Flowhandler handle the communication between driver and uCode, when any
uCode error happen, we also like to know what is the status of the
flowhandler; it can help to debug flowhandler related problem.

Also adding debugfs file to dump current value of flowhandler registers.

This is a w/a for a hardware bug. the h/w bug may cause the Rx bit
(bit 15 before shifting it to 31) to clear when using interrupt coalescing.

This does not mean frames are lost - their processing is just delayed until
next interrupt arrives.

For interrupt coalescing timer, the CSR_INT_COALESCING is an 8 bit
register in 32-usec unit, the range can go from 0x00 - 0xFF. set the
range and default timeout value for both calibration mode and operation mode.

When uCode detects number of beacon missed consecutively above the
internal missed beacon threshold (set by uCode), it will reset and
re-tune the radio in order to get out of bad PHY state.

This "num_of_sos_states" counter monitors number of time uCode
encounters this bad condition and has to re-tune the radio.

The WMM AC selection added to the monitor mode selection function
accidentally assigns non-QoS data frames to the same AC as mgmt frames
(VO). This is not serious, but should be fixed anyway. This patch
assigns them to the BE AC instead.

A long time ago, a user reported several crashes due to
data corruptions which are likely the result of a
not-100%-supported, or faulty? PCI bridge.
( http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/53004/ )

This patch fixes entry #1.
"1.  p54p_check_rx_ring - skb_over_panic: Under a ping flood
or just left running for a bit would panic with a skb_over_panic."
As described in the mail: The invalid frame length causes
skb_put to bailout and trigger a crash.

Note:
Simply dropping the frame is problematic, because if its content
contains a tx feedback we would lose some portion of the device
memory space.... And the driver/mac80211 should handle all other
invalid data.

While testing the pid rate controller in mac80211_hwsim, I noticed
that once the controller reached 54 Mbit rates, it would fail to
lower the rate when necessary.  The debug log shows:

1945 186786 pf_sample 50 3534 3577 50

My interpretation is that the fixed point scaling of the target
error value (pf) is incorrect: the error value of 50 compared to
a target of 14 case should result in a scaling value of
(14-50) = -36 * 256 or -9216, but instead it is (14 * 256)-50, or
3534.

Correct this by doing fixed point scaling after subtraction.

Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended protection
mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.

Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.
