Wireless Broadcom chips can have either their SPROM data stored
on either external SPROM or on-chip OTP memory. Both are accessed
through the same register space. This patch adds support for the
on-chip OTP memory.
Tested with:
BCM43224 OTP and SPROM
BCM4331 SPROM
BCM4313 OTP
This patch is in response to linux-wireless thread [1].

When not SPROM is available a fallback mechanism is used. However,
when that fails the code currently continues. This patch assures
that the bcma_sprom_get() function aborts when that happens.

All other Atheros drivers run the AGC gain calibration and DC offset
calibration only after reset. Running them periodically has caused stability
issues on some (primarily AR2315/2413/5413/5414 based) devices, leading to
messages such as:
ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2462MHz)
ath5k phy0: calibration of channel 11 failed

Some calibration types interfere with tx activity, but the queue stop does
not prevent that. In fact, some calibration types need tx activity to properly
function, so stopping the queues for them is counterproductive.
In some tests this patch has been shown to improve stability, especially in
AP or ad-hoc mode.

My patch "iwlwifi: simplify auth/assoc flow"
caused a serious throughput degradation due
to me forgetting that there are HT settings
in the station table. To restore throughput,
set these parameters correctly when the sta
moves to assoc state.
This patch should probably be merged with
the auth/assoc redesign patch for upstream.
In that case, this paragraph should be added
to the commit log as the third paragraph
(before talking about RXON):
However, as we only get the station HT data
when the station moves into assoc state, we
also need to program this into the device
(and copy it into our database) then.

We currently use the _irqsafe version, but that
isn't recommended together with ieee80211_rx()
as it can cause races. If the device reports
a TX-status and RX in that order then with the
current combination mac80211 might process them
in the other order, which can cause issues with
powersaving clients.
Use ieee80211_tx_status() to avoid this race.
Since we don't want to call it with locks held,
process the frame queues later -- this is fine
as they are on the stack.

In the WoWLAN suspend flow, instead of accessing
registers directly, ask the transport to do the
required setup at the end of suspend. If the
transport doesn't implement this, don't tell the
stack we support WoWLAN.
When the device suspends w/o WoWLAN, mac80211
will have stopped it already, which has already
called iwl_apm_stop() via stop_hw(). Thus, it
isn't necessary to call it again in pcie_suspend
and we can simply do nothing there.
This unifies the regular and WoWLAN suspend.

If we only monitor while associated, the following
can happen:
- we're associated, and the queue stuck check
runs, setting the queue "touch" time to X
- we disassociate, stopping the monitoring,
which leaves the time set to X
- almost 2s later, we associate, and enqueue
a frame
- before the frame is transmitted, we monitor
for stuck queues, and find the time set to
X, although it is now later than X + 2000ms,
so we decide that the queue is stuck and
erroneously restart the device
It happens more with P2P because there we can
go between associated/unassociated frequently.

20 Mbps on a 54 Mbps connection, but quickly drop to 1 Mbps. One of the

before the driver would acknowledge it. Recovery is possible only by
unloading and reloading the driver. This problem was reported at
