when does ath5k filter frames?

Hi,

In mac80211 we have a whole bunch of cryptic code to handle "filtered"
frames. The only driver that does that seems to be ath5k, and it doesn't
really seem to use this since it is intimately tied to
IEEE80211_TXCTL_CLEAR_DST_MASK which it doesn't check...

Any ideas? Should we kill all this code and not use whatever hardware
powersave helpers atheros hardware might have?

On the other hand, Broadcom also has powersave helpers in
hardware/firmware, maybe we should generalise to be able to use them as
well?
