This rewrites the error handling policies in the TX status handler.
It tries to be error-tolerant as in "try hard to not crash the machine".
It won't recover from errors (that are bugs in the firmware or driver),
because that's impossible. However, it will return a more or less useful
error message and bail out. It also tries hard to use rate-limited messages
to not flood the syslog in case of a failure.

Enforce all device constraints on the descriptor memory region.
There are several constraints on the descriptor memory, as documented
in the specification. The current code does not enforce them and/or
incorrectly enforces them.
Those constraints are:
- The address limitations on 30/32bit engines, that also apply to
the skbs.
- The 4k alignment requirement on 30/32bit engines.
- The 8k alignment requirement on 64bit engines.

Do not mess with the original skb, but allocate an independent bouncebuffer.
This protects against bad interference with mac80211's assumptions about
the skb (which already caused bugs).

ops->set_tim() must be atomic, so b43 trying to acquire a mutex leads
to a kernel crash. This patch trades an easy to trigger crash in AP
mode for an unlikely race condition. According to Michael, the real
fix would be to allow set_tim() to sleep, since b43 is not the only
driver that needs to sleep in all callbacks.

While there may be a case for a driver adding its
own bits of radiotap information, none currently
does. Also, drivers would have to copy the code
to generate the radiotap bits that now mac80211
generates. If some driver in the future needs to
add some driver-specific information I'd expect
that to be in a radiotap vendor namespace and we
can add a different way of passing such data up
and having mac80211 include it.
Additionally, rename IEEE80211_CONF_RADIOTAP to
IEEE80211_CONF_MONITOR since it's still used by
b43(legacy) to obtain per-frame timestamps.
The purpose of this patch is to simplify the RX
code in mac80211 to make it easier to add paged
skb support.

b43 allocates a bouncebuffer, if the supplied TX skb is in an invalid
memory range for DMA.
However, this is broken in that it fails to copy over some metadata to the
new skb.
This patch fixes three problems:
* Failure to adjust the ieee80211_tx_info pointer to the new buffer.
This results in a kmemcheck warning.
* Failure to copy the skb cb, which contains ieee80211_tx_info, to the new skb.
This results in breakage of various TX-status postprocessing (Rate control).
* Failure to transfer the queue mapping.
This results in the wrong queue being stopped on saturation and can result in queue overflow.

"b43: Fix PPC crash in rfkill polling on unload" fixed the bug reported
in Bugzilla No. 14181; however, it introduced a new bug. Whenever the
radio switch was turned off, it was necessary to unload and reload
the driver for it to recognize the switch again.
This patch fixes both the original bug in #14181 and the bug introduced by
the previous patch. It must be stated, however, that if there is a BCM4306/3
with an rfkill switch (not yet proven), then the driver will need an
unload/reload cycle to turn the device back on.

The DMA-API debugging facility complains about b43 mapping memory from
stack for SDIO-based cards.
Indeed, b43 currently allocates the PIO RX/TX header and tail buffers
from stack. The solution here is to use heap-allocated buffers instead.

The current verison of b43 uses "b43_phyop_switch_analog_generic" for A,
G and LP phys.
According to the spec, this is the wrong behaviour for the LP PHY
(see: http://bcm-v4.sipsolutions.net/802.11/PHY/Anacore )
While no problems on the x86 plattform where seen, this leads to a crash
on the BCM5354 SoC (MIPS 32 LE plattform).
This patch implements the analog switch for LP PHYs according to the
specs. It fixes the crash
