It looks like it might be possible for a TID to be paused, while still
holding some queued buffers, however ath_tx_node_cleanup currently only
iterates over active TIDs.
Fix this by always checking every allocated TID for the STA that is being
cleaned up.

Commit eed8e22f01 added support for using
multicast key lookup to support per-vif/sta keys for AP and ad-hoc.
Unfortunately, it also introduced a crash in ad-hoc mode when the sta
pointer is NULL, which happens when setting up an interface with WEP
keys. This patch fixes it by falling back to the assigned key index.

ath9k_hw_check_alive() occasionally returns false, as the hardware
is still processing data in a specific state. Fix this issue by
repeating the test a few times with longer delay inbetween attempts.
This gets rid of excessive hardware resets that appear frequently on
some AR9132 based devices, but could also happen on AR9280.

When issuing a reset, the TSF value is lost in the hardware because of
the 913x specific cold reset. As with some AR9280 cards, the TSF needs
to be preserved in software here.
Additionally, there's an issue that frequently prevents a successful
TSF write directly after the chip reset. In this case, repeating the
TSF write after the initval-writes usually works.
This patch detects failed TSF writes and recovers from them, taking
into account the delay caused by the initval writes.

The 'bf_retries' field of the ath_buf structure was used for both
software retries (AMPDU subframes) and hardware retries (legacy
frames). This led to a wrong retry count being reported for the A-MPDU
rate control stats.
This patch changes the code to no longer use bf_retries for reporting
retry counts, but instead always using the real on-chip retry count
from the ath_tx_status.
Additionally, if the first subframe of an A-MPDU was not acked, the tx
status report is submitted along with the first acked subframe, which
may not contain the correct rates in the tx info.
This is easily corrected by saving the tx rate info before looping over
subframes, and then copying it back once the A-MPDU status report is
submitted.
In my tests this change improves throughput visibly.

In commit 39d5b2c83c "ath5k: update
AR5K_PHY_RESTART_DIV_GC values to match masks" i introduced a regression on PHY
chips older than AR5K_SREV_PHY_5413, which caused signal values to be about
10dB less that before. This patch reverts the AR5K_PHY_RESTART_DIV_GC values to
the same values which were effectively used before (without the bitmask
mistake). This brings signal levels back to normal on these PHY chips.

There are few places where ANI is started without checking
if it is right to start. This might lead to a case where ani
timer would be left undeleted and cause improper memory acccess
during module unload. This bug is clearly exposed with
paprd support where the driver detects tx hang and does a
chip reset. During this reset ani is (re)started without checking
if it needs to be started. This would leave a timer scheduled
even after all the resources are freed and cause a panic.
This patch introduces a bit in sc_flags to indicate if ani
needs to be started in sw_scan_start() and ath_reset().
This would fix the following panic. This issue is easily seen
with ar9003 + paprd.
