rt2x00: Write the BSSID to register when interface is added
mananged mode in rt2500pci was broken, due to intf->bssid containing
random data rather then the expected 00:00:00:00:00:00
This is corrected by sending the BSSID to rt2x00lib_config_intf

This is almost correct but we do do break out of the TLV

Additionally, however, the current code is wrong. If there
is a TLV length check error, the code will report
invalid TLV after parsing: ...
because "len" will still be non-zero as we broke out of
the loop.
So to remove the warning and fix that issue, make the code
easier to read by doing length checking with an error label.
As a result, we can completely remove the "ret" variable.
Also, while at it, remove the "fixed_tlv_size" variable
since each TLV type has its own specified length, it just
happens that we have only variable length, flags (0 length)
and u32 TLVs right now. It should still be checked with more

mac80211: fix IBSS lockdep complaint
Bob reported a lockdep complaint originating in
the mac80211 IBSS code due to the common work
struct patch. The reason is that the IBSS and
station mode code have different locking orders
for the cfg80211 wdev lock and the work struct
(where "locking" implies running/canceling).
Fix this by simply not canceling the work in
the IBSS code, it is not necessary since when
the REQ_RUN bit is cleared, the work will run
without effect if it runs. When the interface
is set down, it is flushed anyway, so there's
no concern about it running after memory has
been invalidated either.
This fixes
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16419
Additionally, looking into this I noticed that
there's a small window while the IBSS is torn
down in which the work may be rescheduled and
the REQ_RUN bit be set again after leave() has
cleared it when a scan finishes at exactly the
same time. Avoid that by setting the ssid_len
to zero before clearing REQ_RUN which signals
to the scan finish code that this interface is
not active.

frames and need to know whether they should be
QoS frames or not. In other modes, there are
(currently) no frames the device is supposed to
send.
When you now consider virtual interfaces, it
becomes apparent that the current mechanism is
inadequate since it enables/disables QoS on a

to be on a per-interface scale.
Due to the above considerations, we can change

There were a few places where the sc->rxlink pointer was set to NULL "just in

Here is an example how this could happen (thanks Bob!):

ath5k_rx_stop
ath5k_tasklet_rx
sc->rxlink = NULL; /* just in case */
// following doesn't link used
// buffer to prev.

In ath5k_intr() we seem to try to work around a hardware bug, as the comment

Also the HAL does not set rxlink in this case (So where does this code come

ath9k: remove unneeded calculation of minimal calibration power
Remove tMinCalPower from ath9k_hw_set_def_power_cal_table(), as it's
never used. Remove corresponding arguments of the functions calculating
that value.

ath9k: merge noisefloor load implementations
AR5008+ and AR9003 currently use two separate implementations of the
ath9k_hw_loadnf function. There are three main differences:
- PHY registers for AR9003 are different
- AR9003 always uses 3 chains, earlier versions are more selective
- The AR9003 variant contains a fix for NF load timeouts
This patch merges the two implementations into one, storing the
register array in the ath_hw struct. The fix for NF load timeouts is
not just relevant for AR9003, but also important for earlier hardware,
so it's better to just keep one common implementation.

ath9k_hw: prevent a fast channel change after a rx DMA stuck issue
If the receive path gets stuck, a full hardware reset is necessary to
recover from it. If this happens during a scan, the whole scan might fail,
as each channel change bypasses the full reset sequence.
Fix this by resetting the fast channel change flag if stopping the
receive path fails.
This will reduce the number of error messages that look like this:
ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0x00000024 AR_DIAG_SW=0x40000020

ath9k_hw: fix antenna diversity on AR9285
On AR9285, the antenna switch configuration register uses more than just
16 bits. Because of an arbitrary mask applied to the EEPROM value that
stores this configuration, diversity was broken in some cases, leading
to a significant degradation in signal strength.
Fix this by changing the callback to return a 32 bit value and remove
the arbitrary mask.

rt2x00: Add missing TSF sync mode for AP operation
Currently rt2x00 uses the TSF_SYNC_BEACON mode for all beaconing
interface types. However, TSF_SYNC_BEACON is meant for IBSS networks and
thus implements TSF merging in the hardware. Rename TSF_SYNC_BEACON to
TSF_SYNC_ADHOC to better express its purpose and introduce the missing
TSF sync mode TSF_SYNC_AP_NONE which should be used for beaconing modes
that don't need TSF merging.

rt2x00: Remove set_tim callback from PCI drivers
Using the set_tim callback without managing the DTIM count and the
broad- and multicast buffering in hw, fw or the driver results in wrong
DTIM count values being sent out in beacons. Since all PCI drivers
fetch new beacons periodically and hence get an updated TIM we can just
remove the set_tim callback from these.
The rt2x00 USB drivers don't update the beacon periodically and thus
rely on the set_tim callback to get a correct TIM for beacon
transmission. USB devices still suffer from the DTIM count being wrong
under some circumstances but removing the set_tim callback from these
would cause more harm then good.
