Juuso Oikarinen 8c7f4f3166 wl1271: Fix work cancelling when shutting down the driver
The work cancelling has had several hazards, ranging from potentially
executing work after the driver is in OFF state, to executing work after
the driver and relevant memory structures are already removed.

Fix these.

Luciano Coelho 08688d6b1a wl1271: rewritten scanning code
This patch is a complete rewrite of the scanning code.  It now includes a
state machine to scan all four possible sets of channels independently:
2.4GHz active, 2.4GHz passive, 5GHz active and 5GHz passive.  The wl1271
firmware doesn't allow these sets to be mixed, so up to several scan commands
have to be issued.  This patch also allows scanning more than 24 channels per
set, by breaking the sets into smaller parts if needed (the firmware can scan
a maximum of 24 channels at a time).

Previously, the scanning code was erroneously scanning all channels possible
actively, not complying with the CRDA values.  This is also fixed with this
patch.

Luciano Coelho 34dd2aaac4 wl1271: moved scan operations to a separate file
The scanning code is going to get a bit more complex, with proper support for
active/passive scans together with 2.4GHz and 5GHz.  In the future, also a
new type of scan (periodic scan) will be added.  When all this is
implemented, the code is going to be much more complex, so we'd better
separate it into a separate file.

This patch doesn't have any impact on functionality.

Juuso Oikarinen 90494a90be wl1271: Work around AP's with broken ps-poll functionality
Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll
functionality. When powersave is enabled, these AP's will set the TIM bit for
a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not
respond with data.

The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this
problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables
power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever
data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time.

This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the
chances of inbound data getting through.

The side effect of this patch is increased power consumption when using a
faulty AP.

BSS_LOST_EVENT is received. Reason for the change is that entering PSM
might fail before driver receives BSS_LOST_EVENT. In such case the
driver would disable PSM and the stack would not be notified about beacon
loss and connection loss detection would be delayed by tens of seconds.

Juuso Oikarinen d8c42c0c28 wl1271: Fix PSM entry
Currently the PSM entry function assumes successful operation, and enables
ELP, BET and beacon filtering right away. This is bad, because the PSM
entry may fail due to environmental issues, which will cause the ELP, BET and
beacon filtering to be illegally enabled (because FW remains in active state.)

Fix this by enabling ELP, BET and beacon filtering only after successful entry,
and by ensuring the firmware is in active mode after the failure.

Luciano Coelho d0f63b2021 wl1271: fix endianess issues
We were not handling endianess correctly.  The wl1271 chip runs on
little-endian values.  This patch makes sure that all the communication with
the wl1271 firmware is done in little-endian by using cpu_to_le* and
le*_to_cpu where appropriate.

Also, all the struct definitions for data exchanged with the firmware has
been changed to use __le16/32 types instead of u16/32.

This fixes a few sparse warnings, such as these:
