mac80211: shorten the passive dwell time for sw scans
mac80211's software scan implementation uses a passive dwell time of
(HZ / 5) which means we stay 200ms on each passive channel. Compared
to iwlwifi's hw scan and the old ipw* drivers which use values around
120ms this is quite long.
Reducing the passive dwell time from 200ms to 125ms should save us
something around a second on cards capable of 11a and we should still be
able to catch beacons from most access points (assuming a ~100ms beacon
interval).

ath9k: differentiate quality reporting between legacy and HT configurations
We were not differentiating quality between legacy and HT
configurations. We change this to consider the differences.
New theory for reporting quality:
At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 7 reliably.
At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 15 reliably.
At a hardware RSSI of 35 you should be able use 54 Mbps reliably.
MCS 7 is the highets MCS index usable by a 1-stream device.
MCS 15 is the highest MCS index usable by a 2-stream device.
All ath9k devices are either 1-stream or 2-stream.
How many bars you see is derived from the qual reporting.
A more elaborate scheme can be used here but it requires tables
of SNR/throughput for each possible mode used. For the MCS table
you can refer to the wireless wiki:

libertas: fix card cleanup order in SDIO driver
The SDIO driver sets the surpriseremoved flag before calling
lbs_remove_card. With IEEE PS enabled, lbs_remove_card must issue a
command to exit IEEE PS mode, however with that flag set the command
path is blocked and the card is never taken out of IEEE PS mode. This
step is required to ensure that the driver can be reloaded. This patch
moves the setting of surpriseremoved after lbs_remove_card is called.
Tested with V9 firmware by ensuring that IEEE PS is disabled when the
driver is removed. Reloading the driver is not fully tested due to a
separate issue with module reload in the SDIO driver, however this

The SPI driver does a couple of card cleanup steps in the wrong order on

problem is that the surpriseremoved flag is set before calling
lbs_remove_card, but that function needs to issue a command to exit IEEE
PS mode (the flag blocks the command path). In addition, lbs_stop_card
should be called first because it clears out any pending commands.

cfg80211: managed mode wext compatibility
This adds code to make it possible to use the cfg80211
connect() API with wireless extensions, and because the
previous patch added emulation of that API with auth()
and assoc(), by extension also supports wext on that.
At the same time, removes code from mac80211 for wext,
but doesn't yet clean up mac80211's mlme code more.

This patch introduces the cfg80211 connect/disconnect API.
The goal here is to run the AUTH and ASSOC steps in one call.
This is needed for some fullmac cards that run both steps
directly from the target, after the host driver sends a
connect command.
Additionally, all the new crypto parameters for connect()
are now also valid for associate() -- although associate
requires the IEs to be used, the information can be useful
for drivers and should be given.

cfg80211: introduce nl80211 testmode command
This introduces a new NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE for testing
and calibration use with nl80211. There's no multiplexing
like like iwpriv had, and the command is not available by
default, it needs to be explicitly enabled in Kconfig and
shouldn't be enabled in most kernels.
The command requires a wiphy index or interface index to
identify the device to operate on, and the new TESTDATA
attribute. There also is API for sending replies to the
command, and testmode multicast messages (on a testmode
multicast group).
I've also updated mac80211 to be able to pass through the
command to the driver, since it itself doesn't implement
the testmode command.
Additionally, to give people an idea of how to use the
command, I've added a little code to hwsim that makes use
of the new command to set the powersave mode, this is
currently done via debugfs and should remain there, and
the testmode command only serves as an example of how to
use this best -- with nested netlink attributes in the
TESTDATA attribute. A hwsim testmode tool can be found at
http://git.sipsolutions.net/hwsim.git/. This tool is BSD
licensed so people can easily use it as a basis for their
own internal fabrication and validation tools.
