This patch simplifies the flush op and reuses ath_drain_all_txq for
flushing out pending frames if necessary. It also uses a global timeout
of 200ms instead of the per-queue 60ms timeout.

The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).
Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.
Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

When op_flush() is called with no drop (drop=false), the driver
tries to tx as many frames as possible in about 100ms on every
hw queue. During this time period frames from sw queue are also
scheduled on to respective hw queue.

The DMA latency issue is observed only in Intel pinetrail platforms
but in the driver we had a default PM-QOS value of 55. This caused
unnecessary power consumption and battery drain in other platforms.
Remove the pm-qos thing in the driver code and address the throughput
issue in Intel pinetrail platfroms in user space using any one of
the scripts in below links:

ath9k: remove bfs_paprd_timestamp from struct ath_buf_state
Under high interference/noisy environment conditions where PAPRD frames
fails heavily introduces a possibility of double freeing skb's and causes
kernel panic after some time.This patch reverts back to the original approach
of using paprd_timestamp before freeing the PAPRD frame skb's

Since even with the latest changes the false positive issue of the baseband
hang check is not fully solved yet, additional checks are needed.
If the baseband hang occurs, the rx_clear signal will be stuck to high, so
we can use the cycle counters to confirm it.
With this patch, a hardware reset is only triggered if the baseband hang
check returned true three times in a row, with a beacon interval between
each check and if the busy time was also 99% or more during the check
intervals.

While unloading the driver, the ps_usecount is incremented
before configuring gpio registers in deinit_device.
But it is failed to restore the ps_usecount after that.
The problem is that the chip is forcibly moved to FULL SLEEP
by radio_disable when mac80211 is reporting as idle
though ps_usecount is not zero.
This patch retores ps_usecount properly and ensures that
the chip is always moved to full sleep only if ps usage
count is zero which also helps in debugging deadbeef on
multivif case. And also fixes the following warning.
ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0xdeadbeef AR_DIAG_SW=0xdeadbeef
ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we
start RX up

There are several places where ath_reset() was called without proper
calls to ath9k_ps_wakeup/ath9k_ps_restore. To fix this, add those calls
directly to ath_reset and drop them from callers where it makes sense.
Also add them to the config callback around ath_update_txpow to fix a
crash that happens when the tx power changed before any vif is brought up.

With this change, less CPU time is spent trying to look for consecutive
pages for rx skbs. This also reduces the socket memory required for IP/UDP
reassembly.
Only two buffers per frame are supported. Frames spanning more buffers
will be dropped, but the buffer size is enough to handle the required
AMSDU size.

Instead of spreading ath_wake_mac80211_queue() calls over multiple places
in the tx path that process the tx queue for completion, call it only
where the pending frames counter gets decremented, eliminating some
redundant checks.
To prevent queue draining from waking the queues prematurely (e.g. during
a hardware reset), reset the queue stop state when draining all queues,
as the caller in main.c will run ieee80211_wake_queues(hw) anyway.

The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.
In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.
Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!

When using a mixture of AP and Station interfaces,
the hardware mode was using the type of the
last VIF registered. Instead, we should keep track
of the number of different types of vifs and set the
mode accordingly.
In addtion, use the vif type instead of hardware opmode
when dealing with beacons.
Attempt to move some of the common setup code into smaller
methods so we can re-use it when changing vif mode as
well as adding/deleting vifs.

Since baseband hangs are rare, but the hang check function has a high
false positive rate in some situations, we need to add more reliable
indicators.
In AP mode we can use blocked beacon transmissions as an indicator,
they should be rare enough.
In station mode, we can skip the hang check entirely, since a true
hang will trigger beacon loss detection, and mac80211 will rescan,
which leads to a hw reset that will bring the hardware back to life.
To make this more reliable, we need to skip fast channel changes
if the hardware appears to be stuck.

ath9k supports its own set of virtual wiphys, and it uses
the mac80211 idle notifications to know when a device needs
to be idle or not. We recently changed ath9k to force idle
on driver stop() and on resume but forgot to take into account
ath9k's own virtual wiphy idle states. These are used internally
by ath9k to check if the device's radio should be powered down
on each idle call. Without this change its possible that the
device could have been forced off but the virtual wiphy idle
was left on.

Restricting the chainmask to 1 for legacy mode disables useful features
such as MRC, and it reduces the available transmit power.
I can't think of a good reason to do this in legacy mode, so let's just
get rid of that code.

This patch allows the pm-qos value to be user configurable by making it as
a module parameter.This will help our customers to configure the pm-qos
value according to the effect in throughput due to the DMA latency problem
which was observed in Intel Pinetrail platforms.
The tested value of '55' will be filled as the default
pm-qos-value incase the user does not specifies pm-qos value as a
module parameter.
example usage: sudo modprobe ath9k pmqos=65

The EEPROM contains scale factors for the tx power, which define
the range of allowable difference between target power and training
power. If the difference is too big, PA predistortion cannot be used.
For 2.4 GHz there is only one scale factor, for 5 GHz there are
three, depending on the specific frequency range.

To be able to measure the thermal values correctly for PAPRD, we need
to send training frames before setting up the gain table for the measurement,
and then again afterwards for the actual training.
For further improvement, send training frames at MCS0 instead of 54 MBit/s
legacy. That way we can use the No-ACK flag for the transmission, which
speeds up PAPRD training in general, as the hardware won't have to
retransmit and wait for ACK timeout (was previously set to 4 * 6
transmission attempts).

mac80211 will notify drivers when to go idle and ath9k
assumed that it would get further notifications for idle
states after a device stop() config call but as per agreed
semantics the idle state of the radio is left up to driver
after mac80211 issues the stop() callback. The driver is
resposnbile for ensuring the device remains idle after
that even between suspend / resume calls.
This fixes suspend/resume when you issue suspend and resume
twice on ath9k when ath9k_stop() was already called. We need
to put the radio to full sleep in order for resume to work
correctly.
What might seem fishy is we are turning the radio off
after resume. The reason why we do this is because we know
we should not have anything enabled after a mac80211 tells
us to stop(), if we resume and never get a start() we won't
get another stop() by mac80211 so to be safe always bring
the 802.11 device with the radio disabled after resume,
this ensures that if we suspend we already have the radio
disabled and only a start() will ever trigger it on.

Upon a failure we never call ath9k_ps_restore() on ath_radio_enable(),
this will throw off the sc->ps_usecount. When the sc->ps_usecount
is > 0 we never put the chip to full sleep. This drains battery,
and will also make the chip fail upon resume with:
ath: Starting driver with initial channel: 5745 MHz
ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x7000: 0xdeadbeef & 0x00000003 != 0x00000000
This would make the chip useless upon resume.
I cannot prove this can happen but in theory it is so best to
avoid this race completely and not have users complain about
a broken device after resume.
