mwl8k: use traffic threshold to decide when to start ampdu
Currently, ampdu stream is created on the first qos packet to an
HT sta. The overhead of setting up the BA session may not be
justified if the outgoing packet rate is minimal (e.g., ping). So
we only allow ampdu streams after seeing a critical number of
packets in an arbitrary one-second interval.

Currently ath9k only available in menuconfig if PCI bus
support is enabled. However the driver is required for
the built-in wireless MACs of the Atheros AR9130/AR9132
SoCs. These SoCs have no PCI controller, the wireless
MAC is connected to the AHB bus on them.
Introduce separated config options for the supported
buses, in order to allow building of ath9h without PCI
bus support.
As a bonus, this patch removes the cross-reference of
the ATHEROS_AR71XX option which is not present in the

ath5k: fix tx status reporting issues
During normal operation, minstrel was showing suspicious EWMA probabilities
exceeding 100%. It looks like the tx status reporting in ath5k was not
properly clearing the rate index for rates which were never attempted.
This is caused by uninitialized stale data in the on-stack tx status
information, which is reused when more frames are received.
To fix this, rely on ts->ts_final_idx to select the last attempted rate,
instead of checking whether ts->ts_rate is set.
Additionally, the conversion from the driver rate index back to the
mac80211 rate index can be dropped, as the mac80211 tx status will still
have the original rate index which was used to set up the descriptor.
Additionally, one more inaccuracy was fixed - the final rate attempt

successful.

To prevent this we suck out all pending requests when

The impact of not having this applied is that a user
with privileges can issue a userspace regulatory hint
while we are disasocciating and this would prevent any

That also simplifies the code and makes it
faster since it doesn't have to check all.

iwlagn: simplify ucode check code
The code in iwlcore_verify_inst_sparse really
doesn't need to keep track of the number of
errors it encountered since a single one is
fatal.
Also, the code in iwl_verify_inst_full is just
used to print out some things, so rename it to
iwl_print_inst and don't give it a return code
and just make it print out the values.

rt2x00: Drop __TIME__ usage
The kernel already prints its build timestamp during boot, no need to
repeat it in random drivers and produce different object files each

Current ath9k code does not handle beacon timers on opmode
specific. One such example is that a STA beacon config overwrites
already configured AP vif's beacon timers during scan.
On multi station vif case, configure beacon timers beased
on primary vif selected. This also helps while moving back
to single STA vif from multi STA vifs, where the power save
is enabled and hw has to be reconfigured with proper
beacon and bssid/aid. Otherwise connection poll will be triggered
so frequently due to beacon loss.

As of now bssid/aid is overridden with recently changed vif's
bss config. This may cause improper beacon updation due to
bssid/aid mismatch. On station mode, select an associated
sta vif as primary vif and configure that vif's bss into hw.
Update the primary vif on interface change and bss info change.
