We make oldconfig every time when a new kernel arrives, but
if we don't have such a device(I guess this is the most common
case for a new device), the default value should be 'n' so
that the kernel size we build doesn't grow up too much quickly.
For anyone who has the device, it is OK for them to turn it on
by themselves.

Whenever there is a channel width change from 40 Mhz to 20 Mhz,
the hardware is reconfigured to ht20. Meantime before doing
the rate control updation, the packets are being transmitted are
selected rate with IEEE80211_TX_RC_40_MHZ_WIDTH.
While transmitting ht40 rate packets in ht20 mode is causing
baseband panic with AR9003 based chips.

While receiving unsupported rate frame rx state machine
gets into a state 0xb and if phy_restart happens in that
state, BB would go hang. If RXSM is in 0xb state after
first bb panic, ensure to disable the phy_restart.

rounding up the delta between last-beacon-tsf and tsf to intval is wrong
and can lead to misconfigured timers which breaks beacon transmission.
Fix this by adding intval and subtracting the offset of the tsf within the
current slot.

Commit "ath9k_htc: Fix AMPDU subframe handling" registered the maximum
subframe limit of the driver with mac80211, which was used in ADDBA
negotiation. While technically correct, this causes inter-operability issues
with a few APs. Revert to the older behavior to fix this.

The BSSID/AID has to be set for the first associated station interface.
Subsequent interfaces may move out of assoc/disassoc status, in which
case, the BSSID has to be re-calculated from the available interfaces.

In ad-hoc mode, beacon timers are configured differently compared to AP
mode, and (depending on the scenario) can vary enough to make the beacon
tasklet not detect slot 0 based on the TSF.
Since staggered beacons are not (and cannot be) used in ad-hoc mode, it
makes more sense to just hardcode slot 0 here, avoiding unnecessary
TSF reads and calculations.

packet counts/rssi of main/alternate antenna make sure both main_rssi

The assumsion is that while processing ath9k tasklet,
interrupts were already disabled and it will be enabled
at the completion of ath9k tasklet. But whenever TSFOOR is raised,
the driver configures the beacon timers after having received a
beacon frame from the AP which inturn enables the interrupts.

With AR9003 at about ~ 10 feet from an AP that uses RTS / CTS you
will be able to associate but not not get data through given that
the power for the rates used was set too low. This increases the
power and permits data connectivity at longer distances from
access points when connected with HT40. Without this you will not
get any data through when associated to APs configured in HT40
at about more than 10 feet away.

At present the noise floor calibration is processed in supported
control and extension chains rather than required chains.
Unnccesarily doing nfcal in all supported chains leads to
invalid nf readings on extn chains and these invalid values
got updated into history buffer. While loading those values
from history buffer is moving the chip to deaf state.
This issue was observed in AR9002/AR9003 chips while doing
associate/dissociate in HT40 mode and interface up/down
in iterative manner. After some iterations, the chip was moved
to deaf state. Somehow the pci devices are recovered by poll work
after chip reset. Raading the nf values in all supported extension chains
when the hw is not yet configured in HT40 mode results invalid values.
