f0ed85c6c7 ath9k: Virtual wiphy pause/unpause functionality
Allow virtual wiphys to be paused/unpaused to allow off-channel
operations. Pause will stop all TX queues for the wiphy and move the
STA into power save mode if in managed mode. Unpause wakes up the TX
queues and notifies the AP that the STA woke up if in managed mode.

c52f33d05e ath9k: Add support for multiple secondary virtual wiphys
The new struct ath_softc::sec_wiphy array is used to store information
about virtual wiphys and select which wiphy is used in calls to
mac80211. Each virtual wiphy will be assigned a different MAC address
based on the virtual wiphy index.

6642fe6f5d ath9k: rateCodeToIndex is not used, remove it
Calculation of rate indices from ratecode is done in recv.c
in a straightforward manner for both HT and legacy rates.
This variable is not needed anymore.

7ac47010a4 ath9k: Dont update rate control for every AMPDU
Update the rate control only with the tx status of first
AMPDU of an aggregation. This patch fixes frequent drops

a8efee4f47 ath9k: Use rate_driver_data
Remove the hack using vif, and use rate_driver_data within
skb->cb to hold driver specific rate information.
Setup the rate series in the skb's tx control area and remove
all references to ath9k specific rate series ( using struct ath_rc_series ).

fe7f4a7745 ath9k: Remove ath_rate_softc
Move the hw rate tables to ath_softc, and access them directly.
tx_triglevel_max is global, move it to ath_rate_node.
Now that ath_rate_softc is gone, rate control attach becomes simpler.

d9fe60dea7 802.11: clean up/fix HT support
This patch cleans up a number of things:
 * the unusable definition of the HT capabilities/HT information
   information elements
 * variable names that are hard to understand
 * mac80211: move ieee80211_handle_ht to ht.c and remove the unused
             enable_ht parameter
 * mac80211: fix bug with MCS rate 32 in ieee80211_handle_ht
 * mac80211: fix bug with casting the result of ieee80211_bss_get_ie
             to an information element _contents_ rather than the
             whole element, add size checking (another out-of-bounds
             access bug fixed!)
 * mac80211: remove some unused return values in favour of BUG_ON
             checking
 * a few minor other things
