libertas USB: don't set surpriseremoved flag
We found a deadlock in the handling of command failures/reset conditions.
For example:
1. Two commands are in the queue.
2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an
asynchronous device reset
3. The second command is queued (but not yet sent to the hardware)
4. The device reset kicks in, causing the if_usb disconnect handler to
set the "surprise removed" flag to be set as the device disappears
from the bus. This causes lbs_thread to stop processing things
("adapter removed; waiting to die"), not processing any further
commands, leaving the second queued command "in the air", causing a
deadlock.
Fix this by removing the surpriseremoved flag setting in if_usb. I can't
see any reason why this needs to be done so early. lbs_remove_card will set
this flag at an appropriate time - i.e. after all pending commands have
been completed or cancelled, avoiding this deadlock.

libertas: handle command failure immediately
Fail commands immediately when the request cannot be sent to the hardware.
This solves the following deadlock:
1. Two commands are in the queue.
2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an
asynchronous device reset
3. The second command is submitted to the device, and fails. The failure
is noted but the existing code waits for the timeout handler to take
care of the failure.
4. The device reset kicks in, causing the device "surprise removed" flag
to be set as the device disappears from the bus.
5. lbs_thread notes this and enters "adapter removed; waiting to die"
mode, without processing any further command timeouts.
While adjusting lbs thread logic to handle this situation may be one way
to fix this, it seems more practical to simplify handling of host_to_card
failure so that the commands are failed immediately without waiting for
more compliated timeout logic to kick in.

Commit d83579e2a50ac68389e6b4c58b845c702cf37516 incorporated some
changes from the vendor driver that made it newly important that the
calculated hardware version correctly include the CHIP_92D bit, as all
of the IS_92D_* macros were changed to depend on it. However, this bit
was being unset for dual-mac, dual-phy devices. The vendor driver
behavior was modified to not do this, but unfortunately this change was
not picked up along with the others. This caused scanning in the 2.4GHz
band to be broken, and possibly other bugs as well.
This patch brings the version calculation logic in parity with the
vendor driver in this regard, and in doing so fixes the regression.
However, the version calculation code in general continues to be largely
incoherent and messy, and needs to be cleaned up.

cfg80211: fix set_regdom() to cancel requests with same alpha2
While adding regulatory support to ath6kl I noticed that I easily
got the regulatory code confused. The way to reproduce the bug was:
1. iw reg set FI (in userspace)
2. cfg80211 calls ath6kl_reg_notify(FI)
3. ath6kl sets regdomain in firmware
4. firmware sends regdomain event to notify about the new regdomain (FI)
5. ath6kl calls regulatory_hint(FI)
And this (from FI to FI transition) confuses cfg80211 and after that I
only get "Pending regulatory request, waiting for it to be
processed...." messages and regdomain changes won't work anymore.
The reason why ath6kl calls regulatory_hint() is that firmware can change
the regulatory domain by it's own, for example due to 11d IEs. I could
of course workaround this in ath6kl but I think it's better to handle
the case in cfg80211.
The fix is pretty simple, use a different error code if the regdomain is
same and then just set the request processed so that it doesn't block new
requests.

mac80211: add time synchronisation with BSS for assoc
Some drivers (iwlegacy, iwlwifi and rt2x00) today use the
bss_conf.last_tsf value. By itself though that value is
completely worthless since it may be ancient. What really
is needed is synchronisation between some device time and
the TSF.
To clarify this, rename bss_conf.last_tsf to sync_tsf and
add sync_device_ts which is obtained from rx_status which
gets a new field device_timestamp for this purpose. This
is intentionally not using the mactime field since that
is used for other things and in IBSS is expected to sync
with the IBSS's TSF which isn't necessarily true for the
device timestamp.
Also, since we have the information and it's useful even
before the connection has been established, give all the
timing details to the driver before authenticating.

mac80211: redesign scan RX
Scan receive is rather inefficient when there are
multiple virtual interfaces. We iterate all of the
virtual interfaces and then notify cfg80211 about
each beacon many times.
Redesign scan RX to happen before everything else.
Then we can also get rid of IEEE80211_RX_IN_SCAN
since we don't have to accept frames into the RX
handlers for scanning or scheduled scanning any
more. Overall, this simplifies the code.

This patch adds an alternative tx status path
for BlockAck Requests as the hardware doesn't
recognize that a BlockAck Requests is usually
acked with a BlockAck and not a legacy ACK.
Without this patch, the stack would constantly
resent old and stale BARs. So, depending on the
receiver stack, this could lead to:
- "stuck" ba sessions and package loss, as the
stale BAR would reset the sequence each time.
- lots of reorder releases.
