TX underruns were noticed when RTS/CTS preceded aggregates. This issue was noticed in ar93xx family of chipsets only. The workaround involves padding the RTS or CTS length up to the min packet length of 256 bytes required by the hardware by adding delimiters to the fist descriptor of the aggregate.

The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even DMA issues. The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is undefined for the CAB queue). This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues with queues getting stopped, but not woken again. To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number (not to be confused with the hardware queue number). It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc). To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

This helps align resets / RX enable & disable / TX stop / start. Locking around the PCU is important to ensure the hardware doesn't get stale data when working with DMA'able data. This is part of a series of patches which fix stopping TX DMA completley when requested on the driver.

We have seen several DMA races when we race against stopping and starting the PCU. I suspect that when we cannot stop the PCU we may hit some of these same races so warn against them for now but only when debugging (CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG) is enabled. If you run into this warning and are a developer, please fix the cause of the warning. The potential here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA engine can be confused and start writing to a buffer that was already DMA'd before and at least the kernel assumes is not being accessed by hardware anymore.

Because all of the descriptor data structures are marked as __packed, GCC assumes the worst case wrt. alignment and generates unaligned load/store instructions on MIPS for access to all fields. Since descriptors always have to be 4-byte-aligned, we can just mark the data structures with __aligned(4), which allows GCC to generate much more efficient code.

OProfile showed that ath9k was spending way too much time in ath9k_hw_set_interrupts. Since most of the interrupt mask changes only need to globally enable/disable interrupts, it makes sense to split this part into separate functions, replacing all calls to ath9k_hw_set_interrupts(ah, 0) with ath9k_hw_disable_interrupts(ah). ath9k_hw_set_interrupts(ah, ah->imask) only gets changed to ath9k_hw_enable_interrupts(ah), whenever ah->imask was not changed since the point where interrupts were disabled.
