The PAGE_SIZE mask is indeed confusing. Use the exact mask for
this context which has nothing to do with memory pages at all.
Also cast to int since the value to compare with is an int.

The size of the incoming frame is not correctly checked.
The RxMaxSize register (0xDA) does not work as expected and incoming
frames whose size exceeds the MTU actually end spanning multiple
descriptors. The first Rx descriptor contains the size of the whole
frame (or some garbage in its place). The driver does not expect
something above the space allocated to the current skb and crashes
loudly when it issues a skb_put.
The fix contains two parts:
- disable hardware Rx size filtering: so far it only proved to be able
to trigger some new fancy errors;
- drop multi-descriptors frame: as the driver allocates MTU sized Rx
buffers, it provides an adequate filtering.
As a bonus, wrong descriptors were not returned to the asic after their
processing.

Don't attempt to manually set the channel in infrastructure mode, the
firmware doesn't like that much. Also don't attempt to override the
firmware's default channel number for IBSS mode (I believe default
channel can vary by regulatory domain).

Adds an ignore_disconnect module parameter. When enabled, the driver
will continue attempting to send packets even when the firmware has
told us we've lost our link to the AP. On some firmwares this
substantially increases the usable range of the card (presumably
because we have an interrmittent connection, but the firmware is able
to queue the packets for us until we're connected again). On some
other cards, it causes the firmware to fall in a screaming heap :(
(hence, default off).
