wireless: Save original maximum regulatory transmission power for the calucation of the local maximum transmit pow
changed the way we calculate chan->max_power as min(chan->max_power,
chan->max_reg_power). That broke rt2x00 (and perhaps some other
drivers) that do not set chan->max_power. It is not so easy to fix this
problem correctly in rt2x00.
According to commit eccc068e8 changelog, change claim only to save
maximum regulatory power - changing setting of chan->max_power was side
effect. This patch restore previous calculations of chan->max_power and
do not touch chan->max_reg_power.

mwifiex driver supports 2x2 chips as well. Hence valid mcs values
are 0 to 15. The check for mcs index is corrected in this patch.
For example: if 40MHz is enabled and mcs index is 11, "iw link"
command would show "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s" without this patch.
Now it shows "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s MCS 11 40Mhz" with the patch.

This patch fixes the problem of unreachable mesh STA from
Distribution System (DS) due to the introduction of previous
patch solving the mesh STA joining from one MBSS to another

When we remove a key, we put a key index which was supposed
to tell the fw that we are actually removing the key. But
instead the fw took that index as a valid index and messed
up the SRAM of the device.
This memory corruption on the device mangled the data of
the SCD. The impact on the user is that SCD queue 2 got
stuck after having removed keys.

iwlwifi: always monitor for stuck queues
If we only monitor while associated, the following
can happen:
- we're associated, and the queue stuck check
runs, setting the queue "touch" time to X
- we disassociate, stopping the monitoring,
which leaves the time set to X
- almost 2s later, we associate, and enqueue
a frame
- before the frame is transmitted, we monitor
for stuck queues, and find the time set to
X, although it is now later than X + 2000ms,
so we decide that the queue is stuck and
erroneously restart the device

On rt2x00_dmastart() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX and on
rt2x00_dmadone() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX_DONE. So entries
between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX are those we currently process in the
hardware. Entries between Q_INDEX and Q_INDEX_DONE are those we can
submit to the hardware.
According to that fix rt2x00usb_kick_queue(), as we need to submit RX
entries that are not processed by the hardware. It worked before only
for empty queue, otherwise was broken.
Note that for TX queues indexes ordering are ok. We need to kick entries
that have filled skb, but was not submitted to the hardware, i.e.
started from Q_INDEX_DONE and have ENTRY_DATA_PENDING bit set.
From practical standpoint this fixes RX queue stall, usually reproducible
in AP mode, like for example reported here:

If association failed due to internal error (e.g. no
supported rates IE), we call ieee80211_destroy_assoc_data()
with assoc=true, while we actually reject the association.
This results in the BSSID not being zeroed out.
After passing assoc=false, we no longer have to call
sta_info_destroy_addr() explicitly. While on it, move
the "associated" message after the assoc_success check.

Commit 3a2923e83c introduced a bug when a corrupt descriptor
is encountered - although the following descriptor is discarded
and returned to the queue for reuse the associated frame is
also returned for processing. This leads to a panic:

When receiving an "individually addressed" action frame, the
receiver is required to return it to the sender. mac80211
gets this wrong as it also returns group addressed (mcast)
frames to the sender. Fix this and update the reference to
the new 802.11 standards version since things were shuffled
around significantly.

When authentication/association timed out, the driver would
complain bitterly, printing the message
ACTIVATE a non DRIVER active station id ... addr ...
The cause turns out to be that when the AP station is added
but we don't associate, the IWL_STA_UCODE_INPROGRESS is set
but never cleared. This then causes iwl_restore_stations()
to attempt to resend it because it uses the flag internally
and uploads even if it didn't set it itself.
To fix this issue and not upload the station again when it
has already been removed by mac80211, clear the flag after
adding it in case we add it only for association.
