Commit 56d1de0a, "ath5k: clean up
filter flags setting" introduced a regression in monitor mode such
that the promisc filter flag would get lost.

Although we set the promisc flag when it changed, we did not
preserve it across subsequent calls to configure_filter.  This patch
restores the original functionality.

When building a kernel with CONFIG_PM=y but neither suspend nor

ath5k_pci_suspend() and ath5k_pci_resume() not being used:

Depending on CONFIG_PM_SLEEP rather than CONFIG_PM fixes the issue.

Processing an association response could take a bit
of time while we set up the hardware etc. During that
time, the AP might already send a blockack request.
If this happens very quickly on a fairly slow machine,
we can end up processing the blockack request before
the association processing has finished. Since the
blockack processing cannot sleep right now, we also
cannot make it wait in the driver.

As a result, sometimes on slow machines the iwlagn
driver gets totally confused, and no traffic can pass
when the aggregation setup was done before the assoc
setup completed.

I'm working on a proper fix for this, which involves
queuing all blockack category action frames from a
work struct, and also allowing the ampdu_action driver
callback to sleep, which will generally clean up the
code and make things easier.

However, this is a very involved and complex change.
To fix the problem at hand in a way that can also be
backported to stable, I've come up with this patch.
Here, I simply process all aggregation action frames
from the managed interface skb queue, which means
their processing will be serialized with processing
the association response, thereby fixing the problem.

We can wake all queues after a chip reset since everything should be set up and
we are ready to transmit. If we don't do that we might end up starting up with
stopped queues, not beeing able to transmit. (This started to happen after
"ath5k: clean up queue manipulation" but since periodic calibration also
stopped and started the queues this effect was hidden most of the time).

Wrong buffer is checked for bf_tx_aborted field in ath_tx_num_badfrms(),
this may result in a rate scaling with wrong feedback (number
of unacked frames in this case). It is the last one in the chain
of buffers for an aggregate frame that should be checked.

Also it misses the initialization of this field in the buffer,

We should use the same buffer size we set up for DMA also in the hardware
descriptor. Previously we used common->rx_bufsize for setting up the DMA
mapping, but used skb_tailroom(skb) for the size we tell to the hardware in the
descriptor itself. The problem is that skb_tailroom(skb) can give us a larger
value than the size we set up for DMA before. This allows the hardware to write
into memory locations not set up for DMA. In practice this should rarely happen
because all packets should be smaller than the maximum 802.11 packet size.

On the tested platform rx_bufsize is 2528, and we allocated an skb of 2559
bytes length (including padding for cache alignment) but sbk_tailroom() was
2592. Just consistently use rx_bufsize for all RX DMA memory sizes.

Also use the return value of the descriptor setup function.

It is possible for internal scan to race against itself if the device is
not returning the scan results from first requests. What happens in this
case is the cleanup done during the abort of the first internal scan also
cleans up part of the new scan, causing it to access memory it shouldn't.

Here are details:
* First internal scan is triggered and scan command sent to device.
* After seven seconds there is no scan results so the watchdog timer
  triggers a scan abort.
* The scan abort succeeds and a SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION is received for
 failed scan.
* During processing of SCAN_COMPLETE_NOTIFICATION we clear STATUS_SCANNING
  and queue the "scan_completed" work.
** At this time, since the problem that caused the internal scan in first
   place is still present, a new internal scan is triggered.
The behavior at this point is a bit different between 2.6.34 and 2.6.35
since 2.6.35 has a lot of this synchronized. The rest of the race
description will thus be generalized.
** As part of preparing for the scan "is_internal_short_scan" is set to
true.
* At this point the completion work for fist scan is run. As part of this
  there is some locking missing around the "is_internal_short_scan"
  variable and it is set to "false".
** Now the second scan runs and it considers itself a real (not internal0
   scan and thus causes problems with wrong memory being accessed.

The fix is twofold.
* Since "is_internal_short_scan" should be protected by mutex, fix this in
  scan completion work so that changes to it can be serialized.
* Do not queue a new internal scan if one is in progress.

Fix some issues introduced in batch skb dequeuing for input_pkt_queue.
The primary issue it that the queue head must be incremented only
after a packet has been processed, that is only after
__netif_receive_skb has been called.  This is needed for the mechanism
to prevent OOO packet in RFS.  Also when flushing the input_pkt_queue
and process_queue, the process queue should be done first to prevent
OOO packets.

Because the input_pkt_queue has been effectively split into two queues,
the calculation of the tail ptr is no longer correct.  The correct value
would be head+input_pkt_queue->len+process_queue->len.  To avoid
this calculation we added an explict input_queue_tail in softnet_data.
The tail value is simply incremented when queuing to input_pkt_queue.
