The channel values used by firmware is handled using conversion functions
depending on the type of chip. These functions were already in place but
lacked proper support for 80MHz channel definitions. This patch adds the
support for that.

In the .start_ap callback cfg80211_get_chandef_type() was used to
provide debug log info. However, this causes a warning when the
chandef contains VHT channel with 80MHz bandwidth. Avoid the warning
by just printing the channel and bandwidth instead.

The DISASSOC command needs to be sent to firmware when a connection
loss is detected by firmware (e.g., beacon timeout). Otherwise the
next connect request fails due to a lingering LINK(down) event from
firmware. This patch resolves the issue by using brcmf_link_down()
handler, instead of the incomplete duplicated codes.

FWS is always queuing frames and using a worker for de-queueing,
this is not always efficient for all bus layer. For example SDIO
has an internal queue and worker making the queueing of FWS
unnecessary. Make it possible to bypass the worker if fws mode
is none using a bus interface configuration. For USB bus layer
this configuration is set true to have fws provide queueing
regardless the fws mode.

When a BSS provides both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, in many cases it
makes sense to choose 5GHz. Typically a 5GHz channel is less crowded
and has less interference and therefore its performance will be
better than a crowded 2.4 GHz channel. This patch configures
'join_pref' to induce firmware to preferably select 5GHz BSS.

In case RFKILL is in KILL position, the NIC will issue an
interrupt straight away. This interrupt won't be sent
because it is masked in the hardware.
But if our interrupt service routine is called for another
reason (SHARED_IRQ), then we'll look at the interrupt cause
and service it. This can cause bad things if we are not
ready yet.
Explicitly clean the interrupt cause register to make sure
we won't service anything before we are ready to.
