This masks the PHY TX error interrupt, if debugging is disabled.
Currently we have a bug somewhere which triggers this interrupt once
in a while. (Depends on the network noise/quality). While this is nonfatal,
it scares the hell out of users and we frequently receive bugreports
that incorrectly identify this error message as the reason.
There's another problem with this. The PHY TX error interrupt is protected
with a watchdog that will restart the device if it keeps triggering very often.
This is used to fix interrupt storms from completely broken devices.
However, this watchdog might trigger in completely normal operation.
If the TX capacity of the card is saturated, the likeliness of the watchdog
triggering increases, as more TX errors occur. The current threshold
for the watchdog is 1000 errors in 15 seconds.
This patch adds a workaround for the issue by just enabling the interrupt
if debugging is disabled (by Kconfig or by modparam).
This has the downside that real fatal PHY TX errors are not caught anymore.
But this is nonfatal due to the following reasons:
* If the card is not able to transmit anymore, MLME will notice anyway.
* I did _never_ see a real fatal PHY TX error in a mainline b43 driver.
* It does _not_ result in interrupt storms or something like that.
It will simply result in a stalled card. It can be debugged by enabling
the debugging module parameter.

We will miss rate control update if first A-MPDU of an
aggregation is not Block Acked as we always tell if the
rate control needs to updated through update_rc of first
A-MPDU. This patch does rate control update for the first
A-MPDU which notifies it's tx status (which is not
necessarily the first A-MPDU of an aggregation) to mac80211.

The MIB interrupt fires whenever counters overflow; however without
support for automatic noise immunity, we can sometimes get an interrupt
storm. The get_stats() callback reads the counters anyway so we can
disable the interrupt for now until ANI is implemented. This fixes
the issue reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12647.

AP mode currently sets up the dual stream capability
for all stations. This patch fixes it by checking if the
associated station supports dual stream MCS rates (8-15).
We would disregard any MCS rates above 15, since Atheros
HW supports only 0..15 rates currently, and can't receive
at rates > 15 anyway.

Remove the PCI retry timeout code as that was just taken from ipw2100
due to historical reasons but in reality its a no-op, additionally its
simply incorrect as each PCI devices has its own custom PCI configuration
space on PCI config space >= 0x40. Not to mention we were trying to write
0 to a place that already has 0 on it.
