ath6kl: fix crash when interface is closed but scan is ongoing
When ath6kl module was removed while a scan was ongoing the driver would
crash in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event().
Fix the function not to iterate nodes when the scan is aborted. The nodes
are already freed when the module is being unloaded. This patch removes the
null check entirely as the wmi structure is not accessed anymore during
module unload.
Also fix a bug where the status was checked as a bitfield with '&' operator.
But it's not a bitfield, just a regular error code.

ath6kl: don't force foreground scan when connected
In my setup data transfer stalls when there's data transmission during
scan. After some testing I found out that using background scan
when connected to makes the problem go away. This is more like
a workaround than a proper fix, but as the stall is so severe the
workaround is justified.
With a dual band card this increases scan time when connected from
1.9s to 4.4s. When not connected the scan time is not affected and
is the same 1.9s.

Add ath6kl cleaned up driver
Last May we started working on cleaning up ath6kl driver which is
currently in staging. The work has happened in a separate
ath6kl-cleanup tree:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl-cleanup.git;a=summary
After over 1100 (!) patches we have now reached a state where I would
like to start discussing about pushing the driver to the wireless
trees and replacing the staging driver.
The driver is now a lot smaller and looks like a proper Linux driver.
The size of the driver (measured with simple wc -l) dropped from 49
kLOC to 18 kLOC and the number of the .c and .h files dropped from 107
to 22. Most importantly the number of subdirectories reduced from 26
to zero :)
There are two remaining checkpatch warnings in the driver which we
decided to omit for now:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/debug.c:31:
WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/sdio.c:527:
WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms;
see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt
The driver has endian annotations for all the hardware specific
structures and there are no sparse errors. Unfortunately I don't have
any big endian hardware to test that right now.
We have been testing the driver both on x86 and arm platforms. The
code is also compiled with sparc and parisc cross compilers.
Notable missing features compared to the current staging driver are:
o HCI over SDIO support
o nl80211 testmode
o firmware logging
o suspend support
Testmode, firmware logging and suspend support will be added soon. HCI
over SDIO support will be more difficult as the HCI driver needs to
share code with the wifi driver. This is something we need to research
more.
Also I want to point out the changes I did for signed endian support.
As I wasn't able to find any support for signed endian annotations I
decided to follow what NTFS has done and added my own. Grep for sle16
and sle32, especially from wmi.h.
Various people have been working on the cleanup, the hall of
fame based on number of patches is:

The availability of contexts depends on the
firmware capabilities. Currently only the
presence of the second context depends on it,
but soon P2P support will also be different.
Move the context initialisation code to the
firmware-dependent setup before registering
with mac80211 to make it easier to handle.

iwlagn: bump firmware API for some devices
We're working on improvements for the firmware

iwlagn: separate firmware version warning
We sometimes need to support new firmware API for
a while before we can publish them since testing
them fully takes a long time. We could keep all
the new code private, but that causes plenty of
problems and sometimes we can give a pre-release
version of firmware to people who need to test.
However, when we just bump the API version, the
driver will warn everybody that their firmware is
outdated, when in fact it isn't. (Currently our
case for this doesn't really change the API but
bumping the API version is necessary because the
firmware isn't fully backward compatible)
In order to handle this in the future, add a new
"api_ok" version; only below this will the driver
warn that the uCode is too old.

ath9k: skip ->config_pci_powersave() if PCIe port has ASPM disabled
We receive many bug reports about system hang during suspend/resume
when ath9k driver is in use. Adrian Chadd remarked that this problem
happens on systems that have ASPM disabled.
To do not hit the bug, skip doing ->config_pci_powersave magic if PCIe
downstream port device, which ath9k device is connected to, has ASPM
disabled.
Bug was introduced by:

ath9k: Add support for newer AR9285 chipsets.
Patch should address:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37462
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37082
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697157
however I did not receive confirmation about that, except from Camilo
Mesias, whose system stops hang regularly with this patch (but still
hangs from time to time, but this is probably some other bug).

iwlegacy: set tx power after rxon_assoc
If settings of tx power was deferred during scan or changing channel we
have to setup them during commit rxon. Fix problem on 3945 (4965 already
has this fix).
Optimize code to apply tx settings only when tx power was actually
changed.
