All callers of iwl_setup_rxon_timing() also send
the command right away, so rename the function
to iwl_send_rxon_timing() and move the sending
into it. Also, some callers clear the data, this
can be done always and thus moved in as well.
Finally, there's no reason for the function to
acquire the spinlock, but it should be called
with the mutex held, so assert that.

Applying the filter flags directly as done since

iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly
broke 3945 under some unknown circumstances, as
reported by Alex.
Since I want to keep the direct application of
filter flags on iwlagn, duplicate the code into
both 3945 and agn and remove committing the
RXON that broke things from the 3945 version.

Currently, mac80211 translates the cfg80211
cipher suite selectors into ALG_* values.
That isn't all too useful, and some drivers
benefit from the distinction between WEP40
and WEP104 as well. Therefore, convert it
all to use the cipher suite selectors.

Only the IBSS manager, ie. the station that sent
the IBSS beacon last, should be replying to probe
responses. This requires implementing the mac80211
tx_last_beacon callback, which we can do thanks to
the ucode beacon notification.

Currently the driver will try to protect all frames,
which leads to a lot of odd things like sending an
RTS with a zeroed RA before multicast frames, which
is clearly bogus.
In order to fix all of this, we need to take a step
back and see what we need to achieve:
* we need RTS/CTS protection if requested by
the AP for the BSS, mac80211 tells us this
* in that case, CTS-to-self should only be
enabled when mac80211 tells us
* additionally, as a hardware workaround, on
some devices we have to protect aggregated
frames with RTS
To achieve the first two items, set up the RXON
accordingly and set the protection required flag
in the transmit command when mac80211 requests
protection for the frame.
To achieve the last item, set the rate-control
RTS-requested flag for all stations that we have
aggregation sessions with, and set the protection
required flag when sending aggregated frames (on
those devices where this is required).
Since otherwise bugs can occur, do not allow the
user to override the RTS-for-aggregation setting
from sysfs any more.
Finally, also clean up the way all these flags get
set in the driver and move everything into the
device-specific functions.

Currently, the driver allocates up to 19 skb pointers
for each TFD, of which we have 256 per queue. This
means that for each TX queue, we allocate 19k/38k
(an order 4 or 5 allocation on 32/64 bit respectively)
just for each queue's "txb" array, which contains only
the SKB pointers.
However, due to the way we use these pointers only the
first one can ever be assigned. When the driver was
initially written, the idea was that it could be
passed multiple SKBs for each TFD and attach all
those to implement gather DMA. However, due to
constraints in the userspace API and lack of TCP/IP
level checksumming in the device, this is in fact not
possible. And even if it were, the SKBs would be
chained, and we wouldn't need to keep pointers to
each anyway.
Change this to only keep track of one SKB per TFD,
and thereby reduce memory consumption to just one
pointer per TFD, which is an order 0 allocation per
transmit queue.

This patch removes from drivers/net/ all the unnecessary
return; statements that precede the last closing brace of
void functions.
It does not remove the returns that are immediately
preceded by a label as gcc doesn't like that.
It also does not remove null void functions with return.
Done via:
$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -l "return;\n}" net/ | \
xargs perl -i -e 'local $/ ; while (<>) { s/\n[ \t\n]+return;\n}/\n}/g; print; }'
with some cleanups by hand.

The short preamble setting might change on the
fly, and then we already use the right mac80211
variable. However, in other places we don't,
which is especially wrong in the AP code since
in that case the assoc_capability is invalid.
Also, the IBSS special case is not needed since
"use_short_slot" will be properly cleared, but
the "assoc_capability" might be invalid (which
must be the reason for the special case).

There are a few places where sta_lock is used, but the
station information protected by it is accessed outside
of the lock. Address this in two ways, if the access
won't sleep then just move the access into the lock, if
the access can sleep then copy the needed station
information to the stack to be accessed without risk of
it changing while access in progress.
Additionally, a number of other places access station
station information without holding the sta_lock, fix
those as well.

Since we now store the station ID in each station
struct, many places need not look at the station
table any more since they can just pull the station
ID out of the struct. Remove iwl_get_sta_id() and
use iwl_sta_id() instead as appropriate.
This reduces the amount of code needed to find the
right station significantly, and works since
mac80211 passes the station only after it has been
fully initialised, ie. even if TX races with
station addition it will only be passed to TX once
the addition is complete.

Currently, the broadcast station is managed along
with the interface type, rather than always being
present. That leads to a bug with injection -- it
is currently not possible to inject frames when
the only virtual interface is a monitor, because
in that the required broadcast station is missing.
Additionally, allocating and deallocating the
broadcast station's LQ all the time is wasteful,
and the code to support this is fairly complex.
So this changes completely the way we manage the
broadcast station. Rather than manage it along
with any interface, we now allocate it when we
bring the device up, and remove it again when we
bring the device down. When we bring the device
up, we don't immediately program the broadcast
station into it, instead we just mark it active
and rely on the next restore cycle to upload it
to the device. This works because an unassociated
RXON is always required at least once to set up
device parameters, which implies a reprogramming
of stations into the device.
As we now manage all stations properly, there no
longer is a need for forcing a clearing of them
via iwl_clear_ucode_stations(), which can become
a lot simpler.

Some firmware versions don't behave properly when
passive scanning is requested on radar channels
without enabling active scanning on receiving a
good frame. Work around that issue by asking the
firmware to only enable the active scanning after

that can never be reached during our dwell time.
