The problem mostly stems from all of the special case handling of

So, to fix this, do the grafting operation the same way we do for TX
qdiscs. Which means that dev_activate() and dev_deactivate() now do
the "qdisc_sleeping <--> qdisc" transitions on dev->rx_queue too.
Future simplifications are possible now, mainly because it is

rtl8187: Fix for TX sequence number problem
"mac80211: fix TX sequence numbers" broke rtl8187. This
patch makes the same kind of fix that was done for rt2x00. Note that
this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons.
In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state,
not the vif state.

mac80211: append CONFIG_ to MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG in net/mac80211/tx.c.
In net/mac80211/tx.c, there are some #ifdef which checks
MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
(which in fact is never set) instead of
CONFIG_MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG, as should be.
This patch replaces MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG with

rt2x00: Force full register config after start()
rt2x00 will only perform configuration changes from
mac80211 when the configuration option has changed.
This means it keeps track of the current active configuration
and will check these values when the config() callback function
is used.
However this causes breakage when the interface has been
brought down and up again, since all stored active values
aren't reset while the registers might have.
This is for example the case with rt61pci antenna registers which
will jump to invalid values when the interface has been started.
To make sure a full configuration takes place after the start()
callback function, a new flag is added which will be checked
during config() and skips the "what's changed" phase.

When IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is not set,
the driver should disable hardware sequence counting

This fixes QOS sequence counting, since that is one
of the cases where mac80211 provides a seperate

By moving the sequence counting code to rt2x00queue
we make sure that _all_ frames get the sequence counter,

When setting up a beacon template, the length of the beacon is
calculated with the assumption that the SKB already contains
the Tx descriptor. In the case of beacons it doesn't.
This patch undoes the damage by adding the Tx descriptor length
to the beacon length. This is safe, because the shortest possible
beacon is longer than the Tx header.

rt2x00: Fix EIFS timing value
Olivier reported a difference between the EIFS
values used in the legacy driver and the one in
the rt2x00 drivers.
In rt2x00 the value was
( SIFS + (8 * (IEEE80211_HEADER + ACK_SIZE)) )
which comes down to 314us while the legacy driver uses the value 364us
This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime
This patch will fix this by adding the DIFS by the above value,
and creating a SHORT_EIFS define which uses the SHORT_DIFS.

rfkill: fix led-trigger unregister order in error unwind
rfkill needs to unregister the led trigger AFTER a call to
rfkill_remove_switch(), otherwise it will not update the LED state,
possibly leaving it ON when it should be OFF.
To make led-trigger unregistering safer, guard against unregistering a
trigger twice, and also against issuing trigger events to a led trigger
that was unregistered. This makes the error unwind paths more resilient.
Refer to "rfkill: Register LED triggers before registering switch".
