efeada2c0a p54: fix iwconfig txpower off
Disabling the receiver logic with P54_FILTER_TYPE_RX_DISABLED is not
supported by all firmwares. However we have an alternative: hibernation.
And the only side effect - so far - is a bit less power consumption. WIN!

This is the same patch for p54spi.
It removes all N800/N810 specific code from p54spi, so the driver can be used on
other architectures, or configurations as well.

c88a768d7e p54usb: fix conflict with recent usb changes
A recent change in the usb core "USB: change interface to usb_lock_device_for_reset()"
conflicts with "p54usb: utilize usb_reset_device for 3887".

Sadly, we have to call usb_reset_device before we can upload the firmware on 3887.
Unless someone figures out how to reliably stop the 3887 so the hardware is still usable
next time we want to start it.

This patch hopefully fixes a mac80211<->p54 interaction problem, which was
described by Larry Finger (ref: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=123009889327707 )

I guess the warning was triggered by pending frames in the receive queue,
while we're doing a band change 5GHz.

c1d34c1dad p54: crypto offload fixes
This patch fixes two small flaws:
 - restore the original TKIP IV if we altered it.
 - reserve & initialize ICV with zeros.
   This is actually only necessary for some obsolete p54usb firmwares.
   But we don't know yet, if all devices are compatible with the new revisions.

51fb80fefe p54usb: Fix to prevent SKB memory allocation errors with 4K page size
On x86_64 architecture with 4K page size and SLUB debugging enabled, stress
testing on p54usb has resulted in skb allocation failures of O(1) and extreme
page fragmentation. Reducing rx_mtu fixes this problem by reducing the size of
all receive skb allocations to be of O(0). This change does not impact
performance in any way.

0a5ec96ad6 p54: remove free_on_tx parameter
This patch simplifies the tx code a bit and will be necessary for
the upcoming stlc45xx<->p54 port.

In detail: we no longer have to tell all back-end drivers directly,
if we want to free a frame right after it was send to the firmware,
or if we do it in the library callback later.

54fdb040b4 p54: move statistic timer update routine into a workqueue
This patch moves a good chunk of code from the former statistic update
timer routine into a workqueue, which is kindly provided by mac80211.

Also as a nice side-effect we can lay the foundation for other
essential housekeeping features we want to do in the future.
e.g:
 - drain the (clogged) tx_queue.
 - initiate bursts.
