Rajkumar Manoharan 10636bc2d6 ath9k: fix max phy rate at rate control init
The stations always chooses 1Mbps for all trasmitting frames,
whenever the AP is configured to lock the supported rates.
As the max phy rate is always set with the 4th from highest phy rate,
this assumption might be wrong if we have less than that. Fix that.

Rajkumar Manoharan 93348928f2 ath9k_hw: Fix noise floor calibration timeout on fast channel change
During the fast channel change noise floor values are being loaded
twice at init_cal and after channel_change. The commit "ath9k_hw:
Improve fast channel change for AR9003 chips" overlooked it that
caused failure to load nf while doing bgscan. This patch performs noise
floor calibration after the fast and full reset.

Previously the driver did not care if TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS
was set on aggregated frames or not and it would silently
drop successfully sent frames if possible [much like:
"no news is good news!"].

But, TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS was invented for a reason and
no tx status report should ever be dropped if it is set.

Currently Tx IQ calibration is enabled by default for all AR9003

chip after processing ini. And also the carrier leak calibration
status is checked during init cal. As the init_cal is being called
for fast channel change too, the tx_cl status only be read after
full reset. Hence moving that into process ini function.

Rajkumar Manoharan eec353c5da ath9k_hw: Fix ASPM L1 issue for AR9480
Because of not clearing Bit 14 of AR_WA, the ASPM L1 is not
enabled when entering into sleep mode. AR9480 does not need
bit 14 to be set.

Felix Fietkau 846d936350 ath9k_hw: fix a regression in key miss handling
The commit "ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect key_miss handling" changed the code
to only report key miss errors if a MIC error wasn't reported.
When checking the flags in that order in the MAC code, it might miss some
real events, because the value of the MIC error flag is undefined under
some conditions.

The primary issue addressed by the previous commit is making sure that
MIC errors are properly reported on the STA side. This can be fixed in
a better way by adding a separate rx status flag for key miss and
ignoring it for multicast frames.

This fix slightly improves stability in AP mode on some older hardware,
like AR9132.

Felix Fietkau ca2c68cc7b ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling
The code for handling various restrictions concerning regulatory limits,
antenna gain, etc. is very convoluted and duplicated across various
EEPROM parsing implementations, making it hard to review.

This patch partially cleans up the mess by unifying regulatory limit
handling in one function and simplifying handling of antenna gain.
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
the driver anyway.

Felix Fietkau ac06697c79 ath9k: disable unnecessary PHY error reporting
PHY errors relevant for ANI are always tracked by hardware counters, the
bits that allow them to pass through the rx filter are independent of that.
Enabling PHY errors in the rx filter often creates lots of useless DMA traffic
and might be responsible for some of the rx dma stop failure warnings.

Felix Fietkau 26a64259b7 ath9k: improve PS filter clearing and retry counting for A-MPDU
Do not increment the retry counter if packets to a sleeping station
were not sent because of tx failure, instead of only checking the filter
flag.
Clear the PS filter only after an A-MPDU was reported as filtered,
otherwise the hardware might do some unnecessary extra retransmissions.
