ath9k: fix ready time of the multicast buffer queue
qi->tqi_readyTime is written directly to registers that expect
microseconds as unit instead of TU.
When setting the CABQ ready time, cur_conf->beacon_interval is in TU, so
convert it to microseconds before passing it to ath9k_hw.
This should hopefully fix some Tx DMA issues with buffered multicast
frames in AP mode.

rtl8180: prepare to handle more than two chip types
Currently a "r8185" integer variable is used as a boolean flag to
indicate whether the card is a rtl8185 or not.
Since now the driver supports only rtl8185 and rtl8180 cards, if
"r8185" variable is zero then the card is implicitly assumed to
be a rtl8180.
Now I'm preparing to add support for a third card type (rtl8187se).
This patch changes the "r8185" flag with an enum variable to
explicitly indicate which card type we have.
I'm submitting this this patch now, even if I still have to submit
other patches that not pertain with rtl8187se support, because
IMHO it's not worth rebasing them on the current code, using r8185
flag, and then changing them back again nearly immediately.
BTW if someone feels I really should do this, please tell me..

This adds stress on the memory manager. The handling of
compound pages is also less trivial for the memory manager
and not using them will make the allocation code run faster
although I didn't really measure.
Eric also pointed out that having huge buffers with little
data in them is not very nice towards the TCP stack since
the truesize of the skb is huge. This doesn't allow TCP
to have a big Rx window.

The main reason for not disabling weak signal detection in AP mode is
that typically beacon RSSI is used to track whether it is needed to
boost range, and this is unavailable in AP mode for obvious reasons.
The problem with not disabling weak signal detection is that older

When FW notifies about BACK status change, it provides ring ID.
Process BA status for requested connection only. As for now, FW
don't report Rx BACK status, it reports Tx one instead.
As per current algorithm used in the firmware, imply Rx BACK
state is in sync with Tx one

Hardware do not support "real" broadcast on the air.
Use method similar to the Directed Multicast Service (DMS) as
described in the 10.23.15.2 "DMS procedures"
This service copies frame and delivers unicast for each associated peer
Do the following: send original frame to 1-st Tx vring, and send copies
to all other active vrings.
As currently hardware/firmware don't support A-MSDU, convert broadcast
frame to unicast instead of wrapping it in A-MSDU

Enable multiple (up to 8 - HW/FW limitation) simultaneous connections.
Each connection has its own CID (connection ID) that describes chip's
beam-forming entity. Tx Vring should refer to correct CID for frame to reach
its destination.

Print '_' for the 'idle' descriptors - this makes vring representation more visible.
Also, for the Tx side, differentiate descriptors having associated skb's - print ones
with skb as 'H' and without as 'h'. Good to represent scattered frames.

mwifiex: Track BA sequence number reset
Some stations reset the sequence number for traffic-ids (TIDs)
as they initiate a block-ACK session. In order to detect such
behavior, mwifiex must note the starting sequence number given
during the ADDBA request. If the first received sequence number
after the ADDBA falls outside the receive window for this TID but
after the the ADDBA starting sequence number, we can assume that
this AP has reset its sequence number during the ADDBA. In this
case we must adjust the input window backward to incorporate this
received sequence number instead of ignoring it. Otherwise, we
could fail to successfully retrieve an arbitrarily large number
of downstream frames at the beginning of the block-ACK session.
