This should fix the SW-IOMMU bounce buffer starvation
seen ok kernel.org bugzilla 11811:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11811
Users on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2 would see something like:
DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 4224 bytes at device 0000:0b:00.0
Unfortunately its only easy to trigger on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2
so far so its difficult to debug (even with swiotlb=force).
We were pci_unmap_single()'ing less bytes than what we called
for with pci_map_single() and as such we were starving
the swiotlb from its 64MB amount of bounce buffers. We remain
consistent and now always use sc->rxbufsize for RX. While at
it we update the beacon DMA maps as well to only use the data
portion of the skb, previous to this we were pci_map_single()'ing
more data for beaconing than what we tell the hardware it can use,
therefore pushing more iotlb abuse.
Still not sure why this is so easily triggerable on
MacBook Pro 3.1, it may be the hardware configuration
tends to use more memory > 3GB mark for DMA.

This enables Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) on ath9k.
ANI is as algorithm designed to minimize the detrimental
effects of time-varying interferences. This should
help with throughput in noisy environments. To use
ANI we re-enable the MIB interrupt. Since ANI works
on a timer and updates the noise floor we take
advantage of this and also report a non-static noise
floor now to mac80211.

This patch addresses an issue with the locking order. ath_rx_flush_tid()
uses spin_lock/unlock_bh when IRQs are disabled in sta_notify by mac80211.
As node clean up is still pending with ath9k and this problematic portion
of the code is expected to change anyway, thinking of a proper fix may not
be worthwhile. So having this interim fix helps the users to get rid of the
kernel warning message.
Pasted the kernel warning message for reference.
