Patch:
rt2x00: Make rt2x00_queue_entry_for_each more flexible
commit: 10e11568ca
introduced a severe regression on the throughput
for USB hardware. It turns out that the exiting of
the rt2x00queue_for_each_entry() was done too early.
The exact cause for this regression is unknown,
but by disabling the premature exiting of the loop
seems to resolve the issue.

The USB drivers don't support automatically waking up when in powersaving mode,
add a work object which will wakeup the device in time to receive the next beacon.
Based on that beacon, we either go back into powersaving mode, or we remain awake
to receive the buffered frames for our station.
Some part of the code, especially rt2x00lib_find_ie and rt2x00lib_rxdone_check_ps
are inspired on the code from carl9170.

Implement the get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions, which will
allow clients to control the antenna for all non-11n hardware (Antenna handling
in rt2800 is still a bit magical, so we can't use the set_antenna for those drivers
yet).
To best support the set_antenna callback some modifications are needed in the
diversity handling. We should never look at the default antenna settings to determine
if software diversity is enabled. Instead we should set the diversity flag when
possible, which will allow the link_tuner to automatically pick up the tuning.

All register reads/writes in rt2800usb were previously done with
rt2800_register_read/rt2800_register_write. These however indirectly
call rt2x00usb_register_read/rt2x00usb_register_write which adds an
additional overhead of at least one call and several move instructions
to each register access.
Replacing the calls to rt2800_register_read/rt2800_register_write with
direct calls to rt2x00usb_register_read/rt2x00usb_register_write gets
rid of quite a number of instructions in the drivers hotpaths (IRQ
handling and txdone handling).
For consistency replace all references to rt2800_register_read/write
with the rt2x00usb_register_read/write variants.

When powersaving is enabled, assocaition times are very high
(for WPA2 networks, the time can easily be around the 3 seconds).
This is caused, because the flushing of the queues takes
too much time. Without the flushing callback mac80211 assumes
a timeout of 100ms while scanning. Limit all flush waiting
loops to the same maximum.
We can apply this maximum by passing the drop status to the
driver, which makes sure the driver performs extra actions
during the waiting for the queue to become empty.
After these changes, association times fall within the
healthy range of ~0.6 seconds with powersaving enabled.
The difference between association time between powersaving
enabled and disabled is now only ~0.1 second (which can also
be due to the measuring method).

The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev->flags field,
has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching
the maximum number of bits which are available in the field.
A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only
during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device
requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are
fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are
the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact
that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others
the non-atomic variants are used.
By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags
which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically.
In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically.
This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.

- Kick: This will kick all pending frames to

- 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!).

The watchdog function must run on a work_queue
which is independent of any other work inside rt2x00.
The main reasons, being that a broken work on the mac80211
work_queue can otherwise prevent the watchdog to run (while
in fact the watchdog could fix the issue). And on the other
hand because the watchdog relies on the completion of the
completion handlers for RX/TX which for the USB case, occur
on the mac80211 workqueue.
This fixes some "Queue %d failed to flush" errors, which were
caused by the watchdog function waiting on the completion
handler which was scheduled to run right after the watchdog.

The TX_STA_FIFO contains some information for identifying
a outgoing frame, however matching by WCID and ACK status is
not sufficient to 100% identify the macthing queue_entry structure
(containing the SKB buffer) which belongs to the status report.
Within TX_STA_FIFO we have a 4-bit field named PACKETID, which is
currently used to encode the queue id. The queue ID is however
limited to values from 0 to 3, which means 2 bits are sufficient
to encode the value. With the remaining 2 bits we can encode a
partial queue_entry index number. The value of PACKETID is not
allowed to become 0, with the queue ID ranging from 0 to 3, at least
one of the bits for the entry identification must be 1.
That leaves us with 3 possible values we can still encode in the
bits. Altough this doesn't allow 100% accurate matching of the
TX_STA_FIFO queue to a queue_entry structure, it at least improves
the accuracy. This allows us to better detect if we have missed the
TX_STA_FIFO report, which in turn reduces the number of watchdog
warnings regarding the TX status timeout.

rt2x00usb_watchdog_reset_tx performs the same task
as rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue, with the only difference
is that it waits for all entries to be returned to
the driver and for all frames the status has been
reported to mac80211.
We can easily split this task by calling rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue,
sleep for a short period and invoke the TX status reporting
function. By adding the sleep() to the kill_entry we make sure
that even during shutdown we guarentee the entry has been killed when
the function returns. To make this work correctly the interrupt
handlers have to be updated to prevent checking for the RADIO_ENABLED
flag too early which prevents the ownership of the entry to be reset.
Additionally a check for the DEVICE_PRESENT flag is not required but
is nice to prevent race conditions when the device was unplugged.
Additionally rather then calling rt2x00usb_work_txdone() for
status reporting we let the driver perform the TX status reporting
first. If this is not sufficient then rt2x00usb_work_txdone() will
still be used to cleanup the mess.

The watchdog for rt2800usb triggers frequently causing all URB's
to be canceled often enough to interrupt the normal TX flow.
More research indicated that not the URB upload to the USB host
were hanging, but instead the TX status reports.
To correctly detect what is going on, we introduce Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE
which is an index counter between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX and indicates
if the frame has been transfered to the device.
This also requires the rt2x00queue timeout functions to be updated
to differentiate between a DMA timeout (time between Q_INDEX and
Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE timeout) and a STATUS timeout (time between
Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE and Q_INDEX_DONE timeout)
All Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE code was taken from the RFC from

During initialization each driver reads the default TX power
for each individual channel. However mac80211 only accepts the
maximum value (which is also handled as default value).
As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.
This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.
This fixes bug complaining about limited TX power values like:

All access to queue->entries through the Q_INDEX/Q_INDEX_DONE
variables must be done using spinlock protection. It is best
to manage this completely from rt2x00queue.c.
For safely looping through all entries in the queue, the function
rt2x00queue_for_each_entry is added which will walk from from a index
range in a safe manner.
This also fixes rt2x00usb which walked the entries list from
0 to length to kill each entry (killing entries must be done
from Q_INDEX_DONE to Q_INDEX to enforce TX status reporting to
occur in the correct order.

write_tx_desc shouldn't pass a rt2x00dev and skb pointer,
instead it should use the same format as other TX frame
callback functions, which is passing the data_entry pointer
which contains all the information which is needed to work
on a TX frame.
Most callers of the kick_tx_queue and kill_tx_queue already
have the data_queue pointer, so rather then sending the QID
with the given function, when the driver requests a new
pointer to the data_queue, it is more efficient to just
send the data_queue pointer directly.

rt2x00 was keeping a copy of ieee80211_rx_status embedded
into the rt2x00_dev structure. For each RX frame, this structure
was copied into the skb->cb where mac80211 would handle it further.
However at the moment only the fields current band, and frequency
were updated. Whereas the band was already provided directly within
the rt2x00_dev structure. Save a memcpy action, and reduce memory
a bit, by adding a curr_freq field to rt2x00_dev, and completely
remove the ieee80211_rx_status structure from rt2x00_dev.

The TX_STA_FIFO register which is used for per-frame TX frame
status reporting is also valid on rt2800usb. We can move the
rt2800pci_txdone function into rt2800lib where it can also
be used by rt2800usb.
rt2800usb needs to overwrite the txdone work handler to
a different function.
Both rt2800usb as rt2800_txdone need to take into account
that IO failures can occur while uploading the URB, which
means that when obtaining the new entry the IO status must
be checked.

The only reason why the write_tx_data callback function
is needed inside the driver, is because the location of
the TXWI descriptor is different on PCI and USB hardware.
Except for the beacon, where the TXWI is always at the
start of the SKB buffer.
In both cases the drivers write_tx_data function only
wrap around the function rt2800_write_txwi. Move write_tx_data
completely into the rt2800lib library, and add a callback
function to obtain the TXWI pointer.

Move all TX and RX completion handling into a work structure,
which is handeled on the mac80211 workqueue. This simplifies
the code in rt2x00lib since it no longer needs to check if the
device is USB or PCI to decide which mac80211 function should be used.
In the watchdog some changes are needed since it can no longer rely
on the TX completion function to be run while looping through the
entries. (Both functions now work on the same workqueue, so this
would deadlock). So the watchdog now waits for the URB to return,
and handle the TX status report directly.
As a side-effect, the debugfs entry for the RX queue now correctly
displays the positions of the INDEX and INDEX_DONE counters. This
also implies that it is not possible to perform checks like queue_empty()
and queue_full() on the RX queue.

Implement watchdog monitoring for USB devices (PCI support can
be added later). This will determine if URBs being uploaded to
the hardware are actually returning. Both rt2500usb and rt2800usb
have shown that URBs being uploaded can remain hanging without
being released by the hardware.
By using this watchdog, a queue can be reset when this occurs.
For rt2800usb it has been tested that the connection is preserved
even though this interruption.

The RSSI values in the RXWI descriptor aren't true RSSI
values. Instead they are more like the AGC values similar
to rt61pci. And as such, it needs the same conversion
before it can be passed to rt2x00lib/mac80211.
This requires the struct queue_entry to be passed to
rt2800_process_rxwi rather then the skb structure which
is contained in the queue_entry. This is required to
obtain the lna_gain information from the rt2x00_dev structure.
This fixes connection problems when using wpa_supplicant
which would try to connect to the worst AP's rather then the
best ones.

The calculated values for the ACK timeout and ACK
consume time are different then the values as
used by the Legacy drivers.
After testing from James Ledwith it appeared that
the calculated values caused a high amount of TX
failures, and the values from the Legacy drivers
were the most optimal to prevent TX failure due to
excessive retries.
The symptoms of this problem:
- Rate control module always falls back to 1Mbs
- Low throughput when bitrate was fixed
Possible side-effects (not confirmed but highly likely)
- Problems with DHCP
- Broken connections due to lack of probe response
This should fix at least:

The old function rt2x00queue_payload_align() handled
both adding and removing L2 padding and some basic
frame alignment. The entire function was being abused
because it had multiple functions and the header length
argument was somtimes used to align the header instead
of the payload.
Additionally there was a bug when inserting L2 padding
that only the payload was aligned but not the header. This
happens when the header wasn't aligned properly by mac80211,
but rt2x00lib only moves the payload.
A secondary problem was that when removing L2 padding during
TXdone or RX the skb wasn't resized to the proper size.
