When NETIF_F_LLTX is set, the atlx driver will use a private lock.
But in recent kernels this implementation seems redundant and
can cause problems where AF_PACKET sees things twice. Since
NETIF_F_LLTX is marked as deprecated and shouldn't be used in
new driver, this patch removes NETIF_F_LLTX and adds a mmiowb
before sending packet. I have tested this driver on a Eee PC.
It works well.

The PHY's aneg is configured and restarted whenever the link is brought up,
e.g. when DHCP is started after the kernel has booted.  This can take the
link down for several seconds while auto-negotiation is redone.

If the advertised features haven't changed, then it shouldn't be necessary
to bring down the link and start auto-negotiation over again.

genphy_config_advert() is enhanced to return 0 when the advertised features
haven't been changed and >0 when they have been.

genphy_config_aneg() then uses this information to not call
genphy_restart_aneg() if there has been no change.

This enables Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) on ath9k.
ANI is as algorithm designed to minimize the detrimental
effects of time-varying interferences. This should
help with throughput in noisy environments. To use
ANI we re-enable the MIB interrupt. Since ANI works
on a timer and updates the noise floor we take
advantage of this and also report a non-static noise
floor now to mac80211.

Doing 'WARN_ON(preempt_count())' was horribly horribly wrong, and would
cause tons of warnings at bootup if PREEMPT was enabled because the
initcalls currently run with the kernel lock, which increments the
preempt count.

At the same time, the warning was also insufficient, since it didn't
check that interrupts were enabled.

The proper debug function to use for something that can sleep and wants
a warning if it's called in the wrong context is 'might_sleep()'.

Fix by disabling rt2x00 rfkill support when rt2x00 is built-in and rfkill has been modularized, and
a similar scheme for the relationship between leds_class and rt2x00..
Also, give a warning to the end-user when rfkill-/leds-support is disabled this way, so that the
end-user has at least some clues on what is going on.

Proper fixing required some general updates of the Kconfig-structure for the rt2x00 driver, whereby
internal configuration symbols had to be moved to after the user-visible configuration symbols.
