mac80211 recently implemented two new callbacks that are used to request
station add/remove from the driver. The benefot from these new callbacks
are that they enable the driver to sleep while performing this work.
This is a big patch since a few things need to be coordinated in this move.
First we need to decouple station management from rate scaling, which
caused a lot of code to be moved and/or deleted. Next we needed to tie in
with mac80211's station management callback and let it direct our station
management as well as trigger the rate scaling initialization.

Currently the broadcast station is added after every RXON command. Change
this to only add the broadcast station when interface is added by mac80211.
With this we need some extra work to ensure broadcast station is always
present since station table is cleared when RXON without ASSOC bit set is
sent. To deal with this we re-add all driver known stations to uCode after
such an RXON command is sent.
We also do some cleanup and remove the various calls to clear the station
table. We now only clear the station table in two scenarios:
- only clear uCode portion of station table when RXON command without ASSOC
bit is sent
- clear uCode and driver portion when interface goes down or is removed.
We need to do this clearing when interface goes down to deal with the
device restart/reconfigure routines which do not remove the interface, but
do add the interface during reconfiguration.
Previously the keys were also cleared when station table in driver is
cleared, this is not done anymore since mac80211 will take care that keys
are set and cleared correctly.
There is a known issue with this change. Associating with different AP
without bringing interface down fails with a firmware error. This is
because of the lack of full station notification support and the later
patches in this series that complete the station notification support will
fix this.

After testing, we found that TX_STA_FIFO_MCS is the last MCS value
tried. If the transmission failed, 8 frames have been transmitted. If the
transmission succeed, we can easily compute the number of retry. This patch fix
the way status is reported to mac80211 rate control. It has 2 bugs :
1. mcs can contain the short preamble flag and it will lead to wrong
computations.
2. minstrel nearly always say that 54 Mbits is the best rate, even if we are
very far from the AP

The rate control algorithm, default is Minstrel for ath5k, determines
the number of retries to use for each rate. However, there exists in
ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_desc (which is called for AR5212 like devices)
a set number of retries defined by AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES. The set
number of tries is added to the tx_tries0 variable setup by the rate
control algorithm. This changes the number of retries the rate
control algorithm considers necessary. By removing the
AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES from the retry calculation the rate control
algorithm is given control over the number of retries.

Currently, the padding position is based on
ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb(). This is not correct since the HW does
padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the
following position :
- management : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- control : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS
- invalid : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is :
- management : 24
- control : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10
- data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order
- invalid : 24
So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use
4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ...
not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for
debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it
correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding.
Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before
calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor
interfaces.
It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb
based card (netgear WNDA3100) using a frame generator and a monitor
interface for each card.

Introduce a new IWL_TX_FIFO_UNUSED constant

to hold that value, and change the setup
code to reserve all queues in the arrays
(the queue number is the index) and use the
new unused constant to not map those queues

Additionally, clear up the AC/queue mapping
