32d08d2dea ath: fix world regulatory domain fix-up so that all regulatory rules are processed
r24503 (trunk) and r24505 (backfire) revised the regulatory rules used
for the ath drivers' world regulatory domains in the 5GHz band by
opening up channels 36, 40, 44, and 48 to being used without the
*_PASSIVE_SCAN and *_NO_IBSS flags set. This was done by breaking
ATH9K_5GHZ_5150_5350 into two REG_RULES. The various struct
ieee80211_regdomains that reference these rules in their reg_rules
fields need to have their n_reg_rules fields updated accordingly.

5903f4a167 mac80211: Improve ath5k/ar71xx PCI bug WAR
It has been confirmed by Atheros that this PCI bug affects the RX side only,
so we can keep the 128B DMA size for TX.

With this change we can double the thruput of ath5k from 15Mps to 30Mbps.

We have been using this patch since more than 6 month in a production
environment without problems and a significant performance improvement.

It has also been said to fix HW encryption:
