We get RXORN interrupts when all receive buffers are full. This is not
necessarily a fatal situation. It can also happen when the bus is busy or the
CPU is not fast enough to process all frames.

Older chipsets apparently need a reset to come out of this situration, but on
newer chips we can treat RXORN like RX, as going thru a full reset does more
harm than good, there.

The exact chip revisions which need a reset are unknown - this guess
AR5K_SREV_AR5212 ("venice") is copied from the HAL.

Inspired by openwrt 413-rxorn.patch:
"treat rxorn like rx, reset after rxorn seems to do more harm than good"

There was a confusion in the usage of the bits AR5K_STA_ID1_ACKCTS_6MB and
AR5K_STA_ID1_BASE_RATE_11B. If they are set (1), we will get lower bitrates for
ACK and CTS. Therefore ath5k_hw_set_ack_bitrate_high(ah, false) actually
resulted in high bitrates, which i think is what we want anyways. Cleared the
confusion and added some documentation.

As pointed out by Benoit Papillault, there is a potential
race condition between the host and the hardware in reading
the next link in the transmit descriptor list:

cpu0              hw
                  tx for buf completed
                  raise tx_ok interrupt
process buf
buf->ds_link = 0
                  read buf->ds_link

This change checks txdp before processing a descriptor
(if there are any subsequent descriptors) to see if
hardware moved on.  We'll then process this descriptor on
the next tasklet.

Review spotted a couple of strange invocations to
ieee80211_wake_queues that could potentially cause problems:

 - queues are awakened in the calibration tasklet before
   phy calibration, and then again after calibration

 - queues are awakened inside reset when we're trying to
   drain the ath5k transmit queues, and again after
   reset is completed (in callers to ath5k_reset_wake).

In both cases the first wake is unnecessary, so remove it.

This is an Adaptive Noise Imunity (ANI) implementation for ath5k. I have looked
at both ath9k and HAL sources (they are nearly the same), and even though i
have implemented some things differently, the basic algorithm is practically
the same, for now. I hope that this can serve as a clean start to improve the
algorithm later.

This also adds a possibility to manually control ANI settings, right now only
thru a debugfs file:
  * set lowest sensitivity (=highest noise immunity):
	echo sens-low > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani
  * set highest sensitivity (=lowest noise immunity):
	echo sens-high > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani
  * automatically control immunity (default):
	echo ani-on > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani
  * to see the parameters in use and watch them change:
	cat /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani

Manually setting sensitivity will turn the automatic control off. You can also
control each of the five immunity parameters (noise immunity, spur immunity,
firstep, ofdm weak signal detection, cck weak signal detection) manually thru
the debugfs file.

This is tested on AR5414 and nearly doubles the thruput in a noisy 2GHz band.

also be used to set the antenna mode until we have proper support for that in

Currently, the padding position is based on
ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb(). This is not correct since the HW does
padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the
following position :

- management : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- control    : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- data       : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS
- invalid    : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format

whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is :

- management : 24
- control    : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10
- data       : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order
- invalid    : 24

So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use
4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ...
not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for
debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it
correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding.

Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before
calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor
interfaces.

It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb
based card (netgear WNDA3100) using a frame generator and a monitor
interface for each card.

The beacon sent gating doesn't seem to work with any combination
of flags.  Thus, buffered frames tend to stay buffered forever,
using up tx descriptors.

Instead, use the DBA gating and hold transmission of the buffered
frames until 80% of the beacon interval has elapsed using the ready
time.  This fixes the following error in AP mode:

   ath5k phy0: no further txbuf available, dropping packet

The calibration period is now invoked by triggering a software
interrupt from within the ISR by ath5k_hw_calibration_poll()
instead of via a timer.

However, the calibration interval isn't initialized before
interrupts are enabled, so we can have a situation where an
interrupt occurs before the interval is assigned, so the
interval is actually negative.  As a result, the ISR will
arm a software interrupt to schedule the tasklet, and then
rearm it when the SWI is processed, and so on, leading to a
softlockup at modprobe time.

Move the initialization order around so the calibration interval
is set before interrupts are active.  Another possible fix
is to schedule the tasklet directly from the poll routine,
but I think there are additional plans for the SWI.
