The stations always chooses 1Mbps for all trasmitting frames,
whenever the AP is configured to lock the supported rates.
As the max phy rate is always set with the 4th from highest phy rate,
this assumption might be wrong if we have less than that. Fix that.

wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() returns -ERESTARTSYS if
interrupted so completion_rc needs to be signed. The current code
probably returns -ETIMEDOUT if we hit this situation, but after this

Check the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ flag from mac80211, then decide how to
set the TX_CMD_FLG_SEQ_CTL_MSK bit. Setting the wrong bit in BAR frame whill
make the firmware to increment the sequence number which is incorrect and

ssb: fix init regression of hostmode PCI core
In ssb_pcicore_fix_sprom_core_index() the sprom on the PCI core is
accessed, but the sprom only exists when the ssb bus is connected over
a PCI bus to the rest of the system and not when the SSB Bus is the
main system bus. SoCs sometimes have a PCI host controller and there
this code will not be executed, but there are some old SoCs with an PCI
controller in client mode around and ssb_pcicore_fix_sprom_core_index()
should not be called on these devices too. The PCI controller on these
devices are unused, but without this fix it results in an Data bus
error when it gets initialized.

Emmanuel noticed that when mac80211 stops the queues
for aggregation that can leave a packet pending. This
packet will be given to the driver after the AMPDU
callback, but as a non-aggregated packet which messes
up the sequence number etc.
I also noticed by looking at the code that if packets
are being processed while we clear the WANT_START bit,
they might see it cleared already and queue up on
tid_tx->pending. If the driver then rejects the new
aggregation session we leak the packet.
Fix both of these issues by changing this code to not
stop the queues at all. Instead, let packets queue up
on the tid_tx->pending queue instead of letting them
get to the driver, and add code to recover properly
in case the driver rejects the session.
(The patch looks large because it has to move two
functions to before their new use.)

Group keys in IBSS or AP mode are not programmed
into the device since we give the key to it with
every TX packet. However, we do need mac80211 to
create the MMIC & PN in all cases. Move the code
around to set the key flags all the time. We set
them even when the key is removed again but that
is obviously harmless.

Johannes' patch for "cfg80211: fix regulatory NULL dereference"
broke user regulaotry hints and it did not address the fact that
last_request was left populated even if the previous regulatory
hint was stale due to the wiphy disappearing.
Fix user reguluatory hints by only bailing out if for those
regulatory hints where a request_wiphy is expected. The stale last_request
considerations are addressed through the previous fixes on last_request
where we reset the last_request to a static world regdom request upon
reset_regdomains(). In this case though we further enhance the effect
by simply restoring reguluatory settings completely.

There is a theoretical race that if hit will trigger
a crash. The race is between when we issue the first
regulatory hint, regulatory_hint_core(), gets processed
by the workqueue and between when the first device
gets registered to the wireless core. This is not easy
to reproduce but it was easy to do so through the
regulatory simulator I have been working on. This
is a port of the fix I implemented there [1].

When a packet is supposed to sent be as an a-MPDU, mac80211 sets
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU to let the driver know. On the other
hand, mac80211 configures the driver for aggregration with the
ampdu_action callback.
There is race between these two mechanisms since the following
scenario can occur when the BA agreement is torn down:
Tx softIRQ drv configuration
========== =================
check OPERATIONAL bit
Set the TX_CTL_AMPDU bit in the packet
clear OPERATIONAL bit
stop Tx AGG
Pass Tx packet to the driver.
In that case the driver would get a packet with TX_CTL_AMPDU set
although it has already been notified that the BA session has been
torn down.
To fix this, we need to synchronize all the Qdisc activity after we
cleared the OPERATIONAL bit. After that step, all the following
packets will be buffered until the driver reports it is ready to get
new packets for this RA / TID. This buffering allows not to run into
another race that would send packets with TX_CTL_AMPDU unset while
the driver hasn't been requested to tear down the BA session yet.
This race occurs in practice and iwlwifi complains with a WARN_ON
when it happens.

If addBA responses comes in just after addba_resp_timer has
expired mac80211 will still accept it and try to open the
aggregation session. This causes drivers to be confused and
in some cases even crash.
This patch fixes the race condition and makes sure that if
addba_resp_timer has expired addBA response is not longer
accepted and we do not try to open half-closed session.

Nikolay noticed (by code review) that mac80211 can
attempt to stop an aggregation session while it is
already being stopped. So to fix it, check whether
stop is already being done and bail out if so.
Also move setting the STOPPING state into the lock
so things are properly atomic.
