Sedat Dilek 7d5f01ad53 iwlwifi: Fix error: struct iwl_lq_sta has no member named dbg_fixed_rate
While compiling linux-next (next-20101216) I fell over this breakage:
...
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn-rs.c: In function ‘iwl_rs_rate_init’:
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn-rs.c:2876:8: error: ‘struct iwl_lq_sta’ has no member named ‘dbg_fixed_rate’

dbg_fixed_rate is only used when CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS is set:

[ drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn-rs.h ]
...
 #ifdef CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS
       struct dentry *rs_sta_dbgfs_scale_table_file;
       struct dentry *rs_sta_dbgfs_stats_table_file;
       struct dentry *rs_sta_dbgfs_rate_scale_data_file;
       struct dentry *rs_sta_dbgfs_tx_agg_tid_en_file;
       u32 dbg_fixed_rate;
 #endif

The issue was introduced by commit a1da077bc3:

Ivo van Doorn f615e9a38a rt2x00: Fix WMM Queue naming
The Queue names were incorrectly copied from the legacy drivers,
as a result the queue names were inversed to what was expected.

This renames the queues using this mapping:
	QID_AC_BK -> QID_AC_VO (priority 0)
	QID_AC_BE -> QID_AC_VI (priority 1)
	QID_AC_VI -> QID_AC_BE (priority 2)
	QID_AC_VO -> QID_AC_BK (priority 3)

Note that this was a naming problem only, which didn't affect
the assignment of frames to their respective queues.

Ivo van Doorn 5450b7e2f0 rt2x00: Introduce 3 queue commands in drivers (start, kick, stop).
As part of the queue refactoring, we now introduce
3 queue commands: start, kick, stop.

 - Start: will enable a queue, for TX this will
   not mean anything, while for beacons and RX
   this will update the registers to enable the queue.
 - Kick: This will kick all pending frames to
   the hardware. This is needed for the TX queue
   to push all frames to the HW after the queue
   has been started
 - Stop: This will stop the queue in the hardware,
   and cancel any pending work (So this doesn't
   mean the queue is empty after a stop!).

Move all code from the drivers into the appropriate
functions, and link those calls to the old rt2x00lib
callback functions (we will fix this later when we
refactor the queue control inside rt2x00lib).

Fix this by not cleaning up the beacon interval when killing the beacon queue

Recent changes to the TX-done code of rt2x00 resulted in TX-ed frames not

insufficient headroom for re-transmissions.

Fix this by reverting the changes done and by ensuring we remove the inserted
L2pad by moving the header backwards instead of the data forwards.

At the same time also make sure that the rt2x00queue_remove_l2pad will not
move any memory when a frame has no data at all.

Felix Fietkau 1bf3866182 ath9k_hw: fix PA predistortion training power selection
The EEPROM contains scale factors for the tx power, which define
the range of allowable difference between target power and training
power. If the difference is too big, PA predistortion cannot be used.
For 2.4 GHz there is only one scale factor, for 5 GHz there are
three, depending on the specific frequency range.

Felix Fietkau 1782352d49 ath9k_hw: fix the PA predistortion rate mask
The EEPROM PAPRD rate mask fields only contain mask values for actual
rates in the low 25 bits. The upper bits are reserved for tx power
scale values. Add the proper mask definitions and use them before
writing the values to the register.

Felix Fietkau 7607cbe2ad ath9k: fix PA predistortion thermal measurement handling
To be able to measure the thermal values correctly for PAPRD, we need
to send training frames before setting up the gain table for the measurement,
and then again afterwards for the actual training.

For further improvement, send training frames at MCS0 instead of 54 MBit/s
legacy. That way we can use the No-ACK flag for the transmission, which
speeds up PAPRD training in general, as the hardware won't have to
retransmit and wait for ACK timeout (was previously set to 4 * 6
transmission attempts).

Felix Fietkau caabf2bf22 ath9k_hw: fix the slot time setting for long distance links
Testing shows that adjusting the slot time based on the coverage class
produces very high latencies and very low throughput on long distance links.

Adjusting only the ACK timeout and leaving the slot time at the regular
values - while technically not optimal for CSMA - works a lot better on
long links (tested with 10 km distance)
