ath6kl: Store scan request info in-advance before sending SCAN request
In current code, Scan request info is recorded in vif->scan_req
after sending SCAN request to the firmware in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan().
In some corner cases, firmware sends SCAN_COMPLETE event immediately
when it receives SCAN request, which internally executes scan
complete event handler ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event() first.
So, Scan completion handler will a get a chance to executed even
before storing scan request info in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan().
Scan completion handler never report SCAN_COMPLETE event to
cfg80211 if scan request info(vif->scan_req) is NULL. This leads
to scan failure issue ("Device or resource busy error") during
next SCAN request from the user space. This patch ensures that scan
request info is stored before sending SCAN request.

to see two different probe response frames - one from P2P device and the other

(ath6kl_mgmt_tx). For GO probe response, ath6kl needs to call
ath6kl_send_go_probe_resp (this will add only WSC/P2P IEs and the rest of the
IEs are filled in by the firmware). That was done based on the nw_type ==
AP_NETWORK which would work if P2P Device role were in a separate netdev. When
P2P Device and GO use the same netdev, ath6kl needs to use the special GO probe

flags, and check if we are already in process of sequential reading
TX_STA_FIFO, before requesting new reads.
Change timer to hrtimer, that make TX_STA_FIFO overruns less possible.
Use 200 us for initial timeout, and then reschedule in 100 us period,
this values probably have to be tuned.
Make changes on txdone work. Schedule it from
rt2800usb_tx_sta_fifo_read_completed() callback when first valid status
show up. Check in callback if tx status timeout happens, and schedule
work on that condition too. That make possible to remove tx status

mac80211: Don't let regulatory make us deaf
When regulatory information changes our HT behavior (e.g,
when we get a country code from the AP we have just associated
with), we should use this information to change the power with
which we transmit, and what channels we transmit. Sometimes
the channel parameters we derive from regulatory information
contradicts the parameters we used in association. For example,
we could have associated specifying HT40, but the regulatory
rules we apply may forbid HT40 operation.
In the situation above, we should reconfigure ourselves to
transmit in HT20 only, however it makes no sense for us to
disable receive in HT40, since if we associated with these
parameters, the AP has every reason to expect we can and
will receive packets this way. The code in mac80211 does
not have the capability of sending the appropriate action
frames to signal a change in HT behaviour so the AP has
no clue we can no longer receive frames encoded this way.
In some broken AP implementations, this can leave us
effectively deaf if the AP never retries in lower HT rates.
This change breaks up the channel_type parameter in the
ieee80211_enable_ht function into a separate receive and
transmit part. It honors the channel flags set by regulatory
in order to configure the rate control algorithm, but uses
the capability flags to configure the channel on the radio,
since these were used in association to set the AP's transmit
rate.
