    ath9k: fix race in setting ATH_OP_INVALID
    
    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.

    ath9k: add a recv budget
    
    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.

    ath9k: fix possible hang on flush
    
    If a flush is requested, make sure to clear the descriptor once we've
    processed it.
    
    This resolves a hang that will occur if all RX descriptors are full when a
    flush is requested.

    ath9k: remove tid->paused flag
    
    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.

    ath9k_hw: do not lower ANI setting below default on AR913x
    
    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.

    mac80211: exclude AP_VLAN interfaces from tx power calculation
    
    Their power value is initialized to zero. This patch fixes an issue
    where the configured power drops to the minimum value when AP_VLAN
    interfaces are created/removed.

    ath9k: fix a scheduling while atomic bug in CSA handling
    
    Commit "ath9k: prepare for multi-interface CSA support" added a call to
    ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces in atomic context (beacon tasklet),
    which is crashing.
    Use ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic instead.

    ath9k_hw: reduce ANI firstep range for older chips
    
    Use 0-8 instead of 0-16, which is closer to the old implementation.
    Also drop the overwrite of the firstep_low parameter to improve
    stability.
