This should decrease un-necessary flushes, on/off channel work,
and channel changes in cases where the only scanned channel is
the current operating channel.
* Removes SCAN_OFF_CHANNEL flag, uses SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL
and is-scanning flags instead.
* Add helper method to determine if we are currently configured
for the operating channel.
* Do no blindly go off/on channel in work.c Instead, only call
appropriate on/off code when we really need to change channels.
Always enable offchannel-ps mode when starting work,
and disable it when we are done.
* Consolidate ieee80211_offchannel_stop_station and
ieee80211_offchannel_stop_beaconing, call it
ieee80211_offchannel_stop_vifs instead.
* Accept non-beacon frames when scanning on operating channel.
* Scan state machine optimized to minimize on/off channel
transitions. Also, when going on-channel, go ahead and
re-enable beaconing. We're going to be there for 200ms,
so seems like some useful beaconing could happen.
Always enable offchannel-ps mode when starting software
scan, and disable it when we are done.
* Grab local->mtx earlier in __ieee80211_scan_completed_finish
so that we are protected when calling hw_config(), etc.
* Pass probe-responses up the stack if scanning on local
channel, so that mlme can take a look.

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.

All register writes to the key cache have to be done in pairs. However,
the clearing of a separate MIC entry with hardware revisions that use
combined MIC key layout did not do that with one of the registers. Add
the matching register write to the following register to make the KEY4
register write actually complete.
This is mostly a fix for a theoretical issue since the incorrect entry
that could potentially be left behind in the key cache would not match
with received frames. Anyway, better make this code clean the entry
correctly using paired register writes.

While leaving oper channel, STA informs sleep state to AP to
stop sending data. Till sending ack for the nullfunc, AP
continues to send the data to STA which restarts ps_timer that
is causing unnecessary nullfunc exchange on timer expiry
when the STA was already moved to offchannel. So don't restart ps_timer
on data reception during scan. This issue was identified by
the following warning.

Device command timeouts are set up very high (1 sec) and this causes
AP beacon to lock up for long for example. Checking timeouts on device
it's easy to see that 1 sec timeout is not needed, when device fails
to response longer timeout doesn't help:

Beacon config function writes beacon to hw one write per byte. This is very
slow (usually taking more than 100ms to finish) and causes high CPU usage
when in AP-mode (kworker at ~50% on Intel Atom N270). By batching commands
together zd_mac_config_beacon() runtime can be lowered to 1/5th and lower
CPU usage to saner levels (<10% on Atom).

When doing tx/rx at high packet rate (for example simply using ping -f),
device starts to fail to respond to control messages. On non-AP modes
this only causes problems for LED updating code but when we are running
in AP-mode we are writing new beacon to HW usually every 100ms. Now if
control message fails in HW beacon setup, device lock is kept locked
and beacon data partially written. This can and usually does cause:
1. HW beacon setup fail now on, as driver cannot acquire device lock.
2. Beacon-done interrupt stop working as device has incomplete beacon.
Therefore make zd_mac_config_beacon() always try to release device lock
and add beacon watchdog to restart beaconing when stall is detected.
Also fix zd_mac_config_beacon() try acquiring device lock for max 500ms,
as what old code appeared to be trying to do using loop and msleep(1).

On review of 'zd1211rw: implement beacon fetching and handling
ieee80211_get_buffered_bc()', Christian Lamparter noted that [1]:
Since zd_beacon_done also uploads the next beacon so long in advance,
there could be an equally long race between the outdated state of the
next beacon's DTIM broadcast traffic indicator (802.11-2007 7.3.2.6)
which -in your case- was uploaded almost a beacon interval ago and
the xmit of ieee80211_get_buffered_bc *now*.
The dtim bc/mc bit might be not set, when a mc/bc arrived after the
beacon was uploaded, but before the "beacon done event" from the
hardware. So, dozing stations don't expect the broadcast traffic
and of course, they might miss it completely.
It's probably better to fix this in mac80211 (see the attached hack).

on monitor
For reasons not very clear yet to me, filter_ack leaves matching tx-packet
pending with 'ack_pending'. This causes tx-packet to be passed back to upper
layer after next packet has been transfered and tx-packets might end up
coming come out of monitor interface in wrong order vs. rx.
Because of this when enable AP-mode, hostapd monitor interface would get
packets in wrong order causing problems in WPA association.
So don't use mac->ack_pending when in AP-mode.

Vendor driver uses CR_BNC_INTERVAL at various places, one is HW_EnableBeacon()
that combinies beacon interval with BSS-type flag and DTIM value in upper 16bit
of u32. The other one is HW_UpdateBcnInterval() that set_aw_pt_bi()
appears to be based on. HW_UpdateBcnInterval() takes interval argument as u16
and uses that for calculations, set_aw_pt_bi() uses u32 value that has flags
and dtim in upper part. This clearly seems wrong. Also HW_UpdateBcnInterval()
updates only lower 16bit part of CR_BNC_INTERVAL. So make set_aw_pt_bi() do
calculations on only lower u16 part of s->beacon_interval.
Also set 32bit beacon interval register before reading values from device,
as HW_EnableBeacon() on vendor driver does. This is required to make beacon
work on AP-mode, simply reading and then writing updated values is not enough
at least with zd1211b.

When stress testing AP-mode I hit OOPS when unpluging or rmmodding
driver.
It appears that when tx-queue is disabled, tx-urbs might be left pending.
These can cause ehci to call non-existing tx_urb_complete() (after rmmod)
or uninitialized/reseted private structure (after disconnect()). Add skb
queue for submitted packets and unlink pending urbs on zd_usb_disable_tx().
Part of the problem seems to be usb->free_urb_list that isn't always
working as it should, causing machine freeze when trying to free the list
in zd_usb_disable_tx(). Caching free urbs isn't what other drivers seem
to be doing (usbnet for example) so strip free_usb_list.
Patch makes tx-urb handling saner with use of urb anchors.

Some experiment-based action to prevent my 8168 chipsets locking-up hard
in the irq handler under load (pktgen ~1Mpps). Apparently a reset is not
always mandatory (is it at all ?).
- RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12
- RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_25
Missed ~55% packets. Note:
- this is an old SiS 965L motherboard
- the 8168 chipset emits (lots of) control frames towards the sender
- RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_26
The chipset does not go into a frenzy of mac control pause when it
crashes yet but it can still be crashed. It needs more work.

As reported by Flavio Leitner, there is no synchronization to protect
NIU's get_stats method from seeing a NULL pointer in either
np->rx_rings or np->tx_rings. In fact, as far as ->ndo_get_stats
is concerned, these values are set completely asynchronously.
Flavio attempted to fix this using a RW semaphore, which in fact
works most of the time. However, dev_get_stats() can be invoked
from non-sleepable contexts in some cases, so this fix doesn't
work in all cases.
So instead, control the visibility of the np->{rx,tx}_ring pointers
when the device is being brough up, and use properties of the device
down sequence to our advantage.
In niu_get_stats(), return immediately if netif_running() is false.
The device shutdown sequence first marks the device as not running (by
clearing the __LINK_STATE_START bit), then it performans a
synchronize_rcu() (in dev_deactive_many()), and then finally it
invokes the driver ->ndo_stop() method.
This guarentees that all invocations of niu_get_stats() either see
netif_running() as false, or they see the channel pointers before
->ndo_stop() clears them out.
If netif_running() is true, protect against startup races by loading
the np->{rx,tx}_rings pointer into a local variable, and punting if
it is NULL. Use ACCESS_ONCE to prevent the compiler from reloading
the pointer on us.
Also, during open, control the order in which the pointers and the
ring counts become visible globally using SMP write memory barriers.
We make sure the np->num_{rx,tx}_rings value is stable and visible
before np->{rx,tx}_rings is.
Such visibility control is not necessary on the niu_free_channels()
side because of the RCU sequencing that happens during device down as
described above. We are always guarenteed that all niu_get_stats
calls are finished, or will see netif_running() false, by the time
->ndo_stop is invoked.

TKIP countermeasures depend on devices being able to detect Michael
MIC failures on received frames and for stations to report errors to
the AP. In order to test that behavior, it is useful to be able to
send out TKIP frames with incorrect Michael MIC. This testing behavior
has minimal effect on the TX path, so it can be added to mac80211 for
convenient use.
The interface for using this functionality is a file in mac80211
netdev debugfs (tkip_mic_test). Writing a MAC address to the file
makes mac80211 generate a dummy data frame that will be sent out using
invalid Michael MIC value. In AP mode, the address needs to be for one
of the associated stations or ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff to use a broadcast
frame. In station mode, the address can be anything, e.g., the current
BSSID. It should be noted that this functionality works correctly only
when associated and using TKIP.

The TKIP implementation was originally prepared to be a bit more
flexible in the way Michael MIC TX/RX keys are configured. However, we
are now taking care of the TX/RX MIC key swapping in user space, so
this code will not be needed. Similarly, there were some remaining WPA
testing code that won't be used in their current form. Remove the
unneeded extra complexity.

The beaconing vif addition is based on max beacon slot
available. So it is better to reserve a beacon slot
on interface addition and let it be configured properly
on bss_info change.

When operating in AP mode the wl1271 hardware filters out null-data
packets as well as management packets. This makes it impossible for
mac80211 to monitor the PS mode by using the PM bit of incoming frames.
Implement a HW flag to indicate that mac80211 should ignore the PM bit.
In addition, expose ieee80211_sta_ps_transition() to make low-level
drivers capable of controlling PS-mode.

When rate-control is performed in HW, we cannot calculate frame
duration as we do not have the skb transmission rate in SW.
ieee80211_tx_h_calculate_duration() should only be called when
ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl() has been called before to initialize data
in skb->cb. This doesn't happen for drivers with HW rate-control.
Fixes the following warning when operating in AP-mode
in a driver with HW rate-control.
