Users wishing to tweak tx power want it to happen immediately,
try to respect that. This was tested by Lorenzo by measuring the
received signal strength from an AP with ath9k and the patch.

Changing the tx power on the AP produced these results:

1) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 20 ---> Rx power -37dbm
2) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 15 ---> Rx power -41dbm
3) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 10 ---> Rx power -45dbm
4) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 5 ---> Rx power -51dbm
5) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 0 ---> Rx power -37dbm

The result with 0 is an anomoly and would need to be
addressed through a separate patch.

nl80211_associate() was rejecting (re)association attempts with EBUSY
in some cases where we are currently associated with an AP that uses
different channel from the destination AP. Fix this by passing the
current wdev to rdev_fixed_channel() in the same way that was already
done for join-IBSS and connect commands. This allows the fixedchan
check to skipped for the current wdev and allows the reassociation to
proceed.

With the v10 firmware running on 8688 HW, clearing WPA keys after setting the
WEP key prevents us from being able to associate with WEP APs.
Swapping the calling order for assoc_helper_wpa_keys() and
assoc_helper_wep_keys fixes that issue.

This patch moves the tx cleanup routines out of the critical
interrupt context and into the (previously known as rx) tasklet.

The main goal of this operation is to remove the extensive
usage of spin_lock_irqsaves in the generic p54common library.

The next step would be to modify p54usb to do the
rx processing inside a tasklet (just like usbnet).

The Tx DMA descriptor has two kinds of flags that select RTS/CTS usage.
The first one (global for the frame) selects whether RTS/CTS or
CTS-to-self should be used, the second one enables RTS/CTS or
CTS-to-self usage for an individual multi-rate-retry entry.
Previously the code preparing the descriptor only enabled the global
flag, if the first MRR series selected the local one.
Fix this by enabling the global flag if any of the MRR entries need it.
With this patch, rate control can properly select the use of RTS/CTS
for all MRR entries except the first one, which is the default behavior.

the future.

In an earlier commit,

    mac80211: disable software retry for now

    Pavel Roskin reported a problem that seems to be due to
    software retry of already transmitted frames. It turns
    out that we've never done that correctly, but due to
    some recent changes it now crashes in the TX code. I've
    added a comment in the patch that explains the problem
    better and also points to possible solutions -- which
    I can't implement right now.

I disabled software retry of failed/filtered frames
because it was broken. With the work of the previous
patches, it now becomes fairly easy to re-enable it
by adding a flag indicating that the frame shouldn't
be modified, but still running it through the transmit
handlers to populate the control information.

When mac80211 asks a driver to encrypt a frame, it
must assign the control.hw_key pointer for it to
know which key to use etc. Currently, mac80211 does
this whenever it would software-encrypt a frame.

Change the logic of this code to assign the hw_key
pointer when selecting the key, and later check it
when deciding whether to encrypt the frame or let
it be encrypted by the hardware. This allows us to
later simply skip the encryption function since it
no longer modifies the TX control.

There's no value in setting a flag that will
never be checked after this point, this seems
to be legacy code -- I think previously the
flag was used to check whether to encrypt the
frame or not. Now, however, the flag need not
be set, and setting it actually interferes if
the frame will be processed again later.
