It has been observed that system hangs during suspend, if host
sleep activation fails due to a missing interrupt from firmware.
Use timeout variant, so that the thread will be woken up when

Some stations reset the sequence number for traffic-ids (TIDs)
as they initiate a block-ACK session. In order to detect such
behavior, mwifiex must note the starting sequence number given
during the ADDBA request. If the first received sequence number
after the ADDBA falls outside the receive window for this TID but
after the the ADDBA starting sequence number, we can assume that
this AP has reset its sequence number during the ADDBA. In this
case we must adjust the input window backward to incorporate this
received sequence number instead of ignoring it. Otherwise, we
could fail to successfully retrieve an arbitrarily large number
of downstream frames at the beginning of the block-ACK session.

While framing the TDLS Setup Confirmation frame, the driver needs to
know if the TDLS peer is VHT/HT/WMM capable and thus shall construct
the VHT/HT operation / WMM parameter elements accordingly. Supplicant
determines if the TDLS peer is VHT/HT/WMM capable based on the
presence of the respective IEs in the received TDLS Setup Response frame.
The host driver should not need to parse the received TDLS Response
frame and thus, should be able to rely on the supplicant to indicate
the capability of the peer through additional flags while transmitting
the TDLS Setup Confirmation frame through tdls_mgmt operations.

peer station may be buffered at AP. It may happen that once TDLS
link is setup, packets sent from station to peer on direct link
get delivered before traffic from AP arrives at peer station.
This results into packet reordering issue at peer station.
To avoid this, we hold data packets destined to TDLS peer during

Upon successful TDLS setup, they are moved to RA list created for
this peer. Upon failure, packets are moved back to AP's RA list
