Arik Nemtsov 097f882153 wl12xx: always initialize AP-mode max power level
Sometimes we only get the Tx power level via op->config when the FW is
off. Record the received power level when this happens and use it to
initialize the firmware during boot.

Arik Nemtsov 3618f30f30 wl12xx: AP mode - support FW TX inactivity triggers
In AP mode we register for the MAX_TX_RETRY and INACTIVE_STA events.
Both are reported to the upper layers as a TX failure in the offending

Ido Yariv 95dac04f88 wl12xx: Support routing FW logs to the host
A recently added feature to the firmware enables the driver to retrieve
firmware logs via the host bus (SDIO or SPI).

There are two modes of operation:
1. On-demand: The FW collects its log in an internal ring buffer. This
   buffer can later be read, for example, upon recovery.
2. Continuous: The FW pushes the FW logs as special packets in the RX
   path.

Reading the internal ring buffer does not involve the FW. Thus, as long
as the HW is not in ELP, it should be possible to read the logs, even if
the FW crashes.

A sysfs binary file named "fwlog" was added to support this feature,
letting a monitor process read the FW messages. The log is transferred
from the FW only when available, so the reading process might block.

Arik Nemtsov 70f474241b wl12xx: AP-mode - overhaul rate policy configuration
Use the minimal rate configured in the basic rates set as the AP
broadcast and multicast rate. The minimal rate is used to ensure weak
links can still communicate.

When the basic rates contains at least one OFDM rate, configure all
unicast TX rates to OFDM only.

Unify rate configuration on initialization and on change notification
into a single function.

Arik Nemtsov 5f704d180e wl12xx: use wiphy values for setting rts, frag thresholds on init
Use the wiphy RTS and fragmentation thresholds for initializing the FW
when possible. This mitigates a bug where previously set values are
forgotten after interface down/up.

Add checks before settings these values to ensure they are valid. Use
default values when invalid thresholds are configured.

Update the default RTS threshold to the maximum value given by the
specification.

Arik Nemtsov 47684808fd wl12xx: support FW TX inactivity triggers
In AP mode we register for the MAX_TX_RETRY and INACTIVE_STA events.
Both are reported to the upper layers as a TX failure in the offending
stations.

In STA mode we register only for the MAX_TX_RETRY event. A TX failure is
interpreted as a loss of connection.

Support for IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS has been removed to avoid
the inherent race condition of a mac80211 TX failure counter in addition
to the FW counter.

This patch depends on "mac80211: allow low level driver to report packet
loss"

Ido Yariv 0da13da767 wl12xx: Clean up the block size alignment code
Simplify and clean up the block size alignment code:
1. Set the block size according to the padding field type, as it cannot
   exceed the maximum value this field can hold.
2. Move the alignment code into a function instead of duplicating it in
   multiple places.
3. In the current implementation, the block_size member can be
   misleading because a zero value actually means that there's no need to
   align. Declare a block size alignment quirk instead.

Guy Eilam ea559b4605 wl1271: fixed problem with WPS IEs in probe requests
Inclusion of a WPS IE in probe requests caused a problem
in the driver due to the maximum size of the probe request
template and the max_scan_ie_len values at initialization.

Increased the size of probe request template
to the maximum size allowed by the firmware.
Struct wl12xx_probe_req_template, which was only used
for calculating the max size of the probe request template,
is no longer used and needed.

max_scan_ie_len is used for validating the size of
additional IEs in scan requests.
Initialized the max_scan_ie_len field to the maximum size
of the probe request template minus the ieee80211 header size.
