This adds proper RCU annotations to the mesh path
table code, and fixes a number of bugs in the code
that I found while checking the sparse warnings I
got as a result of the annotations.
Some things like the changes in mesh_path_add() or
mesh_pathtbl_init() only serve to shut up sparse,
but other changes like the changes surrounding the
for_each_mesh_entry() macro fix real RCU bugs in
the code.

The locking in mesh_{mpath,mpp}_table_grow not only
has an rcu_read_unlock() missing, it's also racy
(though really only technically since it's invoked
from a single function only) since it obtains the
new size of the table without any locking, so two
invocations of the function could attempt the same
resize.
Additionally, it uses synchronize_rcu() which is
rather expensive and can be avoided trivially here.
Modify the functions to only use the table lock
and use call_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu().

mac80211 uses call_rcu() with functions that are
defined in the module, so it must use rcu_barrier()
at module exit time.
Luckily, this seems to not be a problem in practice
as module unload and unregistration takes a long
time and probably does multiple synchronize_rcu().

As long as no delay is required b/w channel change, scan work
is proceeding without scheduling a new work. In such case, we
can not abort scan work when the card was unplugged. This patch
completes the scanning immediately whenever the device goes down.

Drivers shouldn't attempt to advertise support
for more than one IBSS interface since mac80211
doesn't support that. Check and return an error
from ieee80211_register_hw() in that case.

We free name "dev" for something generic (like dev abstraction layer).
Additionaly code is cleaner now, especially magic dev->dev-dev chains.

Mesh paths are deleted via mesh_path_del() which properly
deactivates the timer associated to a mesh path. But if paths were
deleted by mesh_table_free(..., true) timers would not be deactivated.
This fixes this case.

Currently the devices that have already stripped IEEE 802.11
header from the AMSDU SKB can not use ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s
routine. This patch enhances ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s() API by
changing mandatory removing of IEEE 802.11 header from AMSDU

some times the rssi control descriptor for the main antenna may be
negative like that of alternate antenna, hence before incrementing
packet counts/rssi of main/alternate antenna make sure both main_rssi
and alt_rssi are positive only. this avoids wrong selection of antenna
due to diversity

AR9285 belongs to diversity group 0 and AR9485 belongs to diversity
group 2. Based on the diversity group we configure certain antenna
diversity paramaters such as lna1_lna2_delta and fast diversity
bias values. For AR9485 we have some gain table parameter which
selects the gain table 0/1 for main and alternate antenna
