acf3c1a592 ath5k: move beacon processing to a tasklet
We currently send beacons directly from the interrupt routine.  This
can hold up interrupt processing in beaconing modes and makes the
ISR somewhat more complex.  Move it to a tasklet like rx and tx.

b5f03956c5 ath5k: use spin_lock_irqsave for beacon lock
ath5k_reset can be called from process context, which in turn can
call ath5k_beacon_config which takes the sc->block spinlock.  Since
it can also be taken in hard irq context, use spin_lock_irqsave
everywhere.  This fixes a potential deadlock in adhoc mode.

0b6f582bd3 ath5k: don't mask off interrupt bits
Since interrupts are already masked by the hardware, there's no need to
discard interrupt bits in the ISR itself.  Also, in ath5k_beacon_config
we mask off a couple of bits without locking, so doing this mask in
software can lead to unhandled beacon timer and beacon miss interrupts.

6f3b414aca ath5k: Update gain_F calibration code and add documentation
* Update and cleanup rf gain optimization code

 * Add comments and refferences to docs and use sane function names

 * Use only step index on ath5k_gain, no need to have a pointer to
   the current step since we can determine te step from it's index,
   this also allows us to put all other structs on rfgain.h and cleanup
   ath5k.h a little

 * No need for ah_rfgain variable, we use ah_gain.g_state for everything

 * Tested on RF2112B chip but gain_F calibration is not yet done
   (we will finish this on the next patch where we'll rewrite rf-buffer
   handling)

 * Use initial rf gain settings for 2316 and 2317 SoCs introduced on a previous patch

 It seems big but it's mostly cleanup, very few functional changes have been made on phy.c

33a31826b4 ath5k: PHY code cleanup
* Clean up initial rf buffer settings (new file rfbufer.h) and introduce a
   new way to access specific rf registers (will use it later)

 * Clean up initial rf gain settings by moving them on a new file (rfgain.h)

 * Update initial rf buffer settings and initial rf gain settings from HALs.
   This breaks things for now because our current dumps come from pre-configured

81094888bf ath5k: discard 11g caps if reported by an ar5211 eeprom
At least one ar5211 card (GIGABYTE GN-WLMA101, 168c:0012 subsystem
1458:e800) reports itself as 11g capable which seems to be a bug in the
eeprom. initvals.c assumes that ar5211 is only 11b capable and thus refuses
to initialize this card. Hence this patch changes the probing for 11g
capabilities to discard 11g capabilities for ar5211 cards which allows this
specific card to work fine in 11b and 11a modes.

  does it as a technique to handle 0.5 dbm steps but i believe it's not

6714349046 ath5k: clean up ath5k_hw_set_key
Status: O

With the addition of TKIP (and soon CCMP), key->alg is a more useful
guide to key type than the key length.

This patch cleans up key type assignment in ath5k_hw_set_key by
extracting it into its own function.  It also replaces the separate
memcpy() calls for extracting key material into the hardware format
with a loop that works regardless of key size.

Finally, the patch removes support for WEP-128 since it is a
non-standard key length that mac80211 also doesn't use.

based on the code of the Atheros Legacy HAL release.

0e149cf5a1 ath5k: set mac address in add_interface
Configure the mac address in add_interface and clear it in
remove_interface so that users can change the mac address
to something other than the one in the eeprom.  Also avoid
setting it at attach time so that we won't ack packets
until fully set up.
