Stuck beacon detection is supposed to trigger when 9 consecutive beacons
could not be sent by the hardware. When the driver runs only one active
AP mode interface, it still configures the hardware beacon timer for
4 (ATH_BCBUF) beacon slots slots, which causes stuck beacon detection
to be reset if ath9k_hw_stoptxdma clears the stuck frames between
SWBA intervals.
Fix this by not resetting the missed beacon count for empty slots and
multiplying the threshold not by the maximum number of beacon slots
but by the configured number of beacon interfaces.

Single missed (i.e. not transmitted) beacons in AP mode are not very rare
and not necessarily an indicator of strong interference, so only trigger
noise floor recalibration when multiple consecutive beacons could not
be transmitted.

AP mode beacon timers in ath9k are configured in milliseconds, which breaks
when increasing ATH_BCBUF to 8 instead of 4 (due to rounding errors).
Since the hardware timers are actually configured in microseconds, it's
better to let the driver use that unit directly.

To be able to do that, the beacon interval parameter abuse for passing
certain flags needs to be removed. This is easy to do, because those flags
are completely unnecessary anyway. ATH9K_BEACON_ENA is ignored,
ATH9K_BEACON_RESET_TSF can be replaced with calling ath9k_hw_reset_tsf
from the driver directly.

Most AR9100 devices already have a chainmask of 7 (three antennas), however
on the ones that don't (rx and tx chainmask set to 5), problems with IQ
mismatch calibration have been observed.
This shows up as tx queue hangs (and subsequent hardware resets) if traffic
is sent during this type of calibration.
Forcing the rx chainmask to 7 fixes the calibration issues with no apparent
negative side effects on throughput and stability.

-- API supports up to 8 dedicated AMPDU streams
-- optional packet timestamping and expiration can be enabled.

Also, we make it safe to deinit queues that have not been init'd.

Fine-tuning register write operation and avoid unnecessay
delays for ath9k_htc driver, saves hw reset time which
improves scanning time and also solves one of the following
scenario.

Sometimes the ACK is sent by STA for assoc response is not
seen at AP side. So the AP continues to send retry assoc
responses. At the STA side, since the assoc response was
already forwarded to mac80211, it proceeded to channel change
which in turns does chip reset.

In most of the cases the chip reset was completed before
max retries are reached at AP side. Hence STA can able to ACK
the retried frames again. But in clear environment these retries
are completed within shortspan of time.

Since ath9k_htc consumes more time for hw reset, this latency
is causing dissociation by AP due to max reties are reached.
This issue was originally reported with Cisco Aironet 1250 AP
in HT40 mode in noise free environment.

While testing the performance of different receive interrupt
coalescing settings on a single stream TCP benchmark, I noticed two
very different results. With rx-usecs=50, most of the time a
connection would hit 8280 Mbps but once in a while it would hit
9330 Mbps.

It turns out we are only applying the interrupt coalescing settings
to the first queue and whenever the rx hash would direct us onto
that queue we ran faster.

With this patch applied and rx-usecs=50, I get 9330 Mbps
consistently.

acceleration via ethtool set_flags, always return -EINVAL from that
function. Fix by returning -EINVAL only if requested features do not
match current settings and can not be changed by driver.

Change any driver that define ethtool->set_flags to use
ethtool_invalid_flags() to avoid similar problems in the future
(also on drivers that do not have the problem).
