It was found to be buggy on a variety of chipsets from AR913x to AR928x.
The new version (which was introduced along with AR93xx support) is more
reliable in preventing connectivity dropouts and also fixes MIB interrupt
storm issues.

Beacon RSSI is only meaningful in station mode - in ad-hoc mode it
fluctuates, depending on which peer last sent a beacon, and in other
modes it is not set at all.
Fix places in ANI where the beacon RSSI is used to limit their use
to station mode only.

Commit "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters"
was unifying some code related to overriding OFDM weak signal detection,
but seems to have gotten some of the original intent wrong, probably
because of a misnamed variable.
The beacon RSSI is only valid in station mode, and the main reason to check
it in ath9k_hw_set_ofdm_nil is to make sure that OFDM weak signal detection
stays enabled if the RSSI is low, even when the OFDM noise immunity entry
is supposed to disable it.
The above commit removed the mode checks and changed the code so that
OFDM weak signal detection would only be changed if the rssi is high, which
is wrong for everything but client mode.
This patch restores the old behavior in a simplified form.

I don't know why somebody decided to keep a cached copy of beacon rssi in a

The effect of using a short single-channel scan
to reset the radio is that scanning a channel
that isn't in use needs to re-tune the radio.
This means that the dwell time is irrelevant,
so use a shorter time.
While at it, clean up the code for this a bit.

My commit 26a7ca9a71 ("iwlwifi: refactor EEPROM reading/parsing")
broke the 11n_disable module parameter's BIT(0) to disable all HT
operation (using the other bits to disable aggregation only was
unaffected). Restore this by overriding the SKU when parsing the
EEPROM if the module parameter is set.

When the device is doing an internal radio reset
scan, ROC can be rejected to the supplicant with
busy status which confuses it.
One option would be to queue the ROC and handle
it later, but since the radio reset scan is very
quick we can just wait for it to finish instead.
Also add a warning since we shouldn't run into
the case of having a scan active when requesting
a ROC in any other case since mac80211 will not
scan while ROC or ROC while scanning.

ensure that the PLL-WAR for AR9485/AR9340 is executed only if the STA is
associated (or) IBSS/AP mode had started beaconing. Ideally this WAR
is needed to recover from some rare beacon stuck during stress testing.
Before the STA is associated/IBSS had started beaconing, PLL4(0x1618c)
always seem to have zero even though we had configured PLL3(0x16188) to
query about PLL's locking status. When we keep on polling infinitely PLL4's
8th bit(ie check for PLL locking measurements is done), machine hangs
due to softlockup.
