Commit 739fd94 ("rt2x00: Pad beacon to multiple of 32 bits")
added calls to skb_pad() without checking the return value,
which could cause problems if any of those calls does happen
to fail. Add checks to prevent this from happening.

Both rt61pci and rt73usb check the Michael MIC in hardware and strip the
Michael MIC from received frames. This is perfectly allowed by mac80211 as
long as this is properly reported to mac80211.
Both these drivers reported the Michael MIC handling properly to mac80211, but
still contained a FIXME comment on this, which is not needed to be handled, since
mac80211 doesn't really need the Michael MIC in this case.

Fix interrupt processing on slow machines by using individual tasklets
for each different device interrupt. This ensures that while a RX or TX
status tasklet is scheduled only the according device interrupt is
masked and other interrupts such as TBTT can still be processed.
Also, this allows us to use tasklet_hi_schedule for TBTT processing
which is required to not send out beacons with a wrong DTIM count (due
to delayed periodic beacon updates). Furthermore, this improves the
latency between the TBTT and sending out buffered multi- and broadcast
traffic.
As a nice bonus, the interrupt handling overhead should be much lower.
Compile-tested only.

This patch allows to dynamically remove beaconing interfaces without
shutting beaconing down on all interfaces.
The only place to start and stop beaconing are now the start- and
stop_queue callbacks. Hence, we can remove some register writes during
interface bring up (config_intf) and only write the correct sync mode
to the register there.
When multiple beaconing interfaces are present we should enable
beaconing as soon as mac80211 enables beaconing on at least one of
them. The beacon queue gets stopped when the last beaconing
interface was stopped by mac80211. Therefore, introduce another
interface counter to keep track ot the number of enabled beaconing
interfaces and start or stop the beacon queue accordingly.
To allow single interfaces to stop beaconing, add a new driver
callback clear_beacon to clear a single interface's beacon without
affecting the other interfaces. Don't overload the clear_entry callback
for clearing beacons as that would introduce additional overhead
(check for each TX queue) into the clear_entry callback which is used
on the drivers TX/RX hotpaths.
Furthermore, the write beacon callback doesn't need to enable beaconing
anymore but since beaconing should be disabled while a new beacon is
written or cleared we still disable beacon generation and enable it
afterwards again in the driver specific callbacks. However, beacon
related interrupts should not be disabled/enabled here, that's solely
done from the start- and stop queue callbacks. It would be nice to stop
the beacon queue just before the beacon update and enable it afterwards
in rt2x00queue itself instead of the current implementation that relies
on the driver doing the right thing. However, since start- and
stop_queue are mutex protected we cannot use them for atomic beacon
updates.

The Queue names were incorrectly copied from the legacy drivers,

This renames the queues using this mapping:

QID_AC_VI -> QID_AC_BE (priority 2)

As part of the queue refactoring, we now introduce
3 queue commands: start, kick, stop.
- Start: will enable a queue, for TX this will
not mean anything, while for beacons and RX
this will update the registers to enable the queue.
- Kick: This will kick all pending frames to
the hardware. This is needed for the TX queue
to push all frames to the HW after the queue
has been started
- Stop: This will stop the queue in the hardware,
and cancel any pending work (So this doesn't
mean the queue is empty after a stop!).
Move all code from the drivers into the appropriate
functions, and link those calls to the old rt2x00lib
callback functions (we will fix this later when we
refactor the queue control inside rt2x00lib).

Hence, bring rt2x00 in sync with the legacy drivers and use the same TX

BEACON_ENTRIES and ATIM_ENTRIES and use per driver values.
That is 24 entries for rt2400pci, 32 entries for rt2500pci, rt2500usb,

During initialization each driver reads the default TX power
for each individual channel. However mac80211 only accepts the
maximum value (which is also handled as default value).
As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.
This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.
This fixes bug complaining about limited TX power values like:

write_tx_desc shouldn't pass a rt2x00dev and skb pointer,
instead it should use the same format as other TX frame
callback functions, which is passing the data_entry pointer
which contains all the information which is needed to work
on a TX frame.
Most callers of the kick_tx_queue and kill_tx_queue already
have the data_queue pointer, so rather then sending the QID
with the given function, when the driver requests a new
pointer to the data_queue, it is more efficient to just
send the data_queue pointer directly.

Using the set_tim callback without managing the DTIM count and the
broad- and multicast buffering in hw, fw or the driver results in wrong
DTIM count values being sent out in beacons. Since all PCI drivers
fetch new beacons periodically and hence get an updated TIM we can just
remove the set_tim callback from these.
The rt2x00 USB drivers don't update the beacon periodically and thus
rely on the set_tim callback to get a correct TIM for beacon
transmission. USB devices still suffer from the DTIM count being wrong
under some circumstances but removing the set_tim callback from these
would cause more harm then good.

This has several generic advantages:
- Reduce the time we spend in hard irq context
- Use non-atmic mac80211 functions for rx/tx
Furthermore implementing broad- and multicast buffering will be
much easier in process context while maintaining low latency and
updating the beacon just before transmission (pre tbtt interrupt)
can also be done in process context.
