On x86/64 this results in code that's one byte larger (for me), but reduces struct link_ant and struct link size by the two unsigned long values that store the parameters each.

To best support the set_antenna callback some modifications are needed in the diversity handling. We should never look at the default antenna settings to determine if software diversity is enabled. Instead we should set the diversity flag when possible, which will allow the link_tuner to automatically pick up the tuning.

Currently we are approaching the maximum number of bits which are available in the field. A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others the non-atomic variants are used. By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically. In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically. This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.
