There are some corner cases where the driver could get stuck with a full
tid queue that is paused, leading to a software tx queue hang.

Since the tx queueing rework, pausing per-tid queues on aggregation
session setup is no longer necessary. The driver will assign sequence
numbers to buffered frames when a new session is established, in order
to get the correct starting sequence number.

mac80211 prevents new frames from entering the queue during setup.

There is no benefit in retaining the legacy rate control module
in the driver codebase.

It is known to be buggy and has less than optimal performance
in real-world environments compared with minstrel. The only
reason that it was kept when we made the switch to minstrel
as default was that it showed higher throughput numbers in a
clean/ideal environment.

This is no longer the case and minstrel can push ath9k to
the same throughput levels. In TCP, with 3-stream cards, more than
295 Mbps can be obtained in open air, with 2-stream cards,
210 Mbps is easily reached. To test performance issues,
instead of using a broken rate control module, it is better
to use the fixed-rate interface provided by mac80211 anyway.

The ath9k RC has not received any bug fixes in years and is
just bit-rotting away - this patch removes it.

Global Transmission Timeout interrupts are generated by
the HW when transmission of a frame fails - this is done
based on the threshold programmed in the AR_GTXTO register.

Currently, even though the interrupt is enabled for all chips,
it is not handled in the driver. This patch handles GTT events
for AR9003 and above chips, checking if the MAC/BB has hung
after successive GTT interrupts crosses a threshold (5).

This can be enabled for the older chips in the AR9002 family once
appropriate HW hang checks are implemented for them.

Use CONFIG_ATH9K_TX99 to properly enclose the tx99 code
and make sure that it is not compiled as part of the driver
when it is not selected. Move the tx99 code to a new file tx99.c
and also add ATH9K_DEBUGFS as a dependency in Kconfig.

This reduces the module size on platforms like OpenWrt where
ATH9K_DEBUGFS is selected, but TX99 might be disabled.

Currently, the PLL is turned off for AR9485 when
switching to a low power state, but AR9485 has an issue
where the card will become unresponsive if left idle
for a long time without any traffic. To fix this,
force the PLL to always be on using a different initval
array, ar9485_1_1_pll_on_cdr_on_clkreq_disable_L1.

This is done for most of the AR9485 based cards
like HB125, WB225 etc. but certain models require the
feature to be turned off. Identify such cards and use
default values for them.

TX99 support enables Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing.
SAR is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency(RF)
absorbed by the body when using a wireless device. The RF
exposure limits used are expressed in the terms of SAR, which is a
measure of the electric and magnetic field strength and power density
for transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz.

Regulatory bodies around the world require that wireless device
be evaluated to meet the RF exposure limits set forth in the
governmental SAR regulations.

In the examples below, for more bit rate options see the iw TX bitrate
setting documentation:
