9546aae086 ath9k: Cleanup beacon stuck processing

f452a63d1e ath9k: Don't reset TSF after scanning automatically
Reset automatically the TSF on re-enabling beaconing after scanning
in IBSS mode causes several problems. For example a new created IBSS
network can't age before an other node has joined, because scans are
done automatically in that case. And several other strange bugs more...

The TSF reset is done manually in the higher level mac80211 code in
the cases were it's needed, so we don't need to do it here.

ca0c7e5101 ath9k: Fix SW-IOMMU bounce buffer starvation
This should fix the SW-IOMMU bounce buffer starvation
seen ok kernel.org bugzilla 11811:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11811

Users on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2 would see something like:

DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 4224 bytes at device 0000:0b:00.0

Unfortunately its only easy to trigger on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2
so far so its difficult to debug (even with swiotlb=force).

We were pci_unmap_single()'ing less bytes than what we called
for with pci_map_single() and as such we were starving
the swiotlb from its 64MB amount of bounce buffers. We remain
consistent and now always use sc->rxbufsize for RX. While at
it we update the beacon DMA maps as well to only use the data
portion of the skb, previous to this we were pci_map_single()'ing
more data for beaconing than what we tell the hardware it can use,
therefore pushing more iotlb abuse.

Still not sure why this is so easily triggerable on
MacBook Pro 3.1, it may be the hardware configuration
tends to use more memory > 3GB mark for DMA.

147583c057 ath9k: Assign seq# when mac80211 requests this
Use TX control flag IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ as a request to update
the seq# for the frames. This will likely require some further cleanup
to get seq# correctly for Beacons vs. other frames and also potentially
for multiple BSSes. Anyway, this is better than ending up sending out
most frames with seq# 0.

a8fff50e4d ath9k: Updated Beacon generation to use mac80211-style
This change moves ath9k to use mac80211-generated Beacon frames instead
of trying to allocate a single Beacon frame and then update it. In
addition, the remaining ath_skb_{map,unmap}_single() wrapper calls are
replaced with direct pci_{map,unmap}_single() calls in beacon.c. Power
save buffering for multicast/broadcast frames is not yet converted to
use mac80211-style (frames to be buffered inside mac80211, not in
driver).
