ath9k: add DFS radar pulse processing
This initial DFS module provides basic functionality to deal with radar pulses reported by the Atheros DFS HW pulse detector. The reported data is evaluated and basic plausibility checks are performed to filter false pulses. Passing radar pulses are forwarded to pattern detectors which are not yet implemented. (Some modifications to actually use ATH9K_DFS_DEBUGFS based on comments from Julian Calaby <julian.calaby@gmail.com>. -- JWL) Signed-off-by: Zefir Kurtisi <zefir.kurtisi@neratec.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
