The following series adds WME QoS for ath5k by using four hardware queues
and adding the necessary callback function for mac80211 to configure the
queue parameters.

It is based on my last series ("PATCH 0/8] ath: Move key cache functions 
to ath common") and Bobs reordered base.c ("ath5k: reorder base.c to remove 
fwd decls"). Please let me know if you have any merge issues and i'll resend
the whole series.

Unfortunately, if we use multiple queues, the hardware can get stuck, and we
don't know a better solution than resetting the hardware in this case. This
is the same situation as in ath9k and i have copied the workaround from
there.
