ath9k_hw: set ANI firstep as absolute values instead of relative

On older chips, the INI value differ in similar ways as cycpwr_thr1, so
convert it to absolute values as well.

Since the ANI algorithm is different here compared to the old
implementation (fewer steps, controlled at a different point in time),
it makes sense to use values similar to what would be applied for newer

ath9k_hw: set ANI cycpwr_thr1 as absolute values instead of relative

The table was copied from the ANI implementation of AR9300. It assumes
that the INI values contain a baseline value that is usable as reference
from which to increase/decrease based on the noise immunity value.

On older chips, the differences are bigger and especially AR5008/AR9001
are configured to much more sensitive values than what is useful.

brcmsmac: fix deadlock on missing firmware

When brcm80211 firmware is not installed networking hangs.
A deadlock happens because we call ieee80211_unregister_hw()
from the .start callback of struct ieee80211_ops. When .start
is called we are under rtnl lock and ieee80211_unregister_hw()
tries to take it again.

Function call stack:

dev_change_flags()
__dev_change_flags()
__dev_open()
ASSERT_RTNL() <-- Assert rtnl lock
ops->ndo_open()

.ndo_open = ieee80211_open,

ieee80211_open()

.start = brcms_ops_start,

brcms_ops_start()
brcms_remove()
ieee80211_unregister_hw()

Introduced by:
commit 25b5632fb35ca61b8ae3eee235edcdc2883f7a5e
("brcmsmac: request firmware in .start() callback")

This patch fixes the bug by removing the call to brcms_remove()

rtl8180: prepare to handle more than two chip types

Currently a "r8185" integer variable is used as a boolean flag to
indicate whether the card is a rtl8185 or not.
Since now the driver supports only rtl8185 and rtl8180 cards, if
"r8185" variable is zero then the card is implicitly assumed to
be a rtl8180.

Now I'm preparing to add support for a third card type (rtl8187se).

This patch changes the "r8185" flag with an enum variable to
explicitly indicate which card type we have.

I'm submitting this this patch now, even if I still have to submit
other patches that not pertain with rtl8187se support, because
IMHO it's not worth rebasing them on the current code, using r8185
flag, and then changing them back again nearly immediately.
BTW if someone feels I really should do this, please tell me..

iwl4965: disable 8K A-MSDU by default

iwlegacy version of this iwlwifi patch:

commit aed7d9ac1836defe033b561f4306e39014ac56fd
Author: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
Date:   Wed Feb 20 11:33:00 2013 +0200

    iwlwifi: disable 8K A-MSDU by default

    Supporting 8K A-MSDU means that we need to allocate order 1
    pages for every Rx packet. Even when there is no traffic.
    This adds stress on the memory manager. The handling of
    compound pages is also less trivial for the memory manager
    and not using them will make the allocation code run faster
    although I didn't really measure.
    Eric also pointed out that having huge buffers with little
    data in them is not very nice towards the TCP stack since
    the truesize of the skb is huge. This doesn't allow TCP
    to have a big Rx window.
    See https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2167711/ for details.

    Note that very few vendors will actually send A-MSDU.
    Disable this feature by default.

rtl818x: Make sure the TX descriptor "valid" flag is written by last

The TX descriptors are consumed by the HW using DMA.
Even if in the driver code the memory write that sets the "valid"
flag appears after all other writes, the CPU may reorder writes,
causing the HW to consider as valid a not-fully-written yet
descriptor.

This may cause HW incorrect behaviour.

This can happen because (AFAIK) the HW may attempt DMA
asynchronously without waiting to be kicked by the following
register write.

This patch adds a write memory barrier to enforce writes ordering.

ath9k_hw: toggle weak signal detection in AP mode on older chipsets

The commit 80b4205b "ath9k: Fix OFDM weak signal detection for AP mode"
prevented weak signal detection changes from taking effect in AP mode on
all chipsets, claiming it is "not allowed".

The main reason for not disabling weak signal detection in AP mode is
that typically beacon RSSI is used to track whether it is needed to
boost range, and this is unavailable in AP mode for obvious reasons.

The problem with not disabling weak signal detection is that older
chipsets are very sensitive to high PHY error counts. When faced with
heavy noise, this can lead to an excessive amount of "Failed to stop
TX DMA" errors in the field.

For AP-like interface, notify cfg80211 with del_sta(),

wil6210: broadcast Tx

Hardware do not support "real" broadcast on the air.
Use method similar to the Directed Multicast Service (DMS) as
described in the 10.23.15.2 "DMS procedures"

This service copies frame and delivers unicast for each associated peer

Do the following: send original frame to 1-st Tx vring, and send copies
to all other active vrings.

As currently hardware/firmware don't support A-MSDU, convert broadcast
frame to unicast instead of wrapping it in A-MSDU
