ath9k: fix BSSID mask calculation
At the time the .add_interface driver op is called, the interface has not
been marked as running yet, so ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces will
not pass it to the iterator function.
Because of this, the calculated BSSID mask is wrong, which breaks multi-BSS
operation.
Additionally, the current way of comparing all addresses against each other
is pointless, as the hardware only uses the hardware MAC address and the BSSID
mask for matching the destination address, so all the address array
reallocation is completely unnecessary.
This patch simplifies the logic by setting the initial mask bytes to 0xff
and removing all bits in the iterator call that don't match the hardware MAC
address. It also calls the iterator for the vif that was passed to
add_interface()

Additionally rather then calling rt2x00usb_work_txdone() for

ath9k: fix spurious MIC failure reports
According to the hardware documentation, the MIC failure bit is only
valid if the frame was decrypted using a valid TKIP key and is not a
fragment.
In some setups I've seen hardware-reported MIC failures on an AP that
was configured for CCMP only, so it's clear that additional checks are
necessary.

The queue stopping/waking functionality was broken in a way that could

mac80211: Do not generate CQM events based on first Beacon frames
The signal strength value in a single RX frame is not that reliable,

mac80211: Fix signal strength average initialization for CQM events
The ave_beacon_signal value uses 1/16 dB unit and as such, must be
initialized with the signal level of the first Beacon frame multiplied
by 16. This fixes an issue where the initial CQM events are reported
incorrectly with a burst of events while the running average
approaches the correct value after the incorrect initialization. This
could cause user space -based roaming decision process to get quite
confused at the moment when we would like to go through authentication
and DHCP.

mac80211: fix offchannel queue stop
Somebody noticed this problem, and I outlined
to them how to fix it, but haven't heard back
from them. So while I was adding the state
field I figured I could use it to fix it.
The problem, as I understand it, is that when
we go offchannel while the driver has a queue
stopped, the driver will likely start draining
the queue and then enable it while offchannel.
This in turn will enable the interface queue,
and that leads to transmitting data frames on
the wrong channel.
Fix this by keeping track of offchannel status
per interface, and not enabling the interface
queues on interfaces that are offchannel when
the driver enables a queue.

mac80211: support runtime interface type changes
Add support to mac80211 for changing the interface
type even when the interface is UP, if the driver
supports it.
To achieve this
* add a new driver callback for switching,
* split some of the interface up/down code out
into new functions (do_open/do_stop), and
* maintain an own __SDATA_RUNNING bit that will
not be set during interface type, so that any
other code doesn't use the interface.
