b43: N-PHY: use more bits for offset in RSSI calibration
When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers
bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example:
offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j];
formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat
number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes:
0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25.
il4965_rs_initialize_lq checks to see if sta is null, however, before that
check il4965_rs_use_green dereferences sta when intializing use_green.
Avoid a potential null pointer dereference error by only calling
il4965_rs_use_green after we are sure sta is not null.
Smatch analysis:

b43: A fix for DMA transmission sequence errors
Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.
This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.
Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.

This patch is a bug fix for an issue wherein power save was not
working for PCIe. This happens because for processing power save
sleep confirm command we pull skb so that skb->data points ahead
of interface header. We use same skb to get other cmda responses
as well. So if we don't push skb after processing cmd response,
it results into reduction in skb->len and finally skb->len reaches
zero. This causes failure in processing sleep command response.
