This adds a few debugging counters, that are useful for debugging the
"card does not transmit" or "connection is unstable" kind of problems.
It's also useful for tuning an RC algorithm.

Rename the DMA ring pointers to have more descriptive and standard
names. Also remove the 6th unused TX ring. We can add it back later,
if we need it. The unused TX-status rx-ring is also removed, as that's
only used by legacy devices not supported by this driver anyway.
This is no functional change, except less memory allocation for
the removed rings.

This adds QOS support to the b43 driver.
QOS can be disabled on driver level with a module parameter for debugging purposes.

This checks if the DMA address is bigger than what the controller can manage.
It will reallocate the buffers in the GFP_DMA zone in that case.

We must not transmit packets we're not able to encrypt.
This fixes a bug where in a tiny timeframe after machine resume
packets can get sent unencrypted and might leak information.
This also fixes three small resource leakages I spotted while fixing
the security problem. Properly deallocate the DMA slots in any DMA
allocation error path.

This patch adds support for new firmware.
Old firmware is still supported until July 2008.
To get new firmware, go to
ftp://ftp.linksys.com/opensourcecode/wrt150nv11/1.51.3/
and download the tarball. We don't have a smaller tarball, yet.
That will be fixed later.
You can extract firmware out of the "wl_ap.o" file contained
in this tarball using latest fwcutter. You must pass the option
--unsupported to fwcutter.
Fwcutter-010 with official support for a new firmware image will
be released soon.

This queues frames flagged as "send after DTIM" by mac80211
on the special multicast queue. The firmware will take care
to send the packet after the DTIM.

Remove b43 PIO support.
DMA works well on all supported devices. There's no reason to use PIO.
Additionally, new devices don't support PIO in hardware anymore.
b43 PIO support is dead and unused code.
After applying this patch please do
git rm drivers/net/wireless/b43/pio.h
git rm drivers/net/wireless/b43/pio.c
to remove the main PIO support code.

The BCM94311MCG rev 02 chip has an 802.11 core with revision 13 and
has not been supported until now. The changes include the following:
(1) Add the 802.11 rev 13 device to the ssb_device_id table to load b43.
(2) Add PHY revision 9 to the supported list.
(3) Change the 2-bit routing code for address extensions to 0b10 rather
than the 0b01 used for the 32-bit case.
(4) Remove some magic numbers in the DMA setup.
The DMA implementation for this chip supports full 64-bit addressing with
one exception. Whenever the Descriptor Ring Buffer is in high memory, a
fatal DMA error occurs. This problem was not present in 2.6.24-rc2 due
to code to "Bias the placement of kernel pages at lower PFNs". When
commit 44048d70 reverted that code, the DMA error appeared. As a "fix",
use the GFP_DMA flag when allocating the buffer for 64-bit DMA. At present,
this problem is thought to arise from a hardware error.
This patch has been tested on my system and by Cédric Caumont
