ath9k: Remove ATH9K_TX_SW_ABORTED and introduce a bool for this purpose
Wrong buffer is checked for bf_tx_aborted field in ath_tx_num_badfrms(),
this may result in a rate scaling with wrong feedback (number
of unacked frames in this case). It is the last one in the chain
of buffers for an aggregate frame that should be checked.
Also it misses the initialization of this field in the buffer,
this may lead to a situation where we stop the sw retransmission
of failed subframes associated to this buffer.

With VEOL, Beacon transmission in ad-hoc does not currently work.
I believe for larger ad-hoc networks, VEOL is too unreliable, as
it can get beacon transmissions stuck during synchronization.
Use SWBA based beacon trasmission similar to AP mode instead.

The functionality to keep the device awake until it is done with
the rx of any mcast/bcast frames which are pending on AP should
also be added to the hardwares which support auto sleep feature.
This patch fixes frequent failures in ARP resolution when it is
initiated by the other end. Currently auto sleep is enabled only
for ar9003 in ath9k.

We should use the same buffer size we set up for DMA also in the hardware
descriptor. Previously we used common->rx_bufsize for setting up the DMA
mapping, but used skb_tailroom(skb) for the size we tell to the hardware in the
descriptor itself. The problem is that skb_tailroom(skb) can give us a larger
value than the size we set up for DMA before. This allows the hardware to write
into memory locations not set up for DMA. In practice this should rarely happen
because all packets should be smaller than the maximum 802.11 packet size.
On the tested platform rx_bufsize is 2528, and we allocated an skb of 2559
bytes length (including padding for cache alignment) but sbk_tailroom() was
2592. Just consistently use rx_bufsize for all RX DMA memory sizes.
Also use the return value of the descriptor setup function.

We tried to squeeze as much AR9003 support into this kernel
release cycle but there are a few features which are still
being tested and developed. Some of these features are critical
to the stable operation of AR9003 so for now disable AR9003 support
all together. This will get re-enabled once all necessary features
are in place but very likely will not happen for 2.6.35.

The current frame length used by the driver for RX frames is the SPI bus
transfer length. This length has padding bytes, which do not belong to the
WLAN frame.
As there is no other length information in the WLAN frame except the skb
length this problem caused for instance extra ESSID's to be listed at the
end of scan results (IE id 0) with zero length.
Fix the frame length by removing padding.

It is possible for internal scan to race against itself if the device is
not returning the scan results from first requests. What happens in this
case is the cleanup done during the abort of the first internal scan also
cleans up part of the new scan, causing it to access memory it shouldn't.
Here are details:
* First internal scan is triggered and scan command sent to device.
* After seven seconds there is no scan results so the watchdog timer
triggers a scan abort.
* The scan abort succeeds and a SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION is received for
failed scan.
* During processing of SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION we clear STATUS_SCANNING
and queue the "scan_completed" work.
** At this time, since the problem that caused the internal scan in first
place is still present, a new internal scan is triggered.
The behavior at this point is a bit different between 2.6.34 and 2.6.35
since 2.6.35 has a lot of this synchronized. The rest of the race
description will thus be generalized.
** As part of preparing for the scan "is_internal_short_scan" is set to
true.
* At this point the completion work for fist scan is run. As part of this
there is some locking missing around the "is_internal_short_scan"
variable and it is set to "false".
** Now the second scan runs and it considers itself a real (not internal0
scan and thus causes problems with wrong memory being accessed.
The fix is twofold.
* Since "is_internal_short_scan" should be protected by mutex, fix this in
scan completion work so that changes to it can be serialized.
* Do not queue a new internal scan if one is in progress.

Fix some issues introduced in batch skb dequeuing for input_pkt_queue.
The primary issue it that the queue head must be incremented only
after a packet has been processed, that is only after
__netif_receive_skb has been called. This is needed for the mechanism
to prevent OOO packet in RFS. Also when flushing the input_pkt_queue
and process_queue, the process queue should be done first to prevent
OOO packets.
Because the input_pkt_queue has been effectively split into two queues,
the calculation of the tail ptr is no longer correct. The correct value
would be head+input_pkt_queue->len+process_queue->len. To avoid
this calculation we added an explict input_queue_tail in softnet_data.
The tail value is simply incremented when queuing to input_pkt_queue.

This adds support for a new copper device for 82599, device id 0x151c.
This 82599 10GBase-T device uses the PHY's internal temperature sensor
to guard against over-temp conditions. In this scenario the PHY will be
put in a low power mode and link will no longer be able to transmit or
receive any data. When this occurs, the over-temp interrupt is latched
and driver logs this error message. A HW reset or power cycle is
required to clear this status.
