This allows to test fw restart flow. The hook in transport
layer doesn't really make the fw assert. Moving this hook
to the op_mode allows to use the fw API to actually send a
host command that will make the fw assert.
Change the restart_fw module parameter to be a boolean on
the way.

When BT traffic load gets higher, we want to avoid using the

When modifying a MAC, we update its beacon system time which
is taken as a base to calculate TBTT. The firmware doesn't use
the new timestamp because the time is never used after the MAC
and broadcast station were added, but it is safer to not rely
on this and avoids the overhead of reading the register every
time the MAC is updated.

Newer devices can work on different buses. This means that
their configuration can be shared between different buses.
Hence the configuration structures should exported to all
the buses and not only to PCIE. Change this.
Note that this requires all the fields to be the same
amongst the buses. If differences will appear, we can always
define a part that is bus dependent. Today, this is not

With remote wake, the firmware creates a TCP connection
and sends some configurable data on it, until a special
TCP data packet from the server is received that triggers
a wakeup. The configuration is a bit tricky because it is
based on packet pattern matching but this is hidden in
the driver and the exposed API in cfg80211 is just based
on the required TCP connection parameters.

mac80211 tells us when we need to dump the frames from the
AGG queue instead of releasing them as single MPDUs.
Being able to differentiate between the different cases
(IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_*) allows us to handle races better.
When the station is removed, mac80211 asks to flush and
removes the station right away.
This allows to avoid a case where we still have frames in
AGG queues, but the station has been remove already.
Note that we can have frames on the shared queues, but this
is not a problem: the station in the fw will be kept until
all the frames on the shared queues have been drained.
AGG queues are a special case since they are dynamically
allocated.

There's a bug that causes the rate scaling to get stuck
when it has to use single-stream rates with a peer that
can do GF and SGI; the two are incompatible so we can't
use them together, but that causes the algorithm to not
work at all, it always rejects updates.
Disable greenfield for now to prevent that problem. The
MVM driver currently only works on devices that don't
support greenfield anyway, but better be safe and not
allow us to forget about this.

When we stop an AGG session, we need to look at the sequence
numbers in in the private area of the ieee80211_sta struct.
This allows us to know is the queue is empty. To get access
to this private area, we use fw_id_to_mac_id that maps
sta_id (index of the STA in fw table) to ieee80211_sta.
When the STA exists in fw, but not in mac80211, we set
an ERR ptr in fw_id_to_mac_id.
But if we first set an ERR ptr to fw_id_to_mac_id, and only
then flush the queues, then we won't be able to access the
sequence numbers in ieee80211_sta from the reclaim flow.
This means that we will never be able to release an AGG
queue when a station is deleted.
So first, flush the queue. That will let the reclaim flow
call iwl_mvm_check_ratid_empty which will disable the AGG
queue as needed, and only then, remove the mapping in
fw_id_to_mac_id.

This patch improves the way minstrel sorts rates according to throughput
and success probability. 3 FOR-loops across the entire rate set in function
minstrel_update_stats() which where used to determine the fastest, second
fastest and most robust rate are reduced to 1 FOR-loop.
The sorted list of rates according throughput is extended to the best four
rates as we need them in upcoming joint rate and power control. The sorting
is done via the new function minstrel_sort_best_tp_rates().
The most robust rate selection is aligned with minstrel_ht's approach.
Once any success probability is above 95% the one with the highest
throughput is chosen as most robust rate. If success probabilities of all
rates are below 95%, the rate with the highest succ. prob. is elected as
most robust one

While minstrel bootstraps and fills the success probabilities of each
rate the lowest rate has typically a very high success probability
(often 100% in our tests).
Its statistics are never updated but considered to setup the mrr chain.
In our tests we see that especially the 3rd mrr stage (which is that
rate providing highest success probability) is filled with the lowest rate
because its initial high sucess probability is never updated. By design
the 4th mrr stage is filled with the lowest rate so often 3rd and 4th
mrr stage are equal.
This patch follows minstrels general approach of assuming as little
as possible about rate dependencies. Consequently we include the
lowest rate into the random sampling table to get balanced up-to-date
statistics of all rates and therefore balanced decisions.

Minstrel's decision which rate should be directly sampled within the
1st mrr stage is limited to such rates faster than the current max
throughput rate. All rates below the current max. throughput rate
are indirectly sampled via the 2nd mrr stage.
This approach leads to deprecated per rate statistics and therfore
a deprecated mrr chain setup.
This patch uses the sampling approach from minstrel_ht. A counter is
added to sum all indirect sample attempts per rate. After 20 indirect
sampling attempts the rate is directly sampled within the 1st mrr stage.
Therefore more up-to-date statistics for all rates are maintained and
used to setup the mrr chain.

Implement restricting peer VHT capabilities to the device's own
capabilities. This is useful when a single driver supports more
than one device and the devices have different capabilities
(often they will differ in the number of spatial streams), but
in particular is also necessary for VHT capability overrides to
work correctly -- otherwise it'd be possible to e.g. advertise,
due to overrides, that TX-STBC is not supported, but then still
use it to TX to the AP because it supports RX-STBC.

HT capabilites are asymmetric -- e.g. beamforming is both an
RX and TX capability. If, for example, we support RX but not
TX, the RX capability of the AP station is masked out (if it
supports it). This works correctly if it's really the driver
capability.
If, on the other hand, the reason for not supporting TX BF
is that it was removed by HT capability overrides then the
wrong thing happens: the AP's TX capability will be removed
rather than its RX capability, because the override function
works on own capabilities, not remote ones, and doesn't take
the asymmetry into account.
To fix this make a copy of our own capabilities, apply the
overrides to them (where needed) and then use that to set up
the peer's capabilities.
