[083/114] iwlagn: fix rts cts protection

2.6.35-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

This is a backport of mainline commit
94597ab23ea10b3bdcba534be00a9f7b35791c07.
I removed the variable renamings from it
and made it apply on 2.6.35. It now also
incorporates some changes from commit
cfecc6b492162fb49209a83dc207f182b87ea27a
since those were required as well.
commit 94597ab23ea10b3bdcba534be00a9f7b35791c07 upstream.

Currently the driver will try to protect all frames,
which leads to a lot of odd things like sending an
RTS with a zeroed RA before multicast frames, which
is clearly bogus.

In order to fix all of this, we need to take a step
back and see what we need to achieve:
* we need RTS/CTS protection if requested by
the AP for the BSS, mac80211 tells us this
* in that case, CTS-to-self should only be
enabled when mac80211 tells us
* additionally, as a hardware workaround, on
some devices we have to protect aggregated
frames with RTS

To achieve the first two items, set up the RXON
accordingly and set the protection required flag
in the transmit command when mac80211 requests
protection for the frame.

To achieve the last item, set the rate-control
RTS-requested flag for all stations that we have
aggregation sessions with, and set the protection
required flag when sending aggregated frames (on
those devices where this is required).

Since otherwise bugs can occur, do not allow the
user to override the RTS-for-aggregation setting
from sysfs any more.

Finally, also clean up the way all these flags get
set in the driver and move everything into the
device-specific functions.
