c0d7c7af0a ath9k: remove superfluous check on changing channel
When we try to change the channel in ath9k its because
either the configuration indicates we *have* changed
channels or HT configuration has changed. In both cases
we want to do a reset. Either way mac80211 will inform us
when we want to actually change the channel so trust those
calls.

Although in the patch it may seem as I am doing more code
changes I am not, all I am doing is removing the initial
branch conditional and shifting the code to the left.

we can depend on the band to get the appropriate values.

We note that we should be using a different clock rate value
for CCK, we can do this in separate patch, currently this is
being disregarded and should only affect when we want to
change the default ACK/CTS timeout or slot time and stuck

9d97f2e55e ath9k: Fix an operator typo in REG_DOMAIN_2GHZ_MASK
Incorrect operator causes the REG_DOMAIN_2GHZ_MASK to be zero which
surely was not the goal of this definition. Mask out the 11a flags
correctly.

b657eade2f ath9k: Fix an operator typo in phy rate validation
This was not supposed to be a bitwise AND operation, but a check of
two separate conditions. Anyway, the old code happened to result in
the same behavior, so this is just changing the code to be easier to
understand and also to keep sparse from warning about dubious
operators.

157ec87684 ath9k: Revert fix to TX status reporting for retries and MCS index
This patch reverts "ath9k: Fix TX status reporting for retries and MCS index"
because that change ended up breaking ath9k rate control. While the
MCS index reporting to mac80211 was indeed fixed by the patch, it did
not take into account that the ath9k rate control algorithm was
updating private tables based on this index and the index comes
through the rate control API call, i.e., based on mac80211 TX status
call. In addition, it looks like the "fix" to remove +1 from TX status
'count' field was not correct based on ieee80211_tx_status()
implementation that counts the total of count values, but starting
from -1, not 0.

The TX status reporting for frames using MCS needs to be fixed
somehow, but it does not look like there is any easy fix for the ath9k
rate control algorithm, so the best option now seems to be to revert the
change and bring it back once the rate control code is cleaned up to
handle this better.

d3a1db1c67 ath9k: Fix incorrect sequence numbering for unaggregated QoS Frame.
This patch fixes an issue with the sequence numbers of unaggregated
QoS frames, because of which the frames are handled in a different order
at the AP and resulted in MLME REPLAYFAILURE.

86060f0d69 ath9k: Fix chainmask handling bug
The chainmasks have to be updated before setting the channel,
since the HW reset routine uses them to set the appropriate registers.
