Add support to iwlagn for off-channel TX. The
microcode API for this is a bit strange in that
it uses a hacked-up scan command, so the scan
code needs to change quite a bit to accomodate
that and be able to send it out.

Usually H/W generate statistics notify once per about 100ms, but
sometimes we can receive notify in shorter time, even 2 ms.
This can be problem for plcp health and ack health checking.
I.e. with 2 plcp errors happens randomly in 2 ms duration, we
exceed plcp delta threshold equal to 100 (2*100/2).
Also checking ack's in short time, can results not necessary false
positive and firmware reset, for example when channel is noised and
we do not receive ACKs frames or when remote device does not send
ACKs at the moment.
Patch change code to do statistic check and possible recovery only
if 99ms elapsed from last check. Forced delay should assure we have
good statistic data to estimate hardware state.

The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).
Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.
Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

Add support to build these drivers independently of the driver for
AGN devices. Selecting the 3945 builds iwl3945.ko and iwl_legacy.ko,
and selecting the 4965 builds iwl4965.ko and iwl_legacy.ko. iwl-legacy.ko

The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.
In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.
Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!

Since commit 6cd0b1cb872b3bf9fc5de4536404206ab74bafdd "iwlagn: fix
hw-rfkill while the interface is down", we enable interrupts when
device is not ready to receive them. However hardware, when it is in
some inconsistent state, can generate other than rfkill interrupts
and crash the system. I can reproduce crash with "kernel BUG at
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn.c:1010!" message, when forcing
firmware restarts.
To fix only enable rfkill interrupt when down device and after probe.
I checked patch on laptop with 5100 device, rfkill change is still
passed to user space when device is down.
