The device has three extra LEDs which indicate the quality
of the wireless link. Thanks to rssileds, this feature now
works out of the box.

This patch improves support for the device considerably.
1. The wifi didn't work in the initial release. This was because
the WMAC of the AR9340 is not connected to the antennas.
(However, it can pick up wifi signals, if they are strong enough!)
Instead there's a dedicated AR9300 chip on the same board, which
works.
2. Ethernet throughput is improved. iperf shows that the hardware
can sustain more than 200Mbit/s and no longer drops any packages
when the link is under load.

The F1E Phy (AR8035?) requires additional bits to be
set in order to provide a fast and reliable connection
over gigabit links.
When enabled, the link doesn't suffer anymore from a small
package loss under load and the performance is improved
quite a bit as well. (203 mbit/s vs 112 mbit/s, iperf tcp).

This patch fixes the NAPI poll mechanism in the GIANFAR ethernet driver, which
was not properly working since Linus Kernel Version 3,8.
Therefore the workaround patch to downgrade the GIANFAR ethernet driver to
Kernelversion v3.8 is obsoete.
This patch was extensivly testes with different network loads and types of
traffic. There is quite a substantial user base that reports proper Ethernet
function with TPlink-4900. This patch is based on the fixes from GINAFAR
maintainer Claudiu Manoli.
