Felix Fietkau 3a9dddea89 ath5k: disable 5 GHz support for the dualband PHY chip on dual-radio AR5312
There are two variants of AR5312 dual-band devices, one single-radio
and the other one dual-radio. On the dual-radio board, the first MAC
only supports 5 GHz, even though it has a dual-band PHY. The 2.4 GHz
part of this phy is used in pass-through mode, connecting the second
MAC with the second PHY.
Disable 2.4 GHz for the first MAC on an AR5312, but only if the board
configuration indicates a dual-radio device.

Felix Fietkau 6d7b97b23e ath5k: fix tx status reporting issues
During normal operation, minstrel was showing suspicious EWMA probabilities
exceeding 100%. It looks like the tx status reporting in ath5k was not
properly clearing the rate index for rates which were never attempted.

This is caused by uninitialized stale data in the on-stack tx status
information, which is reused when more frames are received.

To fix this, rely on ts->ts_final_idx to select the last attempted rate,
instead of checking whether ts->ts_rate is set.

Additionally, the conversion from the driver rate index back to the
mac80211 rate index can be dropped, as the mac80211 tx status will still
have the original rate index which was used to set up the descriptor.

Additionally, one more inaccuracy was fixed - the final rate attempt
count only needs to be increased by one if the transmission attempt was
successful.

Johannes Berg 7bb4568372 mac80211: make tx() operation return void
The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).

Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.

Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

Bruno Randolf 76a9f6fd9a ath5k: Fix short and long retry configuration
The register definition for retry configuration on AR5212 was wrong, and simply
copied over from AR5210. Update the register definitions from the documentation.

Let the short and long retries be configured from mac80211 and use the standard
values of 7 and 4 by default. Also we need to make sure we don't export more
retries than we are configured for to mac80211 (and the rate module) in
hw->max_rate_tries.

Also clean up the code by removing unused defines and variables and drop the
different values for "station retries" - if these need to be different it can
be handled tru ah_retry_long/short.

This adds a few tracepoints to ath5k driver transmit and

We record the entire packet in the trace buffer so that

Compared to the previous debugging calls, this approach
removes an out-of-line function call from the tx and rx
paths in the compiled-in-but-disabled case, while
improving the ability to process the logged data.

A new option, CONFIG_ATH5K_TRACER, is added so that one
may disable the tracepoints completely.
