Assaf Krauss c46fbefa32 iwlwifi enabling IBSS (Ad-Hoc) mode
This patch enables ibss mode. It consists of two changes upon entering ibss
mode:
1. Removing the redundant line which clears the driver's station table.
   This line creates a discrepancy between the driver and the FW's station
   table. This prevented the generation of beacons.
2. Assigning a default value to priv's assoc_id. Normally given by an AP in
   STA mode, this field is used as an indication for association. Being 0,
   it prevented normal TX flow.
3. Remove a redundant ADD_STA command that cause uCode error.
4. Delay the set_mode until after the uCode is ready.

Note: This is preparatory for the dynamically mapped skb buffers

It is not safe to use the skb->cb area for both the rxd and
skb_frame_desc data at the same time, while they occupy an overlapping
piece of memory. This can lead to hard to trace crashes as pointers
within skb_frame_desc are pointing into nowhere, or the rxd data is
overwritten with non-sense.

Fix it by copying the rxd to a small buffer on the stack.

When rt2x00pci will be switched over to dynamically mapped skb's
instead of statically allocated DMA buffers, it no longer can handle
alignment of RX packets in a copy step, and needs to implement the
same scheme as rt2x00usb does.

In order to make the patch on dynamically mapped skb's smaller,
already centralize the alignment handling into rt2x00lib. This allows
us to move more code in rt2x00lib, and thus remove code duplication
between rt2x00usb and rt2x00pci.

Ivo van Doorn b869767b6f rt2x00: Don't kick TX queue after each frame
TX queues shouldn't be kicked after each frame that is put into the
queue.  This could cause problems during RTS and CTS-to-self as well
as with fragmentation. In all those cases you want all frames to be
send out in a single burst. Off course we shouldn't let the queue fill
up entirely, thus we introduce a 10% threshold which, when reached,
will force the frames to be send out regardless of the frame.

In addition we should prevent queues to become full in such a way
that the tx() handler can fail. Instead of stopping the queue when
it is full, we should stop it when it is below the threshold.
