Two users of ar9170 devices have now reported their cards
have been programmed with a regulatory domain of 0x8000.
This is not a valid regulatory domain as such these users were
unable to use these devices. Since this doesn't seem to be
a device EEPROM corruption we must treat it specially. It
may have been possible the manufacturer intended to use 0x0
as the regulatory domain and that would ultimately yield
to US but since we cannot get confirmationf or this we
default this special case to one of our world regulatory
domains, specifically 0x64.

For AP mode we must tune ANI specially for 2 GHz and
for 5 GHz. We mask in only the flags we want to toggle
on ath9k_hw_ani_control() through the ah->ani_function
bitmask, this will take care of ignoring changes during
ANI reset which we were disabling before.

Pavel Roskin reported some issues with using AP mode without
nohwcrypt=1. Most likely this is similar to the problem fixed
some time ago in ath9k by 3f53dd64f1,
"ath9k: Fix hw crypto configuration for TKIP in AP mode."
That only affects TKIP but it's easiest to just disable that and
WEP too until we get a proper fix in.

This changes the power_level file to adhere to the "one value
per file" sysfs rule. The user will know which power level was
requested as it will be the number just written to this file. It
is thus not necessary to create a new sysfs file for this value.
In addition it fixes a problem where powertop's parsing expects
this value to be the first value in this file without any descriptions.

The issue was, that the locking code in mkiss was assuming it was only
ever being called in process or bh context. Fixed by converting the
involved locking code to use irq-safe locks.
Review of other networking line disciplines shows that 6pack, both sync
and async PPP and STRIP have similar issues. The ppp_async one is the
most interesting one as it sorts out half of the issue as far back as
2004 in commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=2996d8deaeddd01820691a872550dc0cfba0c37d

Atheros top level menu needs a "depends WLAN_80211" to properly indent
within menuconfig and xconfig interfaces.
This is purely a visual issue but it effects all subsequent drivers.
The issue is the top level menu does not include a dependency on
WLAN_80211 so within the tree structure, Atheros is at the same level as
WLAN_80211 but when WLAN_80211 collapsed, the menu disappears along with
all subsequent drives, so it is really a subordinate.

When we reclaim the tx desc, we always assume that the
last desc is a holding desc, which is not true, and skip it.
If the tx queue is drained during channel change, internal
reset and etc, the last descriptor may not be the holding
descriptor and we fail to reclaim them. This results in the
following two issues.
1. Tx stuck - We drop all the frames coming from upper layer
due to shortage in tx desc.
2. Crash - If we fail to reclaim a tx descriptor, we miss to
update the tx BA window with the seq number of the frame
associated to that desc, which, at some point, result in
the following crash due to an assert failure in ath_tx_addto_baw().
This patch fixes these two issues.

This reverts 'ath5k: remove dummy PCI "retry timeout" fix' on the
same theory as in 'ath9k: Fix PCI FATAL interrupts by restoring
RETRY_TIMEOUT disabling'.

An earlier commit, 'ath9k: remove dummy PCI "retry timeout" fix', removed
code that was documented to disable RETRY_TIMEOUT register (PCI reg
0x41) since it was claimed to be a no-op. However, it turns out that
there are some combinations of hosts and ath9k-supported cards for
which this is not a no-op (reg 0x41 has value 0x80, not 0) and this
code (or something similar) is needed. In such cases, the driver may
be next to unusable due to very frequent PCI FATAL interrupts from the
card.
Reverting the earlier commit, i.e., restoring the RETRY_TIMEOUT
disabling, seems to resolve the issue. Since the removal of this code
was not based on any known issue and was purely a cleanup change, the
safest option here is to just revert that commit. Should there be
desire to clean this up in the future, the change will need to be
tested with a more complete coverage of cards and host systems.

The patch adds a mutex to protect the iwm_reset_worker against netdev
ndo_open and ndo_stop because all of them call iwm_up and iwm_down in
the implementation. Note the latter two are already protected by
rtnl. So if iwm_reset_worker is not required in the future, the mutex
can also be removed.

The iwm_if_free() is called before destroy_workqueue for isr_wq on
device remove method. But if there is still some pending work in
the isr_wq, the required data structures are already freed at this
point. This leeds a kernel oops. The patch fixes this problem by
moving iwm_if_free after destroy_workqueue.

We used to do alloc_netdev and register_netdev at the same time in
iwm_if_alloc. But some bus related structures will only be initialized
after iwm_priv is allocated. This caused a race condition that the
netdev might be registered earlier. The patch adds iwm_if_add and
iwm_if_remove so that the bus layer could register the device after
all initialization is done.

We need to check for iwm_priv_init() errors and do proper cleanups.
Otherwise we may fail to catch the create_singlethread_workqueue()
error which will cause a kernel oops when destroy_workqueue() later.

Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/"
directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to
./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file.
And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is
existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation,
Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem.
debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah
hartman. "/sys/kernel/debug/" name is suitable as directory name
of debugfs filesystem.

This patch is from Nick Kossifidis but he forgot to send it. It ensures
that the beacon queue gets started in mesh mode as well, otherwise ath5k
will not beacon in mesh point mode.
At this time, we still need to issue a scan before mesh beaconing will
work but that appears to be a separate problem.
