versions of the firmware. It responds more slowly to commands, and we
bogusly failed them. We assume that all versions of the intersil
firmware before 1.0 are 10 times slower and will give it 10x the time
to finish.
# for 5.2 we should always just assume 5s.
one tx buffer for these cards. The old driver only used one. We use
1 for symbol, and 3 for prism cards.
o Don't do the maximum loops thing in the ISR. In fact, revert to the
old interrupt handler. Lucent cards don't seem to work too well if
you don't disable/enable interrupts from the card in the ISR.
Between these two changes, Lucent cards suck less. They work in
autoselect mode only. And seem to get 1Mbps or 2Mbps only. Setting a
specific media speed doesn't work, and I've had a few issues even with
these patches. They turn a former brick into a nearly useful card.
These patches work on the prism 2 and 2.5 PC Card cards that I have.
I've not tested this on PCI cards. I suspect, but couldn't find
proof, that they were the reason that the ISR was changed so radically
from its FreeBSD roots in NetBSD. We might need to have a variant ISR
if so.
(apparently by markus@, at least committed by him). This has the
advantage of not using the bad IV's from Fluhrer/Mantin/Shamir as well
as bringing the drivers a little closer together.
Also use a few constants in place of magic numbers in one place.

wrote. This code was for 4.5-release, so I've ported it to -current
and made a few minor tweaks. The biggest non-style tweak was to not
make access point the default.
More changes will be needed to get this actually working, but I wanted
to get a relatively pure baseline. This doesn't seem to break what
works now.

Also, added Sony, Lucent Embedded Ids and fix minor bugs for lucent
cards (and submit those changes back to ichiro-san)

1) Properly detect the Symbol based cards (The 3Com Airconnect and their
ilk) and only reset them *ONCE* ever. This appears to make them work,
but more testing is needed. The tests that would wedge up my machine
completely now appear to work, but I have not real access points
handy.
2) Report both the Station firmware and the Primary firmware on Prism
based cards. On Lucent based cards, only report the station firmware
since that's all it supports. On symbol cards, report the symbol
specific firmware name as its station firmware.
3) Better Prism 2.5 and 3 family names. We really need to go table
driven for this.
4) Workaround for bugs in Intersil's firmware is only needed for at most
0.8.2 and earlier, since 0.8.3 and later appear to work.
