functions into the two drivers that use them (atw and rtw.)
this code is not generic enough to be used by other drivers and
there is no chance that it will ever be used in newer driver since
it supports 802.11b only.
plus, it hurts my eyes each time i look into ieee80211_output.c.

On a transmit FIFO overflow (err, actually an underflow...) reset
both the transmit & receive sections of the MAC.
Fix comments and debug printfs: Tx FIFOs underflow, they don't
overflow.

Miscellaneous Realtek RTL8180L driver improvements:
3 Revamp handling of transmit descriptor rings.
4 Reliably IFF_OACTIVE when transmit descriptors are available, to
stop the transmit section of the driver from freezing up.
5 Fix beacon transmission in adhoc and hostap modes. XXX There is
a wart in hostap mode, where beacons are transmitted at 1/2 the
correct rate. Load beacon descriptors when the RTW_INTR_BINT
interrupt arrives; schedule RTW_INTR_BINT 1ms ahead of the target
beacon time.
6 Recover more gracefully from tx/rx errors: avoid
transmitter/receiver/chip resets. Try to re-synchronize software
state with hardware state---e.g., load next descriptor pointer
from hardware.
7 Activate the transmit watchdog timer for beacons as well as other
packets.
8 Introduce rtw_idle() that waits for transmit DMA to finish; call
it before resetting the transmitter.

partially derived from rtl8180-sa2400 Linux driver.
GCT refuse to release documentation so this is more than
likely not as optimal as it could be.

why? rtw uses the smc93cx6 EEPROM and a separate diff will allow
accessing it without depending on the bus_space_* functions. this is
required for the RTL8187L.

rtw.c -r 1.45 from dyoung@NetBSD:
Log Message:
Misc. changes to improve ad hoc mode and to enable hostap mode:
Fix the work-around for the NIC bug where it skips to rx
descriptor 0. The driver used to skip to rx descriptor 1.
Hopefully this stops the out-of-order packet reception that
Charles Hannum saw.
When debugging is enabled, print rx-descriptor status flags
before printing the rx bit rate.
Add a debug message for when a beacon tx buffer reclamation.
Reset IFF_OACTIVE when we reset the transmitter.
Pass the consolidated LED state, a struct rtw_led_state,
to rtw_led_attach.
Choose the bit-rate for management frames (1Mb/s) at the
same place we choose for all other frames.
Do not use the NIC's short preamble or RTS options for
management frames. Label beacons for the NIC.
Following a Linux driver, take care not to zero arbitrary
bits in the TPPOLL register.
Use the new idiom for IBSS merges: disable transmitter,
kick the state machine.
Add a second descriptor to the beacon ring.
The NIC seems to like this much better.

In rtw_detach, flag the rtw as "invalid" (RTW_F_INVALID). Do not
try to power-down the RF section of an invalid rtw.

log message:
Program the LEDs based on operating state and packet activity.
* On a Revision F RTL8180, blink LED1 at 1Hz to indicate
scan/authenticate/associate states. In the run state, turn LED1
on. In every state, blink LED1 at 5Hz to indicate non-beacon
tx/rx activity. I would like to use two LEDs, but in all my
Rev. F instances, LED0 is not wired to an LED; instead, the
first LED is wired to indicate that the card's power is on.
* On a Revision D RTL8180, program the LEDs so that LED0 indicates
Tx, and LED1 indicates Rx. The Rx LED will blink annoyingly if
there are beacons in the air, but at least the Tx LED is useful.
* Store the hardware revision in the softc to support my futile
attempt at programming LEDs for both Rev. D and Rev. F parts;
I never did get Rev. D LEDs to work right.
* Add a debug flag RTW_DEBUG_LED for the LED transitions.

Make the node table into an LRU cache: least-recently used nodes
are at the end of the node queue. Change the reference-counting
discipline: ni->ni_refcnt indicates how many times net80211 has
granted ni to the driver. Every node in the table with ni_refcnt=0
is eligible to be garbage-collected. The mere presence of a node
in the table does not any longer indicate its auth/assoc state;
nodes have a ni_state variable, now.
While I am here, patch ieee80211_find_node_for_beacon to do a "best
match" by bssid/ssid/channel, not a "perfect match." This keeps
net80211 from caching duplicate nodes in the table.

From part of rtw.c rev 1.42:
log message:
Add RTW_TPPOLL_ALL, RTW_TPPOLL_SALL to start and stop, respectively,
all of the transmit rings.
Revamp the transmit section to make better use of all the transmit
rings: beacon queue, high-, low-, and medium-priority rings. Put
beacon frames on the beacon ring. All other management frames,
and data frames, go on the medium-priority ring. Power-save data
frames go on the high-priority ring. (Note that powersaving is
not implemented!) This is a work in progress.
Send all 802.11 Management frames at 1Mbps.
After we put a packet on a transmit ring, tickle the right bit in
the TPPOLL to tell RTL8180. Stop all rings on error and in rtw_stop.
And rtw.c rev 1.33:
log message:
Consolidate variables related to the rx ring in sc_rxdesc_blk,
which is a struct rtw_rxdesc_blk.
Put a copy of the DMA tag and the DMA map into the rx- and tx-ring
blocks so that I don't have to pass them to subroutines all of the
time.
