The hw_dot_11n_dev_cap reported by firmware hw_spec
has different format than the 11n capabilities.
Hence a lot of SET_ and RESET_ bit operation macros
were used to convert the dev_cap format to 11n
capability format. However the locally defined 11n
ht_cap macros are not necessary as we can use
IEEE80211_HT_CAP_ macros directly.
The 32-bit dev_cap bitmap is added as comment to
explain the mapping between firmware and 11n spec.
Some unused macros and unnecessary adapter variables
are also removed.

The only thing that using crypto_blkcipher with ecb does over just using
arc4 directly is wrapping the encrypt/decrypt function into a for loop,
looping over each individual character.
To be able to do this, it pulls in around 40 kb worth of unnecessary
kernel modules (at least on a MIPS embedded device).
Using arc4 directly not only eliminates those dependencies, it also makes
the code smaller.

The commit "mac80211: reply to directed probes in IBSS" changed ad-hoc
specific code to respond to unicast probe requests, even if
drv_tx_last_beacon returns false, however due to confusion over the
meaning of the IEEE80211_RX_RA_MATCH flag, it also unconditionally
enabled responding to multicast probe requests.
Fix this by explicitly checking for a multicast destination address
instead.

The EEPROM contains a field that can restrict the number of hardware queues,
however this is not only useless (all the known chips contain the same
number of hardware queues), but also potentially dangerous in case of a
misprogrammed EEPROM (could trigger driver crashes), so let's just ignore
it completely.

Indicate an NL80211_CMD_DEL_STATION event when a station entry in
mac80211 is deleted to match with the NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION event
that is used when the entry was added. This is needed, e.g., to allow
user space to remove a peer from RSN IBSS Authenticator state machine
to avoid re-authentication and re-keying delays when the peer is not
reachable anymore.

crypto for group addressed frames in RSN IBSS, but that may be
optimized in the future by extending the key cache design to support

Stuck beacon detection is supposed to trigger when 9 consecutive beacons
could not be sent by the hardware. When the driver runs only one active
AP mode interface, it still configures the hardware beacon timer for
4 (ATH_BCBUF) beacon slots slots, which causes stuck beacon detection
to be reset if ath9k_hw_stoptxdma clears the stuck frames between
SWBA intervals.
Fix this by not resetting the missed beacon count for empty slots and
multiplying the threshold not by the maximum number of beacon slots
but by the configured number of beacon interfaces.
