Emmanuel Grumbach 205e2210da iwlwifi: disable TX AMPDU by default for iwldvm
NICs supported by iwldvm don't handle well TX AMPDU.
Disable it by default, still leave the possibility to
the user to force enable it with a debug parameter.

NICs supported by iwlmvm don't suffer from the same issue,
leave TX AMPDU enabled by default for these.

Emmanuel Grumbach c512865446 iwlwifi: mvm: don't allow A band if SKU forbids it
The driver wasn't reading the NVM properly. While this
didn't lead to any issue until now, it seems that there
is an old version of the NVM in the wild.
In this version, the A band channels appear to be valid
but the SKU capabilities (another field of the NVM) says
that A band isn't supported at all.
With this specific version of the NVM, the driver would
think that A band is supported while the HW / firmware
don't. This leads to asserts.

Emmanuel Grumbach 9bb0c1adc5 iwlwifi: mvm: don't leak a station when we drain
We had a bug that prevented us from removing a station
after we entered the drain flow:

We assign sta to be NULL if it was an error value.
Then we tested it against -EBUSY, but forget to retrieve
the value again from mvm->fw_id_to_mac_id[sta_id].

Due to this bug, we ended up never removing the STA from
the firmware. This led to an firmware assert when we remove
the GO vif.

Johannes Berg 0822afe8eb iwlwifi: mvm: disable scheduled scan
The iwlwifi scheduled scan implementation doesn't adhere to the
userspace API correctly - the API assumes that any new incoming
'incompatible' request (like scan or remain-on-channel for this
driver) will just cancel the scheduled scan. Instead our driver
relies on userspace cancelling it, thus breaking existing wpa_s
versions.

Emmanuel Grumbach 23e76d1a51 iwlwifi: pcie: don't panic on host commands in iwldvm
None of the devices supported by iwldvm have support for
shadow registers. This means that we wake the NIC
when we increment the write pointer on Tx ring.
This happened even before my bad commit mentionned below.
Since my commit below, we wake up the NIC when we put a
host command on the ring regardless of shadow register
support. This means that in iwldvm (when the NIC doesn't
support shadow register), we wake up the NIC twice:

pcie_enqueue_hcmd:
	wake up the NIC
	iwl_pcie_txq_inc_wr_ptr:
		wake up the NIC - no shadow reg support

Since waking up the NIC means that we need to acquire a
spinlock, this obviously leads to a recursive spinlock
and hence a freeze.

Emmanuel Grumbach 2d93aee152 iwlwifi: pcie: enable oscillator for L1 exit
Enabling the oscillator consumes slightly more power (100uA)
but allows to make sure that we exit from L1 on time.

Not doing so might lead to a PCIe specification violation
since we might wake up from L1 at the wrong time.
This issue has been identified on 3160 and 7260 only.
On older NICs L1 off is not enabled, on newer NICs (7265),
the issue is fixed.

When the bug occurs the user sees that the NIC has
disappeared from the PCI bridge, any access to the device
returns 0xff.

Emmanuel Grumbach 2775613f4f iwlwifi: mvm: don't set the drain bit when we flush the AP station
When we disassociate in managed mode, we flush the queues
after mac80211 has already removed the station.
During that time, the pointer to ieee80211_sta to the
fw_id_to_mac_id map is -EINVAL. In that case we should not
set the station as being drained when the last Tx of this
station has exited the shared Tx queue since we are
flushing all the queues anyway.
The draining logic is meant to be used in GO / AP mode only.
In GO / AP mode, we set -EBUSY in the fw_id_to_mac_id map.

This is why testing the ieee80211_sta pointer in the
fw_id_to_mac_id map with IS_ERR isn't enough to set the
station as draining, we need to check that it is -EBUSY.

The only impact of the bug was a print:

Drained sta 1, but it is internal?

Emmanuel Grumbach 3dc3374fce iwlwifi: pcie: don't update the op_mode if rfkill hasn't changed
This is useless and introduces a dependency between rfkill
and stop_device - the op_mode can't call stop_device from
the rfkill notification since it would lead to an endless
recursion.
Next patches will need to do so.

Emmanuel Grumbach b943949105 iwlwifi: pcie: keep the NIC awake when commands are in flight
Under very specific circumstances, the firmware might
ignore a host command. This was debugged and we ended up
seeing that the power management hardware was faulty.
In order to workaround this issue, we keep the NIC awake
as long as we have host commands in flight. This will avoid
to put the hardware into buggy condition.
