It seems strchr() and strrchr() are used more often than index() and
rindex(). Therefore, simply migrate all kernel code to use it.
For the XFS code, remove an empty line to make the code identical to
the code in the Linux kernel.
This shows that the majority of the weird traffic I see here are probe
frames that haven't been sent out, but I can also trigger this condition
by doing ICMP w/ -i 0.3 - enough to trigger the TX during actual scanning,
but not fast enough to stop scanning from occuring.

decoded ranges. Pass any request for a specific range that fails because
it is not in a decoded range for an ACPI Host-PCI bridge up to the parent
to see if it can still be allocated. This is based on the assumption that
many BIOSes are inconsistent/broken and that settings programmed into BARs
or resources assigned to other built-in components are more trustworthy than
the list of decoded resource ranges in _CRS. This effectively limits the
decoded ranges to only being used for "wildcard" ranges when allocating
fresh resources for a BAR, etc. At some point I would like to only be
this permissive during an early scan of firmware-assigned resources during
boot and to be strict about all later allocations, but that isn't viable
currently.

no reason why it should be limited to 64K of DFLTPHYS. DMA data tag is any
way set to allow MAXPHYS, S/G lists (chain elements) are sufficient and
overflows are also handled. On my tests even 1MB I/Os are working fine.

doing split software/hardware LED configuration, we can now simply
treat "softled" as an "output" mux type.
This works fine on this DWA-552. Previous generation (pre-11n NICs) don't
have a GPIO mux - only input/output configuration - so they ignore this
field.
The hardware (MAC) LED blinking involves a few things:
* Selecting which GPIO pins map to the MAC "power" and "network" lines;
* Configuring the MAC LED state (associated, scanning, idle);
* Configuring the MAC LED blinking type and speed.
The AR5416 HAL configures the normal blinking setup - ie, blink rate based
on TX/RX throughput. The default AR5212 HAL doesn't program in any
specific blinking type, but the default of 0 is the same.
This code introduces a few things:
* The hardware led override is configured via sysctl 'hardled';
* The MAC network and power LED GPIO lines can be set, or left at -1
if needed. This is intended to allow only one of the hardware MUX
entries to be configured (eg for PCIe cards which only have one LED
exposed.)
TODO:
* For AR2417, the software LED blinking involves software blinking the
Network LED. For the AR5416 and later, this can just be configured
as a GPIO output line. I'll chase that up with a subsequent commit.
* Add another software LED blink for "Link", separate from "activity",
which blinks based on the association state. This would make my
D-Link DWA-552 have consistent and useful LED behaviour (as they're
marked "Link" and "Activity."
* Don't expose the hardware LED override unless it's an AR5416 or later,
as the previous generation hardware doesn't have this multiplexing
setup.
Some of the NICs I have here power up with the LEDs blinking, which is
incorrect. The blinking should only occur when the NIC is attempting
to associate.
* On powerup, set the state to HAL_LED_INIT, which turns on the "Power" MAC
LED but leaves the "Network" MAC LED the way it is.
* On resume, also init it to HAL_LED_INIT unless in station mode, where
it's forced to HAL_LED_RUN. Hopefully the net80211 state machine will
call newstate() at some point, which will refiddle the LEDs.
I've tested this on a handful of 11n and pre-11n NICs. The blinking
behaviour is slightly more sensible now.
relying on what the register defaults are.
This forces the blink mode to be proportional to the TX and RX frames
which match the RX filter.
This (along with a few tweaks to if_ath_led.c to configure the correct
GPIO pins) allows my DWA-552 AR5416 NIC to blink the LEDs in a useful
fashion, however those LEDs are marked "Link" and "Act(ivity)", which
don't really map well to the "power" / "network" LED interface which
the MAC provides. Some further tinkering is needed to see what other
useful operating modes are possible.

The reference driver directly enables/disables the LED state as required,
rather than nailing it up like it currently is. That'll have to come
later by adding some further HAL methods.

* As a preparation for AR9287 GPIO support, add in the AR9287 GPIO mask.
* Fix the association mask values; these are post-shift values but were

in the wrong place and the link LED (at least on my d-link AR5416
NIC) giving totally incorrect blink patterns.
Some users were reporting concurrent resets _were_ occuring - ie,
either two ath_reset()s ran at the same time (likely one on each CPU)
or ath_reset() versus ath_chan_change().
Instead, this now tries to grab the serialisation semaphore and will
pause() for a while if it fails. It will always eventually succeed though
and will log an error if it hits the recursion situation.
All of this stuff needs to die a horrible death at some point and be
replaced with a properly serialising method of programming this stuff
(eg using the net80211 taskqueue for all of this stuff.) The trouble
is figuring out how to handle the concurrent ioctl() based things without
introducing more LORs (which is another reason why I haven't just wrapped
all of this stuff in large, long-lived locks, a-la what Linux can get
away with.)

This doesn't fix compilation w/out AH_SUPPORT_AR5416 as all of the software

going on with the occasional garbage rs_antenna field reported by AR9285
users.
I've discovered that the 11n NICs only fill out the entire RX status
descriptor on the final descriptor in an aggregate. Some of the fields
(notably RSSI) are complete nonsense for A-MPDU subframes. This may
be another example of this.
The driver doesn't currently toss out statistics for non-final aggregate
frames. It's likely that this should be done.
If any users hit this particular debugging message they should report it
immediately to freebsd-wireless@freebsd.org - please ensure you have
ATH_DEBUG enabled so it prints out the full receive descriptor.
