Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll
functionality. When powersave is enabled, these AP's will set the TIM bit for
a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not
respond with data.
The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this
problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables
power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever
data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time.
This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the
chances of inbound data getting through.
The side effect of this patch is increased power consumption when using a
faulty AP.

This patch removes the calibration performed on the first join command. The
reasoning is that this is unnecessary as devices get their calibration data
via the NVS file, and because the commands break BT coexistence.
This is actually safe, because of the implementation the calibration
was executed on the first JOIN anyway, after an ifdown/ifup the devices have
relied on the NVS for calibration anyway (== most of the time.)

This patch relates to "[PATCH] gainfar.c : skb_over_panic
(kernel-2.6.32.15)"
While in 2.6.32.15 it actually fixed a bug here it merely cleans up
the previous attempts to fix the bug with a more coherent code.
Currently before queuing skb into the rx_recycle it is
"un-skb_reserve"-ed so when taken out in gfar_new_skb() it wont be
reserved twice.
This patch makes sure the alignment skb_reserve is done once, upon
allocating the skb and not when taken out of the rx_recycle
pool. Eliminating the need to undo anything before queue skb back to
the pool.
NOTE: This patch will compile and is fairly straight forward but I do
not have environment to test it as I did with the 2.6.32.15 fix.

There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.
One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().
Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)
Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

When ath_tx_complete_aggr() is called, it's responsible for returning
all buffers in the linked list. This was not done when the STA lookup
failed, leading to a race condition that could leak a few buffers when
a STA just disconnected.
Fix this by immediately returning all buffers to the free list in this case.
