Johannes Berg 2d0ddec5b2 mac80211: unify config_interface and bss_info_changed
The config_interface method is a little strange, it contains the
BSSID and beacon updates, while bss_info_changed contains most
other BSS information for each interface. This patch removes
config_interface and rolls all the information it previously
passed to drivers into bss_info_changed.

Johannes Berg 57c4d7b4c4 mac80211: clean up beacon interval settings
We currently have two beacon interval configuration knobs:
hw.conf.beacon_int and vif.bss_info.beacon_int. This is
rather confusing, even though the former is used when we
beacon ourselves and the latter when we are associated to
an AP.

This just deprecates the hw.conf.beacon_int setting in favour
of always using vif.bss_info.beacon_int. Since it touches all
the beaconing IBSS code anyway, we can also add support for
the cfg80211 IBSS beacon interval configuration easily.

NOTE: The hw.conf.beacon_int setting is retained for now due
      to drivers still using it -- I couldn't untangle all
      drivers, some are updated in this patch.

Johannes Berg 9e52b0623c ar9170: support HT receive and channel config
This patch adds support for configuring HT40 channels
and receiving HT40 to ar9170. Receiving aggregation
doesn't seem to work right now, so it's not enabled.
Same goes for TX aggregation, but that probably needs
even more work.

With this, I can receive roughly 33 Mbits/sec.

The HT capabilities are a little odd, I tried following
otus here -- in particular having SGI_40 but not SGI_20
is a little weird but afaict that's what otus does.

Johannes Berg d323655372 cfg80211: clean up includes
Trying to separate header files into net/wireless.h and
net/cfg80211.h has been a source of confusion. Remove
net/wireless.h (because there also is the linux/wireless.h)
and subsume everything into net/cfg80211.h -- except the
definitions for regulatory structures which get moved to
a new header net/regulatory.h.

The "new" net/cfg80211.h is now divided into sections.

There are no real changes in this patch but code shuffling
and some very minor documentation fixes.

I have also, to make things reflect reality, put in a
copyright line for Luis to net/regulatory.h since that
is probably exclusively written by him but was formerly
in a file that only had my copyright line.

Luis R. Rodriguez 85efc86eb7 atheros: fix propagation of bad EEPROM on regulatory init
When the EEPROM is not in good condition we cannot continue so
we currently bail out but only ath5k is bailing out properly.
Both ath9k and ar9170 were proceeding and if a user were to run
into this they'd see an obscure panic. Lets propagate the error
as intended and make sure we inform the user by lifting the
error message from debug to a kernel error.

Bob Copeland 26925042b6 ath5k: manipulate rxlink and descriptor address under rxbuf lock
Grabbing an ath5k_buf then dropping the lock is racy because the
referenced descriptor can be obtained in another thread and released
before the buffer is handed to the hardware.  Likewise, manipulating
sc->rxlink without the lock can lead to having multiple self-linked
hardware descriptors.

Steven Luo a89bff9a78 ath9k: reset after PCI FATAL/PERR interrupts
ath9k_hw_getisr() doesn't appear to set anything in the status mask for
PCI FATAL or PERR interrupts (AR_INTR_SYNC_HOST1_FATAL/PERR), which
the open-source HAL seems to do.  This means that the card isn't reset
after these interrupts.

This patch seems to fix a problem where the wireless drops out with an
"ath9k: received PCI FATAL interrupt" in dmesg after some time; the
hardware is an AR5416 in an ASUS WL-500W running 2.6.28.7 (OpenWRT) and
compat-wireless 2009-03-31.
