9352c19f63 mac80211: extend get_tkip_seq to all keys
Extend the function to read the TKIP IV32/IV16 to read the IV/PN for
all ciphers in order to allow drivers with full hardware crypto to
properly support this.

df1404650c mac80211: remove support for IFF_PROMISC
This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted,
frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with
the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the
monitor mode support should be used instead.

Removing it removes a lot of corner cases.

4ed20bebf5 cfg80211: remove "channel" from survey names
All of the survey data is (currently) per channel anyway,
so having the word "channel" in the name does nothing. In
the next patch I'll introduce global data to the survey,
where the word "channel" is actually confusing.

8b2c98243e mac80211: clarify interface iteration and make it configurable
During hardware restart, all interfaces are iterated even
though they haven't been re-added to the driver, document
this behaviour. The same also happens during resume, which
is even more confusing since all of the interfaces were
previously removed from the driver. Make this optional so
drivers relying on the current behaviour can still use it,
but to let drivers that don't want this behaviour disable
it.

Also convert all API users, keeping the old semantics
except in hwsim, where the new normal ones are desired.

e548c49e6d mac80211: add key flag for management keys
Mark keys that might be used to receive management
frames so drivers can fall back on software crypto
for them if they don't support hardware offload.
As the new flag is only set correctly for RX keys
and the existing IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT flag
can only affect TX, also rename the latter to
IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT_TX.

7dd6753f6d ath5k: fix spin_lock_irqsave/spin_lock_bh nesting in mesh
Lockdep found an inconsistent lock state when joining a mesh with
ath5k.  The problem is that ath5k takes the lock for its beacon state,
ah->block, with spin_lock_irqsave(), while mesh internally takes the
sync_offset_lock with spin_lock_bh() in mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt(),
which in turn is called under ah->block.

This could deadlock if the beacon tasklet was run on the processor
that held the beacon lock during the do_softirq() in spin_unlock_bh().

We probably shouldn't hold the lock around the callbacks, but the
easiest fix is to switch to spin_lock_bh for ah->block: it doesn't
need interrupts disabled anyway as the data in question is only accessed
in softirq or process context.

Fixes the following lockdep warning:

da473b61ad ath5k: allow AP and mesh mode to operate simultaneously
This patch allows the possibility of having the mesh point and AP to be operated
simultaneously in one single radio. Previously, mesh point fails to generate the
mesh beacon if virtual AP is created for the same radio.

931be260ed ath5k: clean up base.h and its use
Remove unnecessary includes from base.h.  Add includes to other files as
necessary.  Don't include base.h unless needed.

Move declarations for functions in base.c from ath5k.h to base.h.

Use a better named define to protect base.h against double inclusion.

rxbufsize is unused, ah_phy is write-only and referenced by unused
macros.

In struct ath5k_vif, lladdr is write-only.

e0d687bd9d ath5k: merge ath5k_hw and ath5k_softc
Both ath5k_hw and ath5k_softc represent one instance of the hardware.
This duplication is historical and is not needed anymore.

Keep the name "ath5k_hw" for the merged structure and "ah" for the
variable pointing to it.  "ath5k_hw" is shorter than "ath5k_softc", more
descriptive and more widely used.

Put the combined structure to ath5k.h where the old ath5k_softc used to
be. Move some code from base.h to ath5k.h as needed.

Remove memory allocation for struct ath5k_hw and the corresponding error
handling.  Merge iobase and ah_iobase fields.

using multiple STA interfaces associated with multiple APs.
This patch ensures the NIC is always in PROMISC mode if there
are more than 1 stations associated.

7bb4568372 mac80211: make tx() operation return void
The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).

Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.

Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

76a9f6fd9a ath5k: Fix short and long retry configuration
The register definition for retry configuration on AR5212 was wrong, and simply
copied over from AR5210. Update the register definitions from the documentation.

Let the short and long retries be configured from mac80211 and use the standard
values of 7 and 4 by default. Also we need to make sure we don't export more
retries than we are configured for to mac80211 (and the rate module) in
hw->max_rate_tries.

Also clean up the code by removing unused defines and variables and drop the
different values for "station retries" - if these need to be different it can
be handled tru ah_retry_long/short.
