wil6210: work around for platforms with broken INTx
There are platforms where INTx can't be routed by ACPI,
this leads to pci_enable_device failure. Re-try pretending we have
MSI already configured; in this case pci_enable_device do not try
to configure INTx. However, MSI could still work.

On Tx path, when vring for the destination not found,
it was considered as error and message was printed unconditionally.
However, this situation is normal after disconnect. If disconnect was while
heavy traffic load, lots of Tx packets will be dropped and this would
cause significant amount of prints in dmesg.
Demote messages priority from 'error' to 'debug'.

For performance monitoring, trace time intervals when Tx vring
is idle/not idle. Use CPU cycle counter for this, because jiffies is
too rough, and other precise time measurement methods involve
overhead while get_cycles() should be fast.
This used to provide some estimation for percentage when Tx vring
was idle, i.e. when hardware is under-utilized.
Estimation is not precise because of many reasons - CPU frequency scaling,
grt_cycles() may be per core etc. But still, it is good estimation

rtl818x_pci: fix possible RX descriptor invalid data read
RX descriptor data must be read only if the descriptor has been fully
updated by HW.
There is a "ownership" flag in the descriptor itself to test this.
The driver code contains a read for the "ownership" flag and, after
it, other read access for descriptor data.
This is in DMA coherent memory, that is _not_ guaranteed to be immune
to instruction reordering, thus it is possible that the descriptor
data is read _before_ the "ownership" flag.
This can theoretically lead to a DMA/CPU race that may end up with the
driver reading the data when it is still not valid, and the "ownership"
bit just after enough time that the HW make the whole descriptor valid.
The driver will in this case believe the data is valid, but it will use
the invalid data read earlier.
In order to avoid this, this patch adds a rmb() to force the "ownership"
bit read to be issued before other descriptor data reads are attempted.

rtl818x_pci: provide dBm signal information for rtl8185
This patch makes the driver report signal information for rtl8185
boards using dBm instead of unspecified unit.
Rtl8180 remains untouched.
I did some tests to confirm the correctness of the measure performed
by the board and it seems reasonably correct.
The test setup has been made by connecting an AP with coax and
RF attenuators to the card antenna port.
In order to get a reference measure I tried with several cards with
different chipset I own. I found that many gave different results, and
I finally selected two cards that gave me consistent results to use
as reference: AR9271 and Prism54-usb (isl3887 with Frisbee radio).
Using this references I compared the RSSI information with my rtl8185
and I repeated tests with three different attenuation values, increasing
attenuation by 10dB each step.
I made only relative measures, making NO assumption about source power.
CCK measures seem very close to my references, OFDM are a little bit
less precise but, considering that these cards are not measuring
instrumentation, IMHO this is still fairly good.
