Amitkumar Karwar c4f3b9725e mwifiex: update BSS parameters in dump_station_info()
This enables user to check beacon interval, DTIM period, short slot
time and short preamble information using "iw dev mlan0 link" command
when station is in connected state.

Avinash Patil 2690e1bb35 mwifiex: pass priv pointer instead of adapter
Pass mwifiex_private pointer directly to wmm_add_buf_txqueue()
instead of passing adapter and then deriving priv again in
mwifiex_get_priv_by_id(). This reduces a 'for' loop in TX path.

Yogesh Ashok Powar f540f9f34b mwifiex: derive priv from net_device instead of wiphy
Currently mwifiex_private pointers are derived from wiphy
structures. This will always work as long as there is only
one net_device associated with one wiphy. In scenarios where
there are multiple net_devices associated with single
wiphy, one should use net_device to derive the priv.

Yogesh Ashok Powar 9da9a3b29b mwifiex: use bss_type and bss_num to retrieve priv
Current implementation, for retrieving priv from adapter,
uses bss_index. In multi interface environment supporting
different types, bss_index may not be unique.

Use bss_type along with bss_num to retrieve the priv.
bss_index is removed with this change.

Amitkumar Karwar b015dbc0f9 mwifiex: fix crash during simultaneous scan and connect
If 'iw connect' command is fired when driver is already busy in
serving 'iw scan' command, ssid specific scan operation for connect
is skipped. In this case cmd wait queue handler gets called with no
command in queue (i.e. adapter->cmd_queued = NULL).

This patch adds a NULL check in mwifiex_wait_queue_complete()
routine to fix crash observed during simultaneous scan and assoc
operations.

Amitkumar Karwar 3aebee028a mwifiex: fix issues in band configuration code
Currently due to following issues in the code even if device is
configured in B only, G only or BG mode using iw bitrates command,
ibss is getting created in BGN mode.

1) mwifiex_channels_to_cfg80211_channel_type() routine gives channel
type as NL80211_CHAN_HT20 for non-HT channel as well, because driver
doesn't store HT information provided by stack for the channel.
This issue is fixed by maintaining channel type information in
'adapter->channel_type'.
2) Band configuration is unnecessarily overwritten with BGN/AN while
setting channel.

This patch makes sure that "adapter->config_bands" correctly gets
modified while setting channel.

Amitkumar Karwar 38c9d6641f mwifiex: remove cfg_workqueue
cfg_workqueue was added to notify cfg80211 that scan, connect
or disconnect is done by calling respective completion handlers.
We can avoid use of this workqueue by calling those handlers
from other places.
1) Call connect, disconnect completion handlers in their callback
   functions.
   ex. Call cfg80211_connect_result() in mwifiex_cfg80211_connect()
2) Call scan completion handler after parsing response of last scan
   command in a queue.

After removing the workqueue, variables (assoc_request etc.) and
checks used for mutual exclusion become redundant. Those are also
removed in this patch.

Amitkumar Karwar f72fa45f7d mwifiex: remove unnecessary free_priv handler
Cfg80211 stack allocates private area for driver use in
struct cfg80211_bss. It will be freed by stack in bss_release().
Driver don't need to worry about it.

In mwifiex driver, we use the private area just to store band
information(u8). We don't allocate memory explicitly and store
it's pointer in bss->priv. Hence we don't have any cleanup work
to do in free_priv handler. Currently we try to free the allocated
private area in free_priv handler which is not correct.

This patch removes unnecessary free_priv handler.

Amitkumar Karwar efaaa8b841 mwifiex: use separate wait condition for each command node
Currently global wait condition (adapter->cmd_wait_q.condition)
is used while sending synchronous commands to FW. When two threads
enter in mwifiex_send_cmd_sync() routine at the same time, both the
threads wait for their command responses. Since wait condition is
same for both, they wake up simultaneously after getting response
of 1st command. After this when a thread is waiting for command
response of 3rd command, it wakes up after getting response of 2nd
command and so on. Therefore we don't wait for the response of last
command(0xaa) during unload. Hence while next time loading the driver
command time out is seen for INIT command.

This problem is resolved by having separate wait condition flag for
each command(except scan command). Since scan command is treated
differently (by maintaining scan pending q etc.), newly defined flag
(scan_wait_q_woken) is used as a scan wait condition.

Amitkumar Karwar 4ec6f9c0c9 mwifiex: fix Tx data rate display issue
"iw dev mlan0 link" shows wrong data rate, because data rate is
not sent properly to cfg80211 stack. Also stack is not updated
with mcs and Tx data flags information.

Amitkumar Karwar cbaaf592b7 mwifiex: remove unreachable code
In disconnected state "iw dev mlan0 link" command will return
from cfg80211 stack itself. We also have an error check in
mwifiex_cfg80211_get_station() routine. Therefore the code
under "if (!priv->media_connected)" condition in
mwifiex_rate_ioctl_get_rate_value() routine becomes unreachable.

An extra call to mwifiex_dump_station_info() routine in get_station
callback function is redundant

Amitkumar Karwar 5cf80993ad mwifiex: reset skb length before inserting to free queue
After handling command response, cmd skb is inserted into command
free queue(which keeps track of availabile skbs) for reuse purpose.
Skb length is not getting reset to zero here. This patch takes care
of it.

Amitkumar Karwar 4ed5d521b0 mwifiex: pass correct band parameter to ieee80211_channel_to_frequency()
ieee80211_channel_to_frequency() routine expects band parameter in
the form of "enum ieee80211_band band". Currently driver specific
band (BAND_A, BAND_AN etc.) is passed to the routine.

This patch makes sure that correct parameter is passed.

Amitkumar Karwar 5116f3cef2 mwifiex: update bss band information
In recent commit "mwifiex: use cfg80211 dynamic scan..."
(7c6fa2a843..) scan table handling in driver is removed to
make use of cfg80211 dynamic scan table. Now driver sends
beacon buffers found in scanning directly to stack and parse
the buffer for requested BSS only during association.

Beacon buffer doesn't contain bss band information. Driver
gets it from firmware in separate tlv (chan_band_tlv).
Currently since we don't inform stack about bss bandinfo,
there is an issue with 5GHz association.

Use "priv" field of struct cfg80211_bss to store bandinfo.
This fixes 5GHz association issue.
