When a station entry is removed, there could still be
pending packets destined for that station in the HIF layer.
Sending these to the target is not necessary, so drain them
in the driver itself.

When doing a channel set or a reset operation the pending
frames queued up for transmission have to be flushed and
sent to mac80211. Fixing this has to be done in two separate
steps:
* Flush queued frames and kill the URB TX completion handler.
* Complete all the frames that in the TX pending queue.
This patch adds proper support for draining and all the callsites
namely, channel change/reset/idle/stop are fixed. A separate queue
is used for handling failed frames.

A new routine that takes an endpoint explicitly is
introduced. The normal htc_send() now retrieves the endpoint
from the packet's private data. This would be useful
in TX completion when the endpoint ID would be required.
While at it, use a helper function to map the queue to endpoint.
Data/mgmt/beacon packets use htc_send(), while WMI comamnds
pass the endpoint to HTC.

For all packets sent through the USB_WLAN_TX_PIPE endpoint,
the private area of the SKB's tx_info can be used to store
driver-specific information. For packets sent through USB_REG_OUT_PIPE,
this will not make a difference since they are routed through a
separate routine that doesn't access the private region.
This would help in situations where TX information is required
in the URB callback.

Use a queue to handle WMI events and schedule a tasklet
to process the events. This fixes the race between the
WMI event ISR and the SWBA tasklet when the arrival of
WMI events in quick succession could overwrite the SWBA
data before the tasklet from a previous iteration could
have been scheduled. Also, drain the WMI queue properly.

The noise floor history buffer is currently not kept per channel, which
can lead to problems when changing channels from a clean channel to a
noisy one. Also when switching from HT20 to HT40, the noise floor
history buffer is full of measurements, but none of them contain data
for the extension channel, which it needs quite a bit of time to recover
from.
This patch puts all the per-channel calibration data into a single data
structure, and gives the the driver control over whether that is used
per-channel or even not used for some channels.
For ath9k_htc, I decided to keep this per-channel in order to avoid
creating regressions.
For ath9k, the data is kept only for the operating channel, which saves
some space. ath9k_hw takes care of wiping old data when the operating
channel or its channel flags change.
