Revert a hunk in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hw.c introduced by
commit 2577c6e8f2 (ath9k_hw: Add
support for AR946/8x chipsets) that caused a nasty regression to
appear on my Acer Ferrari One (the box locks up entirely at random
times after the wireless has been started without any way to get
debug information out of it).

Nikolay noticed (by code review) that mac80211 can
attempt to stop an aggregation session while it is
already being stopped. So to fix it, check whether
stop is already being done and bail out if so.
Also move setting the STOPPING state into the lock
so things are properly atomic.

The generic powersaving code that determines after reception of a frame
whether the device should go back to sleep or whether is could stay
awake was calling rt2x00lib_config directly from RX tasklet context.
On a number of the devices this call can actually sleep, due to having
to confirm that the sleeping commands have been executed successfully.
Fix this by moving the call to rt2x00lib_config to a workqueue call.

When the connection monitor timer fires right before
suspend, the following will happen:
timer fires -> monitor_work gets queued
suspend calls ieee80211_sta_quiesce
ieee80211_sta_quiesce:
- deletes timer
- cancels monitor_work synchronously, running it
[note wrong order of these steps]
monitor_work runs, re-arming the timer
later, timer fires while system should be quiesced
This causes a warning:
WARNING: at net/mac80211/util.c:540 ieee80211_can_queue_work+0x35/0x40 [mac80211]()

Commit 4d9d88d1 by Scott James Remnant <keybuk@google.com> added
the .uevent() callback for the regulatory device used during
the platform device registration. The change was done to account
for queuing up udev change requests through udevadm triggers.
The change also meant that upon regulatory core exit we will now
send a uevent() but the uevent() callback, reg_device_uevent(),
also accessed last_request. Right before commiting device suicide
we free'd last_request but never set it to NULL so
platform_device_unregister() would lead to bogus kernel paging
request. Fix this and also simply supress uevents right before
we commit suicide as they are pointless.
This fix is required for kernels >= v2.6.39
$ git describe --contains 4d9d88d1
v2.6.39-rc1~468^2~25^2^2~21
The impact of not having this present is that a bogus paging
access may occur (only read) upon cfg80211 unload time. You
may also get this BUG complaint below. Although Johannes
could not reproduce the issue this fix is theoretically correct.

Commit 2e30168b ("libertas: terminate scan when stopping interface")
adds cleanup code to lbs_eth_stop to call cfg80211_scan_done if there's
an outstanding cfg80211_scan_request. However, it assumes that the
scan request was allocated via the cfg80211 stack. Libertas has
its own internal allocation method, kept track of with
priv->internal_scan. This doesn't set scan_req->wiphy, amongst other
things, which results in hitting a BUG() when we call cfg80211_scan_done
on the request.
This provides a function to take care of the low-level scan_req cleanup
details. We simply call that to deal with finishing up scan requests.
The bug we were hitting was:
