kernel: mac80211: add pending ath9k EEPROM swapping patches There are two types of swapping the EEPROM data in the ath9k driver. Before this series one type of swapping could not be used without the other. The first type of swapping looks at the "magic bytes" at the start of the EEPROM data and performs swab16 on the EEPROM contents if needed. The second type of swapping is EEPROM format specific and swaps specific fields within the EEPROM itself (swab16, swab32 - depends on the EEPROM format). With this series the second part now looks at the EEPMISC register inside the EEPROM, which uses a bit to indicate if the EEPROM data is Big Endian (this is also done by the FreeBSD kernel). This has a nice advantage: currently there are some out-of-tree hacks (in OpenWrt and LEDE) where the EEPROM has a Big Endian header on a Big Endian system (= no swab16 is performed) but the EEPROM itself indicates that it's data is Little Endian. Until now the out-of-tree code simply did a swab16 before passing the data to ath9k, so ath9k first did the swab16 - this also enabled the format specific swapping. These out-of-tree hacks are still working with the new logic, but it is recommended to remove them. This implementation is based on a discussion with Arnd Bergmann who raised concerns about the robustness and portability of the swapping logic in the original OF support patch review, see [0]. After a second round of patches (= v1 of this series) neither Arnd Bergmann nor I were really happy with the complexity of the EEPROM swapping logic. Based on a discussion (see [1] and [2]) we decided that ath9k should use a defined format (specifying the endianness of the data - I went with __le16 and __le32) when accessing the EEPROM fields. A benefit of this is that we enable the EEPMISC based swapping logic by default, just like the FreeBSD driver, see [3]. On the devices which I have tested (see below) ath9k now works without having to specify the "endian_check" field in ath9k_platform_data (or a similar logic which could provide this via devicetree) as ath9k now detects the endianness automatically. Only EEPROMs which are mangled by some out-of-tree code still need the endian_check flag (or one can simply remove that mangling from the out-of-tree code).

Subject: [v2 PATCH 4/7] ath9k: replace eeprom_param EEP_MINOR_REV with
get_eeprom_rev
get_eeprom(ah, EEP_MINOR_REV) and get_eeprom_rev(ah) are both doing the
same thing: returning the EEPROM revision (12 lowest bits). Make the
code consistent by using get_eeprom_rev(ah) everywhere.
