eedda3670e iwlwifi: remove STATUS_CONF_PENDING in scanning
This patch removes STATUS_CONF_PENDING usage that called from
iwl4965_mac_config internally after scan completed.

It's called anyway from the mac80211 ieee80211_scan_completed():

	if (local->hw_scanning) {
		local->hw_scanning = false;
		if (ieee80211_hw_config(local))
		...

cf3e74c2e4 p54: report appropriate rate and band values for 802.11a
This patch adds the a few lines that went missing in
"p54: 802.11a 5GHz phy support"

Essentially: the rx-code wasn't updated and therefore reported the wrong band,

allow the "four" 802.11b rates...

6f255425ac ath9k: enable ANI to help with noisy environments
This enables Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) on ath9k.
ANI is as algorithm designed to minimize the detrimental
effects of time-varying interferences. This should
help with throughput in noisy environments. To use
ANI we re-enable the MIB interrupt. Since ANI works
on a timer and updates the noise floor we take
advantage of this and also report a non-static noise
floor now to mac80211.

4c99f3e4cf rt2x00: Fix build errors due to modularized rfkill or leds and built-in rt2x00.
Fix by disabling rt2x00 rfkill support when rt2x00 is built-in and rfkill has been modularized, and
a similar scheme for the relationship between leds_class and rt2x00..
Also, give a warning to the end-user when rfkill-/leds-support is disabled this way, so that the
end-user has at least some clues on what is going on.

Proper fixing required some general updates of the Kconfig-structure for the rt2x00 driver, whereby
internal configuration symbols had to be moved to after the user-visible configuration symbols.

All of the above have been fixed. One question, however, remains: In struct
bootrec, the array "data" is treated in many places as native CPU order, but
it may be little-endian everywhere. As far as I can tell, this driver has only
been used with little-endian hardware.

4b7679a561 mac80211: clean up rate control API
Long awaited, hard work. This patch totally cleans up the rate control
API to remove the requirement to include internal headers outside of
net/mac80211/.

There's one internal use in the PID algorithm left for mesh networking,
we'll have to figure out a way to clean that one up and decide how to
do the peer link evaluation, possibly independent of the rate control
algorithm or via new API.

Additionally, ath9k is left using the cross-inclusion hack for now, we
will add new API where necessary to make this work properly, but right
now I'm not expert enough to do it. It's still off better than before.

This patch removes the HT flags from RXON when moving from HT to legacy.
This avoids keeping those flags set and possibly miss configuring firmware.

If we are configured in HT, fat channel: channel 1 above, and move later
to legacy channel 11, we need to clear the FAT channel control flags in
RXON. If we don't, the firmware will understand this as channel 11 above
which is not possible due to regulatory constraints, leading to firmware
crash.

Scan need to be delayed only after association to allow EAPOL
exchange. We don't need the delay for IBSS mode.

fdd1097488 b43: Issue warning when RFKILL_INPUT is not enabled
If the system is misconfigured with CONFIG_RFKILL set but CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT
not set, the built-in radio LEDs will not work. In the current code, no warning
is issued.

9930ccee16 wireless: Read scan flags correctly on x86-64
The SIOCSIWSCAN handler is passed data in an iw_point structure. Some
drivers erronously use an iw_param instead.

On 32 bit architectures the difference isn't noticed as the flags
parameter tends to be the only one used by scan handlers and is at the
same offset.

On 64 bit architectures the pointer in the iw_point structure means the
flag parameter is at different offsets in these structures.

Thanks to Jean Tourrilhes for tracking this down for orinoco, and Pavel
Roskin for confirming the fix and identifying other suspect handlers.

92cccc2cda ath9k: disable MIB interrupts to fix interrupt storm
Enabling the MIB interrupts has proven to cause an
interrupt storm after 7 hours of run. We will make use of the
MIB interrupt once we have ANI supported added so for now
to cure this we disable the interrupt.

The interrupt storm can be seen as follows after 7 hours of run
as reported by  Steven Noonan <steven@uplinklabs.net>:

18:28:38          sum   1106.00
18:28:39          sum   1037.62
18:28:40          sum   1069.00

18:28:42          sum   1155.00
18:28:43          sum   1339.00

18:28:45          sum  17845.45
18:28:46          sum  15285.00

18:28:48          sum  17568.69
18:28:49          sum  17704.04
18:28:50          sum  18566.67
18:28:51          sum  18913.13

at 18:28:44 the MIB interrupt kicked off and caused huge
latency which can be seen even on a video he submitted:
