ath9k: use AP beacon miss as a trigger for fast recalibration

When beacons get stuck in AP mode, the most likely cause is interference.
Such interference can often go on for a while, and too many consecutive
beacon misses can lead to connected clients getting dropped.

Since connected clients might not be subjected to the same interference
if that happens to be very local, the AP should try to deal with it as
good as it can. One way to do this is to trigger an NF calibration with
automatic baseband update right after the beacon miss. In my tests with
very strong interference, this allowed the AP to continue transmitting
beacons after only 2-3 misses, which allows a normal client to stay
connected.

With some of the newer - really sensitive - chips, the maximum noise
floor limit is very low, which can be problematic during very strong
interference. To avoid an endless loop of stuck beacons -> nfcal ->
periodic calibration -> stuck beacons, the beacon miss event also sets
a flag, which allows the calibration code to bypass the chip specific
maximum NF value. This flag is automatically cleared, as soon as the
first NF median goes back below the limits for all chains.

In my tests, this allowed an ath9k AP to survive very strong interference
(measured NF: -68, or sometimes even higher) without losing connectivity
to its clients. Even under these conditions, I was able to transmit

ath5k: disable ASPM L0s for all cards

Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled.
For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled
by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s
will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1
works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot
currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link
capability.

It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow
drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is
best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for
distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this
issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help
with power consumption for some of these devices.

Example of issues you'd see:

  - On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001
    Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well
    with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic
    with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling
    ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems.

  - On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts
    even though medium is idle.

Credit for root causing and fixing the bug goes to Jussi Kivilinna.
