Introduce NAPI for Rx and Tx completion.
This fixes packet reordering that happens when Rx handled right in
the IRQ: netif_rx puts packet in 'percpu' queue, then network stack
fetches packets from 'percpu' queues for processing, with different
pattern of queue switching. As result, network stack see packets
in different order. This causes hard to understand TCP throughput
degradation in about 30min
Complete polling if only one packet was processed - this eliminates
empty polls that would be otherwise done at the end of each burst

Waiting for all subframes of an existing aggregation session to drain
before allowing mac80211 to start a new one is fragile and deadlocks
caused by this behavior have been observed.
Since mac80211 has proper synchronization for aggregation session
start/stop handling, a better approach to session handling is to simply
allow mac80211 to start a new session at any time. This requires
changing the code to discard any packets outside of the BlockAck window
in the A-MPDU software retry code.
This patch implements the above and also simplifies the code.

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was

code.
Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all

In some cases it can be useful to change the MAC address of a virtual
interface to something that's completely different from the EEPROM
stored MAC address. In this case it is a bad idea to use the EEPROM MAC
address for calculating the BSSID mask, as that would make it too wide.
In one case a few devices have been observed to send ACKs for many
packets on the channel not directed at them, which results in a neat
Denial of Service attack on the channel.

If AR_CRCErr, AR_PHYErr, AR_DecryptCRCErr or AR_MichaelErr is indicated
in the rx status word, but AR_RxFrameOK is also set, the descriptor
contents are typically invalid. This can show up as a warning about
invalid MCS rates in a frame. Even with those checks in place, a
descriptor with invalid MCS rates can still sometimes make it through to
the driver (mostly on older hardware like AR91xx).

As the comment in ath_get_next_rx_buf indicates, if a descriptor with
the done bit set follows one with the done bit cleared, both descriptors
should be discarded, however the driver is not doing that yet.
To fix this, use the rs->rs_more flag as an indicator that the following
frame should be discarded. This also helps with the split buffer case:
if the first part of the frame is discarded, the following parts need to
be discarded as well, since they contain no valid header or usable data.
