The driver uses static data structures for initializing
specific fields of a given data queue. These static
queue data descriptor structures are containing values
which related to a given chipset.
Even though the values are chip specific, the actual
selection of the used structure is based on device
specific vendor/product identifiers. This approach works,
but it is not always reliable. Sometimes the vendor and/or
device IDs of the PCI and USB devices contains improper
values which makes it impossible to select the correct
structure for such devices.
The patch adds a new callback to tr2x00_ops which

This allows the drivers to do dynamic initialization

rt2x00: rt2x00queue: setup queue->threshold from queue->limit
Use the queue->limit value instead of the
qdesc->entry_num to compute the threshold.
The two source values are the same and the
data queue descriptor structure will be
removed by a later patch.
Also separate the computation from the rest
of the init code to make further changes
easier.

rt2x00: rt2x00dev: use rt2x00dev->bcn->limit
The beacon data queue is initialized already,
so fetch the number of the queue entries from
that instead of using the entry_num field of
the data queue descriptor.
The two values are the same, and the use of the
rt2x00dev->bcn->limit value allows us to get rid
of a superfluous pointer dereference.

rt2x00: rt2x00queue: add priv_size field to struct data_queue
Add a new field into struct data_queue and store
the size of the per-queue_entry private data in
that. Additionally, use the new field in the
rt2x00queue_alloc_entries function to compute
the size of the queue entries for a given queue.
The patch does not change the current behaviour
but makes it possible to remove the queue_desc
parameter of the rt2x00queue_alloc_entries function.
That will be done by a subsequent patch.

The commit, "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters"
modified the immunity level tables for both CCK and OFDM. Fix them
so that the tables are in sync with the internal driver/codebase.

The commit "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters"
changed various ANI operational parameters to address a specific
card/environment. This is not really applicable for other cards
in general usage.
As per internal documentation, lowering the immunity level can be
done only after 5 periods have passed and the CCK/OFDM errors are
below the low watermak threshold - which have been fixed at 300 and
400 respectively by the sytems team.
Raising the immunity level can be done when CCK/OFDM errors exceed
600 and 1000 (per second).
Set these values once during attach.

ath10k: mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac CQA98xx devices
Here's a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac QCA98xx devices.
A major difference from ath9k is that there's now a firmware and
that's why we had to implement a new driver.
The driver has had many authors, they are listed here alphabetically:

b43: stop format string leaking into error msgs
The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered,
and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates
ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err()
parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware,
this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation.

The ath9k rate control algorithm has various architectural
issues that make it a poor fit in scenarios like congested
environments etc.
An example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927191
Change the default to minstrel which is more robust in such cases.
The ath9k RC code is left in the driver for now, maybe it can
be removed altogether later on.

This change reduces rx sensitivity with no apparent extra benefit.
It looks like it was meant for testing in a specific scenario,
but it was never properly validated.

Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode)
for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's
connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in
and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is
given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase
in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link
stability.
