When the antenna configuration has changed we should reset
the antenna RSSI value. Otherwise the value will be influenced
by the previous configuration quality which in turn will affect
the antenna diversity.

rt73usb and rt2500usb used in_atomic to determine
if a configuration step should be rescheduled or not.
Since in_atomic() is not a valid method to determine
if sleeping is allowed we should fix the way this is handled
by adding a new flag to rt2x00.
In addition mark LED class support for the drivers broken
since that also uses the broken in_atomic() method but
so far no solution exists to have LED triggers work only
in scheduled context.

The basic rate which is configured in the register
should not match all supported rates, but only the _basic_ rates.
Fix this by adding a new flag to the rt2x00_rate structure
and whenever the mode is changed, loop over all available rates
for that band to get the basic rate mask.

Rename config_preamble() to config_erp() and cleanup argument
list by putting it all into a single structure.
This will make the function more meaningful and easier to
expand later. This second option is mostly intended to make
the patch "mac80211: proper short-slot handling" from Johannes Berg
easier to apply for rt2x00.

rt2500usb initialized the SIFS and EIFS without using the
values coming from rt2x000lib. After this is fixed HWMODE_{A,B,G}
is now unused and can be removed in favour of the ieee80211_band
enumeration which could still be usefull later.

Recent changes to the rate structure registration broke rt2x00,
the hw_value was reduced from 32bits to 16bits while rt2x00 used
the full 32bits. However the way rt2x00 used the value was inflexible
and needed to be changed anyway.
This patch creates a array containing information for each rate,
the hw_value passed to mac80211 is the index value for that array
including a field to indicate if short preamble should be enabled.

This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate
registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The
old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k)
are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations
can be done.
Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the
IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be
unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants
to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty
much required for travelling.
Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA
mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added
to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be
empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to
the BSS conf stuff.
I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit
power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

Rework the interface handling. Delete the interface structure
and replace it with a per-interface structure. This changes the
way rt2x00 handles the active interface drastically.
Copy ieee80211_bss_conf to the this rt2x00_intf structure during
the bss_info_changed() callback function. This will allow us to
reference it later, and removes the requirement for the device flag
SHORT_PREAMBLE flag which is interface specific.
Drivers receive the option to give the maximum number of virtual
interfaces the device can handle. Virtual interface support:
rt2400pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt2500pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt2500usb: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt61pci: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces
rt73usb: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces
At the moment none of the drivers support AP and STA interfaces
simultaneously, this is a hardware limitation so future support
will be very unlikely.
Each interface structure receives its dedicated beacon entry,
with this we can easily work with beaconing while multiple master
mode interfaces are currently active.
The configuration handlers for the MAC, BSSID and type are
often called together since they all belong to the interface
configuration. Merge the 3 configuration calls and cleanup
the API between rt2x00lib and the drivers. While we are cleaning
up the interface configuration anyway, we might as well clean up
the configuration handler as well.

When rssi_a > rssi_b is true and the current antenna
was already antenna A, then rt2x00 incorrectly jumped
to antenna B.
Also don't configure the antenna when there has been
no change in the antenna setup.

This adds 2 new states which both are used to toggle
the RX. These new states are required for usage
inside the link tuner thread, because the normal
RX toggling will stop the link tuner thread.
While it is possible that the link tuner thread itself
is the caller of the RX toggle (when using software
antenna diversity).

In the config() handler, make sure that we do configure an antenna if the
current active antenna is uninitialized. Furthermore, don't overwrite the
active antenna with bogus values if we didn't touch the antenna setup.

When mac80211 indicates that the default antenna setup
should be used _and_ that this default setup is SW_DIVERSITY.
This requires sampling and storing the RSSI per antenna
and check once every 2 seconds to determine if the RSSI
has changed significantly. Once this is the case we should sample
the other antenna for a short period and evaluate if
we need to swap antenna or not.

mac80211 has 3 values for the antenna setup:
0 - default
1 - use antenna 1
2 - use antenna 2
This means that rt2x00 should store the default value
from the EEPROM somwhere and use that when mac80211 indicates
that the antenna setup is 0.
This also implies that rt2x00 should no longer write the
hw->config.antenna_sel_* values based on the EEPROM input.
This also adds the basis in rt2x00lib for correct software
diversity handling. By default rt2x00lib will now configure
antenna B instead of hardware diversity.

Reorganize configuration handling by creating a extra
structure which contains precalculated values based
on the mac80211 values which are usefull for all
individual drivers.
This also fixes the preamble configuration problem,
up untill now preamble was never configured since
by default the rate->val value was used when changing
the mode.
Now rate->val will only be used to set the basic rate mask.
The preamble configuration will now be done correctly
through the erp_ie_changed callback function.

Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor
interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and
they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc.
This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list()
callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes
filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*).
For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much
as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags.
Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g.
FIF_ALLMULTI.
Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that
have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast
frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or
when the mc_count value is positive.
At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about
monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to
implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new
change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop()
ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any
add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after
any remove_interface().
The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid
to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING
is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed
and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced.
This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that
supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID
to all-ones.
