+ * 4965 temperature calculation.
+ *
+ * The driver must calculate the device temperature before calculating
+ * a txpower setting (amplifier gain is temperature dependent). The
+ * calculation uses 4 measurements, 3 of which (R1, R2, R3) are calibration
+ * values used for the life of the driver, and one of which (R4) is the
+ * real-time temperature indicator.
+ *
+ * uCode provides all 4 values to the driver via the "initialize alive"
+ * notification (see struct iwl4965_init_alive_resp). After the runtime uCode
+ * image loads, uCode updates the R4 value via statistics notifications
+ * (see STATISTICS_NOTIFICATION), which occur after each received beacon
+ * when associated, or can be requested via REPLY_STATISTICS_CMD.
+ *
+ * NOTE: uCode provides the R4 value as a 23-bit signed value. Driver
+ * must sign-extend to 32 bits before applying formula below.
+ *
+ * Formula:
+ *
+ * degrees Kelvin = ((97 * 259 * (R4 - R2) / (R3 - R1)) / 100) + 8
+ *
+ * NOTE: The basic formula is 259 * (R4-R2) / (R3-R1). The 97/100 is
+ * an additional correction, which should be centered around 0 degrees
+ * Celsius (273 degrees Kelvin). The 8 (3 percent of 273) compensates for
+ * centering the 97/100 correction around 0 degrees K.
+ *
+ * Add 273 to Kelvin value to find degrees Celsius, for comparing current
+ * temperature with factory-measured temperatures when calculating txpower
+ * settings.
