Commit 94e532d1a ("ath6kl: Fix system freeze under heavy data load")
aligns the skb data without checking if the skb is cloned. Because of
this ath6kl can corrupt the local TCP stack information that can result
in TCP retransmission failing and TCP connections stalling.
To avoid the corruption we need to copy the skb. Now the alignment
in ath6kl_htc_tx_buf_align() doesn't corrupt TCP packets anymore (and is
not even used for the cloned skb's that got copied since the alignment
of the data is handled at the copy time).

ath6kl: pass only unicast frames for aggregation
When pinging form ar6003 to the AP RTT was high even when power save was
disabled:
100 packets transmitted, 97 received, 3% packet loss, time 99125ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.875/46.733/795.506/139.181 ms
After some investigation one reason for this was that received
multicast traffic confused the aggrecation logic and caused 400 ms
timeouts when receiving multicast frames from AP.
A simple way to fix is to pass only unicast frames for aggregation. This
improves RTT:
100 packets transmitted, 99 received, 1% packet loss, time 99144ms

This fixes the BSS "update" just before the connected or roamed event.
The previous implementation was completely broken: it forced a hardcoded
signal strength and IEs from Association _Request_ frame instead of any
Beacon information. This broke various things, including PMKSA caching.
The current workaround for creating a dummy BSS entry before the roamed
event is not exactly ideal, but that is quite a bit better than the
previous state. As a future improvement, cfg80211 could potentially be
extended to allow this type of use or ath6kl could delay sending the
roamed event before receiving a BSS info event.

This function is called for both types of queues: Tx queues and cmd
queue. This didn't take in count the fact that in Tx queues, tfds are
mapped as TO_DEVICE (besides the first TB), whereas in cmd queue, all
TBs are mapped as BIDI.
Hence, tx_queue_free unmapped the second (and higher) TB of each tfd
in the cmd queue as TO_DEVICE, whereas they must be freed as BIDI.
This means that if a multi TFD is in flight while we unload the
driver (which is quite unlikely but can happen), we will get the
warning below.

iwlagn: warn about buggy fw that doesn't set SEQ_RX_FRAME
The way we check if there is host command that should be reclaimed is
way too complicated. We should have a clear indication from the fw.
The fw is expected to set the SEQ_RX_FRAME bit if the frame was
originated by the fw which indicates to the driver that there is no
host command to free.
Somehow, there seem to have been buggy fw out there, hence the very
old comment.
This code checks if we have still buggy fw out there.

Not doing so, the caldata continues to retain older history
values learned on that channel. It is always safer to start
noise floor calibration from the defaults after the assoication.
So this patch resets the nf history buffer when none of the
STA vifs are associated.

ath9k: load noise floor from history after the full chip reset
Currently during the full reset, the nf calibration is always
restarted from the defaults. The noise floor history buffers are
never be used again after the scan and ath reset. This patch
ensures that nf histories are always be used that helps to
improve the signal quality on congested environment

Do the magnitude/phase coeff correction only if the outlier
is detected. Updating wrong magnitude/phase coeff factor
impacts not only tx gain setting but also leads to poor
performance in congested networks. In the clear environment
the impact is very minimal because the outlier happens
very rarely according to the past experiment. It occured
less than once every 1000 calibrations.

ath9k_hw: fix setting the hardware diversity flag
ath9k_hw_set_diversity is only called from init.c where it cannot affect
the hardware setting because it's cleared on the next reset.
Instead of using a PHY op for something that's supposed to be initialized
statically, set the register value directly in the INI override function.
