The 4-bit reversal flip_4bit is replaced with the bitrev helper
bitrev8 and a 4-bit shift. The B43_WARN is moved to the location
where a register is read from for checking there. The other caller
explicitly passes an array index which is guaranteed to be within range
and so a B43_WARN is not added there.

In ath5k_tasklet_rx, both status structures 'rxs' and 'rs' are
initialized at the top of the tasklet, but not within the loop.
If the loop is executed multiple times in the tasklet then the
variables may see changes from previous packets.
For TKIP, this results in 'Invalid Michael MIC' errors if two packets
are processed in the tasklet: rxs.flag gets set to RX_DECRYPTED by
mac80211 when it decrypts the first encrypted packet. The subsequent
packet will have RX_DECRYPTED set upon entry to mac80211, so mac80211
will not try to decrypt it.
We currently initialize all but two fields in the structures, so fix
the other two.

All interfaces should set the IEEE80211_TXPD_REQ_TX_STATUS flag for all TX frames
which will force the master interface to set the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS
flag. This in turn will allow drivers to check for that flag before reporting
the TX status to mac80211.
This is very usefull when frames (like beacons, RTS and CTS-to-self) should not
be reported back to mac80211. Later we could add more extensive checks to
exclude more frames from being reported, or let mac80211 decide if it wants
the frame for status reporting or not.
v2: Monitor interfaces should also set IEEE80211_TXPD_REQ_TX_STATUS

device_rename only performs useful and race free validity
checking at the optional sysfs level so depending on it
for all of the validity checking in cfg80211_dev_rename
is racy.
Instead implement all of the needed validity checking

trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had
confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of
what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from
the wireless extensions.
this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify
clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can
provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future.
for signal:
IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific
IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB - dB difference to unspecified reference point
IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW
for noise we currently only have dBm:
IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW
if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has
to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications
to make sense of the signal values.
i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it
but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in
doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing
the hardware flags of the driver.

In commit 31ccc476b77234f6afb3 (mac80211: QoS related cleanups) I
accidentally changed these to use IEEE80211_MAX_AMPDU_QUEUES twice
which obviously is wrong, it should be IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES once.
Currently harmless as they're both the same value anyway.

Use net_device_stats from net_device structure instead of local.
Kill atmel_get_stats function, because by default it is used
identical internal_stats function from net/core/dev.c
No need to memset stats to 0, because they are allocated by kzalloc.

initializations to 0/NULL. Out of scope for this patch.

iwl3945 <---> mac80211 <----> wpa_supplicant <---> NetworkManager
When a hardware scan is completed and another scan is requested in less
than two seconds, iwlwifi will not do the second scan and will pass the
error code -EAGAIN back to mac80211 where it quickly dies. The error
code is not passed along to the calling program wpa_supplicant. After a
timeout, wpa_supplicant will just give up but it will not know why the
scan failed. This is a weakness in the design.
I ran into this issue when I was trying to figure out why it takes more
an a minute for NetworkManager to connect after Networking has been
disabled and then re-enabled. I found a good deal of unnecessary work
being done because mac80211 requests authentication when the interface
is not configured, the ANY mode. I created an experimental passive
(NOTANY) mode for mac80211 to eliminate this case. Then NetworkManager
became so fast that I ran into the iwlwifi 2 second delay next scan
issue which we are discussing.
The patch resolves the problem by bypassing the delay if the scan request
is a direct scan. It should do less harm to the hardware.

As discussed earlier, we can unify locking in struct sta_info
and use just a single spinlock protecting all members of the
structure that need protection. Many don't, but one of the
especially bad ones is the 'flags' member that can currently
be clobbered when RX and TX is being processed on different
CPUs at the same time.
Because having four spinlocks for different, mostly exclusive
parts of a single structure is overkill, this patch also kills
the ampdu and mesh plink spinlocks and uses just a single one
for everything. Because none of the spinlocks are nested, this
is safe.
It remains to be seen whether or not we should make the sta
flags use atomic bit operations instead, for now though this
is a safe thing and using atomic operations instead will be
very simple using the new static inline functions this patch
introduces for accessing sta->flags.
Since spin_lock_bh() is used with this lock, there shouldn't
be any contention even if aggregation is enabled at around the
same time as both requires frame transmission/reception which
is in a bh context.
