This reverts commit 21b2d8bd.

As explained by Johannes:
When we
build a probe request frame in the buffer with the SSID, we could
arrive over the limit of 200 bytes. When we build it in the buffer
without the SSID (wildcard) we don't arrive over 200 bytes, but the
ucode still allows direct probe in addition because it has an internal
buffer that is larger when it inserts the SSID...

Recent patch "iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" exposed a memory
corruption problem. When initializing the clip groups the code was
mistakenly using the iwlagn rate count, not the 3945 rate count. This
resulted in more memory being written than was allocated.

"iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" moved the location where the
clip groups are stored and the impact is now severe in that the number of
configured TX queues is modified. Previously the
"temperature" field was overwritten, which did not seem to affect the
operation.

Fix this one instance where wrong rate count was used. I also noticed one
more location where the iwlagn rate count was used to index an iwl3945
array, fix this. I also modified one location that modified the iwlagn rate
count to obtain the iwl3945 rate count ... just use the iwl3945 rate count
directly.

At the wireless summit in Portland we discussed a way of
loading firmware asynchronously from ->probe() before
registration to mac80211, in order to register with the
wireless subsystems with complete information in cases
where firmware is required to know parameters.

This is not yet the case in iwlwifi, but for some new
features we're working on it will be the case since
those will only be supported by new firmware images.

Hence, to start with, convert iwlwifi to load firmware
asynchronously from probe, unbinding the device when
firmware loading fails, and only registering with the
wireless subsystems after firmware has been loaded
successfully.

Future patches will hook into this to register the
new firmware capabilities, depending on the firmware
API version.

This reverts commit 1db5950f.

The goal of "iwlwifi: Monitor and recover the aggregation TX flow failure"
is to first detect when data transmission stalls and then to recover from
this situation with a reset of the radio or the firmware, depending on how
bad the transmission failures are.

Unfortunately we have found that this change causes excessive resets with
its current detection algorithm. It also performs its recovery action when
none is really needed, like when we are not associated.

Revert this change until the issues have been addressed.

The HT extension channel settings require priv->staging_rxon.channel to be
accurate. However, iwl_set_rxon_ht was being called before iwl_set_rxon_channel
and thus HT40 could be broken unless another call to iwl_mac_config came in.

This problem was recently introduced by "iwlwifi: Fix to set correct ht
configuration"

The particular setting in which I noticed this was monitor mode:

	iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
	ifconfig wlan0 up
	./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40-
	#./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40-
	tcpdump -i wlan0 -y IEEE802_11_RADIO

would only catch HT40 packets if I issued the IW command twice.

From visual inspection, iwl_set_rxon_channel does not depend on
iwl_set_rxon_ht, so simply swapping them should be safe and fixes this problem.

This change monitors the tx statistics to detect the drop in throughput.
When the throughput drops, the ratio of the actual_ack_count and the expected_
ack_count also drops.  At the same time, the aggregated ba_timeout (the number
of ba timeout retries) also rises.  If the actual_ack_count/expected_ack_count
ratio is 0 and the number of ba timeout retries rises to 16, no tx packets
(tcp, udp, or ping - icmp) can be delivered.  The driver recovers from this
situation by reseting the uCode firmware.  If the actual_ack_count/expected_
ack_count ratio drops below 50% (but not 0) and the aggregated ba_timeout
retries just exceed 5 (but not 16), then the driver can reset the radio to
bring the throughput up.

To ensure that card is in a sane state during probe we add a reset call.
This change was prompted by users of kdump who was not able to bring up the
wireless driver in the kdump kernel. The problem here was that the primary
kernel, which is not running at the time, left the wireless card up and
running. When the kdump kernel starts it is thus possible to immediately
receive interrupts from firmware after registering interrupt, but without
being ready to deal with interrupts from firmware yet.

There is a problem if an "internal short scan" is in progress when a
mac80211 requested scan arrives. If this new scan request arrives within
the "next_scan_jiffies" period then driver will immediately return success
and complete the scan. The problem here is that the scan has not been
fully initialized at this time (is_internal_short_scan is still set to true
because of the currently running scan), which results in the scan
completion never to be sent to mac80211. At this time also, evan though the
internal short scan is still running the state (is_internal_short_scan)
will be set to false, so when the internal scan does complete then mac80211
will receive a scan completion.

Fix this by checking right away if a scan is in progress when a scan
request arrives from mac80211.

When running directed active scans we currently end up sending both the SSID
probe requests and an additional broadcast one.
This is due to the fact that we always leave the probe request template SSID IE
length to 0. Instead we should set it to the first SSID to scan, and fill the
direct_scan array with the remaining SSIDs to scan for. This way we only send
what we've been asked to: a broadcast probe request when no directed scan is
requested, and directed probe requests otherwise.
