o change os glue API to be compatible with Linux so hal.o's can
be used on any system
o add ABI version to catch driver-HAL mismatches
o move hal version information from ah_osdep.c to binary component
o remove ath_hal_wait os glue component
o assign constant values to all enums to avoid potential compiler
incompatibilities
o add support for 3Com badged cards (PCI vendor ID)
o add support for IBM mini-pci cards (PCI device ID)
o expose MAC, PHY, and radio hardware revisions
o support for big-endian platforms
o new method to set slot time in us
o bug fix for 5211: beacon timers not setup correctly
o bug fix for 5212: don't crash when handed a 5112 radio
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.
This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

to a multiple of the access byte width. This overcomes errors in the
AML often found in Toshiba laptops. These errors were allowed by
the Microsoft ASL compiler and interpreter. This will NOT be imported
by ACPI-CA so make the change on our local branch. File was already off
the vendor branch.

all the fixes locally applied and submitted to the author. Not
included in BETA 5, but part of this import are:
o FreeBSD specific ifdefs to make this compile within a kernel.
These are limited to include directives and defines.
o Removal of unused variables, proper casts and initializations
to allow building with -Werror. This happens in code so has a
higher chance of causing future import conflicts but not enough
to worry about it.
I'm especially thankful that the author accepted the change to
replace DISABLE_TRACE with UWX_TRACE_ENABLE so that we can use it
in kernel config files without nasty mappings or indirections as
that would make the integration less perfect. Thanks Cary!
extended irq lists. If the resource has a trailing byte but not the full
resource string, do not attempt to parse the resource string. This fixes
panics on transition to battery and shutdown for Larry. Patch has been
submitted to vendor and they will incorporate in next release.

i/o ports by calling the implementation-detail level below inb() and
outb() instead of inb() and outb(). Unpessimizing the types is too
hard since they are mainly used in microcode.
o correct BSSID setup in ah_writeAssocid for 5211 and 5212 (fixes
reception of broadcast frames after association)
o correct transmit retry counts returned by 5211 in ah_procTxDesc
o add missing regulatory domain support that caused use of 11b channels to be
disallowed with some cards (e.g. mini-pci cards in certain IBM laptops)
o miscellaneous fixes to regulatory domain support
o increase size of 5212 ANI table to avoid overflow
o add monitor mode
o remove OS_QSORT support
o fix handling of HAL_RXDESC_INTREQ in ah_setupRxDesc
o rewrite 5212 descriptor handling for portability
