We miss to wakeup main thread after adding command to cmd pending

1) We don't wakeup main thread when asynchronous command is added

a) request from user (ex. "iw scan" command)
b) Scan performed by driver internally.
In first case main thread is woken up when first scan command is

subsequent scan commands, because they are queued in scan command
response handler), but it is not done for second case. queue_work()

wl12xx_sdio_power_off() manually powers down the card regardless of the

As part of the HW detection, the chip's power is toggled. Since this
happens in the context of probing sdio, the power reference counter will
be higher than zero. As a result, when wl12xx_sdio_power_off() is

power reference counter. If the interface is quickly activated, the
driver might try to transfer data to a powered off chip.
Fix this by ensuring that wl12xx_sdio_power_on() explicitly powers on
the chip in case runtime pm claims the chip is already powered on. To
avoid cases in which it is not possible to determine if the chip was
really powered on (card's power reference counter is positive), operate
on the mmc_card instead of the function.
Also verify that the chip is indeed powered on before powering off, to

wlcore: read FW logs from FW memory on watchdog recovery
FW uses a few memory blocks as a buffer to accumulate FW logs before
transmitting them to the host over SDIO. When FW WatchDog recovery
occurs, the last FW traces are still pending in the buffer. Driver is
to read these FW traces whether log mode is continuous or on demand.
FW memory blocks allocated for the log buffer are handled as a link list:
the first 4 bytes in each memory block contain FW address to the next block.
The end of list condition depends on FW log mode:
- on demand: the list is cyclic, the next address is equal to the first address
- continuous: the address is equal to 0x2000000
Log data resides inside FW memory block with offset depending on
logger mode:
- on demand: 4 bytes (address of the next memory block)
- continuous: 4 bytes and Rx Descriptor structure size

Reporting incorrect noise, results in the wpa_supplicant

wlcore: allow setting sleep_auth before interface init
Hold a value for sta_sleep_auth that is amenable to change by debugfs.
When detecting a legal value in this variable on interface init, use it
as an override value for sleep_auth.
This makes debugging more intuitive using the debugfs value.
Increment the conf version since we added an element to the conf
structure.
Note: An AP going up will always set sleep_auth to PSM_CAM.

For FW debugging purposes, we may need to change the sleep mode

Now we store the sleep_auth value that has been set and use that

iwlwifi: limit mac_change_interface to BSS context
Currently when mac80211 asks to change the interface
type, we will accept it for both the BSS and PAN
contexts. This is not terribly complicated today,
but with the addition of the P2P Device abstraction
the PAN context handling will get more complex, so
restrict mac_change_interface to the BSS context.
Also fix a small locking issue and use is_active
instead of the vif pointer to check if the other
context is activated, guarding exclusive interface
types on the BSS context (IBSS) against the PAN
context being used for something else.

iwlwifi: fix radio reset scan dwell vs. quiet time
My previous commit to shorten the radio reset time
caused issues as the firmware checks the active
dwell time against the quiet time, asserting that
the dwell is >= quiet time. This isn't really
needed in case of passive scanning like here, but
of course we need to pass that check.
To fix this, override the quiet time to be the
same as the radio reset dwell time.

WLAN driver initialization is muting BT which is terminating
the ongoing BT traffic. The reason to mute BT is to avoid any
incoming MCI messages from BT when MCI reset is in progress that
could corrupt WLAN MCI RX state machine. But we should not
dedicate radio completely to WLAN in driver init itself. So this
patch removes the wlan weightage changes from mute BT to retain
BT connection.

This driver has a hack in cmd.c which effectively disables all filtering.
This seems to be triggering a firmware bug where it stops reporting any
rx packets after random time on some routers, which is eliminated (or at
least appears much more rarely) when filtering is on.
I have found that only BSSID filter needs to be disabled for association
to work, so disable only that instead of all filtering.
