As shown in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/36497,
mac80211 has a bug that allows a call to the TX routine after the queues have
been stopped. This situation will only occur under extreme stress. Although
b43 does not crash when this condition occurs, it does generate a WARN_ON and
also logs a queue overrun message. This patch recognizes b43 is not at fault
and logs a message only when the most verbose debugging mode is enabled. In
the unlikely event that the queue is not stopped when the DMA queue becomes
full, then a warning is issued.
During testing of this patch with one output stream running repeated tcpperf
writes and a second running a flood ping, this routine was entered with
the DMA ring stopped about once per hour. The condition where the DMA queue is
full but the ring has not been stopped has never been seen by me.

Previously, we would store the operating mode at interface up time,
but only update the PCU registers when the next reset happened.
The result is that if beacon configuration (ops->bss_info_changed)
happens before ops->config, we will program the wrong things into
the timer registers. Consequently, beacons won't work in AP mode
until after a reset (channel change, scan etc.).
This is fragile anyway so just program the opmode as soon as
mac80211 gives it to us.

Now the lowest rate in 11na ht40 mode is 13.5Mbps this shortens the
range when compared to 11na ht20 mode where the lowest rate is 6.5Mbps.
To improve the range, make 6.5Mbps as the lowest rate in 11na ht40 mode,
this improves the range by approximately 2dB. 11ng ht40 does not have
this issue as it also has basic rates (1, 2, 5.5 and 11).

When only rt2400pci or rt2500pci is compiled without any of the other
rt2x00 modules, then CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_CRYPTO will not be enabled.
However rt2x00mac_set_tim() implemented within #ifdef CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_CRYPTO
statements while the declaration is placed outside the definition. This results in linking
errors as reporte by Ken.
rt2x00_set_tim() has nothing to do with crypto, and thus should be moved outside
of the #ifdef statements.

* Led blink work
* TX hang monitoring work
* internal wiphy schedular work
* channel change work done for internal wiphy schedular
Since the internal wiphy schedular can end up kicking off some
channel channel change work we should first cancel the wiphy
schedular work and then the channel change work.
The TX hang work can be cancelled second since we're going down
anyway.

Add debugfs file to enable/disable HT40(40MHz) channel support.
By default, 40MHz is supported if AP can support the function.
By echo "1" to "disable_ht40" file, iwlwifi driver will disable the
40MHz support and only allow 20MHz channel.
Because the information exchange happen during association time,
so enable/disable ht40 channel only can be performed when it is not
associated with AP.

There is a small window where the mac80211 changes the IEEE80211_CONF_PS
flag, and then informs the driver about the change. We have a race
condition if we are checking the flag in the same time. Avoid it by
introducing a local variable, and using that instead of checking the
IEEE80211_CONF_PS flag directly.

Several arrays were read before checking whether the index was within
bounds. ARRAY_SIZE() should be used to determine the size of arrays.
rates->rates has an arraysize of 1, so calling get_common_rates()
with a rates_size of MAX_RATES (14) was causing reads out of bounds.
tmp_size can increment at most to (ARRAY_SIZE(lbs_bg_rates) - 1) *
(*rates_size - 1), so that should be the number of elements of tmp[].
A goto can be eliminated: ret was already set upon its declaration.

The current command sending in iwlwifi is a bit of a mess:
1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver
and device data in a single packed structure -- this
is very confusing
2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a
structure by embedding the latter in the former, which
is also rather confusing because it leads to weird
unions and similarly odd constructs
3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands,
even if only 32 end up being used
This patch fixes these things:
1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of
command metadata and device command separately, in
two arrays in each tx queue
2) remove the 'meta' member from iwl_host_cmd and only
put in the required members
3) allocate the cmd/meta arrays separately instead of
embedding them into the txq structure

TI-CT-KILL: power index 5, no Tx, no Rx, HT disabled

Thermal Throttling feature is used to put NIC into low power state when

Two Thermal Throttling Management Methods; this patch introduce the
Legacy Thermal Management:
IWL_TI_0: normal temperature, system power state
IWL_TI_1: high temperature detect, low power state
IWL_TI_2: higher temperature detected, lower power state
IWL_TI_CT_KILL: critical temperature detected, lowest power state
Once get into CT_KILL state, uCode go into sleep, driver will stop all
the active queues, then move to IWL_TI_CT_KILL state; also set up 5
seconds timer to toggle CSR flag, uCode wake up upon CSR flag change,
then measure the temperature.
If temperature is above CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode go backto sleep;
if temperature is below CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode send Card State
Notification response with appropriate CT_KILL status flag, and uCode
remain awake, Driver receive Card State Notification Response and update
the card temperature to the CT_KILL exit threshold.

If advance thermal throttling is used the driver need to pass both

Using different critical temperature threshold for legacy and advance

For 1000, it use advance thermal throttling critical temperature
