rt2800: use BBP_R1 for setting tx power
unfortunately does not work well with RT5390 and RT3290 chips as they
require different temperature compensation TX power settings (TSSI
tuning). Since that commit make wireless connection very unstable on
those chips, restore previous behavior to fix regression. Once we
implement proper TSSI tuning on 5390/3290 we can restore back setting
TX power by BBP_R1 register for those chips.

brcmsmac: remove brcms_bss_cfg->associated
The regression behaviour was described on mailing list.
http://mid.gmane.org/5197DC4F.7030503@broadcom.com:
"On laptop I installed kernel with brcmsmac compiled as
module. It comes up and associates during boot, but after
logging in there is no connectivity. Triggering reassoc
gives connectivity for some time, but after a while (1-2 min)
it stops."
Before the mentioned commit the return value of
the function brcms_c_ps_allowed() was always false,
which is desired behaviour as power-save is not
supported at the moment. Therefor, the function is
changed to just return false instead of simply
reverting the mentioned commit.

Since driver does not use control.rates[0].count, we have never set that
variable. But currently, after rate control API rewrite, this is required
by mac80211. Otherwise legacy rates control does not work and we transmit

Here's a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac QCA98xx devices.
A major difference from ath9k is that there's now a firmware and
that's why we had to implement a new driver.
The wiki page for the driver is:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath10k
The driver has had many authors, they are listed here alphabetically:
Bartosz Markowski <bartosz.markowski@tieto.com>
Janusz Dziedzic <janusz.dziedzic@tieto.com>

The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered,
and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates
ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err()
parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware,
this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation.

The ath9k rate control algorithm has various architectural
issues that make it a poor fit in scenarios like congested
environments etc.
An example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927191
Change the default to minstrel which is more robust in such cases.
The ath9k RC code is left in the driver for now, maybe it can
be removed altogether later on.

Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode)
for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's
connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in
and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is
given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase
in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link
stability.

If hci_dev_open fails we need to ensure that the corresponding
mgmt_set_powered command gets an appropriate response. This patch fixes
the missing response by adding a new mgmt_set_powered_failed function
that's used to indicate a power on failure to mgmt. Since a situation
with the device being rfkilled may require special handling in user
space the patch uses a new dedicated mgmt status code for this.

There are some APs, notably 2G/3G/4G Wifi routers, specifically the
"Onda PN51T", "Vodafone PocketWiFi 2", "ZTE MF60" and a similar
T-Mobile branded device [1] that erroneously don't include all the
needed information in (re)association response frames. Work around
this by assuming the information is the same as it was in the
beacon or probe response and using the data from there instead.

Support for rt2800 device is broken since my
'rt2x00: rt2x00dev: use rt2x00dev->tx->limit'
patch. The changelog of that commit says that the
TX data queue is initialized already when the
rt2x00lib_probe_hw() function is called.
However as Jakub noticed it, this statement is not
correct. The queue->limit field is initialized in
the rt2x00queue_alloc_entries routine and that is
not yet called when rt2x00lib_probe_hw() runs.
Because the value of tx->limit contains zero, the
driver tries to allocate a kernel fifo with zero
size and kfifo_alloc rejects that with -EINVAL.
PCI: Enabling device 0000:01:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)

ieee80211 phy1: rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to initialize hw

Move the data_queue field initialization from
the rt2x00queue_alloc_entries routine into the
rt2x00queue_init function. The initialization
code is not strictly related to the allocation,
and the change ensures that the queue_data fields
can be used in the probe routines.
The patch also introduces a helper function in
order to be able to get the correct data_queue_desc
structure for a given queue. This helper is only
needed temporarily and it will be removed later.
