o call ieee80211_encap in ieee80211_start so frames passed down to drivers
are already encapsulated
o remove ieee80211_encap calls in drivers
o fixup wi so it recreates the 802.3 head it requires from the 802.11
header contents
o move fast-frame aggregation from ath to net80211 (conditional on
IEEE80211_SUPPORT_SUPERG):
- aggregation is now done in ieee80211_start; it is enabled when the
packets/sec exceeds ieee80211_ffppsmin (net.wlan.ffppsmin) and frames
are held on a staging queue according to ieee80211_ffagemax
(net.wlan.ffagemax) to wait for a frame to combine with
- drivers must call back to age/flush the staging queue (ath does this
on tx done, at swba, and on rx according to the state of the tx queues
and/or the contents of the staging queue)
- remove fast-frame-related data structures from ath
- add ieee80211_ff_node_init and ieee80211_ff_node_cleanup to handle
per-node fast-frames state (we reuse 11n tx ampdu state)
o change ieee80211_encap calling convention to include an explicit vap
so frames coming through a WDS vap are recognized w/o setting M_WDS
With these changes any device able to tx/rx 3Kbyte+ frames can use fast-frames.

o remove ic_myaddr from ieee80211com
o change ieee80211_ifattach to take the mac address of the physical device
and use that to setup the lladdr.
o replace all references to ic_myaddr in drivers by IF_LLADDR
o related cleanups (e.g. kill dead code)

o break out version-related code to simplify rev'ing the protocol
o add parameter validation macros so checks that appear multiple places
are consistent (and easy to change)
o add protocol version check when looking for a scan candidate
o improve scan debug output format
o rewrite beacon update handling to calculate a bitmask of changed values
and pass that down through the driver callback so drivers can optimize work
o do slot bounds check before use when parsing received beacons
o add 9280 attach that sets up ini, cal, etc.
o new rf backend for 9280 and later parts
o split ini setup and spur mitigation support out to methods
and provide 9280-specific support
o minor fixups to shared code to handle 9280-specific work
Obtained from: Atheros (ini values and some code)
o add ah_configPCIE and ah_disablePCIE for drivers to configure PCIE
power save operation (modeled after ath9k, may need changes)
o add private state flag to indicate if device is PCIE (replaces private
hack in 5212 code)
o add serdes programming ini bits for 5416 and later parts and setup
for each part (5416 and 9160 logic hand-crafted from existing routines);
5212 remains open-coded but is now hooked in via ah_configPCIE
o add PCIE workaround gunk
o add ar5416AttachPCIE for iodomatic code used by 5416 and later parts
o add output mux support
o gpio pin count is chip-dependent
o 9280 and 9285 do input handling different
o hookup gpio interrupts
o no need to save/restore soft led state around reset
o mark phy type to indicate 1/2 or 1/4-rate operation
o use phy type instead of channel attributes to identify 1/2 and 1/4-rate
operation
o general cleanup of code including move phy constants to ah_internal.h
Eventually this code should go away and we should use the net0211 equivalents.

warning in the subsequent caller ar5416FillVpdTable(), which doesn't
initialize those arguments.
Change getLowerUpperIndex() to assign values to indexL and indexR even
in the case of assertion failure.
