necessary since
mac80211 will not allow power save to be enabled when not
associated.

iwlwifi internally needs to keep track of whether PS
is enabled in the firmware or not. To do this, it keeps
a bit in the status flags, called STATUS_POWER_PMI.
The code to set this bit looks as follows:
static int iwl_set_power(struct iwl_priv *priv, void *cmd)
{
return iwl_send_cmd_pdu_async(priv, POWER_TABLE_CMD,
sizeof(struct iwl_powertable_cmd),
cmd, NULL);
}
int iwl_power_update_mode(...)
{
[...]
if (final_mode != IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)
set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
iwl_update_power_cmd(priv, &cmd, final_mode);
cmd.keep_alive_beacons = 0;
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_INDEX_5)
cmd.flags |= IWL_POWER_FAST_PD;
ret = iwl_set_power(priv, &cmd);
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)
clear_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
else
set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
if (priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags && update_chains)
priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags(priv);
[...]
}
Now, this bit really needs to track what the _firmware_
thinks, not what the driver thinks. Therefore, there is
a race condition here -- the driver sets the bit before
it knows that the async command sent to the card in the
iwl_set_power function has been processed. As a result,
the call to update_chain_flags() may think that the card
has been woken up (PMI bit cleared) while in reality it
hasn't processed the async POWER_TABLE_CMD yet.
This leads to bugs -- any commands the update_chain_flags
function sends can get stuck and subsequent commands also
fail.
The fix is almost trivial: since there's no reason to send
an async command here (in fact, there almost never should
be since many mac80211 callbacks can sleep) just make the
function wait for the card to process the command and then
return and clear the PMI bit.

Some issues in PS prevent us from supporting it reliably.
When 4965 goes to sleep it stores some data in host DRAM, reads it back
when device wakes up. In 4965 there is a problem that the data is not
correct when ucode starts using it upon wakeup.
For all iwlagn devices there is a problem where command is sent when PS is
enabled. At the moment there is a locking problem with priv->lock not being
held and thus not requesting nic access correctly.

After some debuging we were hitting the following bugs so far...
* Due to huge channel list hostapd couldn't get infos from the driver
and couldn't set the channel. If we manualy set the channel after
hostapd starts (by setting channel to 0 -auto), beacons are sent
but they wont show up on scan because they are malformed (they have
channel = 0 because hostapd doesn't update the channel info -this is
probably a hostapd bug so i'm CCing Jouni) and they get dropped. Bob
fixed this by only allowing standard channels to be registered so
now hostapd works as expected.
* Docs (and HAL source) say that we must write 0 on timer0 when
operating on AP mode to start TSF increment but this seems to
mess with DBA in many cases and beacon queue never gets started.
We fixed that on the previous patch.
We have some more things to deal with...
* For some reason (hw bug or something else) after restarting hostapd
a few times, beacon inteval seems to change from 100ms to a sec
(we get one beacon per sec).
* We need to set sleep timers on STA mode and enable power saving +
support PCF.
...but i think it's time we enable AP support "officialy" so that
we can get more feedback from users. I ran ath5k with the mentioned
patches + hostapd 0.6.8 and AP mode worked fine (it had some less
throughput on my tests than IBSS but it worked).

* Write next beacon timer even on AP mode since without this we get
no beacons + ath9k does it too. Docs say that we must write 0 on
this register on AP mode to start TSF increment, we do both to be
on the safe side.
* Fix num_tx_pending function, we never read the register :P that's
why we got all those "beacon queue 7 didn't stop messages".
* Put full prioriy on beacon queue, lock all queues with lower
priority using the arblock and also bypass any arblock by seting
the arblock ignore flag.
* For the CAB queue (do we need this thing ?, it seems crap) since
it's supposed to fire up after each beacon (we don't use it on driver
part, ath9k/MadWiFi does), don't make it DBA gated but instead make
it fire after each beacon by using the beacon sent gated flag.
* Increase bmiss threshold to 10, that's what we used on MadWiFi for
a long time. Also when we have pending frames on the beacon queue (we
got a beacon that didn't make it on the air) it's more likely that
the beacon queue never started, probably due to faulty DBA setting,
so change that "beacon queue didn't stop" message.
Tested this with AP mode and IBSS mode and seems to work fine ;-)
