Originally Helmut posted a v2 of the "ath9k: Allow platform override
without EEPROM override", but I had prematurely commited the original
as commit 552a515707. This commit restores the tree to what Helmut
intended with his v2 submission. -- JWL

Add a new platform data flag "use_eeprom" that indicates that the eeprom
found on the card itself should be used instead of the one present in
the platform data.
This allows to override the MAC address of a PCI card while preserving
the eeprom data from the card itself.
The default behavior is preserved.

A similar patch fixed crashes seen on an ath9k system

is slightly less protective, but probably will do the

There are some corner cases where the driver could get stuck with a full
tid queue that is paused, leading to a software tx queue hang.
Since the tx queueing rework, pausing per-tid queues on aggregation
session setup is no longer necessary. The driver will assign sequence
numbers to buffered frames when a new session is established, in order
to get the correct starting sequence number.
mac80211 prevents new frames from entering the queue during setup.

When the amount of noise fluctuates strongly, low immunity settings
can sometimes disrupt signal detection on AR913x chips. When that
happens, no OFDM/CCK errors are reported anymore, and ANI tunes the
radio to the lowest immunity settings.
Usually rx/tx fails as well in that case.
To fix this, keep noise immunity settings at or above ANI default level,
which will keep radio parameters at or above INI values.

The commit "ath9k: move sc_flags to ath_common" moved setting
ATH_OP_INVALID flag below ieee80211_register_hw. This is causing
the flag never being cleared randomly as the drv_start is called
prior to setting flag. Fix this by setting the flag prior to
register_hw.

Implement a recv budget so that in cases of high traffic we still allow other
taskets to get processed.
Without this, we can encounter a host of issues during high wireless traffic
reception depending on system load including rcu stall's detected (ARM),
soft lockups, failure to service critical tasks such as watchdog resets,
and triggering of the tx stuck tasklet.
The same thing was proposed previously by Ben:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg112891.html
The only difference here is that I make sure only processed packets are counted
in the budget by checking at the end of the rx loop.

On older chips, the INI value differ in similar ways as cycpwr_thr1, so
convert it to absolute values as well.
Since the ANI algorithm is different here compared to the old
implementation (fewer steps, controlled at a different point in time),
it makes sense to use values similar to what would be applied for newer
chips, just without relying on INI defaults.
