2774fa543e Fix compilation on Linux 3.1 broken by VLAN API changes
Don't define IEEE80211_VLAN_TAG_USED on Linux 3.1 and newer.  Don't use
vlan_hwaccel_rx() if IEEE80211_VLAN_TAG_USED is not 1.

59982ec746 Formatting changes:
* Remove comments that merely duplicate the code (i.e., they don't provide information on Why or explain the opaque)
 * Rename some variable for consistency
 * Line length -> 80 chars
 * Reorder non-dependent code blocks in a function to make it more readable (at least to me)

ec5e8e0a11 Re-enable skb debug destructor, chaining to original when present.
Split skb and node debug flags - one ending in _ref tracks minute changes to reference counts, while the non _ref flag trackes more coarse grained debug events.
Fix a node reference leak before skb_orphan detected by the debug destructor.
Fix debug flag display order for athdebug and 80211debug so that the shorter
name comes first and matches, otherwise only the _ref flags match.

ebe8ee9736 This patch augments the current reference counting code with:
* Counters for total outstanding instances for each resource type (skb, ath_node and ath_buf)
* One pair of acquisition/release functions per resource type in unlocked and one in locked
* Adds some more _debug versions of functions in the call chain that acquire/release resources so that the original func/line in the driver as well as the func/line that affected the resource use can be shown in the trace.  Intermediate stack frames aren't necessary to trace the leaks.
* Changes naming convention for "lock-required" functions to suffix _locked for the versions that expect locking, to be consistent with some other places in the code.
* Consolidate debug messages to the helper functions that actually affect the reference count or acquire/release a resource
* Additional sanity checks and leak detection (esp for detecting node ref leaks through skb)
* skb references are nulled out by the new sbk unref/free function.

I've tested these changes extensively and found lots of cases where we didn't get enough node references when cloning skbuff, and where the kernel drops packets due to performance issues and leaks our node references.

With these changes and the tracing enabled I have verified that:

* TX BUF: tx buffers always go down to zero when the tx queue is done, and you can watch tx queue usage ratio go up and down again as the driver is working.  There are no leaks here at the moment, although there *are* some in the madwifi-dfs branch during CAC at the moment.

* skbuff leaks in all the common flows are fixed.  We were leaking node references in a lot of places where kernel was dropping skb's due to congestion and we were failing to increment node references when cloning skbuffs.  These are now detected, as are skbuffs that are reaped by the kernel while still holding a node reference.

* the ath_node count works correctly and on an idle system we get about 5 references per station table node, with 2 node instances per VAP.  One for the bss and one for the node in the station table, I believe.  The ath_node count goes up and down but always lands back at the stable number based on the vaps you have configured and the number of actual stations in the station table.  The point here is that it's pretty constant what you will see over time, despite excessive node creation/release in our code during input (esp input_all).  Thank god for the slab allocator.
