mac80211: optimize tx status processing
When a cooked monitor interface is active, ieee80211_tx_status()
generates a radiotap header for every single frame, even if it wasn't
injected and thus won't be sent to a monitor interface.
This patch reduces cpu utilization by moving the cooked monitor check a
bit earlier, before it generates the rtap header.

ath5k: fixing retries in ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_desc
The rate control algorithm, default is Minstrel for ath5k, determines
the number of retries to use for each rate. However, there exists in
ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_desc (which is called for AR5212 like devices)
a set number of retries defined by AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES. The set
number of tries is added to the tx_tries0 variable setup by the rate

Currently, the padding position is based on

padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the
following position :
- management : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- control : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS
- invalid : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is :
- management : 24
- control : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10
- data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order
- invalid : 24
So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use
4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ...
not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for
debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it
correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding.
Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before
calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor
interfaces.
It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb

wl1271: Fix queue stopping/waking for TX path
The queue stopping/waking functionality was broken in a way that could
cause huge latencies in TX transfers and even cause the TX to stall in the
right circumstances. Correct these problems.

wl1271: Improvements to the TX path
- Fix a TX result overflow problem that was present in the TX path and visible
with at least linksys AP's (probably any AP with high throughput capability.)
- Optimize TX by writing FW trigger for a group of TX frames instead of
each and every frame.
- Slightly optimize the TX path code.

wl1271: don't get received frames from hardware in PLT mode
Most probably patch "wl1271: add most of the normal initialization commands
to PLT mode" enabled the RX path in firmware so that now driver received
frames and passed them to mac80211, which warned about them.
Workaround this by not retrieving frames from the hardware, just ignore them.

ath5k: move ath5k_hw_register_timeout() into reset.c
ath5k_hw_register_timeout() was duplicated between phy.c and reset.c.
Since it is too big and too much used to be an inline function, move it
away from the ath5k.h header into reset.c. Remove _ATH5K_RESET and
_ATH5K_PHY defines.
