iwlagn: Enable/disable PS poll based on RSSI and BT coex traffic state
WiFi throughput drops drastically when BT is turned on, BT and WiFi
are simultaneously transmitting/receiving traffic. This is particularly true
when BT has higher priority over WiFi, and hence the device defers TX frames.
The AP assumes that the channel is bad and reduces the data rate, implying
longer airtime, which exacerbates the problem further, resulting ultimately
in what is popularly called the "death-spiral" phenomenon. The use of PS-poll
in such scenarios guarantees a low but consistent throughput.
Since the death-spiral phenomenon is observed only when the RSSI is low, use
PS-poll only when RSSI is low and disable when high, with a known hysterisis.
This feature specifies the high and low thresholds and implements the
callbacks registered with mac80211, which will be called when threshold events
occur.

mac80211: fix TKIP races, make API easier to use
Our current TKIP code races against itself on TX
since we can process multiple packets at the same
time on different ACs, but they all share the TX
context for TKIP. This can lead to bad IVs etc.
Also, the crypto offload helper code just obtains
the P1K/P2K from the cache, and can update it as
well, but there's no guarantee that packets are
really processed in order.
To fix these issues, first introduce a spinlock
that will protect the IV16/IV32 values in the TX
context. This first step makes sure that we don't
assign the same IV multiple times or get confused
in other ways.
Secondly, change the way the P1K cache works. I
add a field "p1k_iv32" that stores the value of
the IV32 when the P1K was last recomputed, and
if different from the last time, then a new P1K
is recomputed. This can cause the P1K computation
to flip back and forth if packets are processed
out of order. All this also happens under the new
spinlock.
Finally, because there are argument differences,
split up the ieee80211_get_tkip_key() API into
ieee80211_get_tkip_p1k() and ieee80211_get_tkip_p2k()
and give them the correct arguments.

Within the socket layer, an skb that does not fit in the socket

checking the validity of the packet's TKIP IV
