definitions instead. We don't change usb.h for now to stay compatible

undo rev 1.10 "implement a zero-copy RX data path".
working with a fixed number of Rx buffers doesn't work well.
fixes problems with blocked incoming traffic.

Mechanical removal of USBBASEDEVICE. No binary change.

The device doesn't always detach gracefully from the bus after a firmware
upload. We thus force a port reset and a re-exploration on the parent hub
after firmware upload.

In uath_newstate(), if we're called from a process context, we don't need
to schedule a USB task. This fixes a problem in uath_stop(): when moving
to the S_INIT state, the task was scheduled after the device was reset.

Don't abort the RX firmware command pipe in uath_stop(), otherwise we will
never receive commands ACKs from the firmware anymore. We now survive to
an ifconfig down up.

implement a zero-copy RX data path.
instead of copying the xfer buffer's content into a mbuf cluster, attach
the xfer buffer as a mbuf external storage and pass it to the net80211

maintain a reference count on the softc structure and wait in detach()
until all references have been released by the network layer.

add new uath(4) ids and fix existing ones.

Initial import of uath(4), a driver for Atheros USB2.0 AR5005UG/AR5005UX
chipsets. Based on a black-box analysis of the Windows binary driver.
Requires a firmware that is not freely redistributable

Initial import of uath(4), a driver for Atheros USB2.0 AR5005UG/AR5005UX
chipsets. Based on a black-box analysis of the Windows binary driver.
Requires a firmware that is not freely redistributable (see man uath).
The driver handles both pre- and post-firmware devices.

Still a bit experimental but Tx/Rx works great in BSS mode (on i386).
No 802.11a, IBSS, or HostAP modes yet but there's more to come.

Great thanks to jsg@ for digging the USB IDs out of the Windows driver.

Committed over a D-Link DWL-G132.
