Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan 94ae77ea46 ath9k: Fix BTCOEX timer triggering comparision
Its more correct to convert btcoex_period to 'us' while
comparing with btcoex_no_stomp which is in 'us'.
Did not find any functionality issues being fixed,
as the generic hardware timer triggers are usually
refreshed with the newer duty cycle.

Thomas Huehn 36323f817a mac80211: move TX station pointer and restructure TX
Remove the control.sta pointer from ieee80211_tx_info to free up
sufficient space in the TX skb control buffer for the upcoming
Transmit Power Control (TPC).
Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct
that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.

Rajkumar Manoharan 124b979bae ath9k: Fix race in reset-work usage
Using work_pending() to defer certain operations when
a HW-reset work has been queued is racy since the check
would return false when the work item is actually in
execution. Use SC_OP_HW_RESET instead to fix this race.
Also, unify the reset debug statistics maintenance.

Felix Fietkau aa5955c36f ath9k: fix aggregate size limit based on queue TXOP limit
If the aggregate size exceeds the TXOP limit, it leads to lots of unnecessary
hardware and software retries.

The previous 4ms frame limit table was completely undocumented, the commit
that updated it only vaguely referenced and equation from the standard,
but I've been unable to replicate its results.

Fix this by using a formula based on the code in ath_pkt_duration, which is
more likely to be correct for this case.

Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan b11e640aef ath9k: Add WoW related mac80211 callbacks
add suspend/resume/set_wakeup callbacks to the driver

*suspend

- bail out only if all the conditions for configuring WoW.
  is fine, currently multivif case is not handled
- check for associated state.
- map wow triggers from user space data.
- add deauth/disassoc pattern and user defined pattern,
  for the later a list is maintained.
- store the interrupt mask before suspend, enabled beacon
  miss interrupt for WoW.
- configure WoW in the hardware by calling ath9k_hw_wow_enable.

*resume

- restore the interrupts based on the interrupt mask
  stored before suspend.
- call ath9k_hw_wow_wakeup to configure/restore the hardware.
- after wow wakeup clear away WoW events and query the
  WoW wakeup reason from the status register

*set_wakeup

- to call 'device_set_wakeup_enable' from cfg80211/mac80211
  when wow is configured and as per Rafael/Johannnes the
  right way to do so rather in the driver suspend/resume
  call back

Sven Eckelmann 313eb87f1e ath9k: raise aggregation limit to 64k for HT IBSS
mac80211 adds stations in HT IBSS as soon as a frame comes by,
even if the HT capabilities are not known yet (they are often
received later, e.g. in beacons). So far, ampdu factor/density
are only calculated when the station is initially added.

This patch changes this to update ampdu factor/density settings
when starting a blockack session.

Using this patch, we had performance boosts from 60 to 150 MBit/s
between two 2x2 Atheros devices in 5 GHz HT IBSS mode.

Rajkumar Manoharan 6995fb805e ath9k: improve BT FTP/PAN performance
When BT FTP/PAN transmits while WLAN is idle, the one of 9462 chain
often picks up BT's tx signal and starts receiving. If the current
weight is set to be higher than BT tx, BT tx will be aborted and this
also degrades BT performance. Hence lower WLAN rx priority in this
case only when there are no WLAN traffic.

Rajkumar Manoharan 01e189182d ath9k: recover ar9380 chips from rare stuck state
In the experiment with Azimuth ADEPT-n testbed where the APs transmit
power was reduced to 25% and the signal strength was futher attenuated
by 20dB and induced a path loss of ~7dB, the station was reporting
beacon losses and the following issue were observed.

* rx clear is stuck at low for more than 300ms
* dcu chain and complete state is stuck at one of the hang signature

This patch triggers the hang detection logic that recovers the chip
from any of the above conditions. As the issue was originally reported
in ChromeOs with AR9382 chips, this detection logic is enabled only for
AR9380/2 chips.
