It looks like mac80211 can request the driver to start beaconing with
a beacon interval of zero in some cases (at least for mesh point). This
does not sound correct and something may need to be fixed in
mac80211. However, taken into account the unpleasantness of getting
stuck in an infinite busy loop with rtnl_lock held, let's add a quick
workaround in the driver to avoid the worst symptom while someone more
familiar with the mesh implementation can figure out what should be done
with mac80211 as far as beacon interval configuration is concerned.

When the SME requests to associate to an open AP
ieee80211_sta_set_extra_ie() can be called with zero IE
length. When this happens or when the extra IE has already
been set -EALREADY is passed down and the supplicant will
complain that the operation is already in progress and it will
not let us associate. We correct this by treating -EALREADY
from ieee80211_sta_set_extra_ie() as a success just as we do
for wext.

I have a TrendNet 652-BRP running OpenWRT + ath9k very well.  The only
problem is that the beacon gets stuck maybe once a day.  After
Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan's "ath9k: cleanup beacon parameters
configuration" patch, ath9k would nearly re-configure the beacons after it
detected the stuck beacon, and did a reset.  But it would fail the
SC_OP_TSF_RESET check in ath_beacon_config_ap.  This patch gets the beacon
fully reconfigured after the reset.

The comment (which I remove) says that the translation is done SPI routines.
IMHO this can't work because the SPI driver does not know whether the incomming
bytes are part of the registers/bytes which need to be flipped or part of
packet data which has to remain untouched.
While adding le helpers I also removed spu_write_u32() which has no users.
