73e4937d48 ath9k: add support for DFS master mode
These are the remaining knobs in ath9k to support DFS:
* mark AR9280 and AR9580 as DFS tested
* synchronize DFS regulatory domain to reg notifyer
* set required RX filter flags for radar detection
* process radar PHY errors at DFS detector
* notify DFS master on radar detection

DFS support requires CONFIG_ATH9K_DFS_CERTIFIED to be set.

74632d11a1 ath9k_hw: revert chainmask to user configuration after calibration
The commit 'ath9k_hw: fix calibration issues on chainmask that don't
include chain 0' changed the hardware chainmask to the chip chainmask
for the duration of the calibration, but the revert to user
configuration in the reset path runs too early.

That causes some issues with limiting the number of antennas (including
spurious failure in hardware-generated packets).

Fix this by reverting the chainmask after the essential parts of the
calibration that need the workaround, and before NF calibration is run.

3412f2f086 ath9k_hw: improve reset reliability after errors
On many different chips, important aspects of the MAC state are not
fully cleared by a warm reset. This can show up as tx/rx hangs, those
annoying "DMA failed to stop in 10 ms..." messages or other quirks.

On AR933x, the chip can occasionally get stuck in a way that only a
driver unload/reload or a reboot would bring it back to life.

With this patch, a full reset is issued when bringing the chip out of
FULL-SLEEP state (after idle), or if either Rx or Tx was not shut down
properly. This makes the DMA related error messages disappear completely
in my tests on AR933x, and the chip does not get stuck anymore.

838f427955 ath9k_htc: fix signal strength handling issues
The ath9k commit 2ef167557c
(ath9k: fix signal strength reporting issues) fixed an issue where the
reported per-frame signal strength reported to mac80211 was being
overwritten with an internal average. The same issue is also present
in ath9k_htc.
In addition to preventing the driver from overwriting the value, this
commit also ensures that the internal average (which is used for ANI)
only tracks beacons of the AP that we're connected to.

e1a0c6b3a4 mac80211: stop toggling IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40
For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.

To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.

If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.

Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.

While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it
really happens...)

4ab0b0aa57 ath9k: Update spectral scan output data
The sample data received through the spectral scan can be either in big or
little endian byteorder. This information isn't stored in the output file.
Therefore it is not possible for the analyzer software to find the correct byte
order.

It is relative common to get the data from a low end AP in big endian mode and
transfer it to another computer in little endian mode to analyze it. Therefore,
it would be better to store it in network (big endian) byte order.

The extension of the 8 bit bins for each bin to 16 bit is not necessary. This
operation can be done in userspace or on a different machine. Instead the
max_exp defining the amount of shifting required for each bin is exported to
userspace.

The change of the output format requires a change of the type in the sample
tlv to allow the userspace program to correctly detect the bin format.
