This patch adds the a few lines that went missing in
"p54: 802.11a 5GHz phy support"
Essentially: the rx-code wasn't updated and therefore reported the wrong band,
but more importantly the rate index was off as well, since 802.11a doesn't
allow the "four" 802.11b rates...

All of the above have been fixed. One question, however, remains: In struct
bootrec, the array "data" is treated in many places as native CPU order, but
it may be little-endian everywhere. As far as I can tell, this driver has only
been used with little-endian hardware.

as one can see on the huge jump, it's very plausible that firmware does not report the
full 64-bit mac time, just the lower 32bit and some kinds of flags...
Therefore if we want a useful timestamp we have to emulate the high bits.

This patch hopefully contains all necessary changes to support
firmwares for all devices up to atleast 2.13.3.0.
(or: LowerMAC Protocol Rev: 5.5 )
And this is a big win, since:
* newer firmwares are more stable and reliable than the old ones.
* no problems anymore with packages > 1399 octets (without lowering the MTU).
* monitor mode finally works on USB for more than just a few seconds.

It is obviously good for userspace to know up front which
interface modes a given piece of hardware might support (even
if adding such an interface might fail later because of
concurrency issues), so let's make cfg80211 aware of that.
For good measure, disallow adding interfaces in all other
modes so drivers don't forget to announce support for one mode
when they add it.

Ever wondered why the signal was so bad with p54 compared to madwifi, or intel?
Well, if you have revision 1 rssi calibration curve points in your EEPROM, then wonder no more.
The firmware wants a extra 1 byte padding for every curve point. But someone forgot to put
them into the EEPROM's data structure...
So now, big question: what happens when we blindly "memcpy" these data points?

(Only important for USB V1 Adaptors)
If an incoming frame wasn't accepted by p54_rx function
the skb will be reused for new frames...
But, we must not forget to set the skb's data pointers into
the same state in which it was initialized by p54u_init_urbs.
Otherwise we either end up with 16 bytes less on every requeue,
or if a new frame is worthy enough to be accepted, the data is
in the wrong place (urb->transfer_buffer wasn't updated!) and mac80211
has a hard time to recognize it...

priv->tx_hdr_len is set by the driver _after_ it called p54_init_common.
While this isn't much a problem for any PCI or ISL3887 cards/sticks,
because they don't need any extra header and therefore tx_hdr_len is
zero for them...

Commit b19fa1f, entitled "net: Delete NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE kconfig
option" breaks p54pci and p54usb.
Additionally, the old logic always tx'ed cts frames (if enabled)
with a short preamble when [rate > 3]. (i.e. with any 802.11g rate).
Of course this isn't that bad, but it's still wrong!
(This patch also clarifies the meanings of some of the fields in the tx
header for the hardware. -- JWL)
