Split tx_queue_count to count per-AC skb's queued, instead of relying on
the skb-queue len. The skb queues used were only valid in STA-mode, as
AP-mode uses per-link queues.
This fixes a major regression in AP-mode, caused by the patch
"wl12xx: implement Tx watermarks per AC". With that patch applied, we
effectively had no regulation of Tx queues in AP-mode. Therefore a
sustained high rate of Tx could cause exhaustion of the skb memory pool.

A recently added feature to the firmware enables the driver to retrieve
firmware logs via the host bus (SDIO or SPI).
There are two modes of operation:
1. On-demand: The FW collects its log in an internal ring buffer. This
buffer can later be read, for example, upon recovery.
2. Continuous: The FW pushes the FW logs as special packets in the RX
path.
Reading the internal ring buffer does not involve the FW. Thus, as long
as the HW is not in ELP, it should be possible to read the logs, even if
the FW crashes.
A sysfs binary file named "fwlog" was added to support this feature,
letting a monitor process read the FW messages. The log is transferred
from the FW only when available, so the reading process might block.

Some platforms are incapable of triggering on level interrupts. Add a
platform quirks member in the platform data structure, as well as an
edge interrupt quirk which can be set on such platforms.
When the interrupt is requested with IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING, IRQF_ONESHOT
cannot be used, as we might miss interrupts that occur after the FW
status is cleared and before the threaded interrupt handler exits.
Moreover, when IRQF_ONESHOT is not set, iterating more than once in the
threaded interrupt handler introduces a few race conditions between this
handler and the hardirq handler. Currently this is worked around by
limiting the loop to one iteration only. This workaround has an impact
on performance. To remove to this restriction, the race conditions will

The current implementation allocates a skb each time one is requested by
the firmware. Since dummy packets are handled differently than regular
packets, the skb needs to be marked. Currently, this is done by
setting the pkt_type member to 5. This might not be safe, as we cannot
be sure that there won't be any other packets with this pkt_type value.
Since the packet does not change from one request to another, we can
simply allocate a dummy packet template and always send it. All changes
to the skb done during packet preparation must be reverted, so the same
skb can be reused.
The dummy packets are not transmitted, therefore there's no need to set
the BSSID or our own MAC address.
In addition, the header portion of the packet was zeroed by mistake, so
fix that as well.

To achieve maximal throughput, it is very important to react to
interrupts as soon as possible. Currently the interrupt handler wakes up
a worker for handling interrupts in process context. A cleaner and more
efficient design would be to request a threaded interrupt handler. This
handler's priority is very high, and can do blocking operations such as
SDIO/SPI transactions.
Some work can be deferred, mostly calls to mac80211 APIs
(ieee80211_rx_ni and ieee80211_tx_status). By deferring such work to a
different worker, we can keep the irq handler thread more I/O
responsive. In addition, on multi-core systems the two threads can be
scheduled on different cores, which will improve overall performance.
The use of WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_PENDING & WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_RUNNING was
changed. For simplicity, always query the FW for more pending
interrupts. Since there are relatively long bursts of interrupts, the
extra FW status read overhead is negligible. In addition, this enables
registering the IRQ handler with the ONESHOT option.
