We use a long timeout (2 seconds) when sending commands to the FW.
When a command times out, it means the FW is stuck, and we should
commence recovery.
This should make recovery times shorter as we'll recover on the first
timeout indication.
wl12xx: use wiphy values for setting rts, frag thresholds on init
Use the wiphy RTS and fragmentation thresholds for initializing the FW
when possible. This mitigates a bug where previously set values are
forgotten after interface down/up.
Add checks before settings these values to ensure they are valid. Use
default values when invalid thresholds are configured.
Update the default RTS threshold to the maximum value given by the
specification.
The FW can dynamically manage its internal TX & RX memory pools, moving
blocks from one pool to another when necessary. This can significantly
improve performance. Currently this feature is enabled only for 128x.
Enable dynamic memory for 127x as well. Other parameters in the memory
configuration structure may need to be fine tuned, as the optimal values
for these may change once dynamic memory is enabled.
wl12xx: Restart TX when TX descriptors are available
The driver stops sending TX packets when either there aren't enough
memory blocks, or it runs out of TX descriptors. The driver continues to
send packets to the FW only when more memory blocks are available.
The FW might free TX descriptors without freeing the corresponding
memory blocks, especially when dynamic memory is enabled. In cases where
memory blocks are not freed at all, the driver will keep waiting for
more memory blocks indefinitely.
Fix this by clearing the WL1271_FLAG_FW_TX_BUSY flag when there are
available TX descriptors.
The 128x/AP firmware does not yet support dynamic memory. Temporarily,
the memory configuration for the 127x was used both for 127x/AP as well
as 128x/AP. Since the two chips don't have the same number of memory
blocks, TP was significantly degraded.
This hasn't been fine tuned yet, but using the base 128x numbers
(without dynamic memory) seems to yield much better results (around 30%
more). Additional fine tuning will be required in the future.

Instead, configure the firmware to use the whole 11b rates by default.
wl12xx: avoid redundant join on interface reconfiguration
ieee80211_reconfig() sets most of the "changed" flags regardless
of the actual change (e.g. BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC will be set even if
the interface is still not associated). in this case the driver
will issue some unneeded commands.
Since the driver relies solely on the BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC flag,
without checking if there was an actual change, it will end up
issuing unjoin() and dummy_join() commands, although it was
never associated and should just remain idle.
Avoid it by checking the actual state change, in addition to the
"changed" flag.
(there seem to be more redundant configuration commands being
issued, but they shouldn't harm)

mwl8k: Reducing extra_tx_headroom for tx optimization in AP mode
The tx_headroom required for mwl8k driver is 32 bytes and it
can use the space for 802.11 header received from mac80211.
mwl8k considers the smallest 802.11 frame (CTS2self of 10
bytes) that can be received from mac80211 to compute the
extra_tx_headroom as 22 (32 - 10) bytes.
When the wireless interface is part of bridge, this
extra_tx_headroom requirement results in a memcpy in
mac80211 (in function pskb_expand_head) for all the data
frames needing L2 forwarding/bridging, when NET_SKB_PAD is
defined as 32. This patch reduces the extra_tx_headroom by
8 bytes so that memcpy of data frames in mac80211 is
avoided in this case.
The resize will be required in driver for frames with 802.11
header size of less than 18 bytes.
