With sequence number and buffer allocation deferred to when they're needed
for the first time, it becomes much easier to start dropping packets from
the tid queue if necessary, e.g. when latency suddenly increases. This can
lead to some future improvements in buffer management for better latency.

It is only necessary for BAW tracking and moving it to the ath_buf
makes it easier to add further improvements, such as deferring
seqno allocation in the aggregation path.

Use a sk_buff_head instead containing skbs instead of a list_head
containing ath_bufs. This makes it easier to decouple the aggregation
code from the ath_buf struct

Changing the return type and removing the unused argument from
ath_printk reduces code size.
Add an __always_unused struct ath_common * to the macros
that call ath_printk to avoid unused variable warnings.

The return value is never used so make it void.
Reduces object size a tiny bit.

Swatch reports the following warning for main.c:
CHECK drivers/net/wireless/b43/main.c
drivers/net/wireless/b43/main.c +4115 b43_wireless_core_stop(7) warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dev'
After analysis, this is not a bug, but a false warning. Nonetheless,
a cleanup is in order to prevent some future janitor proposing
the wrong fix, as I did in my original patch.

This patch keep track of number of samples that includes
DMA debugs registers, PCU observe, CR, channel noise,
cycle conters, noisefloor history buffer and last N number
of tx and rx descriptor status. These samples are grouped
in table manner which dumping in debgufs.

The recent commit "ath9k: Send legacy rated frames as unaggregated"
introduced a check to ensure that packets with non-MCS rates set in
the rate series will not be aggregated. However, it failed to check
if the rate series is valid before testing the flags, thus breaking
aggregation for normal MCS-only packets if the last series is unset.

For AR9287 v1.3+ chips, MAC runs at 117MHz. But the initvals
IFS parameters are loaded based on 44/88MHz clockrate. So
eifs/usec from ini should not be used for AR9287 v1.3+.
The mentioned values are tested on 2 chain HT40 mode.

Initialize 9us slot time as that is what is used mostly
(for non-ERP cases) and also to be in sync with initvals.
