Sometimes, due to the race between Rx path and WMI_BA_STATUS_EVENTID WMI event,
few frames may be passed to the stack before reorder buffer allocated.
Then, after BACK establishment, it start getting frames with sequence number ahead of
SSN, and it get interpreted as missing frames. Then, BACK mechanism will wait
for missing frames; data traffic will be stopped. In case of interface configured
for DHCP, this data delay causes DHCP failure.
Relax checking for sequence number; use sequence of 1-st frame handled by the buffer
as SSN for this buffer.
This is work-around, real fix should be done when proper BACK mechanism implemented.

HW should never attempt to perform DMA for unused queues.
For rtl8187se this is ensured by setting a dedicated register at
init time, before enabling TX.
In rtl8180/5 the register is only written at the first TX (because
in rtl8180/5 it serves also to kick DMA for used queues).
This should be enough, but it's worth to add a register write at
init time, before enabling TX.

When preparing the bitfield to write to HW register, the high-priority

TX-OK interrupt is not enabled.
Currently this have no functional impact because the high-priority

This patch removes high-priority queue bits and it adds the
beacon queue missing bit.
It removes also the management queue bits because it is not used.

This patch enables Energy Based Scan (EBS) - intended to detect energy
on 5 GHz band channels. Passive scan on this band takes up to 2.64 sec
assuming 110mSec per-channel * 24 channels. EBS is designed to detect
energy on channels with intensive Wifi activity as well as those where
only beacons are transmitted. EBS completes sampling all channels within
shortest beacon frame transmission time. Total EBS duration is about 100
msec (typical beacon interval).
Detecting Wifi activity on 5 GHz band channels can significantly reduce
scan duration thus saving time and power. EBS failure reported by FW
disables EBS for current connection. It is re-enabled upon new
connection attempt on any WLAN interface.

Allow switching back to legacy Tx columns so we'll stop doing

making a deciding to stay in a legacy column.
Despite having low legacy rates in the LQ table lower entries
it doesn't help much in case we're doing aggregations as the
aggregation was being transmitted in the initial rate of the table.
This should help traffic stalls when far from the AP.

After being idle for a long time (>5sec) the rs statistics
will be stale so we prefer to reset rs and start from legacy
rates again. This gives better results when the attenuation
increased signficantly (e.g. we got further from the AP) and
after a while we start Tx
Note that the first Tx after the idle period will still go out
in the old modulation and rate but this seemed a simpler approach
compared to adding a timer or modifying mac80211 for this.
The negative impact is negligble as we'll recover quickly.
