mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.

This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.

The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

ath9k: Enable short repeat by default on ath9k_htc

Normal FFT reports generate a LOT of data, to save resources
enable short repeat by default also on ath9k_htc (it's already
enabled by default on ath9k). This can always be changed from
userspace if needed.

ath9k_htc: add new WMI_REG_RMW_CMDID command

Since usb bus add extra delay on each request, a command
with read + write requests is too expensive. We can dramtically

In my tests, this patch will reduce channel scan time
for about 5-10 seconds.

ath9k_htc: advertise support for TDLS

Based on a quick test with AR9271, TDLS seems to be working fine.

Tests were done with 2 Atheros AR9271 based devices with firmware
1.3 (sha1 8d49f928aa40ac53c729189bff1333cd373a7fb5), associated
with a WAP54G access point. TDLS worked fine both in WPA2 mode and
without encryption. Stations maintained ping flood traffic between
each other and towards the AP without significant losses.

Not tested with AR7010.

TDLS was enabled in earlier patches the same way for other
Atheros drivers:
ath9k (fd6562344dea2b8b2a5d644cf971f4e56004500a),
and carl9170 (d1f3de71a584a82ee4e84505fce9acccf40215ff).

PS could be enabled by userspace based on various factors
like battery usage etc. Since PS in ath9k is just broken
and has been untested for years, remove support for it, but
allow a user to explicitly enable it using a module parameter."

ath9k_htc: do some initial hardware configuration

Currently we configure harwdare and clock, only after

There is no software way to reset adpter.

This patch add initial configuration and set it in
disabled state, to avoid this freeze. Behaviour of this patch
should be similar to: ifconfig wlan0 up; ifconfig wlan0 down.
