mac80211: add improved HW queue control
mac80211 currently only supports one hardware queue
per AC. This is already problematic for off-channel
uses since if we go off channel while the BE queue
is full and then try to send an off-channel frame
the frame will never go out. This will become worse
when we support multi-channel since then a queue on
one channel might be full, but we have to stop the
software queue for all channels. That is obviously
not desirable.
To address this problem allow drivers to register
more hardware queues, and allow them to map them to
virtual interfaces. When they stop a hardware queue
the corresponding AC software queues on the correct
interfaces will be stopped as well. Additionally,
there's an off-channel queue to solve that problem
and a per-interface after-DTIM beacon queue. This
allows drivers to manage software queues closer to
how the hardware works.

This patch adds MBSS extensible synchronization framework (Sec.
13.13.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-2012).
The framework is implemented via an ops table which defines the
following functions:
rx_bcn_presp() - this is called every time a mesh beacon is
received.
adjust_tbtt() - this is called immediately before a beacon is about
to be transmitted.
The default neighbor offset synchronization defined in the standard is
implemented. We also provide template functions for vendor specific
methods.
When neighbor offset synchronization is active (which is the default)
mesh neighbors in the same MBSS will track timing offsets to each other
and compensate clock drift.
In our tests we observed that this mesh synchronization implementation
successfully corrected drifts between stations of ~2PPM while
introducing a jitter of ~20us.
It is also possible to test this framework on mac80211_hwsim simulated

mac80211: set HT channel before association
Changing the channel type during operation is
confusing to some drivers and will be hard to
handle in multi-channel scenarios. Instead of
changing the channel, set it to the right HT
channel before authenticating/associating and
don't change it -- just update the 20/40 MHz
restrictions in rate control as needed when
changed by the AP.
This also fixes a problem that Paul missed in
his fix for the "regulatory makes us deaf"
issue -- when we couldn't use 40 MHz we still
associated saying we were using 40 MHz, which
could in similarly broken APs make us never
even connect successfully.

mwifiex: don't use IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES
IEEE80211_MAX_QUEUES is an internal mac80211 value,
it is not guaranteed to be always 4. The firmware
API in mwifiex almost certainly doesn't care about
mac80211 changing though, so mwifiex shouldn't use
this value.
Maybe it should use IEEE80211_NUM_ACS instead and
that is what I'm doing here as at least that value
will probably never change, but maybe it should
have its own define instead.

Not all devices are really capable of implementing
remain-on-channel, even if it is implemented in SW,
as they can't necessarily deal with channel changes
while associated.
Remove the WIPHY_FLAG_HAS_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL and add
it only if either the driver has remain_on_channel
implemented in the driver/device.
Also add it to all drivers that advertise P2P right
now since those definitely have to have it working.

rtlwifi: Add missing DMA buffer unmapping for PCI drivers
In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42976, a system with driver
rtl8192se used as an AP suffers from "Out of SW-IOMMU space" errors. These
are caused by the DMA buffers used for beacons never being unmapped.

iwlwifi: move ucode error log reporting to op_mode
Error log reporting does not belong to the
transport layer, but to the op_mode loading
the ucode, as it is the entity which knows
about the ucode loaded, and what the error
information means.
Move device logging pointers from the
transport layer to op_mode.
With this change, transport layer only
reports an error to the op_mode, which will
figure out what to do with the error. This
causes the driver to now dump out error logs
when the command queue is stuck as well.
Also, move the debugfs entry for event logs
out of the transport layer and into op_mode.
