c8f994eec2 mac80211: purge remain-on-channel items when suspending
They can't really be executed while suspended and could
trigger work warnings, so abort all ROC items. When the
system resumes the notifications about this will be
delivered to userspace which can then act accordingly
(though it will assume they were canceled/finished.)

ae76eef027 mac80211: return new mpath from mesh_path_add()
Most times that mesh_path_add() is called, it is followed by
a lookup to get the just-added mpath.  We can instead just
return the new mpath in the case that we allocated one (or the
existing one if already there), so do that.  Also, reorder the
code in mesh_path_add a bit so that we don't need to allocate
in the pre-existing case.

The mesh hwmp debug message is a bit confusing. The "sending PREP

the PREQ message and the "received PREP from %pM" should be the MAC

If a ROC item is canceled just as it expires, the work
struct may be scheduled while it is running (and waiting

To fix this don't free it when aborting is requested but
instead mark it as "to be freed", which makes the work a
no-op and allows freeing it outside.

3e8b1eb21c mac80211/minstrel_ht: improve rate selection stability
Under load, otherwise stable rates can easily fluctuate because of
collisions. In my tests on a clean channel, the success probability of
the max throughput rate often stays somewhere between 90% and 100% under
load. This can cause some unnecessary switching to lower rates.
This patch improves stability by treating success probability values
between 90% and 100% the same.

average throughput by a few mbit/s.
