ath9k: fix queue depth check for forming new aggregates
To improve aggregation length, there should not be more than two fully formed
A-MPDU frames in the hardware queue. To ensure this, the code checks the tx
queue length before forming new A-MPDUs. This can reduce the throughput (or
maybe even starve out A-MPDU traffic) when too many non-aggregated frames are
in the queue.
Fix this by keeping track of pending A-MPDU frames (even when they're sent out
as single frames), but exclude rate control probing frames to improve

rt2x00: fix hang when unplugging USB device in use
When an rt2x00 USB device is unplugged while in use, it reliably
hangs the whole system. After some time the watchdog prints:

ath9k_hw: fix PA predistortion training power selection
The EEPROM contains scale factors for the tx power, which define
the range of allowable difference between target power and training
power. If the difference is too big, PA predistortion cannot be used.
For 2.4 GHz there is only one scale factor, for 5 GHz there are
three, depending on the specific frequency range.

The EEPROM PAPRD rate mask fields only contain mask values for actual

ath9k: fix PA predistortion thermal measurement handling
To be able to measure the thermal values correctly for PAPRD, we need
to send training frames before setting up the gain table for the measurement,
and then again afterwards for the actual training.
For further improvement, send training frames at MCS0 instead of 54 MBit/s
legacy. That way we can use the No-ACK flag for the transmission, which
speeds up PAPRD training in general, as the hardware won't have to
retransmit and wait for ACK timeout (was previously set to 4 * 6
transmission attempts).

ath9k_hw: fix the slot time setting for long distance links
Testing shows that adjusting the slot time based on the coverage class
produces very high latencies and very low throughput on long distance links.
Adjusting only the ACK timeout and leaving the slot time at the regular
values - while technically not optimal for CSMA - works a lot better on
long links (tested with 10 km distance)

ath9k: fix sequence number assigment for non-AMPDU QoS data frames

('ath9k: more tx setup cleanups') merged tx path code for HT vs
non-HT frames, however it did not pass the tid pointer to
ath_tx_send_normal, causing an inconsistency between AMPDU vs
non-AMPDU sequence number handling.
Fix this by always passing in the tid pointer for all QoS data frames.

The 802.11 spec states that the STA that generated the last Beacon frame shall
be the STA that response to a probe request. This is important for congestion
reduction when a probe request is received - only 1 node in an adhoc BSS
will transmit a response. While mac80211 drivers should provide the
tx_last_beacon function to report if they transmitted the last beacon many
do not. As an attempt to reduce probe response congestion default this
to 0 such that a node not implementing this capability does not contribute
to unnecessary congestion.
In a modern medium sized office environment I see upwards of 100 probe
requests per second received at a given node from various hardware/OS/drivers
doing zeroconf 'active probing' as opposed to passively listening for beacons.
With a modest 10-node adhoc network consisting of drivers that do not implement
this tx_last_beacon feature, I have seen this result in the simultaneous xmit
of probe responses accumulating to 500 probe responses per second because of
collisions which brings the adhoc network to its knees as well as causes
needless congestion.
