4c89fe954d ath9k: do not access hw registers in FULL SLEEP
The opmode recalculation is accessing hw registers.
When it is called from remove interface callback and
if there are no vifs present then hw is moved to FULL SLEEP
by radio disable. So use power save wrappers before
accessing hw registers in calculating opmode state.

bf6a0579f6 cfg80211: Fix power save state after interface type change
Currently cfg80211 only configures the PSM state to the driver upon creation
of a new virtual interface, but not after interface type change. The mac80211
on the other hand reinitializes its sdata structure every time the interface
type is changed, losing the PSM configuration.

Hence, if the interface type is changed to, say, ad-hoc and then back to
managed, "iw wlan0 get power_save" will claim that PSM is enabled, when in
fact on mac80211 level it is not.

Fix this in cfg80211 by configuring the PSM state to the driver each time
the interface is brought up instead of just when the interface is created.

e7332a4144 wl1251: fix queue stopping/waking for TX path
The queue stopping/waking functionality was broken in a way that could
cause the TX to stall if the right circumstances are met.

The problem was caused by tx_work, which is scheduled on each TX operation.
If the firmware buffer is full, tx_work does nothing. In combinition with
stopped queues or non-continues transfers, tx_work is never scheduled again.
Moreover the low watermark introduced by
9df86e2e70 never takes effect because of some
old code.

Solve this by scheduling tx_work every time tx_queue is non-empty and
firmware buffer is freed on tx_complete.

This also solves a possible but unlikely case: If less frames than the high
watermark are queued, but more than firmware buffer can hold. This results
in queues staying awake but the only scheduled tx_work doesn't transfer all
frames, so the remaining frames are stuck in the queue until more frames
get queued and tx_work is scheduled again.

This patch fixes a minor issue that two connection responses will be sent

blocked due to security reason and responded with reason "security block",

send another connection complete response. See the following packets

bcf3cfd047 rt2x00: Convert rt2400pci interrupt handling to use tasklets
Fix interrupt processing on slow machines by using individual tasklets
for each different device interrupt. This ensures that while a RX or TX
status tasklet is scheduled only the according device interrupt is
masked and other interrupts such as TBTT can still be processed.

Also, this allows us to use tasklet_hi_schedule for TBTT processing
which is required to not send out beacons with a wrong DTIM count (due
to delayed periodic beacon updates). Furthermore, this improves the
latency between the TBTT and sending out buffered multi- and broadcast
traffic.

As a nice bonus, the interrupt handling overhead should be much lower.

Compile-tested only.
