Instead of using the out-of-line EWMA calculation, use DECLARE_EWMA()
to create static inlines. On x86/64 this results in code that's one
byte larger (for me), but reduces struct link_ant and struct link
size by the two unsigned long values that store the parameters each.

Use the appropriate helper functions instead of
directly accessing the rt2x00dev->cap_flags field
to check device capability flags.
This improves readability of the code a bit.

Implement the get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions, which will
allow clients to control the antenna for all non-11n hardware (Antenna handling
in rt2800 is still a bit magical, so we can't use the set_antenna for those drivers
yet).
To best support the set_antenna callback some modifications are needed in the
diversity handling. We should never look at the default antenna settings to determine
if software diversity is enabled. Instead we should set the diversity flag when
possible, which will allow the link_tuner to automatically pick up the tuning.

The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev->flags field,
has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching
the maximum number of bits which are available in the field.
A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only
during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device
requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are
fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are
the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact
that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others
the non-atomic variants are used.
By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags
which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically.
In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically.
This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.

rt2800 devices should adjust their tx power in accordance with the
eeproms temperature calibration values. Add a new driver callback
gain_calibration that is called every 4 seconds.
The rt2800 gain calibration routine simply runs the tx power
configuration that takes care of calculating the temperature
compensation delta.
We don't need to synchronize the calls to rt2800_config_txpower
as they should all happen from mac80211's single threaded workqueue.

The TX/RX work structures must be able to run independently
of other workqueues. This is because mac80211 might use
the flush() callback function from various context, which depends
on the TX/RX work to complete while the main thread is blocked
(until the the TX queues are empty).
This should reduce the number of 'Queue %d failed to flush' warnings.

The watchdog function must run on a work_queue
which is independent of any other work inside rt2x00.
The main reasons, being that a broken work on the mac80211
work_queue can otherwise prevent the watchdog to run (while
in fact the watchdog could fix the issue). And on the other
hand because the watchdog relies on the completion of the
completion handlers for RX/TX which for the USB case, occur
on the mac80211 workqueue.
This fixes some "Queue %d failed to flush" errors, which were
caused by the watchdog function waiting on the completion
handler which was scheduled to run right after the watchdog.

The test if antenna diversity is at all enabled uses a local variable
'flags' to prepare the test condition, but uses 'ant->flags' when the test
is evaluated. The effect is that the diversity evaluation will never start.
I can see two solutions, use the 'flag' in the test condition or revert the
local flag change. My attached patch took alternative two.
Then the evaluation start but it will still not switch antenna. The problem
is a code section in rt2x00lib_config_antenna (). The effect of that code
section is that any change the diversity function perform will be
effectively shorten and no antenna selection command issued. The attached
patch will filter out any ANTENNA_SW_DIVERSITY setting but forward all
other

Implement watchdog monitoring for USB devices (PCI support can
be added later). This will determine if URBs being uploaded to
the hardware are actually returning. Both rt2500usb and rt2800usb
have shown that URBs being uploaded can remain hanging without
being released by the hardware.
By using this watchdog, a queue can be reset when this occurs.
For rt2800usb it has been tested that the connection is preserved
even though this interruption.

Currently vgc_level_reg and vgc_level are equal to eachother,
while the purpose of vgc_level_reg is the value last written
to the register and is remembered through link tuning resets.
The vgc_level is the currently active level, which is
reset during link tuning resets.
The usage of these variables depends on the drivers, some drivers
need both, while others need only one of the two.

Link tuning support is not only based on EEPROM decisions, but
also if the device actually supports it.

of hardware problems. But rt2800usb is also suspected of having
problems with link tuning.

Since the link tuning is based on average RSSI values taken from all received
frames it doesn't make sense to enable it in AP mode where every associated
station provides independent RSSI values. Furthermore the legacy drivers
don't enable link tuning in AP mode as well.

As mentioned on the linux-wireless mailing list, the current copyright
statements in the rt2x00 are meaningless, as the rt2x00 project is
not even a formal legal entity. Therefore it is better to replace
the existing copyright statements with copyright statements for the
people that actually wrote the code.
Note: Updated to the best of my knowledge with respect to who
contributed considerable amounts of code.

Small changes in signal level was not detected up by the

rssi_avg: -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57 -57
The signal level reported back could be significantly (5dBm)
different from the actual value. A level +3dBm is the same as

Antanna quality statistics is not handled correctly, which leads to
software diversity being shutdown completly.
The main problem is that during antenna diversity statistics can
be reset resulting in loosing the signal strength just before
evaluation.
rssi history is not updated correctly leading to incorrect comparison
material for basing antenna switching on.

The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers
to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211
takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never
really had requirements on drivers for how they should use
the workqueue in consideration for suspend.
We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should
be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to
the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers
to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue:
* ieee80211_queue_work()
* ieee80211_queue_delayed_work()
These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its
suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211
flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times,
but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more
work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when
someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the
suspend cycle.
Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work
in the mac80211 stop() callback.

rt2x00dev->default_ant should be initialized once by the driver,
and should not be changed afterwards. Because rt2x00lib_config_antenna()
was using a reference to the struct antenna_setup it actually had the oppurtunity
to change the default antenna setting and it actually did that during the validation.
Instead of passing a pointer to antenna_setup the entire structure should be copied.

Software antenna tuning is broken because of an function
ordering problem during rt2x00link_tuner().
rt2x00link_precalculate_signal()
rt2x00leds_led_quality()
rt2x00lib_antenna_diversity()
rt2x00link_precalculate_signal() will reset the quality TX/RX counters,
however rt2x00lib_antenna_diversity() requires the RX counter to
see what RSSI value must be used for a particular antenna.
We can't change the ordering since rt2x00lib_antenna_diversity() might
reset other statistics which are needed by the function called earlier.
Move the reset of the quality TX/RX counters into a seperate function
and move the call to after rt2x00lib_antenna_diversity().

Restrict drivers to only access link_qual structure during
link tuning. The contents of these fields are for the drivers
and all fields are allowed to be changed to values the driver
considers correct.
This means that some fields need to be moved outside of this
structure to restrict access only to rt2x00link itself.
This allows some code to be moved outside of the rt2x00.h header
and into rt2x00link.c.
