Beacon transmission needs to involve as little latency
as possible after receiving a SWBA event from the target.
Since packets are buffered to use TX stream mode, beacon
frames sometimes gets queued up and are not sent out immediately.
Fix this by decoupling management frame transmission from the
normal data path and send them out immediately.

When doing a channel set or a reset operation the pending
frames queued up for transmission have to be flushed and
sent to mac80211. Fixing this has to be done in two separate
steps:
* Flush queued frames and kill the URB TX completion handler.
* Complete all the frames that in the TX pending queue.
This patch adds proper support for draining and all the callsites
namely, channel change/reset/idle/stop are fixed. A separate queue
is used for handling failed frames.

For all packets sent through the USB_WLAN_TX_PIPE endpoint,
the private area of the SKB's tx_info can be used to store
driver-specific information. For packets sent through USB_REG_OUT_PIPE,
this will not make a difference since they are routed through a
separate routine that doesn't access the private region.
This would help in situations where TX information is required
in the URB callback.

can be handled within the driver itself.
Also, AR7010 refers to the processor used in both AR9280/AR9287 based

Since the endpoint descriptors (EP3 & EP4) were changed from Interrupt
to Bulk type by firmware, the urb submission done on Bulk pipes.
And the recent commit "check the endpoint type against the pipe type"

So bmAttribute has to be updated for both EP3 & EP4 before submitting
urbs on that pipe. This patch resolves the following failure.

To optimize register read/write operations, the HTC firmwares were patched
to change EP3 and EP4 pipe types from Interrupt to Bulk. So register writes

register reads considerably which results in reduced scan time and CPU
