290d60891e rt2x00: Fix beacon skew in rt2800pci
rt2800pci is suffering from beacon skew in AP mode. Some powersaving
clients (like VOIP phones) are getting into trouble after some time
when the beacon skew is getting too big.

The ralink legacy drivers contain a function that indicates that the
beacon timer is off by 1us per tbtt. And this function works around
that by reducing the beacon interval for every 64th beacon transmission
by 64us (the smallest possible value). Do the same in rt2800pci.

This allows proper powersaving when rt2800pci is used in AP mode.

9e33a35538 rt2x00: Implement tx power temperature compensation
rt2800 devices should adjust their tx power in accordance with the
eeproms temperature calibration values. Add a new driver callback
gain_calibration that is called every 4 seconds.

The rt2800 gain calibration routine simply runs the tx power
configuration that takes care of calculating the temperature
compensation delta.

We don't need to synchronize the calls to rt2800_config_txpower
as they should all happen from mac80211's single threaded workqueue.

f615e9a38a rt2x00: Fix WMM Queue naming
The Queue names were incorrectly copied from the legacy drivers,
as a result the queue names were inversed to what was expected.

This renames the queues using this mapping:
	QID_AC_BK -> QID_AC_VO (priority 0)
	QID_AC_BE -> QID_AC_VI (priority 1)
	QID_AC_VI -> QID_AC_BE (priority 2)
	QID_AC_VO -> QID_AC_BK (priority 3)

Note that this was a naming problem only, which didn't affect
the assignment of frames to their respective queues.

bc8a979e2d rt2x00: Improve TX status entry validation
The TX_STA_FIFO contains some information for identifying
a outgoing frame, however matching by WCID and ACK status is
not sufficient to 100% identify the macthing queue_entry structure
(containing the SKB buffer) which belongs to the status report.

Within TX_STA_FIFO we have a 4-bit field named PACKETID, which is
currently used to encode the queue id. The queue ID is however
limited to values from 0 to 3, which means 2 bits are sufficient
to encode the value. With the remaining 2 bits we can encode a
partial queue_entry index number. The value of PACKETID is not
allowed to become 0, with the queue ID ranging from 0 to 3, at least
one of the bits for the entry identification must be 1.

That leaves us with 3 possible values we can still encode in the
bits. Altough this doesn't allow 100% accurate matching of the
TX_STA_FIFO queue to a queue_entry structure, it at least improves
the accuracy. This allows us to better detect if we have missed the
TX_STA_FIFO report, which in turn reduces the number of watchdog
warnings regarding the TX status timeout.

8d1331b37d rt2x00: Fix max TX power settings
During initialization each driver reads the default TX power
for each individual channel. However mac80211 only accepts the
maximum value (which is also handled as default value).

As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.

This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.

This fixes bug complaining about limited TX power values like:

0856d9c04a rt2x00: Update comments regarding TXWI and TX_STA_FIFO
Add some comments about the TXWI fields and the TX_STA_FIFO register.
Especially describe the relationship between the TXWI field PACKETID
and the PID field in the TX_STA_FIFO register.

9f926fb57a rt2x00: Use pretbtt irq for fetching beacons on rt2800pci
Updating the beacon on pre tbtt instead of beacondone allows much lower
latency in regard to TIM updates. Hence, use the pre tbtt interrupt for
updating the beacon in rt2800pci (older devices don't provide a pre tbtt
interrupt).

Also, add a new driver flag to indicate if a driver has pre tbtt support
or not and implement the according behavior in rt2x00lib.

7486192206 rt2x00: Convert AGC value from descriptor to RSSI (dBm)
The RSSI values in the RXWI descriptor aren't true RSSI
values. Instead they are more like the AGC values similar
to rt61pci. And as such, it needs the same conversion
before it can be passed to rt2x00lib/mac80211.

This requires the struct queue_entry to be passed to
rt2800_process_rxwi rather then the skb structure which
is contained in the queue_entry. This is required to
obtain the lna_gain information from the rt2x00_dev structure.

This fixes connection problems when using wpa_supplicant
which would try to connect to the worst AP's rather then the
best ones.

5e84600491 rt2x00: Limit txpower by eeprom values
Limit the txpower per rate by the approriate values in the eeprom.
This avoids too high txpower values resulting in bad tx performance.
