AMDPDU actions poke hardware for TX operation, as such
we want to turn hardware on for these actions. AMDPU RX operations
do not require hardware on as nothing is done in hardware for
those actions. Without this we cannot guarantee hardware has
been programmed correctly for each AMPDU TX action.

When we remove a IBSS/AP/Mesh interface we stop DMA
but to do this we should ensure hardware is on. Awaken
the device prior to these calls. This should ensure
DMA is stopped upon suspend and plain device removal.

Ensure the device is awake prior to trying to tell hardware
to stop it. Impact of not doing this is we can likely leave
the device in an undefined state likely causing issues with
suspend and resume. This patch ensures harware is where it
should be prior to suspend.

The MIB counters are disabled when doing a chip reset.
Since ANI depends on the MIB registers for its operation, relying
on the contents of said registers during HW reset results in sub-optimal
performance.

Update the beacon queue parameters with best effort queue parameters for
IBSS mode. This reduces the number of beacons generated by ath9k and
ensures a fair beacon distribution when there are multiple IBSS stations.
Also CWmin is quadrupled to achieve the expected percentage of

Software padding is done on the TX path and software unpadding is done on the
RX path. This patch corrects the position where the padding occurs. A specific
function computes the pad position and this function is used in the TX and RX
path. This patch has been tested by generating every possible 802.11 frames
with every possible frame_control field and a varying length. This patch is
useful for analyzing non standard 802.11 frames going over the air

When mac80211 was telling us to go into Powersave we listened
and immediately turned RX off. This meant hardware would not
see the ACKs from the AP we're associated with and hardware
we'd end up retransmiting the null data frame in a loop
helplessly.
Fix this by keeping track of the transmitted nullfunc frames
and only when we are sure the AP has sent back an ACK do we
go ahead and shut RX off.

This patch changes ath9k to pass proper MCS indexes and flags
between the RC and the rest of the driver code.
sc->cur_rate_table remains, as it's used by the RC code internally,
but the rest of the driver code no longer uses it, so a potential
new RC for ath9k would not have to update it.

* Remove a code chunk dealing with operating mode changes.
As noted, all such policy changes are to be done in
add_interface.
* Remove pointless check for empty BSSID.
Also, remove mode checks - mac80211 does all the needed checks.
* Handle enabling/disabling beacon transmission properly.
* Handle beacon interval changes for AP mode.
The original code depended on config_interface() to update
the HW TSF. Since that callback has been removed, handle
it properly.
* Remove unneeded code dealing with key/privacy.
* Set the chainmasks to 1x1 for IBSS when the BSSID is set.

We use the ieee80211_hw for radio enable/disable but the wrong
structure hw was being used in consideration for virtual wiphys
as each virtual wiphy has its own ieee80211_hw struct.
Just pass the hw struct to ensure we use the right one. This should
fix the hw used and passed for radio enable/disable. This includes
the stoping / starting of the software TX queues so mac80211 doesn't
send us data for a specific virtual wiphy. ath9k already takes care
of pausing virtual wiphys and stopping the respective queues on its
own, but this should handle the idle mac80211 conf calls as well.

The way idle configuration detection was implemented as
busted due to the fact that it assumed the ath9k virtual wiphy,
the aphy, would be marked as inactive if it was not used but
it turns out an aphy is always active if its the only wiphy
present. We need to distinguish between aphy activity and
idleness so we now add an idle bool for the aphy and mark
it as such based on the passed IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE
from mac80211.
Previous to all_wiphys_idle would never be true when using
only one device so we never really were using
IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE -- we never turned the radio
off or on upon IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE changes as radio
changes depended on all_wiphys_idle being true either to
turn the radio on or off. Since it was always false for
one device this code was doing nothing.

We disable ASPM when enabling bluetooth coexistance. Disabling
ASPM is a bus specific operation. In the future other buses may
support bluetooth coexistance, an example is USB. To this end
move the current routine which disables ASPM into pci.c, and declare
it the PCI bt_coex_prep() helper. Additionally, since ASPM is
a PCI-Express primitive ensure we don't ever try to muck with ASPM
registers on non PCI-express devices.
This also cleans up hw.c to not include bus specific headers or
utilities.

Keep on btcoex.c only hardware access helpers, move the

the driver core part -- ath_init_btcoex_timer() and the hw
specific part -- ath9k_hw_init_btcoex_hw_info(). This
highlights how ath_gen_timer is part of the driver core, not
hw related, so stuff that into ath_btcoex struct.
The ath9k_hw_btcoex_init() code is now put inline on
ath_init_softc() through a switch to it easier to follow,
since we did that we can now call ath_tx_get_qnum() from
