Instead of the old pcmcia_request_irq() interface, drivers may now
choose between:
- calling request_irq/free_irq directly. Use the IRQ from *p_dev->irq.
- use pcmcia_request_irq(p_dev, handler_t); the PCMCIA core will
clean up automatically on calls to pcmcia_disable_device() or
device ejection.
- drivers still not capable of IRQF_SHARED (or not telling us so) may
use the deprecated pcmcia_request_exclusive_irq() for the time

This patch changes the way JOIN's are performed, and channel numbers updated.
The reason for this is that the firmware JOIN command clears WPA(2) key
material, and if done while associated to a WPA(2) secured AP, will render
the data-path unusable.
While the channel is not usually changed while associated (and currently we
could not even support something like that), after performing a scan operation
while associated, mac80211 will re-set the current channel to the driver. This
caused our problem.
Also, the mac80211 is assuming that the driver channel configuration remains
persistent over periods of IDLE. Therefore remove channel resetting to zero
from the unjoin function.

The current way of managing beaconing in ad-hoc
mode has a subtle race - the beacon obtained from mac80211
is freed in the SWBA handler rather than the TX
completion routine. But transmission of beacons goes
through the normal SKB queue maintained in hif_usb,
leading to a situation where __skb_dequeue() in the TX
completion handler goes kaput.
Fix this by simply getting a beacon from mac80211 for
every SWBA and free it in its completion routine.

Currently, when one interface switches HT mode,
all others will follow along. This is clearly
undesirable, since the new one might switch to
no-HT while another one is operating in HT.
Address this issue by keeping track of the HT
mode per interface, and allowing only changes
that are compatible, i.e. switching into HT40+
is not possible when another interface is in
HT40-, in that case the second one needs to
fall back to HT20.
Also, to allow drivers to know what's going on,
store the per-interface HT mode (channel type)
in the virtual interface's bss_conf.

Currently (all tested with hwsim) you can do stupid
things like setting up an AP on a certain channel,
then adding another virtual interface and making
that associate on another channel -- this will make
the beaconing to move channel but obviously without
the necessary IEs data update.
In order to improve this situation, first make the
configuration APIs (cfg80211 and nl80211) aware of
multi-channel operation -- we'll eventually need
that in the future anyway. There's one userland API
change and one API addition. The API change is that
now SET_WIPHY must be called with virtual interface
index rather than only wiphy index in order to take
effect for that interface -- luckily all current
users (hostapd) do that. For monitor interfaces, the
old setting is preserved, but monitors are always
slaved to other devices anyway so no guarantees.
The second userland API change is the introduction
of a per virtual interface SET_CHANNEL command, that
hostapd should use going forward to make it easier
to understand what's going on (it can automatically
detect a kernel with this command).
Other than mac80211, no existing cfg80211 drivers
are affected by this change because they only allow
a single virtual interface.
mac80211, however, now needs to be aware that the
channel settings are per interface now, and needs
to disallow (for now) real multi-channel operation,
which is another important part of this patch.
One of the immediate benefits is that you can now
start hostapd to operate on a hardware that already
has a connection on another virtual interface, as
long as you specify the same channel.
Note that two things are left unhandled (this is an
improvement -- not a complete fix):
* different HT/no-HT modes
currently you could start an HT AP and then
connect to a non-HT network on the same channel
which would configure the hardware for no HT;
that can be fixed fairly easily
* CSA
An AP we're connected to on a virtual interface
might indicate switching channels, and in that
case we would follow it, regardless of how many
other interfaces are operating; this requires
more effort to fix but is pretty rare after all

This patch removes the incomplete AMPDU implementation in ar9170usb.
The code in question is:
* too big and complex (more than 550 SLOC.)
This is enough to qualify for a new separate code file!
* unbalanced quantity & quality
over-engineered areas like:
* xmit scheduling and queuing frames for multiple HT peers
* redundant frame sorting
are confronted by gaping holes:
* accurate transmission feedback
* firmware error-handling and device reset
* HT rate control algorithm
* error-prone
Since its inclusion, hardly anything was done to fix
any of the outlined flaws from the initial commit message.
=> This also indicates poor maintainability.
* relies heavily on several spinlocks.

Local bus and USB drivers will need to do locking differently.
The original orinoco_usb patches had a boolean variable controlling
whether spin_lock_bh was used, or irq based locking. This version
provides wrappers for the lock functions and the drivers specify the
functions pointers needed.
This will introduce a performance penalty, but I'm not expecting it to

The TX status code is currently abusing the ampdu_ack_map field (a bitmap) to
count the number of successfully received frames. The comments in mac80211.h
show there are actually three different, relevant variables, of which we are
currently using two, both incorrectly. Fix this by making
- ampdu_ack_len -> the number of ACKed frames (i.e. successes)
- ampdu_ack_map -> the bitmap
- ampdu_len -> the total number of frames sent (i.e., attempts)
to match the header file (and verified with ath9k's usage) and updating Intel's
RS code to match.

This is just a cleanup and doesn't change how the code works.
debugfs_create_dir() and debugfs_create_file() return an error pointer
(-ENODEV) if CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is not enabled, otherwise if an error occurs
they return NULL. This is how they are implemented and what it says in
the DebugFS documentation. DebugFS can not be compiled as a module.
As a result, we only need to check for error pointers and particularly
-ENODEV one time to know that DebugFS is enabled. This patch keeps the
first check for error pointers and removes the rest.
The other reason for this patch, is that it silences some Smatch warnings.
Smatch sees the condition "(result != -ENODEV)" and assumes that it's
possible for "result" to equal -ENODEV. If it were possible it would lead
to an error pointer dereference. But since it's not, we can just remove
the check.

Quote from comment #17:
"The problem is the innocent looking moving of the tx processing to
after the rx processing in the tasklet. Quoting from the changelog:
This patch does it the same way, except that it also prioritize
rx data processing, simply because tx routines *can* wait.
This is causing an issue with us referencing already freed memory,
because some skb's we transmit, we immediately receive back, such
as those for reading the eeprom (*) and getting stats.
What can happen because of the moving of the tx processing to after
the rx processing is that when the tasklet first runs after doing a
special skb tx (such as eeprom) we've already received the answer
to it.
Then the rx processing ends up calling p54_find_and_unlink_skb to
find the matching tx skb for the just received special rx skb and
frees the tx skb.
Then after the processing of the rx skb answer, and thus freeing
the tx skb, we go process the completed tx ring entires, and then
dereference the free-ed skb, to see if it should free free-ed by
p54p_check_tx_ring()."

When I set up multiple VAPs with ath9k, I encountered an issue that
the traffic may be lost after a while.
The detailed phenomenon is
1. After a while the clients connected to one of these VAPs will get
into a state that no broadcast/multicast packets can be transfered
successfully while the unicast packets can be transfered normally.
2. Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well,
because the ARP entry is expired and it can't be freshed due to the
broadcast trouble.
It's caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this
issue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven't work out a fix yet.
I referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k.
The method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)'s address, and
associated that mac and the group key. It requires the hardware
supports multicast frame key search. It seems true for AR9160.
Not sure whether it's the correct way to fix this issue. But it seems
to work in my test. The patch is attached, feel free to revise it.

mode, and checking for monitor mode this way is
not really correct anyway since it could be the
case while operating.
Now iwl_is_monitor_mode() is no longer used so
remove it completely.

Even the initial single/dual stream values will be overridden later when
issue link quality command; but still make sense not to use hard-code
value during initialization. Single/Dual stream mask are used to indicate the
best antenna for SISO/MIMO; different NIC has different tx antenna
configuration; so the parameter need to based on the valid tx antenna.
1x2 device: single tx antenna available, only SISO is valid
configuration, but still need to set up MIMO configuration, so set it up
with antenna A & B as default.
2x2 device: two tx antenna available, dual_stream will use both valid
antenna.
3x3 device: three tx antenna available, skip the first antenna and
choice the second and third antenna for dual_stream.

When an internal scan is started, nothing protects the
is_internal_short_scan variable which can cause crashes,
cf. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15667.
Fix this by making the short scan request use the mutex
for locking, which requires making the request go to a
work struct so that it can sleep.
