These changes include:
* For PAPRD, the TXRF3.capdiv5G, TXRF3.rdiv5G and TXRF3.rdiv2G
are set to 0x0, the TXRF6.capdiv2G is set to 0x2 for all
three chains.
* The d2cas5G/d3cas5G/d4cas5G was updated to 4/4/4 in lowest_ob_db
Tx gain table.
* To improve DPPM, three parameters were updated (Released from Madhan):
1. RANGE_OSDAC is set to 0x1 for 2G, 0x0 for 5G
2. offsetC1 is set to 0xc
3. inv_clk320_adc is set to 0x1
* To reduce PHY error(from spur), cycpwr_thr1 and cycpwr_thr1_ext
are increased to 0x8 at 2G.
* The 2G Rx gain tables are updated with mixer gain setting 3,1,0.
The new checksums yield:

Jumbo frames are not supported, and if they are seen it is likely
a bogus frame so just silently discard them instead of warning on
them all time. Also, instead of dropping them immediately though
move the check *after* we check for all sort of frame errors. This
should enable us to discard these frames if the hardware picks
other bogus items first. Lets see if we still get those jumbo
counters increasing still with this.
Jumbo frames would happen if we tell hardware we can support
a small 802.11 chunks of DMA'd frame, hardware would split RX'd
frames into parts and we'd have to reconstruct them in software.
This is done with USB due to the bulk size but with ath5k we
already provide a good limit to hardware and this should not be
happening.
This is reported quite often and if it fills the logs then this
needs to be addressed and to avoid spurious reports.

ath9k_common (used by ath9k and ath9k_htc) trusts the frames
blessed by hardware as OK are infact correct even if the rate
seen by the driver is unrecognized. ath9k_common just treats
these frames in mac80211 as frames as frames under 1 mbps rate.
It seems this might not be the best thing to do as other parts of
the frame might not be valid so just drop these frames for now.

This has no real functional change, this just moves the setting the
the mac80211 rate index into ath9k_process_rate(). This allows us
to eventually make ath9k_process_rate() return a negative value

have been ignored.

The current way of managing beaconing in ad-hoc
mode has a subtle race - the beacon obtained from mac80211
is freed in the SWBA handler rather than the TX
completion routine. But transmission of beacons goes
through the normal SKB queue maintained in hif_usb,
leading to a situation where __skb_dequeue() in the TX
completion handler goes kaput.
Fix this by simply getting a beacon from mac80211 for
every SWBA and free it in its completion routine.

Atheros hardware supports receiving frames that span multiple
descriptors and buffers. In this case, the rx status of every
descriptor except for the last one is invalid and may contain random
data. Because the driver does not support this, it needs to drop such
frames.

This patch removes the incomplete AMPDU implementation in ar9170usb.
The code in question is:
* too big and complex (more than 550 SLOC.)
This is enough to qualify for a new separate code file!
* unbalanced quantity & quality
over-engineered areas like:
* xmit scheduling and queuing frames for multiple HT peers
* redundant frame sorting
are confronted by gaping holes:
* accurate transmission feedback
* firmware error-handling and device reset
* HT rate control algorithm
* error-prone
Since its inclusion, hardly anything was done to fix
any of the outlined flaws from the initial commit message.
=> This also indicates poor maintainability.
* relies heavily on several spinlocks.
As a result of this shortcomings, the code is slow and does not
even support the most basic 11n requirement: HT station mode.
Therefore, I request to purge my heap of **** from the kernel:
"ar9170: implement transmit aggregation".
The next item on the agenda is: (re-)start from scratch with
an adequate design to accommodate the special requirements
and features of the available frameworks and tools.

Avoid that by waiting for the firmware loading to finish

If bit 29 is set, MAC H/W can attempt to decrypt the received aggregate
with WEP or TKIP, eventhough the received frame may be a CRC failed
corrupted frame. If this bit is set, H/W obeys key type in keycache.
If it is not set and if the key type in keycache is neither open nor
AES, H/W forces key type to be open. But bit 29 should be set to 1
for AsyncFIFO feature to encrypt/decrypt the aggregate with WEP or TKIP.

TX interrupt mitigation reduces the number of interrupts
by addressing several interrupt actions (AR_IMR_TXOK,
AR_IMR_TXDESC) all in one interrupt so when enabling
it discard setting the other interrupts.
Without this TX interrupt mitigation would actually
increase the number of interrupts two-fold. We still
leave TX interrupt mitigation disabled as it is still
being tested.
