svn commit: r305917 - head/sys/dev/iwm

[Adrian Chadd]

New Revision: 305917
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/305917

Log:
  [iwm] fix up RSSI calculations for both scan results and normal RX operations.
  
  * hard code a noise floor of -96 for now. The noise floor update code returns
    some "interesting" values that I can't map to anything useful right now.
  * Ensure a default noise floor is set - otherwise the initial scan results
    have a noise floor of '0'.
  * Fix up the RSSI calculation to be correctly relative to the noise floor.
    The RSSI routines return an absolute value in dBm - so fix this up.
  * Cap RSSI values appropriately.
  * Ensure we pass in a 1/2 dB unit value in to net80211.
  
  Tested:
  
  * Intel 7260, STA mode
