Emmanuel Grumbach cf6142975b iwlwifi: consolidate the start_device flow
Now there is only one transport function that launch a specific fw:
trans_ops->start_fw. This one replaces trans_ops->start_device and
trans_ops->kick_nic. The code that actually loads the fw to the
device has been moved to the transport specific code.

Emmanuel Grumbach 1ba42da479 iwlwifi: we can wake SW queues even when draining HW queues
In the very first implementation of HT, the driver was responsible
for the queueing: stopping and waking the queues while the HW queues
where being drained. In this implementation, we had to deal with the
case where we were draining the AGG queue because we wanted to tear
down the BA agreement.
In the normal flow (when we don't drain any HW queue), when packets
are reclaimed, we wake the SW queue in case the SW queue was stopped
which can happen when the HW queues are too full.
While draining a HW queue, we must make sure that we don't wake the
SW queue, since the whole point of the draining is to empty totally
the HW queue and not only get below a certain threshold.
This is why there is condition in the reclaim function:

if (NOT EMPTYING DELBA)
	wake the SW queue is applicable

Since then, a lot has changed and mac80211 is now able to buffer
packets that are being sent to a packet list that will be spliced
after the driver has reported it has drained its HW queues.
Hence, there is no need for the for aforementioned if, and we can
safely wake up the queue even if we are draining HW queues.
Removing this if, also allows us to remove the wake_queue in
check_empty that was there in order to deal with a corner case
created by the if.

Emmanuel Grumbach eb9a372a73 iwlwifi: don't count the tfds in HW queue any more
Since packets sent to an RA / TID in AGG are sent from a
separate HW Tx queue, we may get into a race:
the regular queue isn't empty while we already begin to
send packets from the AGG queue. This would result in sending
packets out of order.

In order to cope with this, mac80211 waits until the driver
reports that the legacy queue is drained before it can send
packets to the AGG queue. During that time, mac80211 buffers
packets for the driver. These packets will be sent in order
after the driver reports it is ready.

The way this was implemented in the driver is as follows:
We held a counter that monitors the number of packets for
an RA / TID in the HW queues. When this counter reached 0,
we knew that the HW queues were drained and we reported to
mac80211 that were ready to proceed.

This patch changes the implementation described above. We
now remember what is the wifi sequence number of the first
packet that will be sent in the AGG queue (lets' call it
ssn). When we reclaim the packet before ssn, we know that
the queue is drained, and we are ready to proceed.

This will allow us to move this logic in the upper layer and
eventually remove the tid_data from the shared area.

Emmanuel Grumbach 43e5885658 iwlwifi: avoid a panic when unloading the module with RF Kill
When HW RF kill switch is set to kill the radio, our NIC issues an
interrupt after we stop the APM module. When we unload the module,
the driver disables and cleans the interrupts before stopping the
APM. So we have a real interrupt (inta not zero) pending.
When this interrupts pops up the tasklet has already been killed
and we crash.

Here is a logical description of the flow:

disable and clean interrupts
synchronize interrupts
kill the tasklet

stop the APM <<== creates an RF kill interrupt

free_irq <<== somehow our ISR is called here and we crash

Here is the panic message:

Emmanuel Grumbach 984ecb9293 iwlagn: fix a race in the unmapping of the TFDs
While inspecting the code, I saw that iwl_tx_queue_unmap modifies
the read pointer of the Tx queue without taking any locks. This means
that it can race with the reclaim flow. This can possibly lead to
a DMA warning complaining that we unmap the same buffer twice.

This is more a W/A than a fix since it is really weird to take
sta_lock inside iwl_tx_queue_unmap, but it can help until we revamp
the locking model in the transport layer.

Johannes Berg d36120c625 iwlagn: stop interrupts when suspending
Occasionally, the device will send interrupts
while it is resuming, at a point where we are
not set up again to handle them. This causes
the core IRQ handling to completely disable
the IRQ, and then the driver won't work again
until it is reloaded/rebound.

To fix this issue disable the IRQ on suspend,
this will cause us to only get interrupts
again after we've setup everything on resume.

Johannes Berg 164ae97eb5 iwlagn: don't assign seqno to QoS Null frames
802.11 says:
"Sequence numbers for QoS (+)Null frames may be
set to any value."

However, if we use the normal counters then peers
will get confused with aggregation since there'll
be holes in the sequence number sequence.

To avoid that, don't assign sequence numbers to
QoS Null frames.

Emmanuel Grumbach 02dc84fe18 iwlagn: set the sequence control from the transport layer
Since all the queue logic has been moved to the transport layer,
the sequence number is set in the transport layer.
While doing that I forgot that the mac header is copied to the
TB of the TX cmd in the upper layer before the call to the transport
layer. So basically we used the sequence number from mac80211...
This was fine for the first assocation but after the second, mac80211
resets its counters while we don't hence a shift that led to terrible
impact on performance.

Emmanuel Grumbach 08ecf10441 iwlagn: pending frames musn't be incremented if agg is on
During my works on the transport layer I removed code that updated
a local variable (is_agg) that is needed to keep the pending_frames
count up to date. Fix this.

Also, there should be no way to have a packet with TX_CTL_AMPDU set
while the internal aggregation state machine is not in AGG_ON state.
Add a WARN_ON to ensure that.

This simplifies both the transport layer and the upper layer.

Kill the union in the device command, which avoids the funny syntax
we had: cmd->cmd.payload.
