the existing connection disassociates and led off command is sent

Patch fixes this by just avoiding sending the led off/on command when

is to start or stop the blinking.
There are three states in led
1) Always on when radio is on
2) Always off when radio is off
3) blink when associated and if there is some traffic.
In this callback 'allow_blinking' needs to be set false
when associated, as LED will be always on.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface
The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create
a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use
to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as
well as events when the status changes.
Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read
a number of times to get the initial state, and every
further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next
event from the kernel. The same structure you read is
also used when writing to it to change the soft block of
a given device, all devices of a given type, or all
devices.
This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in
order to be able to test without it present since its
functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely
and distros and users may not want the input part of
rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will
also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and
consequently add the input code to the feature removal
schedule.
In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and
without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its
eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists
if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input.
It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct

ath9k: Add sanity check for beacon_int in adhoc/mesh case
It looks like mac80211 can request the driver to start beaconing with
a beacon interval of zero in some cases (at least for mesh point). This
does not sound correct and something may need to be fixed in
mac80211. However, taken into account the unpleasantness of getting
stuck in an infinite busy loop with rtnl_lock held, let's add a quick
workaround in the driver to avoid the worst symptom while someone more
familiar with the mesh implementation can figure out what should be done
with mac80211 as far as beacon interval configuration is concerned.

ath5k: remove conf->beacon_int usage
ieee80211_conf->beacon_int was deprecated and removed in a cleanup
patch, however it was accidentally added back to ath5k in the change
"ath5k: Allow user/driver to set txpower." Remove it once more,
fixing the following warning:
mac80211: handle -EALREADY on cfg80211 op assoc req
When the SME requests to associate to an open AP
ieee80211_sta_set_extra_ie() can be called with zero IE
length. When this happens or when the extra IE has already
been set -EALREADY is passed down and the supplicant will
complain that the operation is already in progress and it will
not let us associate. We correct this by treating -EALREADY
from ieee80211_sta_set_extra_ie() as a success just as we do
for wext.

ath9k: Reset SC_OP_TSF_RESET flag after stuck beacon
I have a TrendNet 652-BRP running OpenWRT + ath9k very well. The only
problem is that the beacon gets stuck maybe once a day. After
Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan's "ath9k: cleanup beacon parameters
configuration" patch, ath9k would nearly re-configure the beacons after it
detected the stuck beacon, and did a reset. But it would fail the
SC_OP_TSF_RESET check in ath_beacon_config_ap. This patch gets the beacon
fully reconfigured after the reset.

The comment (which I remove) says that the translation is done SPI routines.
IMHO this can't work because the SPI driver does not know whether the incomming
bytes are part of the registers/bytes which need to be flipped or part of
packet data which has to remain untouched.
While adding le helpers I also removed spu_write_u32() which has no users.
