APs to run at "full speed" where before they ran at just 1 or 2Mb/s.
The AP will adapt the data rate for each client based on packet
losses and the received signal strength.
I have also enabled rate adaptation for STA mode and for IBSS mode,
but the hardware gives us less control over the data rate in those
modes.
already support under another name:
wi0 at pcmcia0 function 0: NETGEAR MA401RA Wireless PC, Card, ISL37300PEval-RevA
wi0: 802.11 address <whatever>

- implement SIMPLEQ_REMOVE(head, elm, type, field). whilst it's O(n),
this mirrors the functionality of SLIST_REMOVE() (the other
singly-linked list type) and FreeBSD's STAILQ_REMOVE()
- remove the unnecessary elm arg from SIMPLEQ_REMOVE_HEAD().
this mirrors the functionality of SLIST_REMOVE_HEAD() (the other
singly-linked list type) and FreeBSD's STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD()
- remove notes about SIMPLEQ not supporting arbitrary element removal
- use SIMPLEQ_FOREACH() instead of home-grown for loops
- use SIMPLEQ_EMPTY() appropriately
- use SIMPLEQ_*() instead of accessing sqh_first,sqh_last,sqe_next directly
- reorder manual page; be consistent about how the types are listed
- other minor cleanups
The card is Type 1 CF card and it doesn't have firmware in.
So we need to download the firmware image into the card before
touching it.
XXX downloading code should be written in generic (bus independent),
but I don't have enough information for now.
Roaming mode can change value into 'firm mode' and disable.
Authentication mode can change into 'Open System authentication'
and 'Shared Key Authentication' with Prism2 chip.
wi_get_id() was introduced in order that chip might judge automatically
whether it is Prism2 chip. Therefore, a pp_prism2 entry in
"struct wi_pcmcia_product" became unnecessary.
