Commit 4cf92a3c was submitted as a fix for bug #8686 at bugzilla.kernel.org
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8686). Unfortunately, the fix led to
a new bug, reported by Yoshifuji Hideaki, that prevented association for WEP
encrypted networks that use ifconfig to control the device. This patch effectively
reverts the earlier commit and does a proper fix for bug #8686.

There is a bug in ieee80211softmac that always sets the user rate
to 11Mbs, no matter the capabilities of the device. This bug was
probably beneficial as long as the bcm43xx cards were rate limited;
however, most are now capable of relatively high speeds. This patch
fixes that bug and eliminates an assert that is no longer needed.

Once the cards are capable of full OFDM speeds, the 24 Mbs rate will
be changed to 54 Mbs.

Unconfigured bcm43xx device can hit an assert() during wx_get_rate
queries.  This is because bcm43xx calls ieee80211softmac_start late
(i.e. during open instead of probe).

   bcm43xx_net_open ->
      bcm43xx_init_board ->
         bcm43xx_select_wireless_core ->
            ieee80211softmac_start

Fix is to check that device is running before completing
ieee80211softmac_wx_get_rate.

This patch addresses the "No queue exists" messages commonly seen during
authentication and associating.  These appear due to scheduling multiple
authentication attempts on the same network.  To prevent this, I added a
flag to stop multiple authentication attempts by the association layer.
I also added a check to the wx handler to see if we're connecting to a
different network than the one already in progress.  This scenario was
causing multiple requests on the same network because the network BSSID
was not being updated despite the fact that the ESSID changed.

In net/ieee80211/softmac/ieee80211softmac_wx.c, there is a bug that
prints extended sign information whenever the byte value exceeds
0x7f. The following patch changes the printk to use a u8 cast to limit
the output to 2 digits. This bug was first noticed by Dan Williams
<dcbw@redhat.com>. This patch applies to the current master branch
of the Linville tree.

This patch is the first step towards rate control inside softmac.

The txrates substructure has been extended to provide
different fields for different types of packets (management/data,
unicast/multicast). These fields are updated on association to values
compatible with the access point we are associating to.

Drivers can then use the new ieee80211softmac_suggest_txrate() function
call when deciding which rate to transmit each frame at. This is
immensely useful for ZD1211, and bcm can use it too.

The user can still specify a rate through iwconfig, which is matched
for all transmissions (assuming the rate they have specified is in
the rate set required by the AP).

At a later date, we can incorporate automatic rate management into
the ieee80211softmac_recalc_txrates() function.

This patch also removes the mcast_fallback field. Sam Leffler pointed
out that this field is meaningless, because no driver will ever be
retransmitting mcast frames (they are not acked).

There are some bugs in the current implementation of the SIOCSIWAP wext,
for example that when you do it twice and it fails, it may still try
another access point for some reason. This patch fixes this by introducing
a new flag that tells the association code that the bssid that is in use
was fixed by the user and shouldn't be deviated from.

We don't make much of an attempt to fall back to lower rates, and 54M
just isn't reliable enough for many people. In fact, it's not clear we
even set it to 11M if we're trying to associate with an 802.11b AP.

This patch makes us default to 11M, which ought to work for most people.
When we actually handle dynamic rate adjustment, we can reconsider the
defaults -- but even then, probably it makes as much sense to start at
11M and adjust it upwards as it does to start at 54M and reduce it.
