Explicitly enable the usage of fallback rates for

Note that for txdone reporting, only rt61pci is capable of
reporting the fallback rates, for USB it is not possible
to determine the number of retries. However the device will
use the fallback rates, so it might still help in the performance.

In some corner cases the reported tx rates/retries didn't match the really
used ones.
The hardware lowers the tx rate on each consecutive retry by 1 (but won't
fall back from MCS to legacy rates) _until_ it reaches the lowest one.
In case the frame wasn't sent succesful the number of retries is 7 and if
a rate index <7 was used the previous code reported negative rate indexes
which were then ignored by the rate control algorithm and mac80211.
Instead, report the remaining number of retries to have happened with
the lowest rate (index 0). This should give the rate control algorithm
slightly more accurate information about the used tx rates/retries.

Set up max_rates and max_rate_tries with suitable values even if we do not
support the whole functionality.
As rt2800 has a global fallback table we cannot specify more then one tx rate
per frame but since the hw will try several different rates (based on the
fallback table) we should still initialize max_rates to the maximum number of
rates we are going to try. Otherwise mac80211 will truncate our reported tx
rates and the rc algortihm will end up with incorrect data choosing unsuitable
rates for tx.
This improves throughput on rt2800 devices considerable.

Currently rt2800pci will read TX_STA_FIFO until the previously read value
matches the current value. However, it is obvious that TX_STA_FIFO only
contains values that can easily be the same for multiple consecutive frames
(especially when communicating with only one other STA). Hence, we often
ended up with reading only the first entry and ignoring the rest.
One result was that when the TX_STA_FIFO contained multiple entires, only
the first one was read and properly handled while the others remained in the
tx queue.
Thus, drop this check but introduce a maximum number of reads. All legacy
drivers use the size of the tx ring as limit but state that the TX_STA_FIFO
has only 16 entries. So, let's just stick with the tx ring size for now.

ath9k tries to prevent WMM queue tx buffer starvation caused by
traffic on different queues by limiting the number of pending frames
in a tx queue (tracked in the ath_buf structure). This had a leak
issue, because the a skb can be reassigned to a different ath_buf
in the tx path, causing the pending frame counter to become inaccurate.
To fix this, track the number of frames in an array in the softc,
using the mac80211 queue mapping as index.

AR9003 has been tested with the new ANI implementation
and so ANI can now be enabled for that family.

This adds support for ANI for AR9003. The implementation for
ANI for AR9003 is slightly different than the one used for
the older chipset families. It can technically be used for
the older families as well but this is not yet fully tested
so we only enable the new ANI for the AR5008, AR9001 and AR9002
families with a module parameter, force_new_ani.
The old ANI implementation is left intact.
Details of the new ANI implemention:
* ANI adjustment logic is now table driven so that each ANI level
setting is parameterized. This makes adjustments much more
deterministic than the old procedure based logic and allows
adjustments to be made incrementally to several parameters per
level.
* ANI register settings are now relative to INI values; so ANI
param zero level == INI value. Appropriate floor and ceiling
values are obeyed when adjustments are combined with INI values.
* ANI processing is done once per second rather that every 100ms.
The poll interval is now a set upon hardware initialization and
can be picked up by the core driver.
* OFDM error and CCK error processing are made in a round robin
fashion rather than allowing all OFDM adjustments to be made
before CCK adjustments.
* ANI adjusts MRC CCK off in the presence of high CCK errors
* When adjusting spur immunity (SI) and OFDM weak signal detection,
ANI now sets register values for the extension channel too
* When adjusting FIR step (ST), ANI now sets register for FIR step
low too
* FIR step adjustments now allow for an extra level of immunity for
extremely noisy environments
* The old Noise immunity setting (NI), which changes coarse low, size
desired, etc have been removed. Changing these settings could affect
up RIFS RX as well.
* CCK weak signal adjustment is no longer used
* ANI no longer enables phy error interrupts; in all cases phy hw
counting registers are used instead
* The phy error count (overflow) interrupts are also no longer used
for ANI adjustments. All ANI adjustments are made via the polling
routine and no adjustments are possible in the ISR context anymore
* A history settings buffer is now correctly used for each channel;
channel settings are initialized with the defaults but later
changes are restored when returning back to that channel
* When scanning, ANI is disabled settings are returned to (INI) defaults.
* OFDM phy error thresholds are now 400 & 1000 (errors/second units) for
low/high water marks, providing increased stability/hysteresis when
changing levels.
* Similarly CCK phy error thresholds are now 300 & 600 (errors/second)

The new ANI implementation will use this to skip ANI
calibration upon a scan. This cannot be ported to the
older ANI implementation unless default ANI values from
the ANI are also used upon a scan. This is essentially
what one of the things thenew ANI does.
