d89197c7f3 Revert "ath9k: Fix STA disconnect issue due to received MIC failed bcast frames"
This reverts commit 916448e77f.

"As far as I can tell, either of these patches breaks multiple VIF
scenarios.  I'm not sure exactly why, but I had to revert this to
get any of my interfaces to associate."

f67e07eb3d ath9k_hw: fix more bitfield related endian issues
A few LNA control related flags were also specified as a bitfields, however
for some strange reason they were written in big-endian order this time.

e702ba18f2 ath9k_hw: fix endian issues with CTLs on AR9003
Parsing data using bitfields is messy, because it makes endian handling
much harder. AR9002 and earlier got it right, AR9003 got it wrong.
This might lead to either using too high or too low tx power values,
depending on frequency and eeprom settings.
Fix it by getting rid of the CTL related bitfields entirely and use
masks instead.

9306990a65 ath9k: Fix bug in reading input gpio state for ar9003
The register which gives input gpio state is 0x404c for ar9003,
currently 0x4048 is wrongly used. This will disable RF and make
it unusable on some of AR9003.

916448e77f ath9k: Fix STA disconnect issue due to received MIC failed bcast frames
AR_RxKeyIdxValid will not be set for bcast/mcast frames and so relying
this status for MIC failed frames is buggy.

Due to this, MIC failure events for broadcast frames are not sent to
supplicant resulted in AP disconnecting the STA.

Able to pass Wifi Test case 5.2.18 with this fix.

d47844a014 ath9k: fix timeout on stopping rx dma
It seems that using ath9k_hw_stoppcurecv to stop rx dma is not enough.
When it's time to stop DMA, the PCU is still busy, so the rx enable
bit never clears.
Using ath9k_hw_abortpcurecv helps with getting rx stopped much faster,
with this change, I cannot reproduce the rx stop related WARN_ON anymore.

f119da3015 ath9k_hw: Fix AR9280 surprise removal during frequent idle on/off
Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset
is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when
reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers
and cause some hw issue on AR9280.

This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write
on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave()
during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can
never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only
after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot.

This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the
simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1]
when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high
possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state
by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail
and the kernel would output:

This is currently only reproducible with some HB92 (Half Mini-PCIE)
cards but the fix applies to all AR9280 cards. This patch fixes this
issue by setting bit 22 during radio disable.

This patch has fixes for all kernels that has ath9k.

b79b33c4ba ath9k: rename rxflushlock to pcu_lock
The real way to lock RX is to contend on the PCU
and reset, this will be fixed in the next patch but for
now just do the renames so that the next patch which changes
the locking order is crystal clear.

This is part of a series that will help resolve the bug:

7583c550c3 ath9k: add locking for starting the PCU on RX
There was some locking for starting some parts of
RX but not for starting the PCU. Include this otherwise
we can content against stopping the PCU.

This can potentially lead to races against different
buffers on the PCU which can lead to to the DMA RX
engine writing to buffers which are already freed.

1e45028528 ath9k: add locking for stopping RX
ath9k locks for starting RX but not for stopping RX. We could
potentially run into a situation where tried to stop RX
but immediately started RX. This allows for races on the
the RX engine deciding what buffer we last left off on
and could potentially cause ath9k to DMA into already
free'd memory or in the worst case at a later time to
already given memory to other drivers.

Fix this by locking stopping RX.

fac6b6a065 ath9k: resume aggregation immediately after a hardware reset
Since aggregation is usually triggered by tx completion, a hardware
reset (because of beacon stuck, tx hang or baseband hang) can
significantly delay the transmission of the next AMPDU (until the next
tx completion event).
Fix this by rescheduling aggregation after such a reset.

0299a50abb ath9k: fix handling of rate control probe frames
The ath9k aggregation code was already checking the rate control probe flag
to prevent starting an aggregate frame with a sampling rate. What was missing
was closing an aggregate before adding a probing frame to it.
Without that, rate control cannot have precise control over probing, which
delays using faster rates when the channel conditions improve.

0dfa6dbb73 ath9k_hw: Fix TX carrier leakage for IEEE compliance on AR9003 2.2
This updates the initvals for the AR9003 2.2 chipsets. The initvals
are the initial register values we use for our registers upon hardware
reset. This synchs up the initvals to match what our latest recommendation
from our systems engineering team.

The description of changes in this update:

        Improves ability to support very strong Rx conditions.
        Enhances DFS support for AP-mode.
        Improves performance of Tx carrier leak calibration.
        Adds support for Japan channel 14 Tx filtering requirements.
        Improves Tx power accuracy.

Impact:

        Update required to address degraded throughput at very short range.
        Update required for AP-mode DFS certification.
        Update required to comply to IEEE Tx carrier leak specification.
        May not meet expected +/- 2 dB Tx power accuracy without update.

The most important fix here would be the TX carrier leakage required
to comply with IEEE 802.11 specifications. The group of changes have
been tested all together in one release.

6cf9e995f9 ath9k: Null out references to stale pointers.
This doesn't fix any problem that I'm aware of, but should
make it harder to add use-after-free type bugs in the
future.

c1739eb3e6 ath9k: Remove bf_dmacontext.
The bf_dmacontext seems to be totally useless and duplicated
by bf_buf_addr.  Remove it entirely, use bf_buf_addr in its
place.

886b42bf5e ath9k_hw: remove AR9003 2.0 support
These chipsets will not hit the market, all customers will be
on >= AR9003 2.2. This shaves down the ath9k_hw size by
24161 bytes (24 KB) on my system.

Before:

$ size drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 292328	    616	   1824	 294768	  47f70	drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko

$ du -b drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko
5987825	drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko

After:

$ size drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 277192	    616	   1824	 279632	  44450	drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko

$ du -b drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko
