iwlwifi: fix erroneous use of iwl_rx_packet.len as a length
The field called 'len' in struct iwl_rx_packet is in fact not just a length
field but also includes some flags from the flow handler. In several places
throughout the driver, this causes incorrect values to be interpreted as
lengths when the field is improperly masked.
In most situations the improper use is for debugging output, and simply results
in an erroneous message, such as:
[551933.070224] ieee80211 phy0: I iwl_rx_statistics Statistics notification received (480 vs -1367342620).
which should read '(480 vs 484)'.
In at least one case this could case bad things to happen:
Given the rampant misuse of this field without proper masking throughout the
driver (every use but one), this patch renames the field from 'len' to
'len_n_flags' to reduce confusion. It also adds the proper masking when
this field is used as a length value.

mac80211: Move mpath and mpp growth to mesh workqueue.
This prevents calling rcu_synchronize from within the tx path by moving the

Move mesh_table_free and mesh_table_grow from mesh.c to mesh_pathtbl.c and
declare them static.
Also, re-enable mesh in Kconfig and update the configuration description.

mac80211: Use 3-address format for mesh broadcast frames.
The 11s task group recently changed the frame mesh multicast/broadcast frame
format to use 3-address. This was done to avoid interactions with widely
deployed lazy-WDS access points.
This patch changes the format of group addressed frames, both mesh-originated
and proxied, to use the data format defined in draft D2.08 and forward. The
address fields used for group addressed frames is:
In 802.11 header
ToDS:0 FromDS:1
addr1: DA (broadcast/multicast address)
addr2: TA
addr3: Mesh SA
In address extension header:
addr4: SA (only present if frame was proxied)
Note that this change breaks backward compatibility with earlier mesh stack
versions.

ath5k: Use SWI to trigger calibration
* Get rid of calibration timer, instead use a software interrupt
to schedule the calibration tasklet.
a) We don't need a timer for this, there is no need for accuracy
even with round_jiffies i think this is a waste of resources.
Also we don't need to run calibration if we are idle (no
interrupts).
b) When we add ANI support we 'll just extend the poll function
and calibration tasklet and handle all periodic phy calibration
on one place (much cleaner).
c) Having calibration on a tasklet is better since during calibration
we can't transmit or receive (antennas are detached to measure
noise floor), previously calibration could run in parallel with
tx/rx and interfere (packet loss).
v2: kill tasklet on stop_hw, stop/wake queues
v3: use time_is_before_eq_jiffies to compare timestamp with current
