AR9003's PAPRD was enabled prematurely, and is causing some
large discrepancies on throughput and network connectivity.
For example downlink (RX) throughput against an AR9280 AP
can vary widlely from 43-73 Mbit/s while disabling this
gets AR9382 (2x2) up to around 93 Mbit/s in a 2.4 GHz HT20 setup.

The conn->sec_level value is supposed to represent the current level of
security that the connection has. However, by assigning to it before
requesting authentication it will have the wrong value during the
authentication procedure. To fix this a pending_sec_level variable is
added which is used to track the desired security level while making
sure that sec_level always represents the current level of security.

When there is an existing connection l2cap_check_security needs to be
called to ensure that the security level of the new socket is fulfilled.
Normally l2cap_do_start takes care of this, but that function doesn't
get called for SOCK_RAW type sockets. This patch adds the necessary
l2cap_check_security call to the appropriate branch in l2cap_do_connect.

The logic for determining the needed auth_type for an L2CAP socket is
rather complicated and has so far been duplicated in
l2cap_check_security as well as l2cap_do_connect. Additionally the
l2cap_check_security code was completely missing the handling of
SOCK_RAW type sockets. This patch creates a unified function for the
evaluation and makes l2cap_do_connect and l2cap_check_security use that
function.

This reverts commit 045309820a. That
commit is wrong for two reasons:
- The conn->sec_level shouldn't be updated without performing
authentication first (as it's supposed to represent the level of
security that the existing connection has)
- A higher auth_type value doesn't mean "more secure" like the commit
seems to assume. E.g. dedicated bonding with MITM protection is 0x03
whereas general bonding without MITM protection is 0x04. hci_conn_auth
already takes care of updating conn->auth_type so hci_connect doesn't
need to do it.

When running as a 4-addr station against an AP that has the 4-addr VLAN
interface and the main 3-addr AP interface bridged together, sometimes
frames originating from the station were looping back from the 3-addr AP
interface, causing the bridge code to emit warnings about receiving frames
with its own source address.
I'm not sure why this is happening yet, but I think it's a good idea to
drop all frames (except 802.1x/EAP frames) that do not match the configured
addressing mode, including 4-address frames sent to a 3-address station.
User test reports indicate that the problem goes away with this patch.

Currently, mac80211 always advertises that it may send
up to 64 subframes in an aggregate. This is fine, since
it's the max, but might as well be set to zero instead
since it doesn't have any information.
However, drivers might have that information, so allow
them to set a variable giving it, which will then be
used. The default of zero will be fine since to the
peer that means we don't know and it will just use its
own limit for the buffer size.

The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.
In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.
Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!

Since baseband hangs are rare, but the hang check function has a high
false positive rate in some situations, we need to add more reliable
indicators.
In AP mode we can use blocked beacon transmissions as an indicator,
they should be rare enough.
In station mode, we can skip the hang check entirely, since a true
hang will trigger beacon loss detection, and mac80211 will rescan,
which leads to a hw reset that will bring the hardware back to life.
To make this more reliable, we need to skip fast channel changes
if the hardware appears to be stuck.
