Recent changes in udev are causing problems for drivers that load firmware
from the probe routine. As b43 has such a structure, it must be changed.
As this driver loads more than 1 firmware file, changing to the asynchronous routine
request_firmware_nowait() would be complicated. In this implementation, the probe
routine starts a queue that calls the firmware loading routines.

My patch 24fc32b3 ("ath6kl: add ath6kl_bmi_write_hi32()") caused a regression
in ath6kl_upload_board_file() and the board_address variable was not
properly initialised in some cases:

ath6kl/init.c:1068:6: warning: ‘board_address’ may be used uninitialized
in this function

Most likely this broke ar6004 support but I can't test that right now.

The authentication and association handshake
already happens in the context of the new BSS,
and the basic rates are needed at least for
the ACK response frame to the authentication
or association response frames. Therefore the
basic rates should already be configured into
the driver when those frames are sent.

Change the logic to set up the basic rates in
the connection preparation that happens for
authentication and association (if needed).

rt2800pci is suffering from beacon skew in AP mode. Some powersaving
clients (like VOIP phones) are getting into trouble after some time
when the beacon skew is getting too big.

The ralink legacy drivers contain a function that indicates that the
beacon timer is off by 1us per tbtt. And this function works around
that by reducing the beacon interval for every 64th beacon transmission
by 64us (the smallest possible value). Do the same in rt2800pci.

This allows proper powersaving when rt2800pci is used in AP mode.

As we've discussed, we want to avoid channel changes
while associated. While the part when we actually
associate needs a bit more work, the bit that happens
on disassociating can be changed quite easily. Move
the channel type change later in the disassociate
process to set the channel only after the driver was
told that it's now disassociated.

As the driver could expect powersave to be enabled
only when associated, this thus results in splitting
the config call, but overall what happens makes more
sense this way.

While setting up or tearing down a BA session mac80211 is buffering
pending frames for the according TID. However, there's currently no
limit on how many frames are buffered possibly leading to an out-of-
memory situation. This can happen on systems with little memory when
the CPU is fully loaded since the BA session work is executed in
process context while frames can still come via softirq.

Apply a limitation to the TIDs pending queue to avoid consuming
too much memory in this situation.
