This value is not really very useful by itself,
yet some drivers (including iwlwifi until I can
figure out what it should do) use it. At least
rename it to "last_tsf" to indicate the meaning
and add a note that it may be really old.

I suspect the value may become useful combined
with the rx_status-&gt;mactime, but we don't (yet)
store that value and pass it to the driver.

The USB drivers don't support automatically waking up when in powersaving mode,
add a work object which will wakeup the device in time to receive the next beacon.
Based on that beacon, we either go back into powersaving mode, or we remain awake
to receive the buffered frames for our station.

Some part of the code, especially rt2x00lib_find_ie and rt2x00lib_rxdone_check_ps
are inspired on the code from carl9170.

<title>rt2x00: Implement get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions</title>

<content type='text'>
Implement the get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions, which will
allow clients to control the antenna for all non-11n hardware (Antenna handling
in rt2800 is still a bit magical, so we can't use the set_antenna for those drivers
yet).

To best support the set_antenna callback some modifications are needed in the
diversity handling. We should never look at the default antenna settings to determine
if software diversity is enabled. Instead we should set the diversity flag when
possible, which will allow the link_tuner to automatically pick up the tuning.

The two functions that are in rt2x00ht.c can be much better placed
closer to the places where the call-sites of these functions are (one
in rt2x00config.c and one in rt2x00queue.c) allowing us to make these
functions static.
Also, conditional compilations doesn't seem to be necessary anymore as
802.11n support is quite common nowadays.

This makes the code a bit easier readable and searchable.

<title>rt2x00: Split rt2x00dev-&gt;flags</title>

<id>7dab73b37f5e8885cb73efd25e73861f9b4f0246</id>
<content type='text'>
The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev-&gt;flags field,
has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching
the maximum number of bits which are available in the field.

A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only
during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device
requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are
fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are
the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact
that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others
the non-atomic variants are used.

By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags
which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically.
In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically.

This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.
