This patch reduces the usage of the write channel's static cmd buffers, by dynamically allocating all simple IPA cmds (eg. STARTLAN, SETVMAC). It also converts the OSN path. Doing so requires some changes to how we calculate the cmd length. Currently when building IPA cmds, we're quite generous in how much data we send down to the device (basically the size of the biggest cmd we know). This is no real concern at the moment, since the static cmd buffers are backed with zeroed pages. But for dynamic allocations, the exact length matters. So this patch also adds the needed length calculations to each cmd path. Commands that have multiple subtypes (eg. SETADP) of differing length will be converted with follow-up patches.
