This patch adds the name of the adapter to the reply of the read_info

The management messages reserve 249 bytes for the name instead of 248

The EEPROM contains a field that can restrict the number of hardware queues,
however this is not only useless (all the known chips contain the same

it completely.

Stuck beacon detection is supposed to trigger when 9 consecutive beacons
could not be sent by the hardware. When the driver runs only one active
AP mode interface, it still configures the hardware beacon timer for
4 (ATH_BCBUF) beacon slots slots, which causes stuck beacon detection
to be reset if ath9k_hw_stoptxdma clears the stuck frames between
SWBA intervals.
Fix this by not resetting the missed beacon count for empty slots and
multiplying the threshold not by the maximum number of beacon slots
but by the configured number of beacon interfaces.

Single missed (i.e. not transmitted) beacons in AP mode are not very rare
and not necessarily an indicator of strong interference, so only trigger
noise floor recalibration when multiple consecutive beacons could not
be transmitted.

AP mode beacon timers in ath9k are configured in milliseconds, which breaks
when increasing ATH_BCBUF to 8 instead of 4 (due to rounding errors).
Since the hardware timers are actually configured in microseconds, it's
better to let the driver use that unit directly.
To be able to do that, the beacon interval parameter abuse for passing
certain flags needs to be removed. This is easy to do, because those flags
are completely unnecessary anyway. ATH9K_BEACON_ENA is ignored,
ATH9K_BEACON_RESET_TSF can be replaced with calling ath9k_hw_reset_tsf
from the driver directly.

ieee80211_tx_status iterates over all tx rates the driver reports back
in order to
1) mark tx rates as invalid if the driver cannot have tried that rate
2) find the actually used tx rate for the final retransmission
By leaving the for loop when the first invalid rate index is found we
can move the rates_idx assignment after the loop and therefore save
a few assignments and conditionals.

This workaround called ath_txq_schedule whenever there were still pending
frames for a queue, but the queue depth was zero. Because of its its high

this code entirely.

Most AR9100 devices already have a chainmask of 7 (three antennas), however
on the ones that don't (rx and tx chainmask set to 5), problems with IQ
mismatch calibration have been observed.
This shows up as tx queue hangs (and subsequent hardware resets) if traffic
is sent during this type of calibration.
Forcing the rx chainmask to 7 fixes the calibration issues with no apparent
negative side effects on throughput and stability.
