Commit c7ab5ef9bc entitled "b43: implement
short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for
my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling
portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling.
Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never
called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the
value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain
the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value
of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value
in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased
performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic
improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s.
Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the
MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating
in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

virtio_net receives packets from its pre-allocated vring buffers, then it
delivers these packets to upper layer protocols as skb buffs. So it's not
necessary to pre-allocate skb for each mergable buffer, then frees extra
skbs when buffers are merged into a large packet. This patch has deferred
skb allocation in receiving packets for both big packets and mergeable buffers
to reduce skb pre-allocations and skb frees. It frees unused buffers by calling
detach_unused_buf in vring, so recv skb queue is not needed.

Calling ath_bus_cleanup() after ieee80211_free_hw() resulted in access
to common->bus_ops, which is already freed as part of the device data.
Remove the cleanup field in struct ath_bus_ops, as it was never used
properly. Remove ath_bus_cleanup(). Merge cleanup functions in place
of the ath_bus_cleanup() calls. Take care not to use any device data
after ieee80211_free_hw().
