ACPI has smart batteries, which work in units of energy and measure
rate of (dis)charge as power, thus it is not appropriate to export it
as a current_now. Current_now will still be exported to allow

Many buggy BIOSes don't export the brightness levels when machine
is on AC/Battery in the _BCL method.
Reformat the _BCL package for these laptops:
now the elements in device->brightness->levels[] are like:
levels[0]: brightness level when on AC power.
levels[1]: brightness level when on Battery power.
levels[2]: supported brightness level 1.
levels[3]: supported brightness level 2.
...
levels[n]: supported brightness level n-1.
levels[n + 1]: supported brightness level n.
So if there are n supported brightness levels on this laptop,
we will have n+2 entries in device->brightnes->levels[].
level[0] and level[1] are invalid on the laptops that don't
export the brightness levels on AC/Battery.
Fortunately, we never use these two values at all, even for the
valid ones.

Some BIOSes report very high frequency transition latency which are plainly
wrong on CPus that can change frequency using native MSR interface.
One such system is IBM T42 (2327-8ZU) as reported by Owen Taylor and
Rik van Riel.
cpufreq_ondemand driver uses this transition latency to come up with a
reasonable sampling interval to sample CPU usage and with such high
latency value, ondemand sampling interval ends up being very high
(0.5 sec, in this particular case), resulting in performance impact due to
slow response to increasing frequency.
Fix it by capping-off the transition latency to 20uS for native MSR based
frequency transitions.

This patch removes all the virtual A-MPDU-queue bookkeeping from
mac80211. Curiously, iwlwifi already does its own bookkeeping, so
it doesn't require much changes except where it needs to handle
starting and stopping the queues in mac80211.
To handle the queue stop/wake properly, we rewrite the software
queue number for aggregation frames and internally to iwlwifi keep
track of the queues that map into the same AC queue, and only talk
to mac80211 about the AC queue. The implementation requires calling
two new functions, iwl_stop_queue and iwl_wake_queue instead of the
mac80211 counterparts.

Instead of stopping the entire AC queue when enabling aggregation
(which was only done for hardware with aggregation queues) buffer
the packets for each station, and release them to the pending skb
queue once aggregation is turned on successfully.
We get a little more code, but it becomes conceptually simpler and
we can remove the entire virtual queue mechanism from mac80211 in
a follow-up patch.
This changes how mac80211 behaves towards drivers that support
aggregation but have no hardware queues -- those drivers will now
not be handed packets while the aggregation session is being
established, but only after it has been fully established.

We just found a bug in zd1211rw where it would reject
packets in the ->tx() method but leave them modified,
which would cause retransmit attempts with completely
bogus skbs, eventually leading to a panic due to not
having enough headroom in those.
This patch adds a sanity check to mac80211 to catch
such driver mistakes; in this case we warn and drop
the skb.

When TX aggregation becomes operational, we do a number of steps:
1) print a debug message
2) wake the virtual queue
3) notify the driver
Unfortunately, 1) and 3) are only done if the driver is first to
reply to the aggregation request, it is, however, possible that the
remote station replies before the driver! Thus, unify the code for
this and call the new function ieee80211_agg_tx_operational in both
places where TX aggregation can become operational.
Additionally, rename the driver notification from
IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_RESUME to IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL.

Internally, mac80211 requires the skb's queue mapping to be set
to the AC queue, not the virtual A-MPDU queue. This is not done
correctly currently, this patch moves the code down to directly
before the driver is invoked and adds a comment that it will be
moved into the driver later.
Since this requires __ieee80211_tx() to have the sta pointer,
make sure to provide it in ieee80211_tx_pending().

Fragmentation currently uses an allocated array to store the
fragment skbs, and then keeps track of which have been sent
and which are still pending etc. This is rather complicated;
make it simpler by just chaining the fragments into skb->next
and removing from that list when sent. Also simplifies all
code that needs to touch fragments, since it now only needs
to walk the skb->next list.
This is a prerequisite for fixing the stored packet code,
which I need to do for proper aggregation packet storing.

Luis reports that there's a circular locking dependency;
this is because cfg80211_dev_rename() will acquire the
cfg80211_mutex while the device mutex is held, while
this normally is done the other way around. The solution
is to open-code the device-getting in nl80211_set_wiphy
and require holding the mutex around cfg80211_dev_rename
rather than acquiring it within.
Also fix a bug -- rtnl locking is expected by drivers so
we need to provide it.
