7bf7a71e0f ath9k: Add new BT profile info A2DP_Voice
When the BT connection is initiated by headset, it's possible that headset
requests to make one A2DP and one Voice connection over the same link.
BT firmware will send a new profile A2DP_Voice in this case. So WLAN
has to take care of this new profile for tuning BTCOEX parameters.

6f37ff96d3 ath9k_hw: Fix max rx rate drop for AR9565
Whenever i_coff of IQ calibration is too high, AR9565 drops max

2097fdd7eb ath9k_hw: Fix frequent BT rx recovery
While resuming from S3, BT host issues HCI reset command and it
causes BT firmware to busy with security key calculation. At this
movement, WLAN detects MCI hardware error of MCI_CONT_INFO_TIMEOUT
and then it starts the recovery sequence repeatedly. Too many
recovery sequences would exhaust the BT kernel message pool. This
patch imposes a duration between consecutive BT recovery procedure.
Thus it solves BT firmware panic issue reported in AR9565.

e82cb03f5a ath9k: adjust WLAN and BT concurrent transmission
The simulataneous transmission of both WLAN and BT might cause
increase in power levels. To avoid regulatory violation, WLAN tx
power will be adjusted according to BT power index based on avaliability
of BT scheduling messages. WLAN tx power reduction might affect its
performance. So WLAN tx power is only be lowered when the signal strength
is good enough. Otherwise concurrent tx will be disabled and WLAN uses
it default power levels. Also concurrent tx is disabled whenever WLAN is
moving to off-channel which might be used by BT.

WLAN's idleness can be estimated by taking into account of the

e0509d3bdd carl9170: fix spurious transmissions in sniffer mode
Several people have complained about an unusual
and undocumented feature of the AR9170 hardware:

In siffer mode, the hardware generates spurious
ACK frames for every received frame... even
broadcasts.

The reason for this malfunction is unknown:
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=134517238506033>
But there's a workaround: Instead of the special
sniffer mode, the hardware will be put into
station mode and all rx filters are disabled.

8c6e30936a ath9k: fix stale pointers potentially causing access to free'd skbs
bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU
in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down
an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal
transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the
old pointer being dereferenced again later.

This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages.

84caf8005b ath6kl: Recover from fw crash
Re-initialize the target when fw crash is reported.
This would make the device functional again after
target crash. During the target re-initialization
it is made sure that target is not bugged with data/cmd
request, ar->state ATH6KL_STATE_RECOVERY is used
for this purpose.

ede615d2f0 ath6kl: Refactor ath6kl_init_hw_start() and ath6kl_init_hw_stop()
So that these functions will be used to re-initialize the fw
upon detecting fw error. This refactoring moves ar->state
setting out of core stop/start functionality.

83685091ac ath6kl: fix link speed when using sgi
The MSB of rate index from FW is used for sgi. But the ath6kl_wmi_get_rate
doesn't handle it. The access to wmi_rate_tbl array may be out of range
if sgi is 1. This may cause the return value of ath6kl_wmi_get_rate()
function is incorrect link rate. We add sgi adjustment to avoid such case.
