This patch handles a corner case where TX packet would remain in
driver queue till next packet comes in.
Here is sequence:
1. TX packet is queued via hard_start_xmit and main_work is queued
2. SDIO interrupt comes in which directly call mwifiex_main_process.
This starts executing main superloop.
3. Now work from step1 is scheduled but at first check itself it sees
mwifiex_processing is set and exits.
4. Now if superloop from step2 has passed TX processing part of superloop
this packet would remain in queue until next packet/command/SDIO interrupt
arrives and queues main_work.
This patch fixes this corner case by defining more_task flag which is set when
mwifiex_processing is found to be true. At end of superloop we again check if
more_task flag is set and if set, execute superloop again.

This patch adds auto TDLS support to mwifiex.
Auto TDLS functionality works as follows:
1. Whenever userspace application has triggered TDLS connection with
any peer, driver would store this peer mac address details in its database.
2. After this driver whenever driver receives packet on direct link,
it would store rssi and timestamp in peer information.
3. Whenever a packet is to be transmitted to non-AP peer in station mode,
driver would check if TDLS link can be established by looking at peer RSSI
information. Driver would initiate TDLS setup in such cases.
4. Periodic timer is used for updating peer information.
5. Auto TDLS peer list & timer are cleared during disconnection or driver unload.

On some platforms, system goes out of memory during heavy
Rx traffic with our USB chipsets.
In case of SDIO/PCIe, after receiving 50 packets in Rx queue
we stop processing interrupts till packets pending fall below
low threshold i.e 20. We don't have similar logic for USB,
so if host platform is slow, we would hit a case where firmware
keeps on pushing packets at high speed than driver/kernel can
process.
We will stop submitting URBs for Rx data when pending packet
count reaches high threshold and restart them when enough
packets are consumed to solve the problem.

During 11n RX reordering, if there is a hole in RX table,
driver will not send packets to kernel until the rxreorder
timer expires or the table is full.
However, currently driver always restarts rxreorder timer when
receiving a packet, which causes the timer hardly to expire.
So while connected with to 11n AP in a busy environment,
ping packets may get blocked for about 30 seconds.
This patch fixes this timer restarting by ensuring rxreorder timer
would only be restarted either timer is not set or start_win
has changed.
